Pyramid Buried in Peru, Found by Satellite

Headline is misleading..... 9000 square miles would make this pyramid 45,000 times larger than the great pyramid in Egypt. Someone didn't do their math right, or they didn't carry the 2 in their calculations...Ancient Peru pyramid spotted by satellite. The researchers believe it was built by the Nazca Civilization, which are the same cool dudes that Created the Inca Nazca Lines in Peru.

When Forclosure Hits, What Do People Leave Behind?

You will be amazed at what people leave behind when they are forced to leave their homes. It is even more astounding what happens to all of it once the bank owns the home. Modern day ghost towns with beautiful 3/2 with pool homes on each block.

Contact Your Senator or Congressman in opposition to this 700 Billion Bailout

Capitol Hill switchboard (202) 224-3121

Congress Contact page has all the contact information with phone numbers and e-mail addresses. You can search by state or by zip code. Contact them and let them know your opinion on this major issue.

You can use This Senator List to find the same information about your States Senators.

DO THIS..... DO IT TODAY... This administration has a horrible habit of waiting to the last minute, and then rushing the legislation after striking fear into the country. (like Bush did this evening on all the news outlets).

I do not want to bail out wall street, they made bad decisions and they should be held accountable for those decisions. If a major market correction will happen because of this, fine! Feeling this financial pain may be the stimulus our nation needs to start living within our means again. We used to be a producing nation, we are now a debtor nation. Financial contentment is something our culture has lost. We don't save to buy things, we buy almost everything on credit, and when your paycheck is deposited in your bank, a huge portion of it has already been spent on all the debt you owe.

If a crack addict was having a crisis because he was out of drugs, would we "bail him out" and give him money to buy more drugs? Absolutely not!

Going through this process will be painful, but what if this "solution" doesn't work? Then we will be forced into take our medicine, but it will taste 700 Billion Dollars worse.

It took me maybe 5 minutes to send e-mail today to my senators and congressman. This is worth 5 minutes of your time.

Have you Noticed Your Grocery Bill Going Higher Lately?

You may have noticed that your weekly or monthly grocery bill has increased over the last 3-4 months, but have you also noticed that the products that have increased in price have actually been repackaged so that you get less product for the same price, or a hgher price??? I don't even know what to call this pre-anti-inflationary action by food companies?
