Merry Christmas From HousingDoom


 

 

Today it is Christmas, it’s time to forget,

The rising foreclosures and national debt,

Don’t think about swaps or about CDOs

Forget “mark-to-model” and new market lows.

Forget Hank, Ben and “Dubbya”, and CNBC,

Forget bailouts and stimulus, forget the Big 3.

Derivatives? Who needs them- forget what they are.

Forget credit crises both here and afar.

That’s stuff’s for tomorrow- forget while you may.

Enjoy food, enjoy family- no cares for today.

It will be there tomorrow, don’t ever you fear,

But Christmas, dear Christmas is just once a year.

So unwrap some presents, have holiday cheer,

Merry Christmas from us and a Happy New Year.

Isaiah 9:6

From everyone here at Doom Castle, a very Merry Christmas.

    Greetings from Halifax!

    At nearly 14 months, grandson Callum in NDG Montreal is doing everything but walking. Maybe today :)

    John-

    Show off!!!

    By the way, my oldest son started walking right at about 14 months. He was sitting in his dad’s lap and I said, “Walk over here.” He did, and that was the last he ever crawled. I was worried he might be a little slow because it seemed like the baby books said that was late, but as you know, he’s one bright kid. I don’t worry any more. : )
