So much for "open-ended QE driven recovery". Moments ago the March Non-farm payroll hit and it was a doozy, printing at 88K, below the lowest forecast of 100K, well below the expected number of 190K, and a tragedy compared to the February revised print of 268K (was 236K). This was the biggest miss to expectations since December 2009 and the worst print since June 2012. The unemployment rate declined to 7.6%, but this was due entirely to the collapse in the labor force participation rate, which declined by 20 bps to 63.3%, a new 30 year low.

Yet not a word from you when the February numbers far exceeded expectations.

No wonder you never get a raise.   :rolleyes:
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

You guys should get a clue to what you talk about before you speak.......just a tad bit of wisdom to chew on........it seems like you guys do this on such a regular basis, it has become how you roll.

Bummer, sorry, me. I hate it when cars crap out. As much as they cost they should last 50 years.  :)

Tell me about it.  Bad thing is we had just filled it up and only had about 30 miles on it.  Had it been down to 1/4 or maybe even 1/2 tank either my SIL or a friend of ours could have done it but I, well we, felt it was just too much of a pain so I had it hauled to a place we take it to have it serviced for the winter and trips.  I'm just glad it happened to me today instead of tonight.  I had planned to go to the Eagles and that would have made it late.
