Have you noticed that children seem happier lately?
Maybe it's just me but it seems that everywhere I go lately, the kids just seem happier. I just thought I would ask because it struck me as pleasantly odd.
In times of a changing president and economic challenges, it's nice to feel the positive energy coming from the ground up. And by ground, I mean the 2 foot tall bundles of joy that hobble around and smile at us 5 feet plus giants who often forget the simple joys of life as we try to make a living and create wealth while still maintaining harmony in our bodies, bank accounts and souls.
Now, I am not normally one to praise kids like this. I run past the Baby's R Us stores like it's emitting the plague. But lately, it just feels like the air is a little lighter. I hope you feel it too.
So here I am, back to work on a football Sunday and just thought I would share my happy thought.
Best wishes to you and yours this holiday season,
Angela
p.s. I came across this cute picture on a website and thought it was cute. I don't know the kids or photographer since I lost the link ages ago. Woops.

Reverse 911 for Cell Phones - San Diego
If you live in San Diego, you need to register your Cell Phone for Emergency situations. Let's put the Homeland Security Office to good use. We are paying for them to be there.
San Diego Reverse 911 http://www.sandiego.gov/ohs/reverse911/index.shtml
ICE your cell phone
On your Cell Phone, you should have your top emergency contact(s) listed in your Contacts under ICE, which stands for In Case of Emergency. I have mine listed as ICE Mom and ICE Daniel. I know if one person is not available, the other is. If you are unconscious, wasted or otherwise impaired and smart enough to have your cell phone on you, the EMTs and doctors can more easily contact people who know you if you have an ICE number listed. You can also put it on the outside of your phone, but that's totally up to you. You can get a cool ICE sticker for two bucks at Ice Sticker.com. Just make sure you put your ICE in your Contacts.
Peace and love,
Angela

Musician Resources
I have learned that many creative and business people are musicians or know musicians. Here are some resources to share with your musical friends:
Playlist.com: A great site for getting other people to post your songs on their MySpace pages. Exposure is key.
MySpace.com: Every musician should have a MySpace page to connect with their fans, post new songs, get feedback and give tour dates.
Pandora.com: This virtual radio station creates playlists of similar styles of artists. You can get heard by people who would otherwise never find you.
YouTube.com: Makes it easy to post videos online and send them out to fans. MySpace also has a video tool. Either way. Show your fans who you are.

Financial Bailout Alternative: Payoff Consumer Credit Card Debt
What are your thoughts on having the Financial Bailout plan be used to pay off consumer credit card debt instead of rescuing the big financial institutions who got America into debt in the first place?
A NEW OPTION: HELP OUT OUR FELLOW CITIZEN
I may be naive but the $700 billion bailout seems to just get us into more debt, not out of it. If we used that same money and wiped out America's credit card debt that would be a true Freedom Act.
I understand that as a citizen that with this new option, I would be paying off someone else's mistake, but at least it's my neighbor, my brother and my friends that I know and live next to and see struggling on a paycheck to paycheck lifestyle as the interest rates on their credits rise to staggering levels of 33.99% and struggle to fill their cars with gas.
THE OLD OPTION: WHY HELP A FACELESS BOTTOM LINE?
This is instead of bailing out some multi-billion dollar company that has no real face and just focuses on squeezing more money out of us to boost their bottom line.
THE REAL BENEFITS: INCREASE CONSUMER FINANCIAL EDUCATION & RE-EDUCATE OUR CONSUMERIST SOCIETY
As part of the Consumer Credit Card Bailout Plan, I would add an education program that every American who gets bailed out would be required to attend within a certain time period of their debt relief (i.e. one year online education). This would encourage Americans to understand how their spending habits should be to sustain a lifelong debt free lifestyle. I work with some great people who are developing a program that would satisfy this portion of the crisis relief and would be happy to provide you their information.
THE REAL BOTTOM LINE:
By freeing up ourselves and our neighbors from credit card debt, we would be giving everyone in our country a "new lease on life" and a "fresh start," two ideas that Americans preach every day.
We want to succeed. Case in point: Did you know that one of the most stolen items at drug stores is disposable razors? Razors to shave men's face. You see America wants to look good and succeed. It's just the way we have been encouraged to live to spend money with advertising, impulse buying and availability of credit has so jaded America that WE, the citizens of America, need a bailout plan that gets us out of debt and puts us on the right path. Hence the credit card bailout plan with financial education.
Let me know your thoughts.
Carpe diem,
Angela
