I purposely went out today to look for some beauty. Pain and suffering are such attention whores. I'm trying to ignore them. Nature seems to like to use some specific colors to attract your attention.

It's been quite a while since I've even logged on, I have to admit it took several tries, even cutting & pasting my login & posting password. I'm posting this mostly to get it out of my head. I

If you're like me, (i.e. not too technically savvy) you're investing in cryptos with little downside risk. In layman's terms it means I'm putting small amounts of fiat into coins that sell for not a lot.

Check out my shit. That's right, 11,000 Dogecoin bitches! I'm gonna be F'ing rich. Like I always say, "Go Big or go home."

So a new law went into effect on January 1, 2018 which ALLOWS people in Oregon to pump their own gas. It doesn't require them to pump their own gas, it just allows the people who run gas stations in Oregon

I already have an account on Gemini to exchange fiat to Bitcoin or Ethereum and am ready to start diversifying my crypto holdings. I've created an account on Kraken but am sitting here waiting for them

I don't remember how I stumbled across this but it's unbelievably honest. I haven't seen any more of this show other than a few other snippets that followed right after this video on YouTube. I'll probably
