Brace yourself for worst day of the year

LONDON (Reuters) - Be warned. Today is going to be the most depressing day of the year.

By using a complex mathematical formula, psychologist Cliff Arnalls has calculated the misery is about to peak in four days' time.

Fading memories of Christmas, mounting festive debts, foul weather, failed New Year resolutions and the long, dark nights create the perfect mix for gloom, says the Cardiff University expert who specialises in seasonal disorders.

4. Judging from my day, he might be right but its because of the economy
for me. The nasdaq isn't cooperating. And * idea of destroying the middle class in America is really bugging me today.
