Capitalist Ms. Piggy World ATM 2010

Before certifiable animal activists raise a brouhaha, the voluptuous and beautiful Ms. Piggy and I were both wearing fake Chinchilla furs in this here photo.
About banks...I recommend there should be world wide reform in banking. I was so shocked upon looking at my credit card bank statement after returning from my trip to Italy. I used my debit card to withdraw euros from the hotel ATM. I was charged a humongous fee of $21 (one time only) from the Italian bank and almost $2 from my American bank. The banks all over the world and here in the US are super-duper rich just by the high fees and interests they charge customers. You know, bailing out banks and financial institutions with our own tax money is an idiotic mistake. Why do the people have to pay for those greedy American Idiots?

Multiply Website 2010 Migration

It's more than a year past. I'm so thankful and grateful to MSN Groups for making it possible to migrate to Multiply. I have nothing but praise to high heaven - everything is so convenient (MSN did everything) - - everything is all there and here with photo albums and videos; you can always edit and delete. This is between you and me - I don't need Facebook, Twitter and whatever. Multiply is more than enough for me. I don't need quantity of friends I don't know (sorry) but superior quality which Multiply has. I just ignore my friend's invitation (sorry).

The Good Earth Sunset at North Pole

The beautiful pictures of planet earth by astronaut Sunita Williams. I'm still in wonder why would anyone believe the environmental hoaxers that we can control Mother Nature in this vast universe.

Capitalist Ms. Piggy Property Tax 2010

Recycled Web Page August 2014

_______________________________________

I just could not stop admiring Ms. Piggy everytime I saw her on TV. That Ms. Piggy is so beautiful and voluptious - blonde hair, smiling eyes, smooth skin, and a body that's good enough to eat. I just finished eating fried wild pig and I did not see any difference from eating the pork you buy in a regular store.
I mailed my financial contract reallocation a few weeks ago. I think it's best to ignore the day to day fluctuation, the rise and fall, in the stock market. I just hope my financial advisors know what they are predicting and recommending for me. We'll see in a year.
Holy tamales! I just paid my property tax a few months ago and here it came again! Deadline and payday of March 2nd. I don't understand why would folks with not enough assets and who lost their jobs would buy houses in such volatile housing market? I think it was so ridiculous for real estate banks in the past to accept and give mortgage house buyers with no down payment. It was all the fault of the Democrat legislators in Congress and the Republicans that voted for it. Why would banks give loans to risky customers? Years later, the collapsed of the financial market in Wall Street, The global bailout by the Obama Administration was so scary for the rest of the common folks living in Main Street who had to give Wall Street money in the form of high taxes. No doubt, generations upon generations of Americans have to pay for the trillions of dollars approved by the Obama Administration without any consideration to what the rest of us disapproved of.
Personally, I'm a survivor because I have always been a fiscal conservative. Although, once in a while, I splurge on certain things. I cut money to pieces on my own. I'm for the government cutting taxes. This November I'll vote for candidates (Republicans) who'll cut taxes.

I'm an eternal optimist. Pundits and talk show hosts keep saying the United States is bankrupt. China is holding the purse string. No such thing. I don't believe it and will never believe it. Why so? It's in the songs "America the Beautiful" and "Star-Spangled Banner" - the most bountiful country in the world.
