Knoxville, Most affordable…
According to an article in The Knoxville Journal, July 20 - July 26, 2006, Section C, Page 1 that Knoxville is the most affordable city for college graduates.
Knoxville ranked #1, -8% Salary*, -21.5% cost of living* and 13.5% affordable index. “*” denoted compared to National Average. I find this hard to believe, but who knows. Now the metro area that came on the bottom of the list was no big surprise to me… Manhattan, NY

Where’s George & Where’s Willy
All of you know that I do the Where’s George, that is obvious from my post. Anywho! I would do that Where’s Willy, but I never get Canadian bills down in Tennessee. I know it would be fun and all to do. I do have an account with Where’s Willy, but I haven’t yet to enter a bill into it. I wished I could get one bill to enter it, just to see. Maybe I should go to my bank and buy some canadian one dollar bills or go to a bank that does, enter a few and try to spend them, but where to spend them in the states. Esp. this far from Canada? Also, if anyone knows where you can buy any Where’s Willy stampers, that would be great, just give me a comment to where you can buy one. I know where you can buy Where’s George ones, but I am not totally sure about Where’s Willy stampers. I am sure would love to know too. She got hooked into Where’s Willy, from watching my Where’s George post. She lives in Canada, btw, that is why she is doing Where’s Willy! Anyone have any ideas, input, etc. Feel free to share. This is open to everyone to comment, you don’t have to have an account either!
Whining does wonders! I want more hits and want them now! *fingers crossed* Wish me luck!

Hotel reservationist get commission!
Did you know that hotel reservationist get some commission. These are the ones at the toll-free numbers. Like (800) Days-Inn. They don’t get commission on the rates of the room, but get a commission on these certain transfers. Do you know how they transfer you to Alamo Car Rental or even Travelers Advantage? Well when I worked for one, you got 30¢ for one and 15¢ for the other place. You would get that if you were to transfer someone to one of those places and it depended on which one how much you got. But, of course I only worked there for 3 months in 1996.
