This comment has NOTHING to do with your post.
Mummy!!! *sniff*
I looked for POM Wonderful at Wal*Mart--they didn't have it. Online it said Safeway carried it in Hawaii, so I called the Safeway closest to my house, but they didn't carry it either! *sob*
I s'pose I could order it online--there was a link for that!
Also, didja read my post to you in OB's Musings?

Ah, but is it greed....or desperation?
I have been hooked by things like this, not because I am greedy, but because I live on a small income and have two kids to care for. There's a lot more expense than income in my life. The prospect of more than a year's salary coming to me for a few minutes of e-mailing is definitely enticing.
With an extra year's salary, I could pay all my credit cards off, pay my property taxes and income tax for the year, pay my health and life insurance premiums for the year, invest a bit for the kids' educations, replace the headliner in my car and give it a paint job (the paint has flaked off of half of the roof and trunk...), get someone to fix my bathroom so the mushrooms and slugs will no longer be in residence.....in other words, get my financial life on an even keel and do some important projects that have been put off repeatedly for lack of funds.
I guarantee you, I would not be taking a trip to Europe or a Caribbean cruise.

It's Sad That...
...emails that rely on the greed of the recipient are always more successful than those that rely on, say, their compassion, or generosity.
