The problem is this account is only available through console. I’m away that you can configure an alias to forward the acct [...]

Life in the Fast Lane

Published by fredward under coffee, driving, personal

Training is officially over and I’ll be on the floor selling this week which I’m pretty psyched about it. Although, I’ll feel a little bit better when my business cards get here…Opened up an account at another bank since BB&T had screwed me over for the last time. As I was meeting with the banker [...]

I read an interesting article regarding gas prices the other day. Apparently, gas prices should actually be a little bit higher. This is stretching my knowledge of economics so correct me if I’m wrong–but if the demand was too much above supply would china be able to continue regulating gas prices and still maintain their [...]

While I was at the hotel I finished up Flight to Canada by Ishmael Reed– this postmodern satire about slavery…not really set in a fixed time. It’s set around the Civil War but throw in some [...]

Nothing like a little Beatles to get the morning going right proper! I’m hesitant to say it…but is it finally spring? Lol, with the exception of some showers on Saturday it’s mid 70s for the rest of the week. Besides, it just smells like spring. I was helping my friend and her mom move the [...]

Have you ever had a moment where you complained about little things while the big picture was excellent? I complain about the small things because that’s all that’s wrong…little insignificant things…while everything else is going perfect. I guess I’ve come to the realization if they’re so small and insignificant, why even talk about them? Focus [...]

That, was exactly what I needed. Aside from the fact I really needed to get out of town for at least a day it was both an entertaining and productive weekend. The hotel I stayed at was absolutely incredible…the room was a little on the small side but the decor was very nice. Went down [...]

I’m heading out to Louisville…Should be back sometime early Sunday morning depending on what I feel like getting into that night. I’m pretty sure the seelbach has internet access but between training and meeting up with a couple of my friends from Louisville I doubt I’ll really feel like getting online =P
I also found a [...]

I finished The Crying of Lot 49 tonight.. I was cracking up at the end of it. This book… had a disconnect. It was filled with puns and metaphors… Allusions filled throughout that didn’t seem to match up with anything. It left me pen and paper in hand writing down everything I can find and [...]
