Sorry to hear things are so crappy - even if your company is doing well
thanks to the economy.  (what business are you in?)

Do get to another vanagon event, they are really good fun.  Buses by the
Beach, in Rockford MI, sounds like it's near you, in May, and it's a great
bunch of people.

Venting occasionally is okay, as long as you're not picking on someone else.
