Well seen, Shirley. A very apt comment on what is in store for us. I just hope that our kids don't have to pay for it all.

I am tired of waiting for it to pick up. I am going to be dead before I have enough to retire on - oh well. Maybe the wife can take my calls and make it seem I am still at work :-)

Hahahahahaha! Well spotted, Shirley. I wonder if a higher contrast conversion might give it even more impact - just a thought. --Stefan

Hi Shirley, First off, Welcome back. I'm very glad to see you hear again. This is an interesting take on the theme but I like it. It really expresses the way most people feel about the state of our economy even though the gov't says that it was over in '09.

Good heavens! Skeleton crews ... love that. Poor guy isn't even earning enough to keep himself fed.

I wonder what they do or sell in THAT office??
