Ideas

From time to time, I get an idea in the middle of the night and write it down and do nothing with it. But...now I have a blog, so I can share my ideas that are completely random in the ever evolving public sphere.

1) "Wish Upon A Star" Card - an interest accruing gift card that you can buy from Disney, that works sort of like a savings account. You buy the card when you can afford it, and it gains interest until you can use it. This way if you want to take a Disney vacation in 5 years, you can buy the gift cards in advance which allows you to save some money specifically for your trip, without mixing into your regular savings fold. Another benefit would be, that you could gift a trip to say, your elementary school teacher, who could probably get a $300 gift card every year for five years, and then voila, have a ready made trip fund.

2) No Bailout for Automakers - I think they should have given the money to cities on condition that the cities use the money to buy the greenest cars available from the automakers and give them for free to qualified individual applicants who commute within city limits every day. This way, the cities benefit from cleaner air, the people benefit from the free cars, and the automakers get business without getting rewarded for messing up big time.

My First Thanksgiving

So...what do you want me to do with this thing?


Uh...why are you taking it away?

This girl could be my daughter.

Em even thought it was a picture of her as a baby. But it's a picture of a little child living in Iraq.

Facebooking

I've reluctantly setup a Facebook account. I have been forced into it because as many of you know I have no willpower against addictive videogames like SNOOD. And now, there's Word Challenge. And I have to play.

The Power of Cuteness

Wordgirl, the superhero, finally meets her match in the form of utterly adorable kitten named Little Mittens that completely disables her every time she lays eyes on him. I can empathize with her.

People with Allergies - Rejoice!

"allergies are not merely disorders of the immune system, but rather are the evolved front line of defense against certain parasites and cancers. In sum, allergic reactions may be like fevers and morning sickness: uncomfortable responses that survived natural selection because they provided direct benefits"
