Hamster Update

I just realized that the last hamster post was way back in December.
A lot has happened in little Eduard's life since then. The main thing being that he had a very rough time and is getting old. I thought he was about two and a half, but looking back I think he is somewhat younger. I don't know. I will ask Marianne.

I am pretty sure that he is going to die soon. He has been a lot less perky lately and slept most of the time. The last two days he almost stopped eating. And this morning he can hardly walk and doesn't seem to recognize me at all. :-(

I hope he is "just" old and not in pain. It is kind of hard to tell with hamsters, since they are good at covering up sickness. Judging from what I know about hamsters he doesn't look like he is sick. But then again, what do I know about hamsters? Today he looks like he is in pain, and that is new. :-/

Well, there isn't much I can do other than wait and see - certainly not one of my strengths...

By :RE: RE: Duh, the stimulus wokerd. You guys are a few tools short of a full shed. Look at it this way- let's say I make $75,000 a year (year 1) as a janitor at city hall and I spend every penny of it. Then the budget crunch (recession) comes along and my hours get cut to 35 hour a week ($65,000/yr) from 40. It's my own personal recession! But lucky for me stupid banker china-guy comes along and lends me $25,000 dollars! So in year 2 my spendable income as a practical matter is $90,000!!! And what do I do? I spend it! Like Obama, I give all my friends treats like dinner out (bail-outs), free golf, and we all stay in the cabin I rent at the lake for two weeks. Spending is up! GDP is up! Many jobs at the restaurants and golf course have been added or saved because of my good stimulus fortune and stupid banker's lack of math skills. Yup, this stimulus is a success!Now what happens in year 3? China-guy won't lend me another $25 large because I really only make $65,000 a year as a janitor in city hall. Since I won't be going back to the golf course, cabin, or fancy restaurants those jobs that were added or saved are now gone again, perhaps for good. Because you see, now I have to make at least the interest payments on the $25,000 I borrowed, so my real spendable income has actually gone down. What???!! Yup, interest doesn't get me anything in terms of lifestyle, but it does make chinese-guy happy- until I stop paying. . . But that's another story. Is the light starting to go on for any of you stimulus nuts, or is this a lost cause?you really don't know how stimulus works. the stimulus wokerd. deal with it. the CBO study shows it. so does the moody's study put out by former mccain economic advisor mark zandi. Now what happens in year 3? China-guy won't lend me another $25 large because I really only make $65,000 a year as a janitor in city hall. beacause you spent the earlier money you don't need to borrow another 25k because you jump-started the economy. but your analogy doesn't really work because a person doesn't get the benefit of higher revenues like a government does.stimulus=higher revenue=lower debt.

By :By :25-30% of the work force working for <a href="http://nicyqhyu.com">gonervement</a> (local, state, federal)I don't know how you could have come up with 25-30%, it looks to me like 8% of the workforce is employed by the government.My observations are mostly based on gut feel. But, it's amazing how 8% of the workforce off the 520 bridge on a government holiday seems to take 50% of the cars off the roadway. I did a few searches myself (of course looking for the highest number and not the lowest) showing in a study by Economist Gary Shilling stating calculated that 58 percent of the population is dependent on the government for major parts of their income, including teachers, soldiers, bureaucrats, and other government employees; welfare and Social Security recipients; government pensioners; public housing beneficiaries; and people who work for government contractors. By 2018, Shilling estimates, an astounding 67 percent of Americans could be dependent on the government for their livelihood .No matter the numbers, people working or depending on goverment is growing and income levels are deflating. Yes, home prices could go up in the long run; but it would be due to hyper-inflation and a loaf of bread would be $10 too.I know predicting home prices going down on a housing blog is not going with the flow. But, parabolic increases in prices whether in gold, stock or housing is usually followed by a parabolic move downward. Just as stock prices cross the 50 and 200 day averages, home prices are due to move down. My guess is prices will move across the 100 year price trend and home prices are truely tied to income levels and not a couple month price bottom or a statement that prices are higher in San Francisco or New York; so Seattle prices will go up to these same levels.My simple logic is as long as incomes levels are going down, the 520 bridge is empty on government holidays, baby boomers are kicking the bucket, my friends have unemployed house guests and I see lots of street camping in cars, vans and broken down Winnebagos; prices are going to continue going down.

I must express some aeaipciptron to you just for rescuing me from this difficulty. Because of researching throughout the online world and finding techniques which are not pleasant, I assumed my entire life was done. Living minus the answers to the issues you have solved through your entire website is a critical case, and ones which could have negatively affected my career if I had not discovered your site. Your main natural talent and kindness in taking care of all the details was priceless. I don't know what I would've done if I had not come across such a solution like this. It's possible to at this time look forward to my future. Thanks a lot so much for the impressive and effective guide. I won't hesitate to propose your web page to any person who should receive tips about this matter. http://kkgxftgde.com [url=http://wceecdkgfsu.com]wceecdkgfsu[/url] [link=http://yrvvhmevvs.com]yrvvhmevvs[/link]

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword....wait there's even more Now what if i told you there was a simple Wordpress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That's right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. <a href="http://www.SEORankingLinks.us">Seo Plugin</a>
