Frankly, I would have more respect for payday lenders if they would simply pull a gun on their customers and shout: "This is a stickup!" At least they would be honest about their intentions.

What else would you call charging someone 400 percent to upwards of 900 percent interest but robbery?

The mob offers better rates and easier terms than payday lenders.

The influential $42 billion-a-year payday lending industry, thriving from a surge in emergency loans to people struggling through the recession, is pouring record sums into lobbying, campaign contributions, and public relations – and getting results.

Happy living is nothing more than living a normal life free from undue pressures, problems and tensions. The Art of Happy Living is not a complicated kind of art difficult to learn rather a simple art of living well, eating well, thinking well and feeling well. Just tune up your mind to enjoy every moment of life and let the happiness follow you. Moreover, spending precious time talking to God can give you peace and thus, giving you happiness all through out the day.

They say that inspiration is an effect of the instability of mind. They say that mind escapes the clutching grip of everyday life and ventures somewhere deeper, into subconsciousness and there… there it finds a source of inspiration. Don’t know much about subconsciousness but it seems that the rest is true. Who would have thought it: the ordinary flu can be a source of inspiration.

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said today the proposed insurance rate hikes from Anthem Blue Cross in California that we've been writing about will serve as a backdrop for President Obama's health care summit next week.

Gibbs struck an ominous tone, suggesting that if reform doesn't pass now, there are more increases to come. It's an issue the Democrats seized on recently as they attempt to push a final measure over the goal line.

Don't be so liberal that you ignore the good things, because it don't look so liberal, then you wonder why Obama's polling numbers are dropping.

Remember how Brown won an election campaigning, using Cheney's rhetoric.

"Hit The Dick's crowd in the gut with this one, being that they actually believe they know how to fight wars, & they don't.

One of the many attributes that I love about Congressman Grayson is that he is consistent in his messaging and has never wavered since joining Congress on his battle to ensure that those that were responsible for 'the financial meltdown' of our nation, will not and should not go unpunished.

your father’s hat, your mother’s boots and some costume pants and long-sleeved shirt. All you have to have is your imagination.
A Little Change and a Maid Costume

Looking for an interesting costume? Why don’t you try wearing a maid costume for a change? It’s different. It’s not the usual cat suit for cat woman or any of those vampire varieties. If you are tired of the classic scary party costume or the cliché fiction book characters, then why not mix it up and try being a maid for the day? Just give it a little attitude, and surely you will be a show stopper.
