Come on. Who’s paying Paris Hilton’s phone bill? According to The Heiress, she does not know. The truth is that tactic probably will allow her to win the lawsuit.
Shoyu thinks the $22 million-a-year estimate is low, the stuff about Leno is awesome. Leno never made shoyu laugh.
BTW, shoyu bets T-Mobile pays Paris’ phone bill. She is the best marketing tool on the planet.

Thanks to Kim Komando, the world knows about the free, online, personal finance course at the University of California.
Now, you too can understand net worth and cash flow. Too bad there’s nothing about retiring early or individual medical insurance.
You don’t need to register to read through the course lessons. If Americans register and pay, shoyu guesses they could become certified financial planners.
Shoyu bets there is a big test to become a CFP, and to be a successful CFP, Americans will need to be good at sales.

If you must leave your house, happy hour is the best time. Many bars and restaurants conduct happy hours during the week.
Happy hour usually means you can get draft beer for less than the normal price or rail/well mixed drinks 2 for 1 during the happy hour.
Happy can last several hours depending on the bar or restaurant.
The above photo shows a lime squeeze for a rail margarita at Mainstreet Pub in Historic Downtown Melbourne. The hour happy at Mainstreet is from 11:30 a.m to 7 p.m. weekdays.

You can save money and make a better margarita by doing it yourself.
Most margaritas made at restaurants or bars are weak because the bartenders add extra sour mix to fill the glass. You can make a real margarita at home without the extra sour mix.
You’ll also find lime juice with a little sugar is better than powdered sour mix. The ingredients I used for the margarita in the above video are better than rail liquor, but not so high-end to be wasted in a margarita.
Putting anejo tequila in a margarita is like mixing Crown Royal with Diet Coke.
Shoyu only needs to make one of the double margaritas to be set for the night. It’s less expensive than buying beer, and I don’t get dehydrated.
BTW, I purchased the bar tools at Wal-Mart, Dollar General and Kmart.
Sauza Reposado is better than Sauza Añejo Conmemorativo, which is less 100 percent agave. Chili’s uses Conmemorativo in its Margarita Presidente.

The New York Times has a short article about American workers worrying they will never be able to retire.
Give me a break. You’re not going to retire in comfort? To shoyu, not working is comfort. Just buy a hut in Argentina and lie out on the beach all day. That’s better than working 40 hours a week for someone else.
According to the Central Intelligence Agency, Spanish is the official language of Argentina. You should not have to worry about illegal drugs in Argentina because most of them are shipped the U.S. Also 97.2 percent of the Argentine population can read.
According to WikiAnswers. it is 4,3782 miles from Miami to Buenos Aires by car. Americans, instead of working until you die, just quit and drive south.
You know, gasoline is less expensive in Argentina.
