1929 Depression vs 2008 Depression

Back in the1929 Financial Crash it was said that some Wall Street Stockbrokers and Bankers JUMPED from their office windows and committed suicide when confronted with the news of their firms and clients financial ruin. Many people were said to almost feel a little sorry for them.

is wishing he could see a Texas vs. Alabama Sugar Bowl but knows that ain’t gonna happen.
Wishing teenagers would focus less on eros and more on philia. Of course, I might have more luck wishing for a world peace and a lunar condo
