Musical musings of a bum

I am a hi-tech computer geek that has been struck quite hard by the recent economic crisis. The situation, though rather shitty, has given me some time to step out of the mad race and look at life from a different perspective.
One amusing analogy to my situation has sprung to mind a few days ago. In this analogy we are all playing a game of musical chairs. About a year ago somebody took out many of the chairs and stopped the music.
I am waiting for someone to play the music and put some more chairs back in.
