How are you helping our economy?

I am buying things to spur up our economy. Let me count the ways.

• I got an XBox 360. I was convinced by a friend, who shall remain nameless, that I need one to play games with them over the internet. Maybe it will be true sometime. I don't even have one game for it. Sad.

• I am using a new home server from HP called MediaSmart Server. I am pretty happy with this. It has four bays to put huge hard drives!!!!
  

• I bought a very light note book computer or sometimes called a netbook, MSI Wind. I use it at work since the work computer takes a half hour to load up. I am so glad I can use my own computer at work.

• I bought a pair of shoes, Piloti Prototipo,  for driving. Maybe my manual shifting and clutching will get better. Maybe not!

I have done what I can short of buying a car. Hm, should I buy a car? How about a Honda Fit? It is getting great press for being a great value, fun to drive, and very practical.

Do your part and buy something you wanted at a discounted price!!!!!
