Move Your Money

2009-12-30T12:09:00.003-05:00

I read "The Market Ticker" daily, and Karl has a great idea on how to really stick it to the so called "to big to fail" banks. He is calling for a nation wide movement to move your money out of the 4 big banks...

Bank of America
Wells Fargo/Wachovia
Citibank
JP Morgan/Chase

and move your money to local community banks! Here is a video explaining why we should do this and a website to help you move your money!

This will be one of my projects in 2010, and it will really call these banks to wake up and stop sticking to the little guys out there!

12 Days of Christmas: Toto Style!

2009-12-10T09:26:00.005-05:00

I have been listening the a 24 hour christmas music station for a while now, and I have heard this song a few times and really loved it....but they would never say the name of the song or who sang it! Finally through the power of the internet, I found out this song was sung by a 10 person a cappella group from Indiana University called Straight No Chaser (SNC). The final part of the 12 Days of Christmas is sung in the style of Toto's Africa song, which I find very cool!

I hope you enjoy as well!

Man! I wish we had this store around Lafayette! It is a story about a guy who sells all types of different and unique sodas!

It is a great 13 min video and once you start watching it you will want to watch it all the way to the end! This guy is just so down to earth!
