In a letter sent to vendors with invoices outstanding, rumor
has it that Addashop.com stated that "After careful
independent review, we realize that our financial position
may seriously impede our ability to be a growing concern"
(am I crazy or does this make no sense?). Based on this
review, Addashop claimed it had to take "drastic measures"
and pay only 10% of all outstanding balances. Thanks for all
your hard work.

Wife beater dot-com
MyWeddingPlans.com is a site that you are supposed to rely
on to help plan your wedding. The site has been down for
quite a while and the telephone is disconnected, leaving
many brides with valuable information lost and many
weddings disorganized. This should serve as a warning not
to rely too much on a ($#*@(#ed company. Tough love.
