You forgot to add that it is Bush's plot to keep all Americans at home unless they are carrying a M-16.

I am not worried about the dollar. I am happy that I converted several years of living expenses in Euros and Sterling a couple of years ago. However, if I need to shop for electronics and other expensive items, I buy them in the US or Dubai (the dirham is pegged to the dollar) and bring them back to Malta.

The weak dollar is good for exports and domestic tourism. Not so good if you want to travel to Europe or buy European stuff.
