Election Day

Get Out and Vote!

Busy day today.   Got up early to vote and found that it was easy to get in and out.   I managed to vote in about 5 or 10 minutes.   Next stop, Starbucks to get an enormous Skinny Hazelnut latte.   Again, not much of a wait this morning.    Off to work with a stop at Thorntons to fill up the car.    Gas was $2.73 / gallon which is lower than it has been lately but still higher than I think it should be - made me glad I had voted today.    

I'm sure I dont have to tell you that we are beginning the third year of the recession.   In the papers, I read all sorts of news saying that the recession is over.   I am hearing all kinds of reports that Louisville is getting new companies and new jobs.   Yet, my experience in the market place does not seem to match these reports.    I am still having friends lose jobs.   Unemployment is still right around 10%.     Property values seem to have decreased anywhere from 20% to 40%.   

If ever there was a time to motivate you to vote, I would argue that this is it.  

Please get out and vote and have a great day!
