Unlike most other times, this time was quite literal. I lost power at about 2 AM on Sunday morning, and did not get it back until Friday at 10:20PM. Contrary to what some people asked, I did just fine with not [...]]]> http://www.ctoutandabout.com/2011/living/opinions/after-the-storm-a-few-thoughts-for-cl-p-ui-and-a-town-or-two/feed/ 0 http://www.ctoutandabout.com/2011/living/opinions/how-to-get-rich-quick-maybe/ http://www.ctoutandabout.com/2011/living/opinions/how-to-get-rich-quick-maybe/#comments Mon, 04 Jul 2011 15:13:13 +0000 Edwin Bartlett http://www.ctoutandabout.com/?p=8042 Last month my Best friend Julie told us her story about her experience with “Gifting Tables” in her story “Just Desserts“‘ This very thinly disguised pyramid scheme preys upon women by dangling a 40K payout.
