What you talkin' 'bout?
Things is good.....this month.....if you sell corollas for a living. Of course, next month you won't sell a single one unless barry keeps printing that toilet paper they laughingly refer to as currency.

Foreclosures have about as much relevance to the entire economy as cancer survival rates have to the entire health care system.
If you look hard enough (not very hard) you can find evidence pointing in either direction.
My 401K is up about 15% so far this year. I could GARA about foreclosures. Just means more affordable houses on the market.

On the lighter side...
Cheney now claims that Bush is a pussy.

"He said Bush was shackled by the public reaction and the criticism he took. Bush was more malleable to that. The implication was that Bush had gone soft on him, or rather Bush had hardened against Cheney's advice. He'd showed an independence that Cheney didn't see coming. It was clear that Cheney's doctrine was cast-iron strength at all times -- never apologize, never explain -- and Bush moved toward the conciliatory."

What are you bitching at BO about? Bush's term isn't even over for almost a month.

Tech spending, at least in our market is up - we're up 30% from last year and thats across multiple vertical markets.
Even retail tech spending is way up over 2008
