The Scare of the Blue Moon and the Risk You Are Not Prepared to Face
The night was supposed to be a romantic moonlit evening which one could easily connect with the popular song “Blue Moon,” sang by Elvis Presley or by Andy Williams or by a host of other famous singing boys of old.
It was a cloudy evening, a bit not conducive for those who wanted a clear view of the so-called Blue Moon, or the second full moon of the month. Some had a night out, fired up by romantic desires, to explore whatever possibilities the night had to offer.
Many had the shock of their lives.

The Apocalyptic Worry and Its Relevance to Investors
I was preparing to write something related to franchising for this post when a headline item at Yahoo News caught my attention on Saturday May 21, 2011. The item looked so timely and so compelling that I decided to postpone the post about franchising to a future date to give way to this piece.
The news item was entitled “Apocalypse Believers Await End, Skeptics Carry On” and it was about the supposed “end-of-the-world” on the very same day May 21, 2011. The prediction was made by an 89-year old civil engineer named Harold Camping.
