Amusing and Informative, Your Lil' Sister Loves to Get the 'Scoop' on the Mainstream Media and To Present a Variety of Obscure, Under-Reported and Decidedly-More Newsworthy Items From Around The Globe; You'll Also Be Privy To Pieces of My Own Personal Paranormal Phenomena; and Frequently Hear of Things Your Parents, Clergy, Society and Uncle Sam didn't bother to tell you.

The Way This Grrrl Sees It!
It's only been a mere 3 years since they received a $45 Billion taxpayer paid bail-out after contributing to our nation's massive economic disaster... and "too-big-to-fail" (still) Citigroup's earnings are up 74%, to 3.4 Billion. This was their seventh straight quarter of growth. (Er, "yippee"?)
And, this past Saturday, about 20 or so Occupy Wall Street protestors were summarily arrested at Citibank in Times Square... including some Citibank customers who had come in to close their Citi accounts.
Hurray for them! (... for closing their accounts, not for the 'getting arrested' part)
(Sh*tty) Citi actually locked the doors w/protestors still inside.
Citigroup: You CitiSuck!
