Ok, first of all, I know I was reading the Huffington Post. Don't give me any grief over it. I consider myself to be on a reconnaissance mission. But I digress. So, Erica Possin, a college student, is smart enough to realize how important her credit score is, and wants to check it before she tries to purchase a car. So far, seems pretty responsible. But the brains stop there. After clicking through page after page and entering personal information, including her credit card information, she says she was surprised to see charges from a program she didn't realize she enrolled in, and is now suing Experian.
And now it's a class action suit.
The dumbing down of America has got to stop.
ATTENTION PEOPLE: If you are being asked for your credit card information, it isn't to send you a birthday card! And frankly, if you think you should be receiving something for free, why would they need your credit card info in the first place!
Every week I deal with someone who didn't read their contract and then they are upset with me when they don't like the details. And our contracts don't have fine print! I'm talking one paragraph, regular font. Slow down and read it. Understand what you are signing.
Take responsibility for your actions.

Demon Sheep or Sleestak?
I finally watched the demon sheep video (below) about 10 minutes ago. It was hilarious! If you don't have 3 minutes to watch the video, then scroll to 2:20.
I think if I looked in a mirror, I would still have that same dumbfounded look on my face. What the heck was that???? Who approved that ad? Someone, somewhere, watched that video and thought it was a good idea! Maybe even 2 people did! I hope not 3.
And who is narrating that? I thought Paul Frees from the Haunted Mansion had already died! Did they bring him back? And where did they get those red eyes? If Carly Fiorina wanted an ad like this, should have raised a little more capital and put it towards the quality of the ad so it wouldn't look like a remake of the Sleestaks in Land of the Lost.

Oh Sweet Victory! It's the little things in life...
This is for anyone who's ever been stuck behind a parked train! Hopefully it helps a little bit...
Last night my hubby gave a ticket to a Conductor! Oh sweet victory. It's kind of like the people who drive 10+ miles BELOW the speed limit. Drives me nuts. He gives them tickets, too, for impeding traffic.
