Lot18 Blog: Cocktails, Sausages and Zombies
Chris Hallowell, Features Editor, Lot18
Today at the Lot18 office, everyone is talking about the Oscars. Frankly, I’m disappointed in my co-workers. Let’s get our priorities straight people; there was a new episode of The Walking Dead last night. Movie awards are fine and all, but shows…

Strong Opinions @marksbirch: Writing Often Vs Writing Well
I was recently turned on to a website called 750 Words. The idea is that by simply putting the proverbial pen to paper every day, you can get into a habit of writing as a way of clearing the mind through a brain dump. Through regular practice, one also presumes that the writing itself would…

Mitt Romney claimed this morning that he created “more jobs in Massachusetts than this president’s created in the entire country.” We’ll just leave this reality-depicting chart here and let you draw your own conclusions.

CrowdRise Accountants in Steel Cage Match for New Years’
This is a very interesting site (http://www.crowdrise.com/), taking charitable giving and making it fun. Actually, not fun, but funny. Right now, my initial reaction is a mere raised eyebrow. But I can understand who they’re targeting, and who knows, it might work. Charity doesn’t have to just be noble - it can be fun and just make you feel good.
This was the email I received letting me know that I should donate before the year’s end to get a deduction.

There Are 4 More Days to Donate in 2011 to Get Some Sort of Deduction
For the next four days you should drop everything to focus on some last minute giving. Here’s why…
- Everyone will like you better
- It’s probably good for tax reasons
GO HERE TO DONATE TO SOME AMAZING CHARITIES
Here are some more really great options…
- Give to any of the charities or mess of celebrities in the Mozilla Firefox Challenge. The fundraiser that raises the most through January 11th wins $25,000 for their charity from Mozilla. For real.
- Give to a random awesome fundraiser who is raising money for their favorite cause. How cool will it be when someone sees that a random human (you) supported them.
- Donate $29 to any charity and you’ll be signed up win an iPad2.
Most importantly, we have a staff of 147 accountants at CrowdRise. For New Years’, 131 of ‘em will be in Vegas for a full-on steel cage brawl against a group of 202 CPAs from Baby Knife, a company that specializes in sharp knives and tools for little kids. Tickets to the event have been sold out for several months but you’ll be able to watch the fight online at TheAccountantFights.gov. More info to come as soon as possible.
Oh, the part about the fight in Vegas is entirely made that up. One of our mean lawyers made us tell you that it’s fabricated. Sorry for having made you dumber for reading all about it.
I’ll stop typing now.
Thanks so much.
