Trick or treat

This week I am take my two little one's trick or treating. My son Justin will be the blue power ranger from Jungle Fury series and my daughter Brooklyn will be Minnie mouse. Justin is very excited and has been asking me every day is it halloween. He wants to put on his custome everyday! I think we will go to the mall and then around the neighborhood. My nephew Daequan turned 1 years old on October 28th and I will be hosting a costume party for him on Saturday where the adults have to dress up as well. I have not put on a costume on in over 12 years and I think it will be kind of fun. All my friends are very excited as well.

Hello

This weekend was good! I got to watch DA Bears get a win! I am a Chicago sports fan! I like the Bears, Cubs, and the Bulls! So after a couple of games where they didn't play so good the Bears are starting to gel! I am a Denver Bronco and Denver Nuggets fan as well. I guess I should keep hope alive for the Broncos but it is hard after seeing them lose 41-7 to the Patriots and to add insult to the injury Jay Cutler is hurt. The defense needs help on the Bronco team. I think that is their biggest weakness right now. Ironically, I think that is the case for the Bears as well. For years the Bears have had one of the most dominating defense in the league, but offense could not do anything. Now with Kyle Orton doing more then running the offense the defense can stop other teams from scoring. I am pretty sure Coach Lovie Smith will start to get on the defense and they will start to step up as the season progresses. The bronco's on the other hand..... The defense will need more than what I think Coach Mike Shananhan can help with.

The bailout

Well, it is 1:52 PM MST and the market right now is up 813. Liquidity was injected into the world's central banks and a interbank lending guarantee by the government. I was waiting to see what the bailout would do to help. I just wonder what took it so long to take action. The european makets in my mind helped get our markets started. They did their bailout and moved very quickly to get funds put into their market. I only hope that these actions are sustained.

Now what?

Well the house passed the bailout Friday and today the market went down 800pts. It was nice to see we closed down 369.88 considering. What now? Well, we have to wait to see how quickly the bailout start to show signs that it is working. Will people get to refinance and have banks got rid of their bad debts. I have heard a lot of talk that the bailout came to late. Only time will tell.

Roller coaster market

10/02Well the bail out package has made it to the second line of defense. We are now in a waiting game to see to if congress get enough votes to pass it this time. This deal has a lot of things added to it to try to get congress to like it better. They have a lot of things included in the plan that don't have anything to do with the financial crisis, like tax cuts. Maybe they trew it in as a sweetner to make it easier to digest. They vote on it Friday 10/03/08. So we will see.

The VP debate is on tonight. I will be interested to see what both sides have to say. In the first debate I thought both party's dodged a lot of the questions. I think both Palin and Biden will be more up front about the issues that they are asked about.
