How does it feel?

[asakiyume]

On Marketplace, they said they have a place on their website where people can write in how the economy feels to them.

Well.

I think it's kind of dry on top, but damp underneath, and there are prickles at the edge that ooze if you break them, and that stuff gives you a hella rash if you get it on you.

How about you? What does it feel like to you?

This would make an excellent economic indicator too. I can just hear it on NPR, "And today three eldritch tentacles were sighted emerging from the icy, oily depths, indicating irrational exuberance on the part of the one percent and quailing and trembling in their huts on the part of the ninety-nine."

Much better poetry than Consumer Confidence.
