Sure, I’m name-checking the song by James Brown, but it just seemed too perfect to pass up.

Just like this bag I’m holding up in the photo to the left.

The bag was something I scored at Crazy Daze, courtesy of the First National Bank. You can imagine how enthusiastic I am about the message on it.

Not only can I share my philosophy about investing in our community when I take out this bag, I can save a few trees by taking advantage of its reuseability. It worked fine for the two books I picked up at Monkey Read, with more than enough room left for my camera, the Wall Street Journal, and a bag of coffee.

Thanks to the folks at First National and, please, Shop Locally.
