Any guess what this might be? Nope, it’s not a parking lot … it’s I-94 turned into a parking lot! I was with a couple of buddies coming home from breakfast in St. Paul last weekend when traffic suddenly stopped. There was no movement for such a long time that people started to get curious, ...

… in my living room at least I consolidated my credit card debt a couple of months ago, and as part of the ritual, cut them up. This is what the result looks like, though I couldn’t find all of them, these cards accounted for a large portion of the debt I was going to ...
