Ribzy's Internet Posts and Findings

RIP Society of the Day: An ad firm is stepping in to help struggling homeowners meet their monthly mortgage payments by offering to pony up cash in exchange for ad space on the side of their house. “I knew the economy was tough,” Adzookie CEO Romeo Mendoza told CNN, “but it’s sad to see how many homeowners are really struggling.”
The company explains the terms of the deal on their site:

Here are a few things we’re looking for. You must own your home. It  cannot be rented or leased. We’ll paint the entire outside of the house,  minus the roof, the windows and any awnings. Painting will take  approximately 3 - 5 days. Your house must remain painted for at least  three months and may be extended up to a year. If, for any reason, you  decide to cancel after three months or if we cancel the agreement with  you, we’ll repaint your house back to the original colors.

Mendoza expects to paint his first house in the next few weeks.
