Obama had a MIRACLE announcement! A decrease of 3/10 in the UNemployment PERCENTAGES to under 8%! WoW, with 80,000 newley eligable persons able to enter the job market, THOUSANDS applying for Social Security Disability (read maxed out UNemployment benefits and too young for SS, no longer counted as UNemployed) along with so very many working for from a 1/3 to 1/2 their former wages or moving HOME and no longer counted as UNemployed we have this most timely MIRACLE which (like the last TWO UNemployment figures, will be revised UPwards, BUT not until after the November 6th elections!) I must say: OMG! Obama Must Go!

So very sad to see a landmark as familiar as the old SS Pierce Building moving!
Very glad that Red will still be available to solve the problems that 'just can't wait'!
Looking forward to my first visit to his new location and checking out for my first time the Village Green Renewal offerings!
