*********************
"For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." So wrote Paul the Apostle, in his First Epistle to Timothy. And I think it's fair to say, that's his opinion and he has every right to it. Bill Cassel takes the other side of this lively point-counterpoint in today's heartwarming segment: Everybody Loves Money.

note: For the bandwidth challenged, we're also offering this piece in three bite-sized (1.5 mb) morsels: Part A, Part 2, and Part the Third. Watch the skies, -CV.

"It's all about the Benjamins." I think I'll be saying that to my friends' wary glances for the next couple of weeks. Very funny!

Hat's off to the homeless lady. She gets my vote for Best Supporting Monkey in an Engaging Theatrical or Skit.

Stan s-s-s-scared me. Homeless Lady blued and yet impressed me. Drug Dealer made me laugh out loud. A roller coaster ride! Thanks, Bill Cassel. Thanks, Monkey Vortex.

would have liked the homeless woman to be more honest and powerful. too sad and shallow. liked the 'shoot you in the neck' line. more honest.

"Get money; still get money, boy,
No matter by what means."
---Ben Jonson (1572–1637), Every Man in his Humour. Act ii. Sc. 3.

"Touchstone. Hast any philosophy in thee, shepherd?
Corin. No more but that I know the more one sickens the worse at ease he is; and that he that wants money, means, and content, is without three good friends"
---William Shakespeare (1564–1616), As You Like It. Act iii. Sc. 2.
