Well fame & fortune = disaster! I always say that God did not want me to be rich because I would just become spoiled & rotten. I still believe that. Too much is no good and this guy is a perfect example and so is everyone in Hollywood!

Oh my...I'm always recycling, reusing & recreating my very own works of art with old finds. You've got to check some of them out by reading some of my posts and tell me what you think of them. We Americans are a wasteful nation.

Aeolian Islands is my next Italy venture. Been to Sicily ~ Agrigento, Sciacca, Vittoria, Palermo, been to Amalfi, Positano, Ravello area, been to Rome and Frosinone. Now I would like to try the islands. It looks like much Greek influence; at least by the photos on internet, it reminds me of Greece.

Didn't know about the air-traffic controller income. Good to know. I'm always passing this information on to my teens. We have the highest paid cops in the nation at approx. 75,000., but our cost of living is high. Also was amazed at the salary of a two-year degree for an ultra sound tech paying at $70,000 to start. Love your blog. Please be sure to stop by and visit.

Yes...walking, jogging, and running will be missed here in NY when the weather gets colder and the days get darker sooner. I am at the gym and miss getting my cardio outside. I hate the treadmill. Don't forget your ipod to make it easier. Freezing food is important to get through those days that you need something quick. Thanks for the reminder because I'm running low too.!
