Closing on January 3, 2010 — Page 2

does the michael reidel article this morning hurt?
I mean, when the producers announce what Michael said this morning in the paper that Ragtime will probably close Jan 3, will that hurt you to know i am right once again?
It probably will. Just a tad.

it's not glee of other people losing jobs its the glee of seeing people who are mean and ruthless for no reason and make personal attacks to eat their words.

when i predict a shows closing it has nothing to do with the PEOPLE in it, it has to do with the facts of why its not going to run. You are the one making it personal. I never ever once said "i hope it close because I don't like (insert specific actor's name here). That would make it personal and pretty much pathetic. So stop doing it yourselves.

This economy is no laughing mater. There is almost 20% unemployment out there and people can barely eat much less pay for holiday gifts. This countries overwrought obsession with the fiat system is destroying the dollar and the respect this

Learn how to read a simple bar graph and you also can have the iq of at least 80 to see when a show is not working.
Stop taking things personally.

I think it's sad when anything closes/ comes to an end.

Whether it be a show, a restaurant, a store- anything. It may not have been up to par for a lot of people, but it represents someone's investing and losing a lot of money (sometimes all they had) and their hopes and dreams. It's heartbreaking when it has to close.

That's how I see it.

This is just like January of this year when so many shows including limited engaements were closing in January. I wonder if SNL will do another sketch of it.

Since there are a lot of rumors going around, I just want to know for sure: Is Ragtime closing on January 3rd or at all? Give an article to back yourself up. I don't want to create more rumors here.

it is 20% unemployment. They only count the number of claims on the unemployment benefits. Since people are running out of benefits they are not "counted"
they are also not counting people with "temporary jobs". Like working at the Gap. these are people who would much rather be working at Goldman but lost their jobs so they need a temporary one.
We are looking at about 18-19% unemployment right now. 10% is a farce.

If you combine "under-employment" and people who have stopped looking for work altogether with actual unemployment benefit claims, massofmen is pretty much on target with that percentage.

thank you frogs.
and just because you are studying macro-economics this year at delaware state doesn't mean you actually know anything about anything coraline.
