What About the Money?

Yesterday was a Black Tuesday. Lehman Bros. crashed, and then AIG began crashing, and I need to look up what is going to happen to Merrill Lynch, and the money pundits were talking about Morgan Stanley being in big trouble, and I need to look into my Money websites to see what is going on. Are we heading toward another 1929? Gas is going back up at Quick Trip, and I noticed some 4 dollar bread at Hy Vee. And the Russian stock market crashed and has been closed for 2 days. Much much more money news to try to get into my head, but this is just a very short summary. The latest giggle news from the campaign is that Sarah when governor of Alaska bought(why is bought spelled with a gh?) herself a tanning bed. And a guy in a political blog I read called her Saraccuda Mooselini. Kinda clever; I am not a total devotee of the lady for various reasons. Someone's pet tiger was spotted on Galveston roaming loose trying to get something to eat. Everything in the Houston area is a mess, or reported as such; no food, no electricity, no water. Back on the financial crisis; I assume that the big money guys in NYC who screwed up their companies are old enough now(of my age) to have been Masters of the Universe yuppie MBAs 30 years ago, and look at how they ran High Finance. Limbaugh and the pundits this afternoon are holding that so many companies are wanting govt. bailouts that we are seeing the coming of Socialist Finance--the govt. controlling the financial markets. That is probably poor wording of what I am trying to say. On another topic, I have found Google Earth, and am now on a kick of finding the satellite views of places all over the world that I assume I will never visit in reality. Some really great overhead views of some cities, and some that are not that clear to see, but an education in human living. A lot of cities seem to consist of a city center, a residential area of jammed together blocks of hovels, a lake for city water, and soccer fields. I will probably blog more on googleearth in upcoming blogs. A new hobby I need to not get so obsessed with that I cannot get out into the open and out of my room. This is going to be all for right now. You take care. Di di mau!
