What is with all the tattoos in the NBA

What is the deal with all of the tattoos on all of the NBA players. By looking a them you would guess that people were afraid to tell them how stupid they look before they got them. I don't think I've seen anyone with a good tattoo on them. If I were David Stern I would make them play in long sleeve t shirts. Does Allen Iverson really think he looks cool. I don't get it. Can someone please fill me in?

B of A will not stop sending me junk mail

I don't know how many hours I have spent on the phone trying to get the junk mail to stop. I finally went into my branch and I was assure that it will stop. It didn't. I have a plan. I will keep you posted as to my next step. if you have any ideas on how to get Bank of America to stop sending me crap I would be happy to listen.

McCain is an Idiot on the gas tax vacation

John McCain is an idiot to suggest that suspending the gas tax for the summer would be a good idea. The oil companies will jump on this one and raise prices anyway. Great idea mr politician guy. I would rather have the money go to roads than the oil companies. What an ass. I'm sure it was a political move to take a shot at Obama. Obama does not want to remove the tax.

Travel in Europe is Expensive

If you go to Europe this summer bring your wallet. I just got back from Ireland and the Isle of Man and I could not believe how expensive it was. Gasoline was over $9 a gallon and a meal that would normally cost $25 would be over $60. Nothing is cheap over there. I planned a head and brought a lot of power bars and nuts as snacks. I was glad that I did. The water out of the tap there is as good as any bottled water that you would have.

High Gas Prices, Not really compared to Ireland

I just got back from Ireland and gas was over $9 a gallon. I wont complain about the $3.50 a gallon cheap fuel in the US. Gas was 1.23 Euros per liter in Ireland. One gallon would be 3.79 litres. It takes 1.62 Dollars to make up 1 Euro. Yes it is expensive.

Credit Crunch hits Ireland

I just got back from Belfast. I could not believe how many houses were for sale. There was a Sherry Fitzgerald sign on every corner. Real Estate signs are everywhere. I heard that values were dropping as well. I spoke with an estate agent who told me that Ireland is always behind the US by six months. I even saw a sign advertising 100% financing. I don't think that they learned anything from our mistakes.

Euro vs. the Dollar

We are getting hosed. Check out the rates from Halifax on savings accounts. These guys were all over the airwaves. I only get just a hair over 3% on my savings at HSBC Direct. Some of these accounts pay over 7%. I might consider opening an account over there. Keep in mind that you will lose about 3% of your value as a commission to convert from dollars to euros.
