Shut the hell up already about how there's no end in sight to the worst economic calamity of our lifetime. Maybe then our confidence might stand a tiny chance of improving and things will start recovering.
Jeez!!

Turn off the TV and internet, and cancel your newspaper. Go outside and do something. Take your child to the park. Take your dog to the park. Heck, take your spouse to the park! Take out the "honey do" list and get at 'er. Got a loonie in your pocket? $5? $20? There's about a billion people in the world who live on a loonie/day - you're not as bad off as you think. Relax - you'll live longer.
Sincerely,
The Media.
Seriously, though, I've been fortunate enough to spend the last 6 weeks in Japan. I can't read or write Japanese, and my speaking is rudimentiary at best, so without a 24/7 media barrage telling me how bad the economy is, I have no idea. My level of fear about the imminent demise of the world economy is way down because of my (having to) ignore the tv and newspaper, and having limited 'net access..
Say, what's that mountain goat doing up here in the mist?

The most difficult thing about flying is knowing when to say no.
After over a half a century of flying I can not remember even one trip that I refused to do that resulted in someone getting killed because of my decision not to fly.

Re: DEAR MEDIA:
It's only the second worse economic calamity in Cat Driver's life. Maybe he could give us some advice. Also, North Shore, you should buy the "Rosetta Stone" for Japanese. It works! Oh, wait, you said "read or write". Never mind.
If I'd known I was going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself

I've been preaching the death of TV news and newspapers for years - the more of you who take up the cause, the better.
Wolfie, you're a mother (or soon to be, methinks) so watch yer language or I'll have to wash out your mouth with soap.
