Okay... I had to go look and see where you are from and I guess you are right about that...

I was through there a few years back in August and it was some hot.....Hard to breath for this Northern gal.....

Well, that is good news and can see why you would be in a good mood....biggrin

The job situation (loss/lack) has hit hard all over the place....
I count my blessings to be working in this small community that I live in...I know people that have owned their own businesses here that are now working at the Shell station or at Wally-world trying to make ends meet...

I have a small business in mining and explorations that is on hold for now due to the economy...

There are 3 working claims that kept me out in the wilderness for the summer, away from the hustle and bustle...I still have the claims and go out and do the little bit that is required by law each year to keep them but for now they are just hobby claims...

Maybe by next year I can get back out there full time...Here's hoping...drinker

they must have done ok for you before the economy fell apart
its surprising, most people think its our economy that fell apart but if you look its a global event

It sure is a global event...

It was evident (to me) 5 years ago when I was over in Europe selling some of my art work...People would tell me that they liked my work but were too afraid to spend that kind of money for something that they didn't really need....They said that hard times were ahead and that it would take a long while to recover...

Looks like they were right...

Anyway, if we keep this kind of talk up they will move this to the politics forums and then I really will have a blockade to get through when I come to visit the Man room...winking

I loved how they shut the stores down about 2pm for an afternoon break...
I really saw this in a little place called La Spezia (sp) in Italy...
I was strolling in the market place buying the nights dinner and all of a sudden the shutters were drawn on the stores and people just started filing out into the square for a sit down and a chat...
Of course it didn't take me long to get into the swing of that...biggrin

yes mam
its great!!!
the land of no screens and straight door knobs
where beer and wine are delivered to your house!!!!
turn the heater on before you do dishes or take a shower
look over and see a dog lying by a table in a resturant
ride a train that gets you there on time
