Nine of us drove our SUVs to the airport and flew in thirsty jet planes to consume food and fun at Disney World. We had a good time, but it amazes me how much money people still have to burn and how we are truly a society of consumers. I would love to see Disney’s energy bill for just one month since everything they do is so energy intensive: lighting, transport, rides, and so on.
It’s good to be back home. Gas is only $1.93/gal., a price I never thought I’d see again, and the Dow is around 8000, which means we’ve lost about 10 years of gains in recent months.
The only drawback of being home is that I’mm back to reading all the bad news–and Black Friday ads!–again!
