Michelle and I are at LAX airport, waiting for our flight back home to Missourah. I am SOoooo fired up. (Had to use several OOoohs!) We just attended Alexandria Brown's workshop on online marketing.

Bailout or Blowout? Your BEST solution…

Greetings! Wow...is the economy as bad as we are being led to believe? Will the markets grind to a halt should a deal NOT be struck by Monday?
