Citizenship Marketplace

2008-07-26T18:35:00.001-06:00

This is a follow up to the "Citizenship For Sale?" conversation. In the first conversation, many folks were concerned about the morality of selling their own citizenship ... that concern is right on target and it was pleasant to see our dNeeroites question that possibility. However, Nobel Laureate Gary Becker's proposal has to do with the U.S. government selling the right to legal immigration. Can such a proposal work in the U.S. ... could it work for other countries? Can the law of supply and demand work to solve immigration problems?

Virgo Horoscope for the Day

2008-07-24T15:25:00.003-06:00

The Bottom Line: Be careful giving away too much to other people just for that sake of being nice.

In Detail: Good manners are always appropriate, but sharing is not. Know the difference today, because you have to be careful about giving away too much to other people just for the sake of being nice. If you share your resources in your typically generous way, you are going to end up with the short end of the stick. People are looking out for themselves right now, and they won't think twice about taking advantage of you. It's hard for you to say no, so don't even offer in the first place.

~ Hmnn... this got me thinking. *.*

Precious Metals Investment

2008-07-18T10:54:00.001-06:00

If you want to invest in something that doesn't depreciates easily over time then why not consider investing on silver, gold or other precious metals? This kind of investment is fast becoming popular among investors around the world because they have seen the scarcity of these metals. And of course, if supply is scarce, their prices would obviously go up in the market. You see, there's no better time to invest in precious metals than NOW!

So what are you waiting for? Visit Monex.com, America's premier precious metal dealer to purchase silver, gold bullion or other precious metals and coins for immediate personal delivery or arrange for convenient and safe storage at an independent bank or depository. Remember, if it is silver or gold investing, Monex is the right company for you!

What do you do when you are feeling very sad or depressed?
~ I go shopping but if the husband is around, I talk to him.

Who was your first crush?
~ I think it was Baselliv. We were classmates for 3 consecutive years because we both belong to the accelerated class. The last time I heard, he's already married and has 2 kids now.

If given a chance to skip work for a day (without repercussions), how would you spend the entire day?
~ Go to the beach and spend the whole day and night there. With the husband of course! If he's not available, then it's time to give out the party invitations! ;)

Bonneville Salt Flats

Sorry for the poor resolution. I don't have the digital copy of the photo so I just took a snap of the photo my friend gave me. We were on our way to Wendover, Nevada that day and Reggie decided we stop by there and take photos! ;)
Bonneville Salt Flats is one of the most unique natural features in Utah which stretches over 30,000 acres. The area is extremely flat and aligned nearly perfectly with the shape of Earth, allowing visitors to see the curvature of the planet by producing an optical illusion that makes many of the mountains within the vicinity appear to be floating in the air since their bases are on the other side of the curve and thus out of sight. Pretty cool, huh!? :)

~ Now it's time for me to check on this ellipticals. We badly need one to get into shape. Ta-ta!
