An Open-Letter Rant Regarding the Arbitrivial Nature of Human Beings.
Remember the chorus to that old Janet Jackson song, Escapade? “Come on, Baby, let’s get away. Let’s save our trouble for another day. Come go with me, we’ve got it made. Let me take you on an escapade!” Yeah, that one. Well, she kind of had it wrong. I mean, saving our troubles for another […]
R, S, U, and Z are for UNDERWRITERS checking credit REPORTS for SECURED Credit Cards which are ZERO Risk! When our finances got “behind”, we considered selling our children on the black market, but realized this would be an impossible crime to hide from authorities; also, we very much enjoy our children’s company, so we […]
I really, really, really (times) 100 hate the SNAP Food Stamp Challenge. Before I delve into a more logical, reasoned explanation, let me give it to you off the cuff. I hate it because it’s fucking embarrassing to listen to people who have not even the slightest clue what it means to be POOR talk […]
You must have long-range goals to keep you from being frustrated by short-range failures. ~ Charles C. Noble I’m creating a Life Plan between now and the end of the year. You should totally do one too! I already asked you a couple times, and you keep not answering me. Do my armpits stink […]
Go to “Making My Life Plan Week 1” Yikes! Our weekend was so heavy-hitting due to my daughter’s birthday party, and the fact that my hubz had to work both Saturday + Sunday, along with the added treasure of me not working ahead like I’m supposed to, that I neglected to get anything posted. That’s […]
So every year I mean to do this — Make a Life Plan — and every year it’s suddenly the middle of January and I’m like… Oh. This year is cool, though, because I actually looked at a calendar with regard to my blog, and realized — holy shit! I can totally do this […]
Someone recently wrote about the split between black and white Americans in the recent presidential race. But I think the author missed the point. It wasn’t about skin color, it was about representation. But first, let me back up a step. For the minorities who voted for Obama merely because he is black… well, […]
The World 4 Realz learns about saving money! It’s been a really long time since I wrote anything about personal finance or saving money. It didn’t seem very popular with the snarky crowd. Not that I’m complaining! Money and economic types of things are boring. I’m glad to know you agree. Makes me feel less […]
I know it’s been a while since I discussed The $100 Startup: Reinvent the Way You Make a Living, Do What You Love, and Create a New Future by Chris Guillebeau. That whole “Month of Controversy” thing threw me off schedule. But now I’m all ranted out, ready to hit some serious subject matter and […]
Compact Discs are the shizzle! The first Compact Disc I ever purchased was the self-titled 1989 album Bad English, because I loved (still love) the song “When I See You Smile”. My second Compact Disc was a gift from a friend who knew I adored (still adore) Madonna — the spectacular 1990 compilation album, The The […]
