I was supposed to have a meeting today with our new COO/IT person/Marketing Person/Money person, and he never came. Weirdly I don't have his number, but I know his phone has email so I sent him an e and never heard. WTF? Did I get the time wrong? I am sure it is not tomorrow, and I think he would have let me know yesterday if I missed a meeting yesterday.

I don't think this guy's article is helping things....

Two years from now, in 2010, a large percentage of interstate travel, shipping and air carrier service will cease to function. I will explain that in a minute. The exact percentage is unknown, but I would think it is over 50 percent. Also, a massive failure of the banking system of the United States will put most business in dire jeopardy. Furthermore, without interstate trucking there will be sporadic food shipments in the United States. In short, 2010 is the year that the US ceases to function as a nation and splinters into dozens of isolated regions without energy or food or work. The outcome is rioting, looting, murder and fear of everything. The local, state and federal governments will be helpless because they cannot respond to the scene or enforcement is overwhelmed.

Using the astrology chart of the United States of America, the situation looks very grim for these investment banks perched as they are on a slender limb of creative finance. I have already been correct about the housing crisis/debt crisis of 2007 in terms of astrology analysis. And the topping off of housing prices in 2006, after years of rapid gains, was also predicted by the astrology. The dot com collapse of 2000 was again clearly evident in the astrology. By reason of consistency in predictive accuracy, I must conclude that the year 2010 is one more massive shock to the economy of our nation and, indeed, the entire world. I use the Gemini rising chart in case any reader is interested in that aspect of it.

Happy Birthday, sj!

I have to agree with the rest of the Monday votes. Sucks that there's a holiday right when you're doing this.

Are you Kansas City Erin?

Here's the open job list for the Belton district if it helps any.

Aw, Gud, thanks! Yeah, I am KC. Belton uses MOREAP.net, so I would see if they had a position open for my area -- Secondary English/Language Arts.

But for god's sake, if anyone hears anything, e me!

Oh well. I suspect Belton will be doing some hiring in the future. The elementary school my kids go to opened last year and during that first school year they went over capacity from kids enrolling during the year.

I have been earwormed with "The Lonely Goatherd" from The Sound of Music.

I wouldn't be surprised, esp. as I see more people moving out to close suburbs as their kids get to be school age -- esp. middle and high, since the schools in KC proper are...bad. Yes, I have applied for KCMO, but it is still, after what, 40 years? still a clusterfucked mess.

Thanks for sharing, Dana!
