Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Drama queen who goes on record to say it feels like she was raped…careless bank…bad move made right when “fat cat predatory lending” is the most popular catch-slogan in our nation’s capitol.
I don’t wanna be that guy. Whoever is responsible for this screw-up.
Five months after repo men broke into her Hampton Township home and took her pet macaw, Angela Iannelli told Team 4 that it still feels like she “was raped.”
“I cannot walk into my house by myself. I tried it one time by myself, but the whole time, I was jumping like somebody was behind me and just started shaking.”
In a lawsuit filed this week, Iannelli claims that her mortgage company mistakenly targeted her house for foreclosure, and she said she came home one day to find that she had been locked out and someone had gone inside, cut the utilities, poured antifreeze into the drains and taken her bird.
“If you or I did to Bank of America what Bank of America did to my client, we would be in prison for 10 years,” said Iannelli’s lawyer, Michael Rosenzweig, partner at Edgar Snyder & Associates.
Team 4 reported that, in a lawsuit filed Monday, the homeowner says she was up to date on her mortgage payments — and out of the blue, Bank of America sent a contractor to invade her home in October and then padlock it.
For 20 years, Iannelli has maintained a residence on Fountainwood Drive. She says she never had a problem with her mortgage — always making the payments to Bank of America on time.
Iannelli told Team 4 investigator Jim Parsons that she got no notice from anyone at Bank of America that anything was wrong. The first time she realized something was amiss was that October day when she arrived home, took out her key, went to put it in the lock and realized that the locks had been changed.
And they took her bird too.
When the lawyer is salivating, it’s a bad sign.

Bank of America is one of those companies that you never, ever hear anything good about. I wonder why?
- chunt31854 | 03/11/2010 @ 12:22I don’t understand what pouring antifreeze in the drain and taking a pet bird have to do with foreclosure…and furthermore, isn’t eviction actually handled by the sheriff’s dept, not “repo men?”
Something doesn’t add up here. In any case I hope she takes that bank to the cleaners.

cylarz,
“Five months after repo men broke into her Hampton Township home and took her pet macaw, Angela Iannelli told Team 4”
Team 4, which I’m sure is the local news organization, it seems is the one who wrote this, so…
“I don’t understand what pouring antifreeze in the drain and taking a pet bird have to do with foreclosure”
You pour antifreeze in the drains to prevent them from freezing, (the heat is shut off also) and flooding the house. Taking the bird is probably mandatory since it’s a live creature and the house would be inaccessible after they lock up the house.
