		<description>Good morning,
Good article and so true. Things here in Vermont seem to reflect how it is everywhere else. The good news is your fudge and surprise is on its way. Enjoy.

Love mom and the misky kids in vermont</description>

		<description>As an unemployed 33 year old who ran 6 miles this morning to prepare for basic (and hopefully OCS), I say: Amen.  I'm a little frustrated to be caught up in the times, as I came to this decision about two weeks before I was laid off from a job I loved working on a Defense contract.

		<description>So true and well said! If you don't believe how bad it is here at home call me, I'm the Collections and Fraud Investigator for a bank. I know I'm glad to have a job. The military is a noble and honorable profession and have a better track record of taking care of its people that the civilian work place.</description>
