One wonderful way to while away time is to play golf on your mobile phone. I enjoy playing the Pro Tour Golf with my Nokia mobile phone.

Debt that the British had incurred for the last decade has been astonishing $2.8 trillion or 1.4 trillion pounds, according to that New York Times article.
Spending more than one can earn is dangerous. Being in debt is not a good thing. So how would one pay for those debts? With used designer shoes? With foreign holidays already consumed? With used designer clothes? I don’t think so. As if there is still value with these goods that were purchased through credit.
People have things so easily these days, it seems. Children having their own cellphones or laptops. People getting trendy cars and designer clothes and tech gadget that get out of style after a few months. Whatever happened to delayed gratification? Whatever happened to working to earn to be able to buy what one needs or wants?
However and whatever people spend their money on, I think, in my humble opinion, it is better to pay in cash than pay with a plastic card where you end up paying more. Or swimming in debt.
Texting or sending sms has changed the way people communicated with each other. No, not only that, it has changed the way family dynamics has evolved. No, not only that, texting has changed the way personal relationships, friendships, business partnerships, and whatever kind of relationship that needs constant communication.
As a matter of fact, the texting frenzy as well as the chat culture has in itself a whole new language that adults will surely have a hard time understanding.
Below are a few chat symbols that represent something else to the trained eye. Are you ready to take the challenge to guess what these are?

Here is a useful guide: Webopedia.
Read an interesting New York Times article.
Blogging is the new media. A blogger can disclose as much personal affairs as one feels comfortable doing so. Or a blogger can choose to be discreet.
A blogger can fabricate lies and weave stories he believes in his mind are true. Or just state facts and real events and people.
A blogger can talk about his past and future plans. Or choose not to.
Speaking of which, there are several blogging hazards that a blogger can get.
For example, Kazuyoshi Miura. He is a Japanese blogger. He blogged about going to Saipan. But when he got there, he was arrested. Why? Read the story here, here, here and here.
Who? Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao of the Philippines versus Juan Manuel Marquez of Mexico in a match to get the WBC 130-Pound title at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, March 15, 2008.
Yeah, after four years when their match was a draw. Was it that long ago? I am not a fan of boxing. I just wanted to know the results so I went to search for the results.
It is a victory for the country, as they say. And yes, I agree.
But would this make us a better nation? Better people?
The media even says that when Pacquiao (great, several times i have misspelled the name) has a boxing match, the whole country is watching and there is zero crime rate. That is good news for this nation who has a lot of petty crimes going on daily. Now, we wouldn’t want Manny Pacquiao fighting the whole time so there would be totally zero crime rate.
