2008 is over.  2009 is here.  Tacoma status report:

-The economy is in the basement
-Unemployment is way up
-Mortgage rates are down (approaching 5% again)
-Businesses big and small are failing like crazy
-Many houses are for sale, but few are actually selling
-All the late December snow has melted
-Avalanches have closed mountain passes and taken several lives already this season

Tacoma, what have we to look forward?
