After I spent my time and energy on reading and commenting on Alexa von Tobel, I went out on a little stroll through that whole Huffington Post.
Amazing...! Mrs. Arianna Huffington really does exist in a totally different ...Universe...! ("My "aha moment" also came on vacation. It happened a few years ago, as I stepped off a tender to board a friend's boat anchored off the coast of Cannes. ...") from the one I live in......! And in that universe, Alexa von Tobel is absolutely nothing special whatsoever- over there Alexa is totally average mainstream. That whole place of hers overflows with the kind of upclass "Reader's Digest" sweet nothingnesses like "the importance of mothering yourself", "6 Tips To Recharge At The Office" or "Love What You Have"
... Darn I somehow got to have me such a life too...!
Somehow I cannot help to think of those girls in that sitcom "Sex and the City". This Alexa seems to have stepped out of that show into reallife- Is she For Real???? Yes in fact she is- She does live the actual life of those characters in that sitcom that me and my friends smirk at for it being soooo unrealistic- Well, we're proven wrong: For a whole bunch of people, the "Sex and the City" lifestyle is more real than we would dare to believe and Alexa von Tobel is a prime example of that.
And that somehow next to at first instance making me going ballistically mad, also makes me smile a bit in tenderness about Alexa- Incredible how naïeve she lives. This person has so much money that she doesn't think one second about what she's actually doing. From $80,- a her day spending on trivial stuff, others have to live a whole month with a whole family. And yet she is a CEO of a financial advice company for women and she does not even blink on spending a tenner on some coffee underway. Because that is her life! That is how she and all the people in her social network live!
And for lots of people, what she does is the dreamlife they never ever will reach- Ahhhh not even to have to stand still to think that the $7,- on the cab to work could be spent way better on bread for the next whole motnh. Ohhh wow not to have to shiver and feel guilty about spending Three whole dollars on licorice instead of vegetables for 2 persons for 2 days!!!
...And she is amazed to discover that one can actually live without all that spending.... How cute in all that naïevity...! How tragic. How deeply saddeningly tragic.
...Perhaps if all those people who live like that would not spent all that excess-cash on stuff like that but daily would donate that -or even only 50% of it!- to charity, a lots of people that have far less could finally be helped to even decent minimal life standards.........
Jellyfish: 89.9% deliberating among themselves and others the greater questions of the Why and How of life's existance in the Cosmos, 9% absorbing food, 1% being jerks and having all fun and laughs about ruining perfectly good Human days at the beach to compensate for the seriousness of their usual pastime. 0.1% just hanging around wondering what to do- taking the micky out of human beachgoers or contamplating the Greater Questions of life.
I stopped taking paper magazines and newspapers when I realised that they made for so much of my paper-waste while at the same time I could read most of the info just as easy on the internet- often wit the added benefit that you can react and see reactions from other readers right then and there if you feel the need to do so.
I now await the developments in the e-reading tech and those other comparable technologies. I see a bright future for magazines and newspapers in that field.
No facebook or hyves or whatever for me thank you!
... Some years beack when it all started with these communities, I went from A), over to P) and then a while H). But that didn't bring what I expected. I became a T) with some of my friends and family and then I just had enough and after I did one more search to see who was out there, I quit alltogether.
Jill refers to the paradox that while snipers in their own army are respected as the best and the most highly skilled of all the warriors (a bit like ...Jedi's), in most wars, caught snipers get no quarter and have been and will be shot on sight without any trial by the opponents. If only because returning a sniper to his own side after having been detained as a prisoner of war can mean that this highly skilled individual will do further damage in ways that normal soldiers are not capable of doing.
War is terrible. Killing is terrible and it is beyond heartcryingly tragic that soldiers, snipers or any other specialists in murdering people are an unavoidable necessity. A good sniper is a tool that can be used in ways no other soldier or special weapon can be used. This one is an expert that desevers all the respect on his craftsmanship.
They have this gasburner and so they want to portay themselves as green- with a commuter-setup for one person per car that is made for 4 and an electrical bike with lots of polluting parts and plastics.
...What about just legpower (one or two folding bicycles or just a smaller more fuel-economic car for greenness...?
Photographically amazing.
I guess she now really could scare the heck out of some folks. Cudo's to her inker.
:lol:

Okay... Seeing this, it might take some while yet...
