My Choice for President and PrimeTime QuickHits

My Choice

I try not to be too political with my posts here at Prime Time Money.  However, I feel the time has come for me to finally express my opinion.  I can no longer stand by silently while millions get ready to cast their vote for one of the most important elections in a very long time.  Here’s my choice for President of the United States of America.

Carnivals

Speaking of carnivals, the State Fair is in town here in Texas.  Apparently, due the economy, attendance is down drastically.  I never understood wasting a bunch of money at the fair anyway.  Call me a downer, but Texas heat, bad food, and death traps for rides don’t sound sound like fun.
