Some bad economic news for us again today; one of Carolyn's accounts that depends on the housing market for most of its income is releasing her contract at the end of this month. The above photo is from the plant; Alice will know where it's located. Used to be we could ride these type things out because we could get work from other places. Now, no one is considering our type services. One or more employees will have to be cut back, and they, like us, aren't having it easy anyway.
Two places did call however, want information. One is construction cleanup of the JC Penny addition at the Mall. It has to be performed on weekdays and will be impossible for Carolyn to undertake. The other is a local library looking for a service to fill in on weekends and days when their regular janitor isn't available. She will give it a look, but probably won't be anything she can handle at the moment.

I wish I could lay the blame at His Majesty's doorstep, but I realize these things are cyclic and redundant. What I can blame on George is the fact that he has done nothing to alleviate the problem. As a matter of fact, his policies and lack of direction have exacerbated things. If he thinks the rebate is going to be a big boost to the economy, he and Congress have another think coming. His original rebate after he took office was used to give the working people a temporary euphoria while he was giving his corporate buddies the big breaks.
American voters are so gullible!
