My site has been offline for the past 12 hours or so as there were some major issues caused by a few ‘site optimization’ plug ins that dug a little too deep into the code of the site, thus bringing the site down to its knees. As such, a lot of the wallpapers that I have recently uploaded to the site were blown away as I had to roll back the site to its state several days ago. I will re-upload them to the site but it will take a few days…so please bear with me as I try to recover things.

If you are a little befuddled about what caused this economic mess we are currently in and will continue to be in for at least the next 18-24 months, take a few hours and listen to This American Life’s Giant Pool of Money and Another Frightening Show About the Economy. They are two amazingly clear and informative podcasts about what caused this mess and how the “geniuses” on Wall Street brought the modern economic system to its knees.
