Your First Album Cover
Follow the instructions here to create your very first album cover.
For your convenience, here are his instructions, followed by my first album cover...
1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random” or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 - Go to "Random quotations" or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album. (make sure you hit the new random quotations button at the bottom)
3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days” or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together ( http://www.picnik.com/ works well, online ).
He's right, picnik does work well, or at least, it's easy...

The S.S. Foreclosure
If you are interested in what's happening in "The Foreclosure Capital of America" (Lee County, FL), this video is worth watching. It's even worth waiting for the 30-second commercial to end (if one appears).
It all rings true... especially today, two days after the Fed printed $1,000,000,000,000.00... real estate suddenly looks like a, well, real investment.
No, wait, they didn't actually print money, they loaned it to themselves. No, wait, they effectively dropped the interest rate by 1 full percentage point.
No... it's called a "balance sheet expansion", now I feel better.
Seriously, this video rings true because I have studied the Cape Coral real estate market for the past four years, up through the bubble and down through the bursting... and it doesn't contradict anything I have learned.
Except for the part about the current buyers being speculators just like before... bubble speculators didn't have cash, they didn't put ANY money down, today cash is king.
And yes, the guy running the boat tours is a clown, a hustler, that's not the point.
