How to Make a Recession Come True
We just received a cancellation from a company who organizes tours that said, "Due to the current state of the economy and the prospects for the near future, We will not be offering tours in 2009.”
I was immediately reminded of Charles Osgood, the bowtied CBS commentator. Osgood's Latest File was titled "A Grinchy Recipe on how to Worsen Economic Woes" It is a poem in the tradition of Dr. Suess, the bowtied poetic genius, that gives the formula for making a recession come true.
