SWIMMING IN THE SHARK TANK

If you are sick of all the drama-ridden night time soaps on TV these days, ABC's got a fresh new show called The Shark Tank that will intrigue the brain and ripple up the otherwise repeating tides of your night time entertainment.

In the boardroom there are 5 sharks, in other words unbelievably successful business men and women with a lot of cash. Each week, a few contestants or entrepreneurs will present their business ideas to these sharks, hoping to spark up their interest enough to make an investment in their new business. In the end, the desirable situation is that the contestant gets the money their business needs, the shark or sharks owns a percentage of the profit - all is negotiable, of course!

So far there has been a number of really bad ideas, namely the man who wants to sell 3 socks instead of a pair. What the hell was he thinking? But then there are good ones too, like the women who created and patented a protective coat for baby cribs - genius!

I learn something new from each show, which is so refreshing from all the drama on TV lately. To read more about The Shark Tank, go here:
