Thought for the Day

[Duke of Buckingham]

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.

Thomas Jefferson

[Duke of Buckingham]

Money and happiness are they really connected?

More money, more happiness or more money less happiness.

What do you think? Is money and happiness connected or are they incompatible or happiness is nothing to do with money. I would like to know your opinion about that. Wasn't so good we could make a quote about money and happiness maybe the most quoted basic ideas.

Tell me what you think ...

[Duke of Buckingham]

“Reality is not protected or defended by laws, proclamations, ukases, cannons and armadas. Reality is that which is sprouting all the time out of death and disintegration.”

Henry Miller

[Duke of Buckingham]

All credibility, all good conscience, all evidence of truth come only from the senses.

Friedrich Nietzsche


The senses deceive from time to time, and it is prudent never to trust wholly those who have deceived us even once.

Rene Descartes

Retirement Planning

If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00. With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left. If you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock, you would have $49.00 left. But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of wine one year ago, drunk all the wine, then turned in the bottles for the recycling REFUND, you would have had $214.00. Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle. **************************************

It is a secret c303a because I can not see almost nothing. The text can not be seen. Except if you highlight it.

I don't know what it is. I can read it perfectly. Are you wearing sunglasses over there?

[Duke of Buckingham]

No I am with the white screen and with that screen we can not read the text. In fact I use glasses but they are not sun glasses they are reading glasses.

I say you had changed the background color but the ones that are with the default background can not read your post.

I was only trying to say that c303a.

Sorry, let's try this. I don't know what happened on the original one. If it's not right please feel free to edit.

No problem c303a. Maybe my ideas get mixed to try to explain them in English.

I was only trying to alert you, nothing else mate.
