Alright, I can understand having a toll on a newly built road. However, what I can’t stand are these busy roads that charge over a dollar a trip and have been around for a hundred years. There could be some upkeep I’m sure, but charging someone three bucks to go voer the bridge is pushing it. Some people that is half an hour’s salary. That could be three cheeseburgers at Wendy’s for God’s sake! ANyway I had to go over one of those tolls today, and it got me to thinking about what a brain dead job it is to work there. It would be good for me, and they probably make over 10 bucks an hour.

I can remember walking into the doctor’s office and seeing thousands of file folders behind the desk. When they would pull mine out it was an inch thick! However, thanks to NextGen information systems doctors are able to store all of their records electronically, eliminating the need for all of that paper. When physicians decide to go to electronic record keeping, they turn to the leading EMR software consultant, VirMedice. VirMedice will do everything it takes to help physicians convert all their old physical files into a much more convenient electronic package. Everyone in the medical field is glad the days of file folders are long gone, now medical histories are available at the click of a mouse thanks to the new wave of information technology!

I can’t really defend much about the Devil Rays, but the one thing I can is the place they play: Tropicana Field. You see, people are always criticizing it for being an indoor stadium. Get a hint, we live in Florida. It rains daily, and theres a reason Dolphin Stadium sucks even more for baseball, it’s hot, muggy, and designed for football. It’s even named after the football team! You know who has priority. Tropicana is always 72 degrees and there’s never a rainout. I love it. It’s so much better than this:

I believe that loans can be both a blessing and a hindrance, depending on the nature of the lender and borrower. If a responsible borrower takes an amount of money he feels comfortable with repaying, there should never be a problem. Consumers should get into the habit of checking out the details of personal loans before they take one out. Interest rates and other factors can make a big difference. Lenders should be a little more wary, too. Sometimes they give big loans to people who don’t have the means to pay them back, causing loss for both parties. I took out a loan in order to go back to college, something I would have never been able to do out of pocket. Just do your homework before you get personal or secured loans and you should be fine.

That civic center used to be the place to go whenever a concert came to town. It’s really weird how all these big name bands would come here and now that it’s five times bigger, they don’t even bother. I remember seeing Foreigner and Loverboy in 83 at the civic center. There was this girl passed out in front of me covered in vomit, so you know it was a good time. Here’s the song they were playing when I saw the chick.
