Crisis? What cri$i$?

I love shopping.

But I also hate it, not shopping, per se, but the other people who are in the vicinity as I when I shop, 'cept for the cute girls at the lin...I mean, food courts. By the way, has anyone else noticed that our food courts are becoming more and more, um, shiny? The majority of the food still sucks, that's no different, but have you been into one lately? They're really sparkly!

It really amazes me that while governments are busy trying to bailout their respective catastrophes, the people, at least over here, are nonchalant about it. Practically oblivious to the fact that if their government doesn't react fast enough, they'll be the first to suffer its effects. And then they'll moan and groan, cursing at the government and the leaders, why? WHY MUST I SUFFER? Ooo, chocolate doughnut. Yum.

I reckon that most are dimwits. Wake up! Whatever that is being fed into your sorry excuse for a mind should always be taken a with a pinch of salt. (A small one, yeah.) Believe not everything you see on the idiot box...

This is Chris, signing off.

PS: Christmas shopping still ongoing. Gonna get me a new pair of trousers! Tee hee!
PPS: BUSH, you da man for ducking the shoe attack!

I think that ignoring the situation is a coping mechanism. What can the average person do to improve the economic situation? Not much. Whether or not the governments get their acts together, the common man has nothing to do. So might as well enjoy that donut.

The common person needs more sense. Maybe I'm being petulant, but I really do feel that my countrypeople should be more proactive or at least be more aware of world events as opposed to the latest price reduction in toiletry goods.

Low-fat chocolate doughnut...mmmmm...

Well, living in denial cushions us from the pain of living in reality. ;-)

I don't mind shopping but like you, don't like the shoppers with their brutish ways - not to mention unruly kids who are so willing to mop the floors of the mall with their rolling around. ;-)

Angie: Haha! Someone mentioned that to me before but I didn't notice till then. Kids on the floor 'mopping' it just doesn't cut it with me. Get up!
