EVERYONE HAS A STORY

ok. I am not sure how many of you watch the Today show, and I know this post is going to come off as mean spirited. The Today show has been doing a segment called Everyone has a story in which they honor a special person with a specially written song written by Kathy Lee Gifford and sung by usually a Broadway singer or someone. Great stories that are very hearttouching are shared, but then they sing a CHEESY song to that person. It is sang in that cabaret style very cheesy. Why can't they give the person a vacation or money? Please Today show stop letting Kathy Lee write songs .

Okay, so I am watching the news tonight, and apparently somewhere in Madison county this dude has an alligator in his pond. Crazy!

Apparently in the 90s there were alligator farms around here. Great to know. Even better is that right down the road from my house it is pretty much a swamp.

This is another reason why I am still wondering if I want to continue living in the boondocks.

rich learning cheap

Ok. So I have noticed a lot of the talk shows lately are focusing more on teaching money saving concepts, things that us broke folks already know how to do.
Shopping at thrift stores
Yardsaling
Buying at walmart
Buying inexpensive items that look like their more expensive friends (thought this was extremely funny)
The concept that you can find things to wear in your own closet without having to go shopping (duh)

I just thought it was funny. Could you see one of these high enders snubbing their nose up at the Potters house? Its sad what entertains me.
