Considering the amount of driving I normally have to do in a week, the only thing that's going to be stimulated is my gas tank. :((
That's too bad! I got to buy a bunch of $7 beers from a ballpark vendor that probably makes more a yr than I do. My wife spent hers on a new watch and some clothes. We don't really buy things for ourselves all that often, so it was nice to have an excuse.

the US govt is sending checks to people whose income is in a certain range this month, ostensibly to "stimulate" the economy. you could also call it ridiculous election-year pandering... if you were cynical.

nope. it's based on salary, deductions, dependents, etc.. and to estimate your amount[^], you have to have your 2007 tax return in-hand.

Mine'll be blown on my next CC payment. I got two refurb NEC 2090uxi's for $570ish total. New (4 vs 1y warranty, extra cables in box) they're $800 each. Utterly gorgeous displays. No (vertical) color shifting, no (horizontal) gamma shift, no black crush. Just perfect color across the screen and the same true 178* viewing angles as a CRT. IPS rules!

I bought a PS3 and GTAIV. So I stimulated the Japanese and British economies.
