Thanksgiving, Birthdays and Banking

Thanksgiving is sadly long gone, but the turkey, stuffing, roast potatoes, veggies and cake and ice cream was definitely worth the massive cleanup after! I have a feeling that I am going to be taking bags of leftovers back to Boston, which will be good for my tummy and my wallet.
It was my sisters surprise birthday party today. I took her with Granddad out to a shop to buy a board game and when she got home a bunch of her friends popped out of their hiding spots and scared the living daylights out of her. Of course this was followed by presents, pizza and cake!
And tomorrow its one of my sisters friends bar mitzvah where more food and cake will be available… I cant wait!
I think I might get into stocks and investing. I opend an account with a online brocarage (Ing Direct Share Builder), and I guess im just tesing the waters. I have no idea what to expect, how to go about investing but I want to get involved. After all it will help the economy right?
Right??

greed? food! Mum, im so happy for you that you have a shamba and an awesome cook (peter) to cook for you but I DONT! all the veggies here have been sprayed, etc, and winter is coming on. i need fat and protein, i eat veggies but meat is also a big part of my diet. why cant anyone just face the facts and acknowledge that the way we live is unsustainable and eating only vegetables is not the only solution! Nature is the past, technology is the future. New technologies are flawed and inefficient, but if we work we can innovate, improve ideas and invent new systems and products to tackle the issues and problems of today. There is no going back to being chimps and munching on fruit and veg all day, evolution does work backwards.
