Despite all of my concerns I did run up on a few interesting articles like Bono's column in the New York Times and the Best Jobs in 2009.
Bono's column in NY Times

25 best jobs of 2009

I was just thinking about this today, you know how good I am at remembering faces. Well, I saw someone that I graduated with and he pretended that he didn't know me unless he had forgot, and I didn't make myself known, because we were never really friends anyway. We just took some classes together. He has really changed, I remember he use to be a skinny. He looks different now. I noticed that he was wearing one of those dixie rebel T-shirts. Also, saw a red truck flying a huge rebel/confederate flag, this was the first time I had seen this. I don't know what it means, and I will not assume but I don't think it is a good sign. It could be a symbol of hate, or it could mean I'm a tough guy, I'm still confused. Well, I'm not going to let it spoil the rest of my day. I not going to worry about, I don't have to live with them.
Also something else has been on my mind like college and tuition. I know someone who is close to retirement age, and she has a child who is going to school. She went before she was 24 years old, and they had to put all of the student loans in her parents name. I think it is a shame that they do that, if you are at least 18 years of age, you should be responsible for your own student loans. I say that, because children usually start working at age 16. When you are 18 you are considered to be an adult. I don't think parents should have this debt hanging over their heads, especially at retirement age, it is sad. Then, it's worst if the child doesn't have a job after they finish.
