Anything new neenga kathutingala? Ite ellam ponnunga koode work-out aaguma-ne think panringala?

Its ok maams ippothike freeya vidu..

I absolutely completely do not fit in.
I don't even know why I try.

Cheetos khao khush ho jao...

When I get REALLY involved with the internets' coming of age tools i feel like i am somehow becoming a virtual entity.

And then I quickly get out.

Then a few weeks later I realize there is so much happening and I am being left behind.

Seriously feel left behind.

Its either the virtual to reality swings thats consuming my time or I need to be a full-time Web 2.0 sponge rss aggregator.

Vice is Nice

I have heard of socially responsible investing and Shariah investing even, but what on earth is a vice fund? Its the exact opposite of being socially responsible and exactly what you think it is. Investing in tobacco, gambling, alcohol, arms, ammunition manufac. and even chocolate (?) companies and apparently they beat even the S&P 500's in their annual returns (29%), now thats some fund.
Charlie Norton the founder argues that the vice fund is "recession proof" simply because people drink, smoke, gamble, fight wars - when they're happy, sad, depressed and the one thing that sure sells during recessions is alcohol!

See more hear more feel more (vice?)
