Poor Floyd, Trumped Again!
2009-09-18 18:10:00 This Saturday night is an exciting night for fight fans. You have the UFC 103 being stacked up against Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s bout against Manuel "Pee-drinking"Marquez. The HBO, fight night is being picked as this year's biggest boxing event. With Mayweather Jr., an undefeated champion, taking on Marquez a worthy opponent, the card should promise the fans the distance and a bang for their buck. Despite this accurate match-up, UFC 103, a PPV will most likely stomp on it....
You may as well be poor in Europe
2009-09-10 16:29:00 A year ago today, Bob and I were in Switzerland in one of the most beautiful places I'd ever been in my entire life. I keep thinking about it and truly cannot believe that it's been a year! So much has happened. Do you realize that this time last year was when Sarah Palin entered the public stage and the entire economy collapsed? Everyone was afraid that McCain had the momentum and Obama would lose the election. Things were completely falling apart. This time last year our house was on the market, the global economy was collapsing, Bob and I were both unemployed, near penniless and hiking the Swiss Alps. How? Why? What? Well, I'll tell you....

Plentyoffish.com Login Issue - Poor Customer Service?
2009-06-09 00:39:00 (Firefox displays that Plentyoffish.com server is down)You've more than likely heard the story of successful internet entrepreneur Markus Frind. He's the brains behind a completely free dating site, Plentyoffish.com (down as of 5PM EST 6/8/09). The website operates as Markus' one man project, although he has admitted to hiring a staff of 6 or so to help out in a small office. He's made as much as 10 million dollars per year with his free dating site, just by running Google Adsense ads, banners and various affiliate ads such as an ad for "Double Your Dating", a $40 downloadable book. And the most surprising aspect of them all (or envy-inspiring) is he claims to work just a few hours a day, 10 hours a week and earns millions of dollars.Markus find programmed and created Plenty of Fish all on his own, which in and of itself is amazing. Not that the site is beautiful, but it certainly became useful and profitable for what it is. Recently, Markus noted on his May 1, 2009 blog t...

Are you House Poor?
2009-05-08 17:17:00 The great American Dream has always revolved around owning a home. Sure, having the 2.3 kids, the cushy corporate job and the stylish car to drive to work everyday are part of the myth, too, but nothing quite summed up Americana quite like the white picket fence. But if recent economic numbers are any clue, this dream is becoming a nightmare for many in the US.According to date released by the United States Census Bureau, an increasing number of homeowners are spending a larger and larger amount of their incomes on housing than in previous years. People in 49 out of 50 states reported an increase. The only state that didn?t, Alaska, spent the same amount. The report showed that people are spending around 21 percent on their housing needs, up from 19 percent in 1999.This is a huge problem for first-time buyers who may now be priced out of housing markets all across the country. Economists point to rises in home prices in the last 7 years, as well as higher interest rates, coupled wit...
A Poor Little Bat-Man Has to Lay Down on This T-shirt
2009-04-28 08:33:00 Batman is a bad man, because he forces a little "bat man" to do job he doesn't like. The searchlight with a bat-shaped insignia over the lens is actually the "Bat-signal" that cracks into the night sky of Gotham City. It creates a cool bat-symbol on a passing cloud -- an important signal for Batman when Gotham City police need him to fight over a crime. However, little know when bat-shaped insignia is broken, poor little "bat man" has to come to work. It seems like he doesn't have any any other except for having this job. Become a hero is not always so glamorous after all.I imagine a re-design of this graphic tee with glow-in-the-dark print showing bat-logo, it must be cool. But even without special print, this tee is still pretty much my hilarious pop culture T-shirt of the day ($18).

It takes a rich man to pour such scorn on the poor

Maybe, during all his years raising Ł50bn for the likes of Railtrack and EuroDisney, Mr Freud sat up night after night with the ProPlus, studying the issue until dawn broke over a lavish home far removed, we may guess, from the sink estates he claims he wants to salvage from workless despair.And yet, by his own words, it seems not.

It's The Birthday of R.L. Burnside - Blues Story - Poor Black mattie
2008-11-23 14:00:00 R. L. Burnside was born on November 23, 1926, and he passed away on September 1, 2005. May God rest his soul. I imagine that if heaven has a front poarch he is sitting out there playing his guitar.He was a Delta blues singer, songwriter, and guitarist who lived much of his life in and around Holly Springs, Mississippi. I remember when he came on my radar screen back in the early 1990s, I played a cassette tape of his over and over. Wanting everybody I knew to hear this music. You could tell that he had been playing and living the blues all his life. Too bad that he only received reconigition in the latter part of his life.

So now I'm all the way down the hall from Joe, which sounds nice in theory, but it seems like he's in my office now even more than when I was next door to him. That's mostly because the back-up computer was moved to my office. We really only use it if we need to scan something (which is maybe twice a year) or if we need to pull a job off of--or put a job onto--the archive. By the way, Joe dubbed the backup drive "Hogwarts", which he thinks is hilarious. Anyway, no sooner had I sat down in the new office, Joe's in here saving old jobs to the archive and checking every ten minutes to see if it's finished.
