So.

Even though the people in the Veggie MeetUp Group are LEMONY and Eccentric. In order to AFFORD this lifestyle - these people often have access to some BIG MUNNY.

Hi Glenn,

That's an interesting insight into vegetarians!

I never thought of it, but you could be right... I think to eat healthily as a vegetarian, you may need to spend more money than you do to eat healthily as a meat-eater. I once had a boss who was vegetarian; he told me he had to eat a lot more vegetarian foods every day to get the same amount of nutrients he got as a meat eater. (Although I'm not a vegetarian, one of my brothers is.)

I'm a strong believer that often something can be a "blessing in disguise". It may seem "bad" at the time, but when you look at the "bigger picture", it may actually be a "blessing".

Here's an interesting article about how, in some ways, a recession can be a "blessing in disguise". They say that during recessions, people tend to smoke less, drink less, lose weight, and study more. In addition, the air tends to be cleaner, and the roads safer...

Apparently, this study also shows that, statistically, for every 1% increase in the unemployment rate, there's a 0.5% drop in the death rate!

I love your auction, especially how you use a "cyber-grabber"...

Your auctions are among the best on eBay!

(Here's more on "grabbers"...)
