Weekend Food For Thought – 4 Feb 2011

ITS THE YEAR OF THE DRAGON!
And so far, this Dragon has been getting his ass kicked! Five days before the new year, on Wednesday 18 January, I contract food poisoning and suffered liquid poop till Saturday. Then on Sunday, new year’s eve, at 4pm, my temperature suddenly soars to 38.3C. My wife gets me to [...]

What a month!!
I started off the month of November on the 2nd with a second surgery in two months – to remove that huge nagging bunion on my right foot. This laid me up for three weeks with a 3.5inch cut that was held together with nine stitches. Needless to say, I was very immobile. [...]

July 2011 Review, August Preview
Roller Coaster. That’s the only way to describe my July 2011 … one helluva roller coaster. And that refers to everything that happened to me and not just in the market.
