HOWARD’S DAILY CHRONICLE
NUMBER 29 VOL 14
MONDAY SEPTEMBER 29TH 2008
WEATHER; WARM, MED HUMIDITY, 58/86 DEGREES
LOCAL GAS PRICES .37- .40 CENTS BELOW NATIONAL AVERAGE OF $3.66 PER GAL. OF REGULAR UNLEADED!
I’M STILL PUTTING UP WITH THE PAIN ON MY TAIL BONE! WE TRIED HOT/COLD COMPRESSES BUT IT DIDN’T HELP! MOM HAD TO GO IN TO TOWN AND PICK UP SOME PRESCRIPTIONS FOR KYLIE THEN TO HELP SHANNON GET A SHOWER BEFORE HER DOCTORS APPOINTMENT! SHE JUST GOT HOME EXHAUSTED, ITS 6:20PM SHE LEFT AT ABOUT 10:30 AM!
I’M WONDERING WHAT THE POLITICIANS ARE GOING TO DO ABOUT THE “BAILOUT” THE HOUSE REPUBLICANS VOTED DOWN 2-1! PRESIDENT BUSH CAN’T SEEM TO GET HIS PARTY IN LINE FROM THE LOOKS OF IT! THE CONGRESS AND SENATE SHUT DOWN FOR “PASSOVER” AT SUN DOWN TODAY AND WILL RECONVIEN ON THURSDAY!
YOU TALK ABOUT “FINGER POINTING”, NOBODY WANTS TO TAKE THE BLAME! THE DOW FELL 500 POINTS IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE VOTE TALLY WAS GIVEN AND CLOSED AT --777.68 POINTS, THE LOWEST IN THE HISTORY OF THE STOCK MARKET! THE PREVIOUS LOW WAS ON THE 17TH OF SEPTEMBER WHEN THE MARKET REOPENED AFTER 9/11! AT THAT TIME IT FELL TO –724 BUT RECOVERED FAIRLY FAST!
IF THEY DON’T PASS SOME KIND OF LEGISLATION TO PROTECT THE “MIDDLE CLASS” SOON IT COULD GET REAL STICKY! FOR NOW IT WON’T HURT THE AFFLUANT (WEALTHY) BUT IT WON’T TAKE LONG TO START EATING AWAY AT THEIR RESERVES! FROM WHAT I’VE SEEN IN THE PAST FEW DAY THE REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ARE WORKING ACROSS PARTY LINES TO SOLVE THIS VERY BAD PROBLEM! FOREIGN BANKS ARE FAILING AND THE STOCK MARKETS OF CHINA, JAPAN, FRANCE AND ENGLAND ARE IN DANGER OF COLLAPSING! RIGHT NOW THIS ECONOMY IS DRAGGING ECONOMIES AROUND THE WORD DOWN WITH IT! THE UNITED STATES HAS THE STRONGEST ECONOMY IN THE WORLD BAR NONE BUT WITH THIS POTENTIAL CRASH IT‘S DOING HARM TO ALL THOSE PATTERNED AFTER IT AND DEPENDENT ON IT!
I GUESS ALL WE CAN DO IS PRAY THAT THE ALMIGHTY WILL BE A GUIDING FORCE IN THE DECISION MAKING EFFORTS OF OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS! MOST OF THEM BELIEVE IN SOME KIND OF SUPREME BEING AND NOW IS THE TIME TO ASK FOR ITS HELP!
I’M NOT GOING TO HOLD MY BREATH WAITING FOR THEM TO CLEAR UP THIS MESS! AFTER ALL THOSE IN THE KNOW SAY IT’S BEEN COMING FOR THE LAST 10-12 YEARS BUT GWB HELPED IT ALONG QUITE A BIT IN THE LAST 7 ½ YEARS! ENOUGH SAID!
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE.
HOWARD
