‘Project Runway’ Season Six Finale Leaves Me Stumped
Who won ‘Project Runway’?
Once again, “Project Runway” has managed to remind me that I know absolutely nothing about fashion. Either that or the people who get to decide what is good fashion are crazy. Irina, who did show she was a very good designer throughout the season, was the “Project [...]
Does the Declining Dollar Affect You?
Current State of Affairs for the Dollar
Under both the Bush and Obama administrations, U.S. government spending – financed by government borrowing – has skyrocketed, resulting in a prolonged decline of the value of the dollar. This trend escalated with the Federal Reserve’s reaction to the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis and [...]
Why Worry About Bank Failures?
Depositors Must Retain Confidence
Depositor confidence in the banking system is vital to the working of the modern economy. Banks lend out money assuming that they are not going to face a situation where all their depositors demand to withdraw funds simultaneously. At the same time, depositors entrust their money to [...]
Bad Reviews Don’t Dampen ‘New Moon’ Box Office Sales
Bad reviews, great cash haul
On Rotten Tomatoes, “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” reviews were 70 percent “rotten.” As of now 10 a.m. Friday morning, it has gotten 86 bad reviews. At Metacritic, only 46 percent of the reviews were good. However, I’d bet my emergency money that this film will [...]

Costco and Coke Break Ties As Pricing Dispute Bubbles Over
Ties likely will be mended
Like a couple of runaway teenagers proclaiming they “don’t need nobody!” Coke and Costco are sticking to their respective guns. The result is that Costco won’t restock Coke products until the companies reach an agreement. Costco and Coke couldn’t agree on pricing, so Costco said it [...]
Mohawk Grenade | New Addition to World of Warcraft
Mt. T introduces mohawk grenade
We all know at least one. World of Warcraft players are among us, sometimes in unexpected places. For instance, I wouldn’t have pegged Mr. T for a World of Warcraft fan, but he is the new spokesman for the online game that has captivated more than [...]
Manitoba’s Judgment of Payday Loans Ignores Reason, Commerce
A Reasonable Argument, Rebuffed With Extreme Prejudice
Governments both large and small often take it upon themselves to decide what consumers should or shouldn’t be able to do with their own money. Call this the “nanny state” mentality if you will. Regardless, it seems that a population is somewhat less than [...]
Box Office Weekend: ‘2012′ Takes Top Spot
The end of the world as we know it
The world is going to end — again. Previews of and commentary surrounding the film “2012″ remind me of the constant speculating and paranoia during the two years or so before the year 2000 hit. I’m not really sure exactly how rumors [...]

Palin publicity parade

An interview with Sarah Palin will air [...]
Movie Reviews: ‘Pirate Radio’ Versus ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’
Predicting the unpredictable
I am a pretty decisive person. For instance, when I saw the “Pirate Radio” trailer, I decided less than a minute in, “I definitely want to see that movie.” When I saw the “Fantastic Mr. Fox” trailer, I thought “I definitely do not want to see that movie.”
Based [...]
Water on the Moon | Not a Business Opportunity
NASA finds water on the moon
Yes, NASA is reporting today that it has found water on the moon. How did they do that? Well, to put it in layman’s terms (because that is the only language I speak), they sent a rocket with all kinds of sensory instruments hurtling toward [...]
Gizmo5 Gives Google More Voice | Is Google on a Spree?
Another big purchase for Google
Four days after Google announced it is acquiring AdMob, a mobile advertising service, for $750 million, Google announced it will acquire Gizmo5, a voice-over-IP service. I guess that’s what happens when you don’t have to talk to a loan company in order to buy out other [...]
Target $3 Appliances | Black Friday Chaos to Ensue
Target Black Friday ad says $3 appliances
Black Friday. I understand why people head to the stores in droves when retailers advertise great in-store deals for Black Friday. What I don’t understand is why stores do this, especially in the case of Target’s $3 appliances, which are being publicized in the [...]
On Larry King, Carrie Prejean Video Shows Her Character
First Amendment reminder
Carrie Prejean, who is famous for several semi-scandalous things I’ll list off later, appeared on “Larry King Live” last night. During the brief interview, she showed the world that she is a naive, condescending prima donna. Of course, I could be just another member of the “liberal media” [...]
Why is ‘Brothers’ the Movie so Highly Anticipated?
Watch ‘Brothers’ movie trailer
Maybe it’s the mixture of themes such as war, family, love, death and infidelity. Maybe it’s the tear-jerking “Brothers” movie trailer. However, I am willing to bet it’s the cast: Natalie Portman, Jake Gyllenhaal and Tobey Maguire top the list of actors in “Brothers.” Put together the [...]
