Hello Pezz, Today's Report:

(a) I paid my annual premium for an endowment type of insurance product. Quaint, I know, but I have been doing so since 1993. I figured, correctly, that I can and did beat the implicit returns in the product, could easily have wasted the money on this or that, and the build up in value is not insubstantial;

(b) [WARNING: Adult content!] I got alerted to this ingenious Internet-enabled disintermediation site that combine Ebay style review and comparative shopping price discovery to the world’s oldest profession sex141.com - whoever said HK cannot keep up with modern times?

(c) I drafted a letter that initiates yet another clever idea which may not lead anywhere;

(d) I came home early to meet the car salesman and test drive this Lexus RX-300 SUV lexus.com .

I do not believe I need a car, and had sold my secondhand Mazda 626 earlier this year for USD 1,641 Message 19789055 <<February 10th, 2004>>, but my wife says different, and so I hunted around for the moolah.

I thought I will get this zung-fu.com for a get-about to the supermarket that is one mile away, but wife put the kabosh on the idea ;0
I would have been happy with a minihk.com , and wife said nada to that thought ;0/

So now I must swing for a safe car as transport to the supermarket that is 15 minutes away by walking. At 120% car tax rate in Hong Kong, the RX-300 is a ridiculous shopping cart, and cost ;0(

No, my wife does not drive, although she has a license :0?

As oil price rises, Jay, the contrarian, joins the SUV crowd.

I feel my life force draining away. But, unless Maurice hurries, I will have a Lexus before he does Message 17237296 <<Mar 23, 2002 … I haven't bought the Lexus yet>>

Chugs, Jay
