Tiger Woods and GM, Citigroup and the Mets
Written by Michael Vass
Today all eyes are pointing towards Citigroup and what they have been doing, or failing to do. Thousands have lost their jobs, tens of billions of dollars are being poured into the company. And unlike AIG, Citigroup is not sending their employees to luxury spas for a breather. Nor are they giving [...]
Obama’s new economic team - better or worse than now?
Written by Michael Vass
Finally we have seen President-elect Obama stick by a campaign promise. It took long enough. I am of course referring to the nomination of the Treasury Secretary position today. Tim Geithner will replace Paulson and Larry Summers will lead the National Economic Council, which is a positive to a degree.
I had remarked [...]
Citigroup - what was known and when?
Written by Michael Vass
This year Christmas has come before December, especially if you are a money center bank, a brokerage house, insurance company, or car manufacturer. For regular people though the holiday may not arrive at all. Such is the way things happen when the Government gets involved.
The news is out now that Citigroup will [...]
Did Prince say it?
Written by Michael Vass
The question is really what does Prince think. So far there is the voice of the New Yorker which states that Prince said
“You’ve got the Republicans, and basically they want to live according to [the Bible]. But there’s the problem of interpretation, and you’ve got some churches, some people, basically doing things [...]

Watchmen: 2nd movie trailer out
Written by Michael Vass>
I’ve spoken about the Watchmen movie previously, and my excitement continues to build. A new movie trailer has come out which sets the tone of the movie quite well.
That got my blog pumping. If you don’t see this movie, you must be dead. Ok, a bit extreme but I really think this [...]

Boycott Fugitive Days: Ayers deserves no profit from terrorism
Written by Michael Vass
If in 3 years Osama Bin Laden publishes a book about his attack on the Twin Towers, and his work with Al Quida, would you buy it?
Simple question. I think that most Americans agree that they would not. So why then would anyone buy Bill Ayers book Fugitive Days?
Bill Ayers is releasing [...]
Entertainers and the USO - giving to our troops
Written by Michael Vass
In the discussion of Iraq, Afghanistan and U.S. military forces there have been many things said over the years. During the early part of the Primaries, particularly the Democratic Primaries, it was a focal point of public interest as well as political campaigns. But for all this commentary one of the things [...]

50 cent, will have a program on MTV [...]
President Obama - the expectations start now

President Obama has won the 2008 election. I am as elated by that news as any African American or minority in America right now. But at the same time I am looking at what the nation said last night.
At 6pm initial exit poll results started to flow and there were several important [...]

As we all head out to vote today, and I do urge all my readers that are American citizens to vote, I stopped to notice a couple of the better quotes of this Presidential election. Now I won’t go all the way back to the Primaries, just looking at the McCain and [...]
Tread softly, a hero has passed
Written by Michael Vass
Sad news for the nation today. We lost a true hero, John Ripley. He was 69.
Some may be wondering who was this man, what did he do you might be asking. He did more than what anyone could have been expected to do under circumstances that would cause many to fail.
John Ripley [...]
