Homeowner Forecloses on B of A!!
Sweet justice! As the homeowners foreclosure defense lawyer says in the video: The bank manager was visibly shaken at attempts by law enforcement to repossess the bank. Now he at least understands (perhaps a tiny bit) the pain being felt again and again and again by struggling homeowners throughout America. See video and images above.

Everyone Is Angry but Nobody is Contrite
WASHINGTON — Summoned to Capitol Hill to explain their companies’ roles in the worst economic downturn since the Depression, leaders of four big Wall Street banks offered a largely clinical take on the financial crisis on Wednesday, pointing to lapses in risk management and government regulation but offering little sense of the turmoil’s human toll.

The Remorseful Banker
Has the time of the Remorseful Banker come? No. Quite simply: No. It'll never happen. Be nice though.

Letter to the Bank #4

Dear Bank,
Please don’t tell me you have gone and discarded the drawing I recently sent you? That would seem very clumsy and inefficient especially on the part of a bank that handles so much money the world over. How can I trust you to look after my money if you cannot even respond civilly to a perfectly nice letter and/or take care of its contents? Consider this a slap on the hand but do not worry. I am not going to sue you. I don’t really like that sort of thing. Seems to me that as a culture we are all too quick to jump on peoples' backs as soon as they make the slightest mistake and I am the first to admit that I make mistakes. Still I do think you could’ve been a little more careful and I am sure you can understand that this somewhat diminishes the trust I have in your institution. That said I understand that the artwork came to you unsolicited in the first place! As far as you are concerned it is probably just junk mail! I kind of feel the same about your credit card offers these days. True I have taken advantage of them but now it seems they are taking advantage of me! Note: I didn’t say YOU were taking advantage of me because I still hold out the hope that you, as an upstanding institution would not be so course as to do such a thing.
I am going to let you off the hook! You lost my artwork and that is that but you can be sure I will not be offering you any more of the same. I shall try other banks instead. Perhaps they might be a little more careful. In the back of my mind though, I have to admit I sometimes wonder if you are not actually all the same bank! I know it sounds ridiculous but it isn’t. It is a bit like rolling all those nice brightly colored cylinders of Playdough together until all you are left with is one big dirty color, a color you simply wouldn’t want to work with.
Yours sincerely (if a little disappointed),
K
PS If you are so inclined you might send me the address of your corporate art collection. Perhaps they will be a little more appreciative.
Letter to the Bank #3

Dear Bank,
I am beginning to think I am not dealing with a human being at all! Is this possible? It has been three months and so far no reply! What is the point of sending money to a machine, I have to ask myself. So I am not going to send anymore! There! That was simple! Oh if only all communications could be so concluded! Of course a hand written note asking me to please keep paying down my credit cards would be hard to resist and I would be compelled, as an honorable being, to honor your request. Please consider doing likewise in regards to my previous missives.
Yours sincerely,
K
