Ever paid too much for something?

eBay appears to have paid about $1.43 Billion too much for Skype. You can read more about this here and here. This is an interesting development because Skype was the hot thing a few years ago, enabling people around the world to talk for free from computer to computer. I love their service and use it most every day.

Rumour has it that Microsoft may be trying to purchase an interest in FaceBook. Something tells me that a few years from now, a similar paid-too-much story will be appearing!

Beautiful Nature

I just had to post this photo, which I took Tuesday evening as my first plane was descending into Houston, Texas. Click on this thumbnail and you will see a magnificent swath of colours!

Christmas Morning Back in Vancouver

Phone circuits are funky this morning so I had to use Skype to make a local call! Arriving back home last night, there's little to no food in my apt. and today's not exactly king of availability. So my mom and I are going to go out for Dim Sum at Szechuan Chongqing. She was shocked they're open but I was pretty sure they would be. Yum, yum, yum in 15 minutes!!!
