Just a reminder: Kiva

Just a reminder for those of you who are interested in helping out entrepreneurs around the world with micro-loans, Pleonast has a Kiva group. I'm not positive, but Kennon may still be matching the loans of first time lenders. Worth checking!

If you're not familiar with Kiva, I'd highly recommend checking it out. Brilliant idea. In fact, the Vanderbilt alum who thought up the idea of microcredit, Muhammad Yunus, was honored with the Nobel Peace Prize several years ago.

Speaking of animals:

"And the lambs. All young animals are appealing but the lamb has been given an unfair share of charm." (James Herriot)

Too true, too true!

    We have something almost exactly like that around the corner from my house. It's called the Money Store.
