On a lighter note.....

I was just looking through the loans that are up on Kiva (only 5 at the moment) and the featured lender was a person who listed his occupation as "Fry cook at McDonald's"....cute, he typed in as part of his profile that his boss told him he was in "production".  Then I saw another profile (most are all newbies joining after 09/05/07) and came across a lawyer from CA who had 154 loans.  I just thought it was amazing that these two people who would probably never know one another in real life because of their vast economic differences can come together on Kiva...as equals...and help to make this a better world.

It's good to see lenders from Japan, Brazil and one from the Russian Federation. 

I do wish that lenders would add their country with their name and place rather than just a city or abbreviations for a place.  It would make the lender page that much more interesting and considerably less frustrating trying to figure out where the heck............Huh? Thinking Thinking
