I tossed out cable for a few months after the election which did help, but I missed the History, Discovery and Military channels so I went to Dish. My political intake is limited to Radio with Glenn Beck and couple local stations that I listen to going from job to job. Aside from that there are a couple websites I frequent for news and I visit here for what tends to be a more level headed conversation of happenings.

But even with that stimulation which I can turn off ot log off, there is no escaping it. Whether it is a vendor or a customer, one of the first questions they ask is how is business? Are you doing alright? And then I hear about the people they know that lost their jobs, or the ones they have or are going to layoff.

I can't even go to a Scout Pack meeting without hearing about job loss.


I can run, but I can't hide from it.
