Obviously I got distracted

Not that I've stopped thinking about health care and the uninsured and all, but I'm just not sure I have anything new to say about the situation right now. With the current state of the economy, health care reform may take a back seat to other economic issues. Right now there's not much to do except to continue to learn about the issues and wait to see what proposals will come about. So that is what I am doing and if I learn anything significant I will be sure to share it here.

In case you haven't noticed...

ToooooooooooooMORROW TOMORROW
I love ya

You're always a day A-way!

PS - Just in case you were wondering, the stock market is volatile right now b/c it's volatile. It's gonna be like this for a good while. We had the biggest 2 day loss after an election day b/c we had the biggest gain for an election day. It wouldn't have mattered if Mickey Mouse had won the election. Wall Street would have reacted the same way. It's not nearly as significant as the media seems to want it to be.

PPS - The gas price thing just has me scratching my head. They say it is supply and demand, but I do not see more people on the road with $2/gallon gas nor did I see fewer people on the road with $4/gallon gas. The same people are on the road every day. I think the supply and demand thing is actually for futures, but I still don't quite understand what the price of futures has to do with the price of gas at the pump. So if you can explain it to me, I'd love to be enlightened.
