A price of success.

Apr

You can not have it both ways, or can you?

You must be willing to pay the price for success.

I heard this from Mr. Ralph Broksos, http://www.rbruksos.com/, who spoke at Seattle Executives Association meeting today. For some people, the price for success is too high to bare. For some, even with the high prices of success, success is out of reach. But one thing for sure, unless you are willing to pay the price, you will never succeed in anything.

I guess it is called "Fair Exchange". Most of us, we cannot have it both.

When theres a blackout, there is someone working to fix it; when water pipes break, there is someone working to fix it; when there is an accident at the nuclear reactor, there is someone that goes to fix that, too. Things dont just get up and running again on their own. As we sit inside waiting impatiently for things to return to normal, there is always someone out there in the freezing cold, selflessly working their hardest to fix it.

This is just one of them. Read them all at http://prayforjapan.jp/message/?lang=en

Teeth Cleaning for Dogs

Apr

18

I took Tiny, Pompom and Nano to All The Best in Redmond to clean their teeth. It is done without an anesthesia. It only takes 10 to 15 per dog. It is really fast and the result is amazing.

They come to this location every 6 weeks. If you have a dog or two or three, I do recommend this service.

This is a picture of Tiny after the treatment.

The first oil change.

Apr

17

I changed the engine oil of my Accord for the first time. I tried to change it after 4,000 miles, but the dealer told me tha I do not need to change until the oil life indicator said 15% left which came after 7,000 miles.

The oil was 0w20. I have never heard of such a light oil but that is what the specification called for. I selected Mobile 1 full synthetic for my car since I will not be changing for another 7,000 miles.

With the coupon I got from my sales person, I got $20 off and the cost was under $70 for that. Also Mobile 1 came with $20 mail in rebate for next oil change. it was a great deal.

I did my old change at Lynnwood Honda where I purchased my car.
