Credit Cards And Economy!

In times like this we all need to rethink our spending habits.  You should sit down and reevaluate your finances and investments.  One of the biggest thinks you should do is put away your credit cards.  You really don’t want to take on anymore debt.  Try to do more with less.  Think before you spend your money.  Stay away from the malls and anything you really don’t need.  I know what your say now; this will hurt our economy.  And yes, it may hurt the economy short term.  But it will also rebalance prices.  Right now the things you and I buy or so over priced it’s crazy.  And don’t worry about those stores and malls, their cash reserves are huge.  It’s time to take care of yourself, not everyone else.

Tony Stewart Fights!

Tony Stewart a new Sprint Cup owner and long time driver is at it again.  At last Thursday night’s USAC race at O’Reilly Raceway Park in Indiana, Tony went crazy on an officiating crew.  There is video of him assaulting at least two of them.   And the reason was that the crew wouldn’t let Stewart’s driver Tracey Hines back in the race after he had wreck.  Stewart was mad and went straight for the officiating crew.  This is not how he needs to get his anger across.  He’s one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR and will make a great owner.  But he really needs to get control over his anger.

Battle Of The Dolls!

The battle between the dolls Barbie and Bratz has ended with Barbie winning. An U.S. District Court jury in Riverside, Calif. decided that the toymaker MGA Entertainment did violate the copyrights by hiring the doll designer Carter Bryant, who worked for Mattel in 2000. The majority owner of MGA Isaac Larian stated that he’d have an opportunity to reveal new evidence. Larian has also guaranteed to appeal that case. He also stated that “it’s not over yet, we own the name Bratz. There’s no way they are ever going to get it.” This just shows how much doll making is big business. The only way this case will ever end is if the two companies settle between each other.
