Today is my Son's Birthday. Happy Birthday David!




Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day here in the U.S.

Today is Blue Monday as well. Definition of Blue Monday:

"
Blue Monday is a name given to a date calculated to be the most depressing day of the year.

This date was calculated by Dr Cliff Arnall, at the time a researcher/tutor at the University of Cardiff's Center for Lifelong learning, and has been quoted in the popular press. However, Guardian columnist Dr Ben Goldacre stated: "the fact is that Cliff Arnall's equations are stupid, and some fail even to make mathematical sense on their own terms." The Guardian later printed a statement from Cardiff University distancing themselves from Dr Arnall: "Cardiff University has asked us to point out that Dr Cliff Arnall... was a former part-time tutor at the university but left in February."

The date was calculated to be 24 January in 2005, 23 January in 2006, 22 January in 2007, and January 21 in 2008.

The date was calculated by using many factors, including: weather conditions, debt level (the difference between debt accumulated and our ability to pay), time since Christmas, time since failing our new year’s resolutions, low motivational levels and feeling of a need to take action. This date typically falls on the Monday of the last full week of January. This would make 21 January the Blue Monday of 2008.

Dr Arnall has also calculated the happiest day of the year. In 2005 he found it was 24 June and in 2006 it was 23 June For this he used a formula which uses factors including: the outdoors, nature, social interaction, childhood summers and positive memories, temperature and holidays."


So are you Blue Today? I'm not. And hope you're not either.

Just received an update from FastProfitPro. They have a few changes that will start on the 22nd (which is later today for those of us in the U.S.). The Admin mentioned low deposits on their Jan 21st server day and he didn't know why.
Could it be because of "Blue Monday"? Here are the changes and I'm fine with them. Already made a new deposit this morning.

"
-Max deposit amount per day per member would be increased to $2000
-Rates for LR deposits will be 15% daily for 8 days
-Rates for STP deposits will be 10% daily for 12 days

p.s. Rates for STP will be the same as LR once it rebounds back to normal so do not worry too much about unfairness."

Did anyone receive their "weekly commission report" from 10DollarsWonder last night? I didn't but maybe you did and could let us know?

I also purchased 5 new positions in 10dw the other day along with 5 new positions in e2ePay as well. They're both doing great with no end in sight!
