It’s funny how clear things can look after it’s over as opposed to when it’s happening right now.
I know that a lot of people use places like Jiffy Lube and other quick stop oil changers like it. I think it is imperative that you see this video. I don’t think it’s wrong to go to them, but you should definitely watch their every move.

This type of scam is not isolated to that area of the country. I plan to keep my eyes on my vehicle when it’s being serviced, especially when they try to sell me extras.
I saw this story on Digg and had to post about it.
Apparently Emily started a blog a few weeks ago, back in June 2006, to be able to vent her frustrations. I started reading from her first post, and knowing the last update, I could see the signs throughout the past few weeks.Â
She found out through a Private Investigator between the time she started the blog and a week ago that her husband had been cheating on her with her best friend, Laura. Just a few days before she found out, her best friend had passed out at her house from drinking so much, and had to spend the night.
The entire story is incredible. Her last post included a picture of a billboard close to her (soon-to-be-ex) husband’s workplace that outted him for the dirtbag that he is. I can’t say I feel bad for the guy. I think this may cure some men from the temptation to cheat.Â
If you missed the link above to her blog, I’ll post it again just to be sure you can find it.

Let me know what you think of her story.
Al Gore used multiple references while trying to scare everyone into thinking that global warming was civilization’s fault. There is an opposing argument to each claim in his movie, but I don’t have the time or energy to get to every one of them at once.
One reference used was the fact that hurricanes have caused many times more damage monetarily in recent years as opposed to back in the 1940s.
The one thing he fails to mention is the fact that the population of homes and businesses increased dramatically as well as the property value of those homes and businesses.
I know I’m going to mess up on the numbers so I’ll just give you a link to this VERY INTERESTING ARTICLE.
Ok… I realize it has been a while since my last post. I guess I was tired after finishing the first semester. My first week in my second semester has told me two things.
I don’t have to do as much creative work this semester. One of my classes is going to be much easier (for me) to breeze through. The other class is getting into some funky stuff that is very complicated.
Accounting is easy (in my head). Putting it on paper is an entirely different story. The whole point of Accounting is putting it on paper. It is a written account of finances. You have to duplicate or triplicate credits and debits all over the page to double check yourself, and have proof for financial institutions to verify. I hated having to write out how I solved a problem in math in school. I HAVE to do it now, because that is the point of the entire class!!!
I have already fallen into a sense of boredom having to look at the same numbers more than once. I just have to focus for 10 more weeks, and pray that I can stay awake through each lesson. If you have any tips that can legally keep me awake, I’m all ears (or is it eyes in this case?)…
I have finally finished my first semester back to school. I have a final average of 99.2 and 95.9 in my two classes, and both averages are higher than they were at the middle of the semester.
I knew that the semester would be short, but in the middle of it, I thought it wouldn’t end. Two more weeks of rest before the next semester starts… I’m trying to enjoy it.
