No more Hummers

Hoes across the country are open-mouthed at this point...

I was shocked (yet not) to see that GM and Chevy are still effed (that would be the nice way of saying "fucked", because that's exactly what they are).

I feel kinda bad - not for the companies but for the folks who work for those companies because the higher ups really just effed those companies over. I mean... no more Hummer or Saturn? Soon no more PT Cruisers, Durangos, etc. That is nutty!

I am really hoping me and my honey will survive this crisis. So far so good. I have had a couple of family members affected. My dad was asked to cut hours and my aunt was asked to "retire". Fortunately, she has found a new job... ironically w/the unemployment office. Talk about job stability!

In any case, we still have some tough times ahead of us all. I can only hope that of the people I care about are not affected. Good luck out there... it's getting (more) hairy.

Things are hairy here too. Mr. Sass has had to get a second job so we can make ends meet. I live in a town that many people have jobs with Chrysler/Ford so I'm seeing a lot of ppl loosing jobs and their once cushy lifestyles being turned upside down.
