Hotdogs and happy hour


Gray's Papaya is having a Recession Special. Although my friend tells me its actually a raise in price. I'm confused as to why it says "Save $1.00." I'll get back to you on that one.


One of my favorite things to do is pick up flyers on the sidewalk in my neighboorhood. I get to find out about specials, fashion shows, and art openings. I get a real kick out of it. Here is a flyer for $20 open bar on thursdays...hmm tempting.

This guy does not look happy about the recession.

Releasing the stress of the Recession


Increasingly of interest to me is the advertising during this time. Gap reinforces positivity and the spas promise to destress in stressful times.
