amazed people have any money left to spend at PF Changs

Are you talking about the one immediately south of the Common? Never understood the attraction of that place, what with some of the great places just a few blocks away in Chinatown.

they also revised the survey so that earlier month's unemployment rate went up .1 and this month's was .1 less than under the old survey. they also don't post the unadjusted unemployment rate in the same release. that probably caught up with the 5.7 to 5.9 percent rate. January's has the potential to shoot up to 6.5 to 7.0,but that will be factored out as seasonal 'noise' since the govt expects many of those to rehired by late spring. headline unemployment rate was 7.3 percent at the peak in 1992 but the actual unadjusted rate was 8.4 percent unemployed.
