In Pursuit of a Hit-and-Run Driver (Apr 25, 2011) I was on my bicycle when a counter-flowing motorbike hit me head-on. I was thrown clear off my bike and landed on the pavement. The right side of my body was in pain. It still wasn't clear to me how extensive my injury was, but I could still manage to talk and move about despite the pain, shock and dizzyness. With presence of mind, I immediately took out my digicam and snapped some pictures. When I told the assailant the cops were on their way, he set out to flee.

As my head was racing, my heart was tentative, not knowing what it wants. I ended up diving the various marine reserves while walking the coast and glimpsing the day-to-day life of the strip's inter-connected lives - the resort staff and guests, the marine reserve caretakers, the local villages, the out-of-town picnickers, and yes, the free-range chickens that'll end up as a flavorful stew...more »» Building Wealth from Within (Apr 12, 2011) Since my realization that the poor house was no longer the place for me, now, 5 months later, my debts are all paid-up, my cash-flow is not only positive but increasing with every passing month, and I'm now developing a sales arm, and soon a team of coders. I have other plans for expansion but they have to wait until certain things are met. So, what made it work?...more »» «« back to March 2011 | forward to May 2011 »» |
