Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend. The weather was beautiful out here in the Windy City— especially for fireworks. I’m surrounded by pyromaniacs in my neighborhood, so I spent the evening of the Fourth on my balcony taking in a cigar and watching various home-grown fireworks displays. No casualties, as far as I know, but I’m still coughing up gunpowder. Even though I’m tied down with several projects at the moment, the next day I managed to squeeze in a barbecue out in the suburbs. Overall, it was an enjoyable weekend. While I always appreciate the celebratory aspect of Independence Day, every year I also make it a point to remember those who made tremendous sacrifices for our country. Too numerous to mention, from Founding Father to Unknown Soldier, I, for one, am eternally grateful to you. Their deeds helped lay the foundation for this country, and we, the present-day caretakers of this great nation, must not let them down. This weekend, I happened to come acr...

I’m a sucker when it comes to ice cream. I absolutely love it, even when it’s freezing outside. While I never turn away any kind of ice cream (“give it to Mikey, he’ll eat anything”) I often eat Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream from Vermont. According to their website, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield met in 1963 in the 7th grade gym class in Merrick, New York (Long Island). They moved to Vermont in 1977 and completed a $5 correspondence course in ice cream-making from Penn ...

The Mess That Dubya Made?

Is it fair to blame the White House for our country’s economic woes? I mean, just how much influence does the President of the United States wield over the economy? I had always thought that their influence was extremely limited in scope. Whether this belief is right or wrong, I do know this. When the economy is booming, they are the first to take the credit. And when things go horribly wrong, they are also the first ones blamed. Sheila Suess Kennedy, an associate professor of law and pu...

‘All Economics Is Local’
From: boom2bust.com
Post Date: 2008-03-05 08:38:19

Yesterday, Barbara Hagenbaugh in USA Today talked about the significance of assessing the U.S. economy on a state-by-state basis. She wrote: Despite the recent onslaught of negative news, it remains unclear whether the current state of affairs meets the economists’ definition of a recession: a widespread decline in economic activity lasting more than just a few months. As in politics, all economics is local. As the debate rages on among economists whether or not the United States has entered ...
