Don’t forget to vote.

I have been very disillusioned about the vast divide between what was promised to our country last election cycle and what was actually delivered. There was never a moment, though, when I felt I was not going to vote. Vote.

Could you live for one year without money?

I’ve seen people cut their spending, but nobody I know has eliminated it altogether. Josh Stevens, 28, is halfway through (his efforts are part of a contest created to drum up attention for Groupon, which is the second fastest company – to youtube – to achieve billion dollar valuation).

Best and worst Halloween candy…

I am in no denial whatsoever about the fact that I have been known to reach for a piece of candy or two or four (or more) during the whole Halloween thing. Here is a list, from My Health News Daily, of the best and worst candies (the article says that most of the candies are high in sugar so its best to make choices low in fat):

Best

1.  Jolly Ranchers

2.  Blow Pops

3.  Gobstoppers

4.  Pixy Stix

5.   Candy Corn

 

Worst

1.    Mr. Goodbar

2.   Nutrageous

3.   Snickers

4.   Baby Ruth

5.   Mounds
