I created a new video blog, ScrambledVideo.com, it will showcase all of the weird, wacky, bizarre, and random videos that I find on the Internet.
It’s here for all of you to enjoy! So go ahead and spread the word.
I will be updating and adding videos to it daily.
OoOops…
This is by no means an admission of guilt!
Dead!
David Kellermann, the acting chief financial officer for the *bunk* mortgage company Freddie Mac, was found dead at his home in Reston, Virginia. Authorities received a call from Kellermann’s wife this morning at 4:48am(4-22-09), indicating that she found his body in the basement. As of now it appears to be a suicide with no signs of foul-play.
You can check out the latest NYSE numbers for Freddie Mac HERE.
Kellermann was 41 years old and had been working with Freddie Mac for 16 years. He was appointed as acting CFO in September 2008, after Anthony Piszel stepped down.

Ok, so I’m a bit late on this post…seems how today is Tax day! But, none the less I’m still going to write about it.
Batteries Required!
Check out TaxDayTeaParty.com for the location of a “Tea Party” near you!(not to be confused with a lemon party…)
At first glance you might view the people attending these rallies to be radical idealists, or gun-toting Americans…but, what you’d be missing is these people are exercising their 1st Amendment rights, and are voicing their displeasure on the way things in Washington are being handled.
If it weren’t for people who take a stand against the government, who knows where we’d be right now…
Take a look at my post about “What Does The ‘Bill of Rights’ Mean for You?”

In keeping with my ‘distorted-mass-media’ theme, I’ve decided to go off again and point out the halfass backward-ness of how people go around repeating things they’ve heard on television.
Tune In or Be Left Out!
Ok, go…
It’s interesting to note the amount of people who hear something once and then repeat it to someone else as fact.
What’s even more alarming is the amount of people who repeat things they heard on the news(television), without having researched this information for themselves.
Very seldom does someone hear something and look further into it(self-education).
Rule of thumb:
Just because it’s on T.V. doesn’t make it real/factual.
(Just because the news reports it doesn’t make it true.)
There is a VERY closely calculated formula in News media.
This is the result of years and years of research and development.
The people who write the anchors’ scripts use key words which have been researched/polled to capture and hold(hostage) your attention.
For more on the manipulative-biased-media-formula read my post HERE.
Don’t be so trusting of anything coming out of the T.V. box…
