London calling



I opened a savings account with ING when I was out in LA. I started with $50, and since I did it at their trendy cafe in West LA, they threw in an extra $25. So after not touching the account for two years it has grown to a whopping $79.35.

So what to do with this surplus? It is now officially my London fund. At the end of every post I put on here, I will list what's in my savings account. If it doesn't look like it's growing, pester me. If it ever goes down, well, that's when I'll need a kick in the butt unless I have a very good reason. The key is accountability.

And of course, donations to the London fund will be gladly accepted.

What is that in pounds sterling?

George, that's awesome. When I was teaching, I forgot that the credit union was taking $15 a month out for me. I was in some bind or another and suddenly realized, "Shit! I have more than $400 in the bank!"

I need to do that again ... the $15/month plan.

Also, I have a winning lottery ticket for $2. I'll give it to you.

Woohoo! Over $80!

Ben, Pounds Sterling is a great porn name. He may become a character in someone's romance novel some day.

And Sterling Pounds is a great name for a porn company.

I never knew romance novels and porn had so much in common.
