    well let me start off by saying its not the little green pieces of paper that are unhappy, and no "bail out" is going to "kick start the economy". and neither will tax breaks for people who already have more then they know what to do with.

    500 bux wouldn't buy me anything i want that i can't already afford.
    i'll take it though, and either squirelle it away, or spend it at the computer store or the train store.

    there are three things i'd like to get that i'm not getting until i have a place for them where i can use them, and what remains of my life being what it is, that might not happen. one, the lowest end cnc laser cutter, called a zing, costs $8k. a bit more then either i have or that 500 would cover. the other two: desktop cnc milling machine and a 3d printer, are each less then $2k, and that i could, in principal, cover now, except again, i don't currently live where i have even room to put and use them.

    500 bux might go a ways toward helping me move though, or if it was placed into my hand within the next week, i would probably go to the furry convention in seattle called rain-furrest. or i might get a line of credit, and start doing what a lot of my fellow artists do, of commissioning each other. sort of like the way people took in each other's laundry during the depression of the 1930s.

    Probably would use it towards some sort of home decor. I plan of refurnishing our place when we move, and an extra $500 would be nice to have. Otherwise, I might invest in some stock for my daughter's college education fund.
