Why I Don't Like Banks
When I was a small child my mother took me to the bank. She thought it would be smart if I deposited all the money I had gotten for birthdays and such. It was a good time becouse at this particular bank youngsters who opened an account were allowed to join the Tycoon Club. Basically this was just like a normal account except you got prizes depending on how much was deposited in the bank. The prizes were very nice to. Not cheap McDonolds happy meal prizes. Tycoon club gave out sweet stuff like mugs, and frisbees. Well all was good for a while. Then the bank dicontinued the Tycoon club. This ment no more mugs. Without the mug incentive I stopped putting money in the bank. Years later I get a letter in the mail telling me I have to take all of my money out of the bank becouse my account has been inactive for to long. So I'm all like fine you stupid bank I'll just keep my money in my room. See how you like that. Well this was fine untill I got a check from my grandmother. Turns out if I don't have an acount the bank won't cash the check. So this is the last straw. I go to the other bank and say hey buddy get me an account. You see I went to the other bank becouse even though I was giveing in and was going to keep money in a bank, I was'nt going totaly sell out and put in the evil Tycoon Club closeing bank. So I'm at this new bank and few months later I have a couple of checks to cash. I go to the bank and their closed. Whats up with this I say its only four o'clock. Turns out the bank closes at four. Thats insane. If any other buiseness closed that early they'd be out of buiseness. Not the bank however. They think thier all better then a shoe store or fish cannery, just becouse everybody has thier life saveings kept there. Banks should follow the same rules as legitement businesses. Not closeing at all hours of the afternoon and leaveing the populous pennyless and desperet. No I shall open my own bank, a superior bank, a magnificent bank made out of gold that will stand upon a hill, and will be open all night. And when kids come they will get free lollipopsregardless of their financial situation concerning the bank. Yes my friends this wil be a bank for the peaple, not those Washington fatcats.

Dissecting the Picture of the Man by the Jeep

When I selected the template for my webesite it had all kinds of text telling me how to do things. It also came with two pictures, beneath these pictures it said " Add captions to make your picture more exciteing." Since I don't have any cool pictures on my computer I'm leaveing these ones up. I don't see any reason not to. They are lovely examples of photography. The picture of the man by the jeep is pure art. Who is this mystery man, and why douse he stand by the jeep. Humankind may never know the truth. Maybe he's a rebellious teenager ready to hit the town for a drunken night of partying. Or maybe he's down on his luck drifter whose been wondering the United States for years. Never able to get a break, alwas being persicuted for his love of sandles. Us, the viewer of this piece will never know what was realy going through the photographers when this portrait was taken, but what a tale it tells
