That’s Not Weird, Right?
Jun 04, 2010 Modest Mouse
File this one under…well…huh? In a move that would make the gang at Parks and Recreation proud (Oh come on, you know Leslie Knope is a secret indie rocker), Portland, Oregon mayor Sam Adams has hung a portrait of Modest Mouse leadman Isaac Brock in his office. An oil portrait. Life-sized. Of Brock in lederhosen. With a boar. Say it with me…what?!
Check out the video of artist Alexander Rokoff, Brock, and Adams at the unveiling.

I had a desire to make my business, but I didn’t have enough of money to do this. Thank goodness my dude suggested to take the loan. Thence I used the commercial loan and realized my dream.

The personal loans suppose to be useful for people, which would like to start their company. By the way, that is not really hard to get a sba loan.

The loans suppose to be very useful for people, which want to ground their own business. By the way, it’s not very hard to receive a bank loan.
