Dearest Internet

Please don't abandon hope. Pretend you are the victim in a Law and Order SVU episode, this is a good thing really, because you know that the most famous actor is ALWAYS the bad guy and Benson and Stabler will come and save the day. They will make this unstable market turn into a sexual predator with a rap sheet and his name on a list. And they will get you into group counseling.

Or pretend that all this hubbub is just a romantic comedy, say, like "Starter Wife" starring Grace. Since Will and Grace split, she has now become a witless nymph on a tiny network. Now that gay is no longer funny the dollar has gone to shit. Clay Aiken sure is funny though, and he's gay. See? Things could turn around.

It's a beautiful day today in Salt Lake. The sun is out, snow capped peaks, red leaves on the tips of the treeline. Don't give up on me. Robinhood was right and there are people who will not turn a blind eye. They will help in this time of need. When more people are hungry and homeless, we will find more of us that can help. I have to believe that when people talk about a GLOBAL economy, a GLOBAL problem, it just means that America has finally gotten bitch slapped. Kabam. If someone can figure out how to make Facebook email me a bumper sticker it thinks I will like - why can't we figure out how to make banking and healthcare easy to manage and control? Spreadsheets are the answer. Spreadsheets and yoga. Oh and white truffle oil. I will give that up though for the cause.

So my little hands are going to make bread and share it - and serve it with plum jam of course.
When you can't fix a problem that was created in the 80's by irresponsible Reaganomics, just take a moment to remember that it's friendships and family and people that are important. Even Internet friendships. Facebook, myspace, blogspot are our new sit-ins.

Let's forget the imaginary debt ratios of a broken society.

OH and please shut Sarah Palin up. Shut her up.

Thank you for understanding internet, I will owe you one.
