Learning About...

Ponzi schemes...of all things.

This article about JP Morgan Banks "involvement" with Bernard Madoff made me want to read more about Ponzi schemes (aka pyramid schemes). Here's the opening paragraph from the New York Times article about them in general:

In a Ponzi scheme, potential investors are wooed with promises of unusually large returns, usually attributed to the investment manager's savvy, skill or some other secret sauce.

See, you can learn new things everyday. J

Cancer horoscope for Jan 23, 2011

You may be a afraid to hope for the best in an upcoming decision. That's because that decision is out of your control. You have little say in it. Or so you think. But from the very beginning, and maybe even before, you have been focused on the outcome. You have felt positive vibrations, as though everything will be okay. You have imagined or fantasized about things working out well. And you have talked about it as though it was going to work out in your favor. You have exercised your control, Moonchild. And the outcome will be exactly as you hoped it would be.

My Horoscope for Today

Daily Horoscope for Cancer Jan 8 2011 If you could jump into a time machine and travel forward, you would be able to see a very bright and rewarding future just ahead. You would know that your hard work paid off, and that the relationships you built have remained good and solid. You would also be able to see that by continuing to believe in the virtue of love and in the power of positive thinking you achieved a certain dream that others may have said was beyond your reach. Since you don't have a time machine, Moonchild, this is a little glimpse into the future, just for you. Copyright (c) DailyHoroscope.

because it's Justin Bieber. But Kanye remixed it. With a Wu-Tang track. *sigh*

Good Luck With That, Lawyer! (tags: strange news, cincinnati, smh-worthy)

Bull ride brings suit against Cadillac Ranch

An Alaskan lawyer who busted his mouth while riding a mechanical bull at a Downtown bar is suing the bar for at least $25,000 because it didn't make him sign a waiver that would have explained he could get hurt by riding a machine designed to throw a human being from it.
