		<description><![CDATA[As soon as I got my degree and became financially independent, I made it a point to reward myself the gift of travel. I no longer needed to ask for permission from my parents to travel, much less the travel expenses. Visiting the United States became an annual gift to myself.

		<description><![CDATA[In this season of giving, love and joy, it is disturbing to hear about someone  having the audacity to swindle a so called friend.  Wanting more material things with the end in mind to flaunt, and trying hard to be generous to impress, more so, if  you can&#8217;t  afford to pay up and giving your [...] <span style="color:#777"> . . . &#8594; Read More: <a href="http://julianaslair.com/2009/12/22/you-are-shameless-and-despicable/">You Are Shameless And Despicable!</a></span>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Did you happen to join the TEA party yesterday? I&#8217;m not referring to the usual English afternoon tea party, but more accurately the 750 tax day &#8220;tea parties&#8221;  held in protest against higher taxes and government spending from Boston to San Diego. The word &#8220;TEA&#8221; have been re-purposed and turned  into acronym for Taxed Enough [...] <span style="color:#777"> . . . &#8594; Read More: <a href="http://julianaslair.com/2009/04/16/the-tea-party/">The TEA Party</a></span>]]></description>

Yes, in the mail, to the Internal Revenue Service in Hartford, Connecticut, payable to the United States Treasury. And yes, it&#8217;s been so many years of paying taxes, [...] <span style="color:#777"> . . . &#8594; Read More: <a href="http://julianaslair.com/2009/04/04/deadline-is-almost-here-have-you-paid-your-taxes/">Deadline Is  Almost Here, Have You Paid Your Taxes?</a></span>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We renew the insurance of our vehicle every six months. If you remember, I have written about the unusually high rates we have been paying on our auto insurance despite of the fact that we haven&#8217;t made any claim, that the car is five years old and equipped with anti-theft device (LOJACK) and that we [...] <span style="color:#777"> . . . &#8594; Read More: <a href="http://julianaslair.com/2008/12/02/renewal-in-a-few-months/">Renewal In A Few Months</a></span>]]></description>

No, I&#8217;m not referring to her weekend TV show, a show that my husband and I religiously tune in to every Saturday nights, but different shows other than hers. And most of these shows are on prime time.
