The Week in Review: Money Issues #67

“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.

Man, what a week I just had!

Ok, here goes the cool part: I was chilling in Key West, and got to live the Jimmy Buffett lifestyle for a while (I mean BEFORE he sold out, I mean!) and kicking back with my lady! Ready for the bad part? Ok, I was on antibiotics for this minor skin infection, and I shouldn’t have been in the sun or drinking … oops, too late! What resulted from this “oops”: a little sunburn (which hurts and itches) and a little thinning of hair on the top of my head (doc said it’s only temporary … he better be right! LOL). Ok, it’s not too bad, but it’s not cool, that for sure!

Well, let’s change the subject shall we? Good … here goes the best I could dig up for you this week! Enjoy:

Extra: Jaimee Grubbs Apologizes to Tiger Wood’s Wife. This media whore must be loving life right now! Seriously … I heard she used to be on a show named “Tool Academy”! Now how stupid do you think someone has to be to be on a show named “Tool Academy”! That’s right … really stupid! Hey lady, don’t quit your day job … you’re 15 minutes are almost over!

the reaction: Sarah Palin and “Climategate” propaganda. Is this dingbat still in the news? Doesn’t she have something better to do, like shoot innocent moose from a helicopter, with a high-power .50 caliber rifle? Or sit on her front porch and watch Russia? Yea, I’m so over this lady … can you imagine if she … no stop, the thought is too painful!

boingboing: The barf-worthy safety standards for school-lunch meat. School lunches worse than Burger King, McDonald’s and Costco? Man, that’s a freaking shame! Seriously, I knew their food sucked, but I always thought it was better than what those s@#tholes serve! Plus, there’s no old ass people’s lines at the cafeteria, like at the Costco (that place is a Mecca for the elderly)!

Discover: Awesomely bizarre light show freaks out Norway. Now this is some weird “Star Wars” s@#t right here! Really, what was that thing? Aliens? The Russian government’s latest weapon? Really … what the hell was that? It looked pretty cool, regardless! But still, kind of freaky. Sorry, Big Brother … didn’t mean to offend you.

About.com: Thrifty Thursday: Get Cash for Old, Unwanted Gift Cards. Here’s a great idea for when that cousin you don’t see so much send you the wrong gift card for the holidays (who the heck wants a Macy’s card? I’m a Sears man, myself)! Hey, at least they tried, right? Give ‘em a freaking E for effort! I need cash now though!

If you enjoyed what you just read, please do me a solid and join your fellow Remixers by giving me a few of those valuable thoughts (you know … the ones that are just sitting around your head) through my feedback section (this way you’ll get what you want: a website that actually cares that you exist, unlike those other b@#trds who only care about themselves. Pretty sweet, huh?). The reason for this request: I would really love to know what you want me to write about, is all! So go ahead and lay it on me thick — ok, not that thick, crazy person! LOL (don’t feel bad … I’m crazy too)!

And if you haven’t done so yet, please subscribe to my feed or email! This way I’ll be able to send you instant notifications of all my latest posts, which I pump out at a remarkable pace each and every Monday through Friday, and if you think you’re ever going to see one on the weekend then you better wake up from Lala-land, because it’s never going to happen! Those are my maxing and relaxing day!

Well, I’ll catch you back here on Monday, pal … I just finished all of my work for the week,  and I’m seriously ready to go do some fun stuff! Like watch the Eagles beat the Giants, drink a few cold one, and maybe just maybe watch some of my damn lost hair grow back (LOL … just kidding! The doc said it’s going to take a couple months). Ok, enough of my sad, sad songs, go have yourself a great weekend!
