I came across a website the other day that promised easy money by 'processing e-mails'. 30 Euros per e-mail processed, guaranteed! Typically, if you signed up with this service, they'd have you process 10-20 e-mails a day, which means you'd earn 300-600 euros a day...which is a helluva lot of money. All that is required of those doing the processing is that they have a working Internet connection and an e-mail address, and then the money would start rolling in immediately. The website made it clear the content of the e-mails to be processed were 'not of a sexual nature', quotes a registration number with the Chamber of Commerce, and publishes a number of testimonials from satisfied processors who claim to be stay-at-home mums or people who have been able to pay off their debts through signing up, but I don't know; it sounds decidedly iffy to me. I guess it must be some kind of spamming service, and I hate spam. Still, for a minute there, I was tempted.
I got the heads-up about a month and a half ago that hp is hiring again, but I decided against it because I couldn't face having to commit myself to that horrendous 2 hour daily commute each way again; now I'm wondering if I haven't been too hasty in discounting the possibility.
And so we come to Day 06 of the 30 Day Movie Meme, and the subject is: 'Movie that makes you cry every time'.
In truth, I haven't seen this film that many times, but I remember it as quite beautiful and sad. There are so many sad movies out there that it's hard to pick out just one...and besides, I usually find something to cry about in each and every film I watch.

Still, you can't be blamed for wearing trackies. I have to admit that I bought two pairs of flannelette PJ bottoms this winter and I've been loving them for wearing around the house. They are warmer and more comfy than trackies. I'll be getting more next year, for sure! :)
I've only seen My Own Private Idaho once, so I don't remember much about it, but I strongly remember the rural scenes - the tranquility of it - and for some reason, I can almost smell the potatoes. :) And of course, there's the tragedy of River Pheonix's death.
I think I've seen My Own Private Idaho twice, but I cried both times which means that technically, it's a movie that makes me cry every time!
To October!
And To Volunteering!
'Fraid so! I was telling my work coach about it, and he went and had a look at the site, copied the Chamber of Commerce reg number and, since all these public authority databases are linked, found there's no such number registered. So scam, definitely!
(I didn't mention this in my entry, but the thing that made me most suspicious, was the fact that apart from the CoC number, there were no contact details...and that in order to set up the connection between your and their computers, you'd have to pay them a fee of 79 euros up front).
