I Have the Solution to the Financial Crisis in This Country.

It's a really simple 1 paragraph plan:

Instead of giving these financial institutions $700 BILLION dollars to bail them out, why don't you give the rest of us who are struggling to get out of debt a decent cut of that money. Then the banks will get their money back from their stupid investment mistakes and the rest of us will be able to use our hard earned money to save up for solid down payments on a home, instead of trying to put as little money down as possible since we aren't able to save with our school loan and credit card debt. Everyone will be able to get their finances back on track.

The $700 billion won't pay off everything for everyone, but in my experience, getting rid of one credit card with a high interest rate and one school loan, I would be able to finally save what I need for a really good downpayment. If this would have occurred 3 years ago when I had to move home while looking for a real job, I would have lots of money to put down on a condo right now.

Simple. Very simple.

I should run for president.

Today - Not So Good

There was no bacon on the salad bar today. Not even broccoli, either! Sad.

Today is a Good Day

For one reason and one reason alone: bacon.

I went downstairs to get a salad to eat with my sandwich...and they had real bacon to put on top of the salads. I love salads even more now. Happiness!!! :)

Happy Tuesday everyone! I know mine is!

A Dream Come True

Tom Brady is out!! Apparently the Chiefs have perfected the Carson Palmer leg roll that Kimo von Oelhoffen executed perfectly on January 8, 2006.

I hate Tom Brady. I hate the Patriots. It's a 2001 thing. And I saw the news today...it's my dream come true!

After years of yelling "Tom Brady belongs on his back like the whore that he is", he will be on his back, laid up with a messed up knee for months...and not playing the rest of the season! :)

Happiness, thy name is Bernard Pollard!

It's Official

Apparently if it's not on my work Outlook calendar - I will never notice. I will never notice that one of my favorite bands that plays one of my favorite songs is playing. Yup - completely missed it:

I guess I'll just do what I always do. Buy the CD and talk about how I should have been there.
