Bloomberg is reporting that the Federal Reserve has doled out $2 trillion in bailout loans and that they are refusing to disclose the recipients of those loans. Bloomberg is currently suing under the freedom of information act for that information to be disclosed.

You might be asking yourself, "$2 trillion? I thought the bailout was only $700 billion?"

Apparently the Fed, who up until now...

I've been meaning to post this here for a while. This video is from the Nashville presidential debate at Belmont University (my alma mater). I was there to protest the so-called two party system and to try to open some eyes to how we're being fucked everyday. My friend, Ben, had the megaphone and he was kicked off campus for speaking his mind. If you...

I was lying in the bed of a girl whose last name I didnt know and it was almost 3am. My Twilight Singers t-shirt, which simply says, Twilight is for Lovers with a little red heart next to the last word, was in the corner on...

Recently I decided that a writer is something that I should be. So, I tried to write. Unfortunately, It wasn't working out. I would sit and stare at the blank screen and nothing would come out. I would try to think of things to write about, but nothing came to mind. So I distracted myself by checking my email and seeing if anyone had updated...

here's a story:
I was parking cars the other day and I brought around this old Buick. The gentleman who owned it was clearly from, what I like to call, "the hills." As I help him get his bag into the trunk, something falls on the ground. I look down and there's a fucking revolver laying on the ground next to my feet....
