I remembered the days when I took up a short course by the Alps. During the cold months I felt like a female fashion model, having to stack up on skin care products to keep my skin moisturized. At that time, I remembered buying a small bottle of Estee Lauder for $50 only to find out that an Oil of Olaz was available for $4.. Grrr!! Of course, there are plenty of products now in the market that are as effective and less costly. Those were the days...
A columnist for a Philippine newspaper talks about the costs and massive preparations required by the US Secret Service whenever President Bush and other (US Presidents) travel outside of Washington DC. I remember watching a CNN report that showed how big a US presidential convoy is, compared to the two vehicle transport being used by Prime Minister Tony Blair of the UK.
