We had a guy that used to come in to Dave and Buster's we nicknamed Skeeball Dan. That dude would run the gambit with us and throw off our cost of sales so bad we'd have to explain to our regional managers and corporate that our skeeball machines weren't broken, but they had a hard time believing one guy could mess up our numbers that bad. It wasn't until he was at the store next to headquarters that they started believing us.

What machine?

On this point, do you think there a correlation between the expansion of the Federally Backed Student Loan system combined with the decrease in direct government funding to colleges/universities and the massive increase in the cost of higher education? In other words, colleges and universities now know they can get more money in this system because the Fed will back student loans so they artificially inflate tuition costs in order to rake in money.

My coworker thinks there's another housing bubble about to burst and insists that waiting to buy a house is the way to go. I told him that the Fed will likely raise the interest rates soon and that he should look in to buying now. Which of us is correct?

How is Sweden? I always imagine it like some sort of mountainous winter wonderland.
