The suspense continues!</p>
<p>There has been lots of speculation on our facebook page and in the press about our ad and we can guarantee there are exciting things coming &#8211; watch this space!</p>

<p>After only just celebrating our first anniversary, we’re already jumping in and advertising with the big brands during one of the biggest TV events of the year. So we have a lot to be excited about.</p>

<p>kgb_ Special Agents are tireless and relentless in their search for the answers to America’s questions.  And what does America want to know, you ask?  Well, today’s buzz centers on what&#8217;s in and out for 2010:</p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s on the &#8220;in&#8221; list for 2010?</strong></p>
<h3>Know more:</h3>
<p>Here are some of the highlights of the Washington Post&#8217;s What&#8217;s In and Out for 2010:</p>
<h3>The Jonas Brothers are out and Justin Bieber is in</h3>
<p>Justin Bieber is the Canadian pop singer who began his career on YouTube.  His first album was released in November 2009.  Bieber is the only solo artist in Billboard history to have four singles from a debut album chart in the Top 40 of the Hot 100 before the album&#8217;s release.</p>
<p><strong>Justin Bieber &#8211; One Time</strong></p>

</strong></p>
<h3>Leggings are out and Pantslessness is in</h3>
<p>What is pantslessness?  Think Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) Beyonce video costumes.</p>

</strong></p>
<h3>Interval Training is out and Muscle Confusion is in</h3>
<p>The <a href="http://www.livestrong.com/article/14853-circuit-circus-the-muscle-confusion-workout/">muscle confusion</a> training principle centers on ensuring that there is a wide variety in the workout.  Muscles grow because sets, reps, exercises and rest periods change to maximize effectiveness.</p>
<h3>Fraud is out and Adultery is in</h3>
<p>It is estimated that roughly 30 to 60% of all married individuals (in the United States) will engage in infidelity at some point during their marriage.  The internet, e-mail, and chat rooms are making it easier for people to engage in infidelity.</p>
<h3>D-List is out and Defriend is in</h3>
<p>The <a href="http://www.oup.com/us/brochure/noad/">New Oxford American Dictionary</a> ignited a debate among Facebook users when it chose “unfriend” as the word of the year for 2009. The word, according to the dictionary, is a verb meaning “to remove someone as a ‘friend’ on a social networking site such as Facebook.” Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes and his friends use the term &#8220;defriend&#8221; instead.</p>
<h3>Small-Batch Bourbon is out and Sweet Tea Vodka is in</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.jeremiahweed.com/">Jeremiah Sweet Tea Vodka</a> is a flavored vodka the borders on a liquer due to its extreme sweetness.  It tastes like Southern sweet tea with the medium texture of vodka.</p>
<h3>The Summer Scarf is out and the Circle Scarf is in</h3>
<p>The unisex <a href="http://www.americanapparel.com/rsa0503.html">circle scarf</a> is a seamless tubular design that comes in a wide variety of fabrics and can be worn many ways.</p>
<h3>Rooftop Swimming Pools are out and <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/20/arts/design/20pool.html">Dumpster Swimming Pools</a> are in</h3>
<p>The “newish” garbage containers aka &#8220;dumpsters&#8221; are cleaned and lined in plastic, and a filtration system is installed, as on a regular above-ground pool.</p>
<h3>kgb_   Text your question to 542542. We answer to you.</h3>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oh I come from Alabamy with a banjo on my knee.  </p>
<p>Well, not quite.</p>
<p>Special Agent Damschroder here.  Today was a day of twists and turns.  We began the day in Tuscaloosa, AL, packing up out squad cars to head south to Florida for Spring Break.  As we put our keys in the ignitions, we got a call from the local television station saying that they&#8217;d like to do a story on us.  Off we sped to the University of Alabama to meet with the news team.  After a couple victory laps and an interview, we headed out for Panama City Beach, Fl.  We&#8217;ll be in Panama City Beach for most of the week, so come say hello and get yourself a special KGB T-shirt!</p>

<p>How can the US get out of the recession period?<br />
When is the revolution?<br />
What will be the market bottom?<br />
Will unemployment get getter?<br />
When will Houston&#8217;s economy improve?<br />
How did we, as Americans, let this country go to hell in a handbasket?<br />
How much money is coming to Houston from the Stimulus budget?<br />
How low will the S&#038;P 500 go?<br />
What do you think about the auto-bailout?<br />
Why did the economy get so bad?<br />
When will the economy recover?<br />
Why don&#8217;t we have free health care in the US?<br />
Why was it justified to bail out the auto companies?</p>
