There are people following the stock market fluctuations who have no idea how it works and why it's a mess. It's a daily pasttime now. You cringe when you see the "red" numbers and wonder if we are all going to be living in cardboard boxes like in Slumdog Millionaire. Everyone is looking for some comfort. The President's speech offered some hope. It was impressive. I need to buy a newspaper today. That should kill 20 minutes..
I miss my NY Times..As informed as I try to be, I think my main interest was the NYT crossword puzzle.. It was always easy on Mondays giving you a false sense of accomplishment and prepared for the challenging work week.."hey, I'm going to kick some ass today..I did the puzzle in 12 minutes." By Friday the degree of difficulty had increased significantly and that 12-minute task was now an all-day affair. Today is a Wednesday so I'll go get the paper, give the puzzle a shot and only feel mildly stupid.
