Thanksgiving 2008

As Barry Corbin said in "WarGames", "I need a machine to tell me that...?" The economic news continues to be bad. Falling housing starts and prices, higher initial unemployment claims, lower orders for durable goods. Why are houses even getting built? I should find out Monday if I still have a job. I am remaining optimistic. Our investments are having a better week so far, our YTD backed off to ~-15% so far.
