Did I mention

That I am lurking stalking again.
Yippee skippee the vacation's over and it's back to reality... whatever that is.

While I wasn't here, I did check in occasionally and even periodically posted and sometimes even commented on other blogs. I also came to the conclusion that I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat and I sure do wish they'd leave me alone. I am perfectly capable of making up my own mind and taking care of myself. I have a feeling that there wouldn't be nearly the financial crisis if so many politicians weren't getting paid for for screwups. Darnitall, they should be the last ones to draw a paycheck when things like the economy aren't going right.
I heard this morning that someone wants to improve things for the middle class. Then in almost the same breath said something about letting the stock market wallow in its mess.
Well, somebody ought to remind someone that there are a lot of folks in the middle class... like me... who depend upon stocks, through mutual funds, for their well-being.

Oh, heck! I outta here
