I am an invisible man. No, I am not a spook like those who haunted Edgar Allen Poe; nor am I one of your Hollywood-movie ectoplasms. I am a man of substance, of flesh and bone, fibre and liquids, and I might even be said to possess a mind. I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me. When they approach me they see only my surroundings, themselves, or figments of their imagination, indeed, everything and anything except me.

-Ellison, Ralph Waldo

Invisible Man, prologue.

The vital accessories to my work are my reference books, such as the complete Shakespeare and a prayer book, and a large refuse bin.

recession

Recession is the decline in a country's gross domestic product (GDP), or negative real economic growth, for two or more successive quarters of a year. The term recession, however, has been utilized in recent decades by politicians to distort the economic outlook and reframe in more positive terms rather than have to address the looming economic depression.

Ralph: Dude, the feds just lowered interest rates and backed a takeover of a large investment bank after acknowledging that we might be in a recession.

Ted: This recession's been going on since Bush took over. How long until we call it an economic depression?

Redus

A creature made of pure energy who takes the form of a pedophile and is in charge of bringing Miller Lite to the Ku Klux Klan meetings. Reduses can usually be identified by a prominant crustache, the inability to properly sit down, and a stench which can be smelled from several kilometers away. Instead of shaving, Reduses shed their skin every 6-8 centuries. It is beleived that Reduses are a species of angels created by Leonardo Da Vinci in the high Renaissance who hibernated for 500 years and are destined to help mankind fight global warming by converting people into pirates. Reduses do not require sleep, so when everyone else is slumbering they return to their homeworld and fight each other with pool noodles to determine supremecy and who will get to mate with the prettiest Earth children. At the crack of dawn, Reduses return to Earth wearing only loincloths and high socks. They then slyther on their stomachs in the savannahs of Metrowest county and abduct children on their way to school. Instead of killing or raping the children, Reduses just lecture them about a random subject for hours. The child is then bitten by Redus which causes him/her to transform into a stick of deoderant, which Redus will never use. Redus then swings his tail back and forth and uses it as a propeller to fly to school, where he camps out in his history class and snoozes underneath his invisibility cloak.

I woke up yesterday and saw Redus standing over my bed. He had drawn a pentagram on the floor and was sacrificing a goat while reading the Bible backwards in Latin. I reached under my pillow and grabbed a steak and some Holy Water and stabbed him in the kidney. The redus then hissed at me and morphed into a minotaur, but I splashed it with holy water while singing "Club Cant Handle Me". The redus evaporated into smoke and I could see it's soul flying back to it's homeworld of Canada.

Great Recession

The worst financial crisis in the United States since the Great Depression and the current period we are in. It occurred during the first decade of the 21st century (core years lasted from 2007-2010) and was marked by rampant job losses, high unemployment, collapse of the real estate market, Wall Street losses, and the closing of numerous banks. The national unemployment rate was as high as 10% in 2010.

It was triggered by foreclosures and a collapse of the real estate market in Florida in 2007. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two large government subsidized mortgages lenders, later fell under heavy scrutiny by many members of Congress. It also created a national credit crunch that resulted in new government regulations that tightened lending standards and changed the rules for nearly every bank. All of a sudden, even people with nearly spotless credit found it hard to get a loan on anything. Wall Street stocks fell by nearly 50% in 2009.

The GR also changed the political clout in Washington when Republicans became the majority party in the House of Representatives, after the 2010 midterm elections sent many Democrats home. Things havent improved very much as the Great Recession is still ongoing and many Americans are still out of work. It will take many years for the housing market to recover, and probably longer for the jobs return to pre-recession levels.

The Great Recession has been hell!
