four quarters make a dollar. right?

All the grumbling in the news lately over the stock market/realestate/mortgage/credit areas leaves me feeling very inadequate…not that most things in life don’t already do that.

For instance, this article on boston.com seems like something really important and really troubling is happening, something I should know and care about, but I’ll be damned if I know what it is. All these words and numbers. Let’s just eat cookies instead.

Can’t someone smart explain it in usable terms to dumbbells like me?

Here is what I know about money: I never have enough of it.




3 songs for you to play with!

So, thanks to morgan, I’ve been listening to three bands in recent times that I’m kind of getting hooked on. three songs for you sample.

Country Mile – Camera Obscura

Hang Me Up To Dry – Cold War Kids

You Got Yr. Cherry Bomb – Spoon

(technically, camera obscura is not really a recommendation from Morgan, but he did have it on his ftp site for me to download, so he gets the credit. They were tops on my list of musicians to check out, so I also get the credit for knowing myself so well.)
