Christmas Dinner On Wall Street

Per the last post, we’re experimenting here and are looking forward to bringing you some exciting changes here. However, as we go along, some things we took for granted before, we have to discover how to do all over again. Such as post pictures. Sorry this isn’t embedded into the post, but worth an extra click anyway. It’s the heartwarming tale of how a bunch of down and out Wall Street executives, after their companies’ collapse, revived their spirits to enjoy the real meaning of Christmas, in the classic tale:

Upgrade!

Are y’all as annoyed with a certain satellite television company’s commercial with Beyonce singing “Upgrade” a million times over? Oh, you don’t watch Fox Soccer Channel and Discovery? Sorry. Trust me, it’s annoying. But, for us, appropriate, after all. Without getting into all the techno-specifics, we’ve had some limitations on adding to this blog’s capabilities. However, we got around them and have updated to the latest WordPress version and soon hope to bring you all sorts of new features, including a new look. Not promising when, but hopefully sooner rather than later. Stay tuned.
