I’d be able to handle this world financial (etc.) meltdown if I didn’t have a family to worry about. Am I the only one who spends at least 30 minutes every day wondering how I’m going to keep three people alive without any money, any gas, electric, or water service, and no…gasp…Internet? I’m really not an “The End Is Nigh” kinda guy, typically, but things are ugly out there, and no one knows what it means or where it’s going.

    We were just talking about this yesterday. Every week another of our favorite spots (and lots of others that aren’t our favorite) closes their doors. It’s getting rather frightening.

    Dude, don’t worry, we will all end up in Decorah living off the land. Hope you like tubers – the winter might get a bit long.

    Commune baby!
