[Cicero]

When I was "let go" right before Christmas because of the sub prime market crash, and I watched other people get fired as well, I don't think I was whining. We all were upset.For good reason. And I was hanging in there....

I might add, that I did not simply imagine the whole event.

I also might add that I am working on a creative project with the city and state to offset the recession locally, and to develop more interest in spending money right here. This is not openly stated because we don't want to look desparate as desperation is not an attractoin, but this exists and they have the numbers to reflect that, on the state and local level. These are things I don't imagine, as you know, I have an active imagination, but this is not something I want to conjure up because it's no fuc**** fun.
