  • Fun with Photos! Saving the Humane Society one pic at a time...

    "I bought a 70-300 AFS/VR zoom lens for my Nikon D-50. Well, part of it at least. I plan on using it to make our local Harford County Humane Society more real- we're under major overhauls and no one wants to give us money! Plus, with the photos I sell, the money will be donated to the Humane Society as well. Thanks for giving me back some of my Daddy's taxes Mr. Bush!!"

  • Stimulus Towed Away

    "Never ending car problems. Repairs included: Towing to the repair shop, new Serpentine Belt, and a new Alternator. $388 dollars later my stimulus is about gone and I haven't even received my stimulus yet! I'm officially jealous of everybody having fun or saving their money. Best part of this ordeal is being forced to take public transportation and I will continue to do so after my car is fixed. "
