The Week in Review: Money Issues #25

“The Week in Review: Money Issues” is my weekly blog research on financial topics that define us as Americans, and shape the way we should do business.

Is it Friday already?

Yea, I just looked at my calendar and found this to be true. It feels like a Wednesday or something, but I guess that’s a good thing. You see, I was so busy this week that the time just flew by! I really love this job … I get all the free coffee that I can drink (trust me: I down it by the pots) … a window to stare out of every now and again … and the best part is: I’m doing what I love to do (write)! I highly recommend this path in life to anyone who’s still searching for direction. Well, let me get back to doing it …

Here goes some good stuff I dug up this week:

BUZZNEWSROOM: Joaquin Phoenix on David Letterman – Entire YouTube Interview. Note to all aspiring actors: study this footage and learn from it! This guy is definitely starving for attention, and since it’s apparently staged I think Letterman’s rating have probably been dropping for a while as well. Hey agents to all these morons, stop with all the bad advice — making an ass out of oneself will not bring their career back!

Krunker.com: Satellites collide in space. This just in: NASA’s insurance company is pissed! They were collecting millions on the “satellite that will never get in an accident because it’s parked in outer space” for years, and now they probably found out that the Russians didn’t even bother to take a policy out, because their government isn’t based on greed and lies. Man, I bet NASA was glad they took out that “Uninsured/Underinsured” coverage!

irReigion.org: HINDUS PLAN COW URINE DRINK TO RIVAL WESTERN SODAS. This is just straight up nasty! I can’t believe someone in a boardroom had the audacity to actually present this to the rest of the team, or the fact that the Groupthink was so bad that it passed through with flying colors! Man, I’m going to throw up … I mean I always thought Red Bulls tasted like cow piss, but this is actually cow piss … Barrf!!!!

SMNNEWS: Limp Bizkit To Reunite For New Album and Tour. I was just thinking the other day, “When is Fred Durst’s crack habit going to put him in the poorhouse enough to come out with another great album?” Then another few thoughts popped into my mind, “Yea, this limp band never had a good album … these guys are posers … and way too many crappy bands are coming out with a reunion album these days!” Note to Fred Durst: You suck, give it a rest!

VEGANS OF COLOR: PETA “Protests” As The KKK. Wait a second … these wimping, whiney shits were in the middle of New York City in KKK gear … am I hearing this right? New York, what is wrong with you? Why on earth didn’t any of you kick the crap out of these “my father hates me” punks like you do in the movies? Oh, I know why … because you guys aren’t Philadelphians! Come on PETA … try throwing your paint on one of us, before you lose some teeth!

Hey, I have a great idea! Why don’t you join your fellow Remixers and tell us a little bit about your likes and dislikes through my feedback section. This way you can become a part of the frugal gang (we’re just a bunch of people who actually care where our money is going)! Also, this gives me a chance to know what you like to read, so that I can write it for you (as long as the requests aren’t too weird. Ah, forget it … make ‘em weird)!

If you haven’t done so yet, please subscribe to my feed or email! This way I can send you instant notifications of my latest posts, which I work on every Monday through Friday (and then Geoff comes in every now and then to grace us with his presence. Man, I would love to have that guy’s schedule. LOL).

Well, I’ll see you on Monday … I have a lot of thing to wrap up this weekend (I’m getting married next Saturday). Anyway, enough of my boring, personal stuff — have yourself a nice weekend!
