What can 10 dollars get you around the world?
I found an article on CNN that asked how much you could get for 10 bucks around the world. It was amazing what you can get here and compare it to other places. In Wisconsin, you can get 8 packets of carrot seeds, in Conneticut, you can get 2 sub sandwiches. In Tiawan, you can get 24 pairs of socks and 10 ties. In Philippines, you can get 2 days worth of groceries. In Italy, you can get 2 cups of coffee and 3 pastries. I guess what you get in other countries is not too much cheaper than what you get in the US, you just have to watch your deals. What are you able to get for 10 dollars?

Death from too much virtual gaming....
So, I read on CNN that a couple in South Korea neglected their premie baby because of gaming to the point where it died. How does this happen. I read that they would put the baby to sleep at night and then return in the morning from gaming all night. They were not feeding it right and it lost over a pound to die at 5 lbs 5 oz, and was born at 6 lbs 4 oz. That just makes me sick. They are hoping to get out of jail time because of " gaming addiction " . Really? That is no different from drinking and neglecting your baby. You still killed it. The best part, she is expecting another baby on the way. Wow, you will do so much better with this next one. It should be taken away the minute it is born. They are not fit to be parents. The mom even said she was not sure why the baby lost weight, she was not taught how to raise a baby and did not read up on it. Again, really? It is not that hard, I was not that stupid when I had our daughter. Feed it and change their diapers. Make sure you RESPOND to the crying. AND DON'T LEAVE IT!!!!!! Common sense. Wow, people amaze me with stupidity. What is this world coming to?What are your thoughts on this subject?
