Insurance Comparison Websites

Last night I innocently went on Insurance comparison site Money Supermarket as i sometimes do, mainly out of boredom due to the lack of programs on the television.

I went on eBay and found a hypothetical car to insure, and then went to see how cheap i could get the insurance for this car. All this seems fair enough, right? That's what i though anyway.

Where to live? UK or USA: A Prospective View

Neither the UK nor the USA are great places to live. With buzzwords such as “shrinks”, “falling”, “slows”, “deficit” and “doubt” plastered on the walls of economic news, coming at living standards from an angle purely defined by trade and industry would be inaccurate. Instead why not look into the one thing that really matters to people; themselves, their lives, their homes, the people that surround them.  At the end of the day they don’t care about what the net pro-rata income figure for an average individual before tax per annum is because, chances are, it doesn’t apply to them. The closest normal, run-of-the-mill people come to GDP is seeing their General Dental Practitioner because they’ve eaten too much crackling at Christmas. 

Great Journalists

“And that’s the way it is”

He was known by some as ‘Old Ironpants’, ‘Uncle Walter’ and even ‘King of the Anchormen’. Of course I refer to broadcast journalist Walter Leland Cronkite.
Lead anchor at CBS Evening News for 19 years, he started breaking the boundaries even after a year. He was the first anchor to have a half-hourly nightly news program in America, expanding from 15 minutes in September 1963.
