Snark: to annoy or irritate

"Snark" has been in English language dictionaries since at least 1906, and Lewis Carroll used the word to describe a mythological animal in his poem, The Hunting of the Snark (1874). Most recently, the word has come to characterize snappish, sarcastic, or mean-spirited comments or actions directed at those who annoy or irritate us.

At first, this blog was just going be a place to gripe, but because it's more satisfying to take action than it is to merely complain, now most of the posts/reposts suggest ways to get involved in solving problems.

Move Your Money


A message from MoveOn.org:
From betting against the very investments they were selling to wrongfully foreclosing on a record number of Americans, Wall Street and the big banks have been making it clear that their only allegiance is to their own pockets. This graphic shows just one of the horror stories that are taking place every day in America, and this Saturday, November 5th is the day to Make Wall Street Pay. People are moving their money to locally owned banks and credit unions in a massive sweep! Will you share this graphic to spread the message? 

This Saturday, November 5th, is the day to Make Wall Street Pay. Share this image with everyone you know—if enough folks move their money, Wall Street could learn a lesson they won't soon forget. We can do this—together. 

Thanks for all you do.
