2009

So, Its been a while. It also looks like all those people that were calling apocalypse 2008 might have been shortsighted as 2009 looks like a real shit storm.

Here in Britain we have a delusional Prime Minister who keeps repeating that "Britain are best placed to withstand this recession" despite the International Monitory Fund thinking otherwise.

Dear dear dear... I really don't know what else to say... Oh yeah.

Obama has inherited what could be best described as a lose lose situation, not only that, he has an opposition party that think tax cuts can cure everything but the common cold.

But look, I'm a cup half full kinda guy and I have subscribed to the notion that sooner or later something has to give. What that something is I don't know but it has to give. While everyone is fretting over this recession all I keep thinking is about how this downturn is effecting those that had nothing in the first place, i.e. the developing countries. Why are we not hearing about how much they are suffering... What, all the sudden I'm supposed to care about a country that doesnt provide all its citizens basic healthcare? Please.

Anyway, while this recession is taking its course, I am going to be here, chilling. I hope you'll be doing the same
