The people that still have jobs are still spending money. The people who don't have jobs are buying coffee at McDonald's.

I wonder how hard the retail sector will get hit over the holidays.

Sell those retail stocks!

Speaking of coffee, does anyone know anything about a company called Boca Java? The wife got me some coffees from there, but I'm not sure what their business is like.

The Nikkei was down another 11% last night, which means it is likely that we will have another day of FALLING POWER LEVELZ

Where is bread 29 cents per loaf?  I want to be living in that economy with my current salary.  Them dumb starbucks bitches don't know what the fuck they are talking about.  If I had 17 friends, I'd fucking smash them if it meant I could get 29 cent bread.  They're probably the reason America blows ass.

I just hope corn and dairy prices remain high. I can always plop a trailer on 30 acres of Ohio land and start a farm. Sleeping with my cousins and livestock seems a lot more appealing than begging my wife for handjobs.
