[TriLUG] Not Linux: Anyone else feeling the pain?

[Carl Crider]

 I sold back the rest of my vacation and moved from salary to hourly.
This "should"
offset the recent pay cut. Unfortunately, Christmas with the
grandparents won't happen
this year and the kids are bummed. The recent economic mess has made my scar
from 2001 start hurting again. Hope everyone gets through this one OK.
