Its a really fun game, especially when you are playing with about 4-5 people. Its very important to know how to bluff.. and sometimes to "pretend" that you are bluffing hah.... just by your facial expression etc. I typically do that, just to make the others pick up. Its interesting how you applied the game of bullsh*t to real life. -Randy I love bullsh*t! Its a really fun game, especially when you are playing with about 4-5 people.

This is SO true online! I have recently started enjoying a blog called Bad Money Advice. It is written by a guy with a lot of experience and wisdom in business and finance. He makes his blog simply about pointing out illogical and non factual things in personal finance blogs. I read a lot of personal finance blogs so I love picking up on things he writes. He often gives a very important counter perspective. Here is his link... http://badmoneyadvice.com/ Again, thanks for visiting Barbara. Im just starting to get back into blogging so you can plan on seeing me around your blog again here soon. AND, I still do want to be a teacher for a day. ;-) Cheers, Jeremy Hi Barbara,
