the news tells me every morning that things are bad. i've been considering panicking and downsizing in my personal life to reflect national trends. as for the panic, i tried to do the dishes with an attitude of irrational fear, but i'm afraid i wasn't able to do it. dried milk cannot be removed in haste. i did the dishes in my usual manner. to downsize, i told the cat that i was no longer able to keep her on the payroll. in response, she batted a plant and went to sleep. once again i am no good at following national fashion.
i looked closely at my own economic indicators and came to a different conclusion than the news does every morning.
1 it is cold outside, yet warm inside. good.
2. i saved $1.69 because the quicky mart was out of the pink sobe. good.
3. i am able to watch the justice league on my tv. good.
4. i have a wife who buys me dinner and drinks at the minnow. good.
5. the bag of baked cheetos in the kitchen is 4/5 full. good.
6. i got to hold a little girl named reagan makepeace who called me grampa with her eyes. great.

The news in my town is telling me that we are in the grip of a flu virus.
They are warning us that a hospital ward has closed and that you should only go outside if you really really need to.
Apparently I live in "Scaremongertown" where the world is gripped by a deadly virus that makes you vomit for about a day and then have a sore throat. But you best stay inside just incase you mutate into some flesh eating zombie or a cyborg tooled up with a pump action laser gun comes along and murders you.
Congrats to Mercedes and Nick...a very cute pic...
A new baby in the family - how cool is that?!?!?! Congrats to Mercedes, Nick and everyone else there.
