It's not time for your monthly newsletter, but I couldn't resist sharing this message, heard on the radio last week from Charles Osgood on CBS.

May it give you a little perspective on these interesting times!
A Grinchy Recipe On. . . How to worsen economic woes. What goes into a slump that becomes a recession... and how to turn that into full-blown depression. If business falls off, you must not advertise. Oh no, for that would be extremely unwise. You must pull in your horns and not let people know... how great are your products when business is slow. If you let them find out, they might go out and buy. You don't want that to happen, so don't even try To spark any interest in things that you make. This might slow down the slowdown, for heavens' sake. There once was a saying that you can dismiss. If I recall, it went something like this: Here's the secret of success, I heard someone say, perhaps on CBS, Early to bed, Early to rise, Work like a dog, and Advertise! If you want a recession, remember that verse... then go out and do exactly the reverse. If you're a salesman, don't do any selling. Cancel your ads --- they might be too compelling. If you're a lender, don't lend any money. Wait 'til the skies dear, and everything's sunny. Creating depression is really a cinch. That's how you do it... Yours Truly, The Grinch.
