Bad Economy…..
I think something is wrong with me. All everyone talks about is the horrible economy, and that it’s going to get worse and worse…. So today, we go out and spend $2000 with the intent to spend about $10000 more.…
What have you read? I got 41
The BBC apparently says most people will have only read 6 of the 100 books here. (That seems ridiculous to me…. Anyway.)http://www.bbc.co.uk/arts/bigread/top100.shtml Instructions: [Copy and paste into a new note on your profile.] 1) Look at the list and put…
