Making money: The fast and easy way - Is it wrong or is it sin?

Just Google make money easy or make money from home or something like that - and you'll get tonnes of results which purport to be valid ways of making money - quick, and easy. The funny thing is - some of them end up asking you to pay out a hefty amount of anywhere between $10 to $90 (for courses and material on making money from home) to start off on this easy way of making money. Then, we have pay-to-click services (some of which are totally free) and other services such as Agloco or mGinger which seem to be a bit more trustable. But really, where does this all leave us? I've got some Google referral packs on this blog itself, which, if ppl sign up, I get paid for it. :) Seeing that I'm not yet a millionaire, you can guess how effective that has been :P Anyways, at the end of it all, I guess it doesn't matter as to whether or not we sign-up on any of these sites - but it matters if we are obsessively caught up in trying to make money. Really, if we spend all tha...

Return of the Ads

Yep... :) Except this time, it's not Ad content relevant to the text on this page. So I don't need to worry about crazy religious Ads. This time, I'm using Google referrals. This way, I get to decide what goes on my blog. :)

More Than Anything

There's this awesome song composed and written by Jon Mohr & Randall Dennis - performed by Christian contemporary greats - Point of Grace - in 1992. It goes a little bit like this :             God loves people more than anything             God loves people more than anything             More than anything He wants them to know             He'd rather die than let them go             'Cause God love people more than anything             God loves the weary when they're too weak to try             He feels their pain, He knows their shame      ...

Did Paul make Christian tents?!

Bemused - that I certainly am. Seriously, was Paul making Christian tents? I mean, did he smear them with the Ichthus , the cross and the like, or did he forego them to favour market appeal? Many Christians today (including myself) search for the Christian element in life. We listen to Christian music, read Christian books, listen to Christian speakers, why, we even have Christian bumper stickers and such. In reality, how Christian do these Christian articles make us? Let's stop and consider for a moment... How far are we gonna take it? Stop buying bread from the baker cos that's where the heathens buy it? Stop getting our hair cut from our barber cos that's where the people-of-the-world get their hair cut? Really... We work in the same offices as the people of this world. We utilise the same public services - telecom, transport, utility services - as the people of this world do. We are aliens - that goes without saying. But we are supposed to be in this world.... It...

aJCfreak

aJCfreak. It's a simplified version of "A Jesus Freak". I flicked the concept from the dc Talk. There was a phase back in college, when I used to mutilate furniture (cots, desks, tables, chairs) with the phrase A Jesus Freak woz 'ere... and thats when I decided to go in for an email ID that reflected this too. It was the middle of 2005, I guess (May-June) and I'd jus gotten an invite to Gmail... so I got it - ajcfreak at gmail dot com. Since then, it's been a long time in catching on, but it's finally caught on - atleast in ma head. So that's what I am - aJCfreak. Atleast, I try to be at most times. More often than not, I fail... But mostly, I stand on His grace. FYI, here's a list of some places where I've signed up with this particular alias: 1. Wikipedia (English) plus my IDs on many of the sister projects of Wikipedia 2. Online Photo album 3. Blogger - this blog that you're reading right now! 4. YouTube! 5. Online storage space on e-S...

Hangin' out

Del P, Dhanu, Aneks, Dandyboy and Kave... Who's missing? Geen, of course! What happens when most of your usual friends don't turn up and you're kinda lost and feeling outta place at a Knaniah-ite wedding? Well, you hang out with ppl you've never hung out with. And it was wonderful... Serious. I never thought that I would one day be hanging out with these exact people.... Was really nice. And better yet when Geen joined us - we were a merry lil crowd. Of course, time didn't permit us to freak out as they say... but we did get to drive around KTYM in a mad rush to ensure that Dh caught her train on time, that An and Ge caught their bus and that we (Del P, Kave and me) could make it to Kumaragam. ;-) Like I told Kave, thank God for his awesome Viva with the Air con and the music collection et al... Was a blessed time. About the D4C and the Kumaragom trip, I'll write more when I've got those pix - probably sometime next week. :-) And I guess I know now why Ker...

Wedded 'n glad

When you've just stepped into the bride-to-be's ancestral home, and the bride's bro asks you "Would you like to freshen up?" while holding out a towel, it does not mean you take a bath! Cos if you do, then you might end up finding (like I did) that the entire household (yep - extended family included) was waiting for you to finish so that lunch could be served..... Very embracing moment, that! So she's married. And that's definitely a wow. This is the first person within the close circle of friends from College to get married. And what a match, too! Her hub's beyond doubt, the chubbiest tall, good-lookin dude I've ever seen. And they look good together, by all means... This match is made not only in Heaven, but on Earth too ;-) Chk da pic. It really was a nice experience - I didn't understand a word of the entire ceremony. I was actually waiting for " ... in sickness and in health.... in blah and in blah-blah... until death do us part...
