Wayne

Well in case you all (or y'all) haven't heard Wayne is in fact a Wayne! So another male Smyczek is on deck. Jim of course is already thinking about getting him into hockey! In just 4 short months he'll be here...time sure does fly. We hope all of you are well, and we look forward to getting to see you this summer.

Love,
Maggie, Jim (and Wayne)

Great Article on the US Trade Deficit

Some basic info on the US trade deficit and its negative effect on the overall economy. Very interesting!

Speaking of Debt

A great article in the Atlantic about how, when you add in the debt of Freddie and Fannie (not even including all of our future unfunded liabilities), the U.S. current debt levels are about equal to Greece's. Frightening.

Anyone remember this??

Maybe some of you have seen this, funny nonetheless....
