Big Ideas That Changed The World - Consumerism (3/4)
I have tried twice to add the second one in this series. Sometimes things show up in draft later. If it does I guess it will just be out of sequence. Otherwise go to this link to find it on YouTube:

Gnomeo & Juliet Movie Trailer Official (HD)
Book For The Week - 2/13/2011

From the author's website:
"When Laurence Fife was murdered, few mourned his passing. A prominent divorce attorney with a reputation for single-minded ruthlessness on behalf of his clients, Fife was also rumored to be a dedicated philanderer. Plenty of people in the picturesque Southern California town of Santa Teresa had a reason to want him dead. Including, thought the cops, his young and beautiful wife, Nikki. With motive, access, and opportunity, Nikki was their number one suspect. The jury thought so too.
Eight years later and out on parole, Nikki Fife hires Kinsey Millhone to find out who really killed her late husband.
A trail that is eight years cold. A trail that reaches out to enfold a bitter, wealthy, and foul-mouthed old woman and a young boy, born deaf, whose memory cannot be trusted. A trail that leads to a lawyer defensively loyal to a dead partner -- and disarmingly attractive to Millhone; to an ex-wife, brave, lucid, lovely -- and still angry over Fife's betrayal of her; to a not-so-young secretary with too high a salary for too few skills -- and too many debts left owing: The trail twists to include every turn until it finally twists back on itself with a killer cunning enough to get away with murder."
(I finished this book this pm during my drive home from visiting my ex-step-grandchildren. I have listened to others in this series and Audible.com was having a sale on the first episodes of various series this month so I purchased the first of the Alphabet Series by Sue Grafton. While they will never be classics these little mysteries are good escapes. As always click on the title and the author's name to follow the links to learn more.)

Capitalism 3.0
I want to watch this later and want to be able to find it easily so am posting it here. I was going to put it on my IPod but found it would cost five bucks. Being the cheap person that I am, I will watch it in segments as I have time here rather than listen to it during my commute on my IPod.
