WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD!

I have not been blogging due to all the calamity in the world. I have been trying not to complain blog. I have been doing that a lot lately on my "All That Bugs" blog and it's getting me down.

So I decided to write about my thoughts on what's going on in the world and see if I can't give you some insight on these issues.

1. HOME LOAN BAIL OUT - I know we needed the bank bailout but please explain to me something. How is it I am going to pay higher taxes so we can give that money to the banks because they made bad business decisions. When I make bad business decisions I have to suffer the consequences. I think what the worst part is, I am going to pay taxes so we can give to the banks and yet I still don't own a home. Not even one of the foreclosed homes that I just paid for through higher taxes. So when I bail out the bank, the bank gets to reap the re-sale of that house. How is that right?

2. AUTOMAKER BAIL OUT - This is simple. This isn't a bank situation. This is the unions strong arming the US for money. They think we will go under if the automotive industry tanks. How about you take some of that union money and bail yourselves out. In the 70's first time employees were starting out making $17 an hour. I can't even imagine what their salaries are today. How about this. We will bail out the automakers only if they go non-union FOREVER. We will rehire everyone as non-union workers and they can join the rest of the world with crashing 401ks and no pension.

3. OBAMA / HILARY CLINTON - Wow. Nice job Obama. You promised new ways of thinking. You promised change. That's great. How is Hilary Clinton change?

4. THE HEAT IN CALIFORNIA - I am over the heat in southern California. We have been hotter than Las Vegas for over a month. We have been as high as 100 degrees in the past week. This Thanksgiving week we are going to start the week off in the 80's. Where is autumn. The tree in my front yard is so confused it's dropping leaves while sprouting new ones. California is so screwed up in the weather. I know we will never get snow, but at least give me a reason to wear pants.

5. SIRIUS SATELLITE IS NOW LESS THAT $0.20 A SHARE - I am going down hard with this stock. I have 1740 shares of garbage. I bought 740 around $5 and the lovely FCC desided to make the XM / Sirius merger the longest drag out merger ever. Long enough to see the ipod come out with two different design updates. Then the housing busted so it dropped below a dollar. I bought another 1000 shares at $0.69 cents. Why not. It's gonna go up and I am going to laugh. Well, I am not laughing. I am crying in shock. Now the automakers are tumbling and no one is buying cars with satellite radio in them. Now the stock is under $0.20. Ouch. Just when gas was cheap enough to start increasing car sales, it's too late. So my advice to you all is to gamble $200 and pick up 1000 shares. If this does pull itself out of the nose dive you'll be sitting pretty. If not, it was just $200. How screwed is the stock market.

6. THE CALIFORNIA FIRES - Lovely. We can never catch the criminals that set these things and so our government lies to us and tells us it was set by campfires. Who the heck is lighting a campfire in 100 degree weather and isn't that person liable. Here is what needs to happen. If your caught for arson, you go to jail for minimum 15 years then killed. Let's make it so bad that people will think twice before lighting up the hillside. It's getting really bad out here. The stupid media doesn't help. They always announce fire warnings. "Okay, kids. Don't you going in the kitchen, get the bbq lighter, and start a fire on the hillside at the corner of Maple St. and Garfield Ave., especially when no one is looking." (media needs to keep their big mouths SHUT. The do more damage that good in this world.

7. CHRISTMAS IS COMING AND NO ONE CARES - Did you even notice that no one is in any holiday spirit. I don't blame them. The black friday ads are horrible. 160 gig HD for $69.00. How is that a deal. They are all horrible. Some stores like Mervyn's, Circuit City, and Linen 'n Things are just trying to keep from going bankrupt until Christmas. Plus, I think in California you can be arrested for saying Christmas. So if you weren't counting, there are 36 days left.
I know what I am getting for Christmas....... more shares of Sirius Satellite. It's the only thing we can afford. :-(

(See. This is much better than complaining)
