Hi,
I'm reading a good book called The Master key System by Charles F. Haanel.
It was originally published in the early part of the 20th century although it is still relevant today.
Very thought provoking although the language is a bit dated.
Thought for today:- Are you reading any good books which are making you think?
Todays joke:- A quarter of all married men kiss their wife goodbye when they leave the house.Of these same men 90% will kiss their house goodbye when they leave their wife
On this day:- 7th December
In 1941 Japan attacked Pearl Harbour
In 1991 the Serbs bombarded Dubrovnik
and in 1783 William Pitt became prime minister at the age of 24.

Beautiful day
Just got back from taking Owen for his walk. It is a beautiful, crisp frosty morning with a bleak sun shining. Lovely
Yesterday I signed up for some new software to help with my business. I was a bit annoyed initially as after I purchased it I then had to buy an add on. After that there was another bit I had to buy and so on. After the 3rd add on I decided I'd had enough!!
Why do people do that. It may get them more money in the short term but long term this lack of integrity will back fire on them.
Anyrate enough of my gripe let's get positive as life is too short to moan.
Thought for today. Are you compromising your integrity for short term gain?
Joke for today:- Does the name Pavlov ring any bells?
On this day:-26th November
In 1832 New York got it's first streetcars. Horse drawn
In 1922 Charles Schultz was born
In 1939 Tina Turner was born

The Loughborough Fair
Yep it's that time again.
Every year around armistace day we have the annual fair come to Loughborough. Doh! If it's annual it will come every year!!
Yesterday when I went swimming I watched the staff putting up the rides. It was very windy and I was very impressed how they went about it.
The whole of the centre of Loughborough is cordoned off and some very big rides are set up.
It's amazing how technology has brought about even bigger and more complicated rides each year. The cost of some of them must be in the millions bracket.
Still at least we still have the coconut shies etc for the oldies like me!!
Hey what am I talking about I'm not old just a mature youngster.
There have been some very interesting developments in mynetbiz with some exciting new products about to be launched.
Watch this space!!
Thought for today; I hope you are keeping up with all the new technologies coming forth. Great isn't it? I hope you think so.
Joke for today: Did you hear about the new "divorced" Barbie doll? It comes with all Ken's stuff.
On this day:- 12th November
In 1847 the first public demonstration of a new anaesthetic was given in by Sir James Simpson, Professor of Midwifery at the University of Edinburgh. It's common name? chloroform.
In 1660 John Bunyan was jailed for preaching without a licence.
In 1929 Grace Kelly was born
In 1944 the German battleship Tirpitz was sunk by the RAF
Cheers
