Rebound. Bah, humbug!
Well, stocks closed up over 400 points today. Dammit, how dare they take my entertainment away like that.

[info]gillen must be devastated.

In other news, someone joined USA 2020 as a member of the "American Nationalist Party". Not sure what that is, exactly, and a Google search has turned up nothing. I'm assuming it's his own creation, but hopefully it's not as creepy as the name sounds. It almost sounds like a name some neo-Nazi organization would pick.

Oh, and I received two comments on the design of the USA 2020 site with some very glowing praise, so that's been a nice part of the day.

EDIT: OK, he cleared it up and the party is not in fact a hate group. Whew. I hate jumping to conclusions, but so many neo-Nazi groups have mis-appropriated the term "nationalist" that jumping to conclusions was all too easy.

Michael Savage has been promising to launch a Nationalist Party after the election. That should be amusing.


And I'm disappointed, but not devastated. We're still well below 10,000 and there's only more bad news in the wings. Jobs figures will be down again, the auto industry is collapsing and it will be a very thin Christmas season for retail sales. Plus there's the election and all. No, there's still more fun ahead!

Ah, someone after my own black heart. Cheers to being entertained by bears. Now if only we could let loose a few hundred polar bears in the capital...
