Today, I got to drive around the state searching titles and getting out in the free air. It was a pleasure to be able to drive around and see what Spring has left in different places.
Unfortunately, there was more news of troubles on the real estate front. I heard one title examiner talking about being sacked by his law firm. I could see a lot of businesses in the process of folding everywhere I went. A lot of commercial buildings, in various states of completion, where tenants for the spaces were nowhere to be seen.
I see the indication of economic terrorism all around. The cheapest gas I saw was 3.68. I heard a story about President Bush and his futile attempts to get the Saudis to produce more gas and lower the prices. The Saudis said, "no."
So we are stuck with an unending war and higher and higher gas prices. Just what we need.
And the local guard unit is now scheduled to be deployed to Afghanistan next Summer. More fun.
Meanwhile, nothing going on on the office front. I have two hearings to attend to on Monday. Two more on Thursday.
Put your hand out and beg for better times. No one can give them to us other than ourselves. We are on the downhill slide, economically. And yet, the last great world power, Great Britain, has found a way to keep the pound stronger than the dollar. Fun times.
