Good afternoon! Wow, I really overslept today ... by 2 hours! Surprising because I had a nice day yesterday & was relaxing by playing 5 Card Slingo on Game Lounge from my massage chair when Pete got home. Today's payday which meant birthday shopping for 2 friends & paying bills with the rest. Why do I have more bills than money? Sheesh! I can't wait until all this is paid off ... I'm STILL paying for Christmas! HA ... this paycheck went almost 100% towards gifts (birthdays & Christmas). Oh well ... that's just the cost of being super popular & having all these people who love me! I can't afford anymore friends & may have to cut 1 or 2 loose at this rate. ;-) HAR-HAR. Anyway ... all that & I still owe Figi's, need to fill my truck, get groceries for the next 2 weeks, & have lunch money for those days when I grab lunch while I'm out. I need to double my income! LOL! Easter Egg Hunt @ LCFD tomorrow @ 2:p.

A single person with no dependents doesn't need much life insurance at all. You're just looking at enough to cover final expenses & maybe take care of any outstanding debts. In most cases, around $8k will cover funeral costs. But having no dependents is the key here. If you have a spouse or kids, they need to be taken care of after you're gone. In that case, I recommend you have 9X your annual income wrapped up in a good, level term life insurance policy.

Baby showers 101:
Who can attend? What about a gift?
You don't need to give a gift if you can't attend. In fact, a gift really isn't expected. Some very close friends of the expectant mother or parents, however, might still want to send a present to the shower or give it at some other time. It's totally optional.

In this Blake Edwards-directed adaptation of Truman Capote's novel, fortune hunter Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn) finds herself captivated by aspiring writer Paul Varjak (George Peppard), who's moved into her building on a wealthy woman's (Patricia Neal) dime.

From which of his favorite authors did Jimmy Buffett borrow the line “Be good and you will be lonesome” for his song “That’s What Living Is to Me”?

Nemesis:
a: One that inflicts retribution or vengeance b: A formidable rival or opponent.
The basketball team will be facing their longtime nemesis in the very 1st round of the playoffs.
Nemesis was the Greek goddess of vengeance, a deity who doled out rewards for noble acts & punishments for evil ones. The Greeks believed that Nemesis didn't always punish an offender immediately but might wait generations to avenge a crime. In English, "nemesis" originally referred to someone who brought a just retribution, but nowadays people are more likely to see animosity than justice in the actions of a nemesis.

Oprah Winfrey:
Before there was OWN, the TV network, or O, the magazine, there was just Oprah, the TV talk show host who had us every weekday at hello.

President Obama announces auto industry shakeup:
On this day in 2009, U.S. President Barack Obama issues an ultimatum to struggling American automakers General Motors (GM) and Chrysler: In order to receive additional bailout loans from the government, he says, the companies need to make dramatic changes in the way they run their businesses. The president also announced a set of initiatives intended to assist the struggling U.S. auto industry and boost consumer confidence, including government backing of GM and Chrysler warranties, even if both automakers went out of business. In December 2008, GM (the world's largest automaker from the early 1930s to 2008) and Chrysler (then America's third-biggest car company) accepted $17.4 billion in federal aid in order to stay afloat. At that time, the two companies had been hit hard by the global economic crisis and slumping auto sales; however, critics charged that their problems had begun several decades earlier and included failures to innovate in the face of foreign competition and issues with labor unions, among other factors.
President Obama's auto task force determined that Chrysler was too focused on its sport utility vehicle (SUV) lines and was too small a company to survive on its own. In his March 30 announcement, Obama gave Chrysler a month to complete a merger with Italian car maker Fiat or another partner. Shortly before its April 30 deadline, Chrysler said it had reached agreements with the United Auto Workers union as well as its major creditors; however, on April 30, Obama announced that Chrysler, after failing to come to an agreement with some of its smaller creditors, would file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, then form a partnership with Fiat. The move made Chrysler the first big automaker to file for bankruptcy and attempt to reorganize since Studebaker did so in 1933.
As for General Motors, according to the conditions Obama announced on March 30, the auto giant had 60 days to undergo a major restructuring, including cutting costs sharply and getting rid of unprofitable product lines and dealerships. Over the next two months, GM said it would shutter thousands of dealerships and a number of plants, as well as phase out such brands as Pontiac. Nevertheless, on June 1, 2009, GM, which was founded in 1908, declared bankruptcy. At the time, the company reported liabilities of $172.8 billion and assets of $82.3 billion, making it the fourth-biggest U.S. bankruptcy in history.
