Normandy Invasion was in first, but in the end could only muster fourth place at the Kentucky Derby. The owners of said horse had feelings very similar to those of us who ever dare to play Allies in G40. We, too, always feel like we could have won but instead finish in fourth place. Just sayin. ;)
Good news…

And we know who to blame this on, right? Our evil, poor-hating, rich-loving, President, and his nasty tax cuts ;).

Take the period off the end of the link, works just fine then.
Also, reading the story, it sounds a lot like 1998, before the Tech Bubble burst. Super economy, wage and job creation growth, high investment yields…
If past trends are any indication, 2006 will see a serious “bust” in the economy. I am betting on a collapse of specific areas for the real estate bubble that will trickle into other areas of the economy, combined with a repeat rise in liquid fuels prices after a winter of extremely elevated consumer expense on heating fuels that will slow consumer spending in 2006.
Increasing instability in the Middle East will further strain fuel prices and guarantees of supplies, further slowing the economy.
Anyone care to lay odds?
