24. Who wants to be a Millionaire ...


Many nationalities have moved to North America in various stages of history in search of a better life ... although their life-style may somehow be better here than their homelands ... they have to work very hard and long to pay the expenses of a moderate life-style.

Soon they realise that their only asset, time, is limited ... and no matter how much they work their life-style can not go above a certain level ... as a result they count on their chance/luck to win lottery (less than 1 in 1,000,000) and buy lotto tickets daily ... what a sad ending.

22. Amsterdam ...


I liked many things about Amsterdam ...
Now Ill add to that list ... WIFI ...
There is nothing more entertaining than having (of course you pay for it) a wireless Internet connection to kill 11 hours of time I had to wait for the connection flight ... as I could not exit the terminal ...

21. Shoot ...

This is the second post about old people ... I don't know why? maybe I fancy old birds, maybe I'm getting old, ...

Last night ... I saw an old lady on my floor coming out of her apartment with a small bag ... I gave her a smile and she nodded back ... as I was unlocking my apartment's door ... I noticed that she didn't stop in front of the lift ... I became more curious to see what is she up to ...

The result ... I found out my building has a garbage shoot (after 3 months) and there is no need to take the bags every morning downstairs ...

20. B612 ...


I was trying to meet up with a classmate from 1999, which I knew he was living here.
For almost 3 months, we exchanged emails and phone calls, but always had conflicting plans and were not able to meet up.

Until one evening when I was walking down Yonge street I saw a familiar face with a coffee in his hand and we just walked into each other.

It is an amazing world and sometimes its even smaller than B612 for the Prince.
