These days, insurance plays a big role in our life. We take great pains to insure we maintain the same lifestyle we are accustomed to. Everything we value is insured - our life, our limps (for the athletes, dancers and musicians among us), our homes, our cars, our yachts, travel, medical, you name it.
Let's talk a little bit about health insurance. Even though we have health insurance, the package normally does not cover one hundred percent. The fact is, there would be some aspects not covered. That is how it works.
That is where medicare supplement comes in. It fills the gaps a regular health insurance misses.

Need Foreclosure Help?
Foreclosure is not a positive word. It is indeed unfortunate to have to go through a foreclosure. Many of us are not familiar with this term or action, which is a good thing really because it means you have no need to go through this hassle.
But should we or anyone we know come face-to-face with it, do we know enough to deal with it? Are we able to give useful advice on it? When it boils down to that, we need foreclosure help. We need expert advice to know what it is or how to mitigate the effects or even ways to prevent it, if at all possible.

Burma needs help
Burma has been devastated by a cyclone — and by the military junta's failure to help its people cope. Tens of thousands of Burmese are dead. More than 40,000 are missing. A million are homeless. Help raise relief funds for distribution by Burma's monks:

The Bathtub Test
This one is getting me through this hump day! Enjoy..
During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director, "How do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized."
'Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub.'
'Oh, I understand,' said the visitor. 'A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.'
'No.' said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?'
ARE YOU GOING TO PASS THIS ON, OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE ?

Are You On Phentermine?
Hey, I'm glad you people (who read my blog) are slim and trim. But, I don't think I can say the same (slim and trim) for most of the people I meet on the streets. I notice more and more young people are packing on those pounds, probably in part due to the vast variety of fastfood available. Yeah, blame it on something or other.
Our busy lifestyle is not helping. Lack of self-discipline is another. So what do we do? We want something quick and convenient. We turn to diet pills. But how do we know which brand is the one for us? If you are contemplating a purchase, it is only natural that you would want to know how each brand stacks up against the other. For example, Phentermine ranks at #35 out of the Top 200 Diet Pills reviewed. Where does your brand stand?

Cold Turkey
Everywhere you turn - BBC, CNBC, magazines, radio, the papers, your neighbour, your mom - you hear people lamenting about the high cost of living and the ever-increasing prices of goods and services. It's nice to be a bee, even a busy bee at that.
...and modern living with all its splendour and indulgences, one wonders whether it is at all possible to go cold turkey on them.
...and what golden nuggets you could find on YouTube.

Sunset last Friday
These sunset pictures were taken last Friday, May 2. As I was locking up to go home, I couldn't help noticing that the sun was exceptionally orange and its outline was clear against the sky. It was fast descending behind the two tall buildings so out came the camera though the pictures do not do it justice - not zoomed in enough, plus, tinted glass.
Over at another blog, Andie posted a picture of the sun taken the same day which shows the sun being closed in by a broad ring of grey with a rainbow-coloured border. Go check out the awesome picture.
