American greed and how it hurts the 99%
I’m not an economist, and this is just my opinion on the state of the US and my thoughts on how to fix it. In Part 2 of this series, I gave some ideas on how we can fix our economy. In this part I’ll go to an extreme and ask the question “can we get rid of money all together?” and I say yes. Maybe not any time soon but I think in time we can go moneyless.

A Heartfelt Letter To My Mother
Hey Mom! I thought I’d write you this letter telling you how much I miss you. It’s been 11 years since you passed away and I think about you a lot. I miss the trips we took to visit our family in New Jersey, I miss your cooking, the whole house filled with the smell of whatever you were making that night. I miss our trips to Vegas, I was to young to gamble but because you and Dad knew people, I always got free games at Circus Circus, I miss decorating the Christmas tree with you and then we’d sit by the fire with marshmallows and roast them.

American Greed and how it hurts the 99%
I’m not an economist, and this is just my opinion on the state of the US and my thoughts on how to fix it. If you haven’t read part 1 of this series (insert link here) I gave some ideas on how I think the healthcare and college systems could be fixed. In this part I’ll go more in-depth on how I think the economy can be fixed. These ideas are just that, I hope either someone can fill in the holes or maybe come up with an out of the box idea as well. We need open thoughts to fix the system.

Rum Balls
Rum balls, they are delicious and potent. They’re a great party snack because you can get drunk while eating them. I got this recipe from a sad occasion, a friends father’s funeral. I know a strange place to get such a fun recipe but the person who gave me the recipe brought some (apparently, they were one of my father’s friends favorite treats). They were so tasty I asked for the recipe and I’ve made them once a year (or more) ever since. They’re sticky, tasty and fun to eat, but remember, don’t eat to many because you will get hammered.

American Greed and how it hurts the 99%
I’m not an economist, and this is just my opinion on the state of the US and my thoughts on how to fix it. I thought about this for a long time, and I wrote a big post about it, but then I decided for simplicity I’d write separate articles.

Songs of Teen Angst
I’m older then probably most people who write for Vocal (I could be wrong), I was a teen in the 80’s. I’ve always liked rock music, but it got harder as I got older. In junior high I was into bands like Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, and Twisted Sister, but when I got into high school I got into harder bands Metallica, Megadeth, Testament. Now I still like all those bands, but I’ve gotten into others like Jinjer and Nightwish.

Sweet Nostalgia
I don’t really get nostalgic in the way most people do. I don’t go pining for what were better days, I don’t see something or hear a song and sigh, but I do miss certain trends. I’m going to pick a trend I miss for myself and one that I miss for women (I hope this doesn’t sound sexist).

Why I think BDSM relationships are better than vanilla ones
I’ve been in both BDSM and vanilla relationships and BDSM relationships have always felt more fulfilling and more honest. This is because in BDSM you have to have full trust that the person you're with won’t hurt you because some of the stuff you do can be physically and mentally damaging. When you’re tying someone up, or flogging them, giving them orders, choking them or manhandling them you have to have a certain amount of trust that you may not have in a regular relationship.
