RSS

I searched for feeds available on the Courier Mail site, simply because of the local content. I was surprised at the variety of feeds available. 

When I am taking a particular interest in a subject, I would appreciate the simplicity of RSS feeds to keep up to date. Perhaps weather alerts would be of interest now that we are entering the storm & cyclone season.

"In one case out of a hundred a point is excessively discussed because it is obscure; in the ninety-nine remaining it is obscure because it is excessively discussed." (Edgar Allan Poe)

Money, Money, Money

The following verse is widely thought to be
the work of Edgar Allan Poe.
Any tips on increasing your money are welcome at the moment!




I'll tell you a plan for gaining wealth,
Better than banking, trade or leases -
Take a bank note and fold it up,
And then you will find your money in creases!
This wonderful plan, without danger or loss,
Keeps your cash in your hands, where nothing can trouble it;
And every time that you fold it across,
'Tis as plain as the light of day that you double it!
