I wasn't affected by the economic crash, so if these gas prices are the result, I say BRING IT ON !!! Every week, I giggle a little bit when I look at the gas price on the way to work, and see that it has dropped another 5 or 10 cents. In my town it is now down to $1.66/gal from an alltime high of $4.52 during the hurricane/pipeline shutdown of the summer. Now it's back down to around 2002 levels.

I hope it stays down for a while... and I want to take a picture of myself next to the gas price when it hits rock bottom. Anybody want to speculate whether it will go under $1.00 again? Probably not... But it sure would be awesome. I remember back in 1999 when you could get gas for 80 cents per gallon. Those were the days :)

Does the economy make a sound when there's no one listening?

Right, the problem is, not by people like me who work at a hospital..

I figure -- I got too much other shit going on to be worried about what is going on in the world. I try to stay sane, and when I have a couple spare minutes, I would MUCH rather spend it relaxing playing a video game or listening to some music, than reading world news...
There's nothing I can do to change the world anyway, so will I really care 50 years from now what happened to (insert interesting news item) today? Nope........
