1. Chat with a vulture investor.

2. The Geithner banking plan is not confusing; under my interpretation it is explained in a 45-second Japanese video.

3. Stephen Dubner interviews me, including a discussion of which smell I dislike and what I hope to spend more money on.

Thanks for the bank link. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a real live nightmare.

So, I link to the article on the Vulture Investor, who talks about the abysmal state of the economy, and before I get the article, I get a 30-second ad from Ralph Lauren/Polo, with a link to begin shopping. Huh?

“Megabucks. In all cases it might be harder to make new friends in a sincere way. Perhaps all of them are curses of a sort.”

True, that’s why I’ve always appreciated this kooky tutorial on how to secretly and anonymously collect lottery winnings. Not that I’ll ever enter a lottery, but it’s definitely what I’d do. I’d never tell a single person.
