You'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
You'd better keep cash
I'm telling you why:
Recession is coming to town.
It's hitting you once,
It's hitting you twice
It doesn't care if you've been careful and wise
Recession is coming to town
It's worthless if you've got shares
It's worthless if you've got bonds
It's safe when you've got cash in hand
So keep cash for goodness sake, HEY
You'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
You'd better keep cash
I'm telling you why:
Recession is coming to town!
Finance products are confusing
Finance products are so vague
The banks make you bear the cost of risk
So keep out for goodness sake, OH
You'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
You'd better keep cash
I'm telling you why:
Recession is coming to town.

Yes We Can Yes We Can...
.
Obama 當選美國總統，不論在眾議院、參議院民主黨均取得大多數議席，Obama 也是首位非洲裔美國總統，取得空前勝利，也告訴大家我們進入了不一樣的時代。
在 CNN 的 Top 10 Campaign Video，裡面有 Obama 在超級星期二前推出的競選歌曲 Video。這段 Music Video 的憾動人心，雖然不為美國人，也值得大家分享分享。
It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.
Yes we can.
It was written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.
Yes we can.
It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.
Yes we can.
It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
Yes we can.
It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.
Yes we can to justice and equality.
Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.
Yes we can heal this nation.
Yes we can repair this world.
Yes we can.
We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.
We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics...they will only grow louder and more dissonant ........... We've been asked to pause for a reality check. We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.
But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.
Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; we will remember that there is something happening in America; that we are not as divided as our politics suggests; that we are one people; we are one nation; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea --
Yes. We. Can.

HBO 電影 "RECOUNT" (選票風波)
.
"No matter how hard the loss, defeat might serve as well as victory to shake the soul and let the glory out. " 這是前美國副總統 Al Gore 在承認敗選後說的話。
昨天晚上在 HBO 看電影 "Recount" (選票風波) ，描述布希與高爾在總統選舉時出現的佛羅里達州選票爭議事件。很有趣的電影，劇本及人物編排明顯經過很用功的設計。
在網路上查一查其他 Al Gore 的 Quotes，其中一句也很有趣：
『Our democracy, our constitutional framework is really a kind of software for harnessing the creativity and political imagination for all of our people. The American democratic system was an early political version of Napster. 』
