Today, I had lunch with my sisters at the Venetian. Then I drove them to the Main Street Casino where they will stay for the next 3 days.
Then I went gambled at the casino and lost. It is a good thing that gold jumped up today. I also worked on my www.success101.biz site. I am changing the appearance. It is still not completed. I collect casino chips so I also bought some chips today. To see the chips that I have for sale, go to http://www.ethingamajigs.com/agora/agora.cgi?cart_id=5234932.25877*v68ZQ4&hdr=Casino_Chips&product=Casino_Chips.
For dinner, I met some friends at the NOVE restaurant at the Palms casino. It is a very nice high class Italian Restuarant. The food was great, but it is pricey. I am so glad that it was comped by the casino.
I am tying to lose weight so this was a bad day for losing weight. I ate too much and probably gained instead of losing. I am trying to lose about 13 lbs. I may have to resort to exercising. Just kidding. I would never resort to exercising. Just kidding again. I exercise, but not as often as I should.
Have a great day!

Gold jumps up
I didn't post yesterday so I am posting now first thing this morning. Yesterday gold dropped a few dollars, but today at this time it is up $11.30. I will probably buy a few more contracts now that it is over $640. I will check my program to see if I received a buy signal.
I added a few items to my blog site yesterday. Check out the "What will it matter" poem. Be sure to have your audio on and drag the mouse across the poem. It will make your day happier.
I also added a sound clip of Jim Rohn speaking about success. It is the intro to his "Challange to Succeed" seminar. I think that you may like it.
I didn't play at the casino yesterday, but my sisters arrived from Ohio and I picked them up at the airport. They are staying at the Venetian and I visited with the there.
My wife, Raye, met us there. She had spent all day Christmas shipping and doing all the things to get ready for Christmas.

Sprint PCS is driving me crazy.
Today gold was down over $7 when I first checked it at about 8 am. Finished down $2.90. Still no sell signal. As I write this, is it up $1.90 for a drop of $1. Won at the casinos.
Then I decided to upgrade my 3 cellphones to cellphones with bluetooth. I went to a Sprint store. After waiting about 30 minutes, they told me that I couldn't get the $150 rebate. I could only get a $75 rebate. Since I have 3 lines and was going to buy 3 phones, this was $225 difference. So I started driving home and, as I drove, I called Sprint. The representative gave me the $150 rebate by adding a code to my account. She said that I could go to the Sprint store and get the deal on the phones that I wanted. I wanted the Katana by Sanyo. I was going to get 2 of them and one of the Samsun A640.
I went back to the Sprint store. Waited again for about 30 minutes. Finally, a representative called me and I told her what I wanted. She said the I didn't have a $150 rebate only $75. So I called Sprint and, after about 20 minutes on the phone, was told that I now had the $150 rebate. I then ordered the 3 phones.
Sprint had a special where you bought one Katana and you got one free. I was told that I would not get the special because it was only for new customers. I was so exasperated that I decided to just forget it for now. I had wasted all afternoon dealing with Sprint.
However, all in all, it has been another great day in paradise. I won at the casino. Gold is still looking good. The weather is beautiful. I have a great life and good health. What more could anyone want?

My first try at blogging!
This will be a short post. It is my first try at blogging. I like to start interesting projects to see how successful they can be. I have started several businesses and sold them. Then at 55, I retired. Since I retired, I have imported diamonds from India, imported crystal from China, had an Ebay store, invested in stocks and futures daily, and now have 3 web sites not including this blog.
My web sites are:
My web sites are:
- Success 101 which is a free course on success at http://www.success101.biz
- E Thingamajigs which is a unique online store at http://www.ethingamajigs.com
- E Sell Your Stuff which helps you sell your stuff on line at
www.esellyourstuff.com.
I have a software program that I wrote for futures. Now, I have several Feb. gold contracts. I am holding them until I get a sell signal from the program. I believe that gold will hit at least 700 and maybe 800 by the end of the year, but I will sell my futures if I get a sell signal.
