Election Day: You Can Vote However You Like
Today is Election Day. And it is important to exercise your civic duty/right and head out an vote.
Both Barack Obama and John McCain claim to be best for small and home business, but only you can decide who will best serve your interests. So, if you didn't vote early, head to the polls today and cast your vote.
However you like.

I loved this when I heard it sampled on NPR. I thought it extremely funny: More "proof" that Barack Obama is a communist.

Friday Fun Video: How the Financial Crisis Works
One of the most concise descriptions of one of the main causes of the financial crisis can be found with this video. Of course, some factors are missing, but the video does a great job of describing the basics of corporate accounting and why we're in this mess. The smiley faces make it fun. :)

Friday Fun Video: Paris for President
By now, you probably know about the flap concerning John McCain and his using Paris Hilton in a campaign ad. (He used Britney Spears as well.) And you might have even seen this response.
But I love it. Paris is *totally* protecting her brand.
