A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words, Right?

You've seen them on Ebay and other retailers selling Barcelona chairs for under $600. Some are even selling the chair with ottoman set at this price. We are all for getting a good deal. However, buyer beware...many are using the bait and switch tactic to get you to purchase. The pictures you see are not the same products you will be receiving. When shopping around, ask to see if they offer more detail pictures of their product and check for any discrepancies between the product pictures.

Uma Ubud: A retreat within Bali's heart

Opened in 2004, Uma Ubud became COMO Hotels & Resorts second inland retreat dedicated to Uma’s understated philosophy of quiet comfort in inspiring, culture-rich locations. Its arrival coincided with Uma Paro, which opened in the wildly beautiful Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan.Enjoy the adventure. At Uma Ubud, you won't fail to fall in love. Simply listen to the life - animals, birds and people - that exudes from Ubud's enchanted forests and mist-wrapped paddies. This is one of my favorite boutique hotels in Bali.

My Way...need I say more?


And now, the end is near,
And so I face the final curtain.
My friends, I'll say it clear;
I'll state my case of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's full -
I've travelled each and every highway.
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Regrets? I've had a few,
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course -
Each careful step along the byway,
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times,
I'm sure you knew,
When I bit off more than I could chew,
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried,
I've had my fill - my share of losing.
But now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that,
And may I say, not in a shy way -
Oh no. Oh no, not me.
I did it my way.

For what is a man? What has he got?
If not himself - Then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.

Yes, it was my way.

My favorite movie of all times...

Breakfast at Tiffany's is a 1961 Academy Award-winning film starring AudreyHepburn and George Peppard. It was directed by Blake Edwards. The portrayal of Holly Golightly as the naive, eccentric socialite is generally considered to be Audrey Hepburn's most memorable and identifiable role. She herself regarded it as one of her most challenging roles to play, as she was an introvert who had to play an extrovert. Hepburn's singing of "Moon River" helped garner an Oscar for Best Song for composer Henry Mancini.
