Fan of NASCAR, Jeff Gordon. Love great style, beauty, music. Try to live by the Golden Rule. Ready for sanity, common sense, decency to make a comeback!
This is perhaps my favorite color - and Zara is stunning in this!
Must admit this is the first time I’ve actually looked up the dress to consider a purchase…I’ve dreamed of others that Princess Catherine has worn, but never looked it up.
Oh if only I had something special coming up…😍
I do not believe that all currencies will revalue to 1:1.
As much as I would love to see the Dong go to 1:1, I’m just not sure that’s economically viable for their country. (Hoping I’m wrong though!)
Comparing Iraq to Vietnam for a moment: Iraq has lots of natural resources (oil) to at least sustain a rate similar to where it came off the Forex back in the 90’s. And seeing as its neighbor, Kuwait, has a value of about $3.22, and has similar oil reserves, this sells like a logical conclusion.
Vietnam, on the other hand, does not have the depth of resources to sustain a high currency value. Could it come out at 1:1 for a short time? Maybe - but I don’t believe the market would allow that rate to remain for long.
Same with other countries…perhaps they open at 1:1 on the Forex, but if they don’t have the resources to back up that value, Forex traders will downgrade the value to reflect that.
Just like our stock market.
IMO, this 1:1 is the starting point.
I look at the Forex market (where we will see the RV rate) like the stock market. Iraq’s CBI will announce their new rate there, and then the market will determine value.
So even if they announce it at 1 IQD = $1, Forex traders will jump and say we think 1 IQD is really worth $3. So the rate goes up…just like your Apple or Microsoft stock.
Will it devalue? Perhaps, but logic says not in the first few months./years. Iraq has done many things to re-establish itself as a developed sovereign nation. And it has many resources to back up a highly valued currency.
Beyond the actual nature of this absurdity - if one can put that aside for a moment...
Purely from a logical perspective, how is this type of legislation actually worth the time - and money - they spent drafting, in committee discussing, publicizing, and then voting on it???
What problems does this actually solve?
How does this legislation help the majority of their constituents?
Simply stunning that there are so many legislators who refuse to see the reality that surrounds them.
@catswithnohope I am so very sorry for your loss.
Know that there are many of us praying for you.
The world is better having been blessed with Tammy - and she wants you to carry on in her stead.🙏💔
@48_dominates@jeff_gluck Oh are they at the hangar?
Hubby and I have seats at turn 12 I think…wanted to get seats at the hangar but never could!
If you are selling I am interested!
@catcastletails Thank you God for the gift of Tammy. She brought so much joy and comfort to so many of your creatures…we know she is one of your angels now, watching over all of us. Please wrap your arms around all who love her, and give them peace.
@barristerlawusa Oh what wonderful news!!
Now perhaps you can actually rest, relax, and enjoy some recovery time with your sister!
Continued prayers for your recovery!!🙏❤️
@XStrangeHistory Had to come to your page to see what I hoped would not be here…
Truly saddened by this news, and sorry for your loss.
You gave Ruggles years of love and joy…she returned the same to you. Bless you for that!
Be gentle with yourself…sending you prayers for comfort and peace. 💔
Years ago I had a vet tell me to press the outer corners of his mouth to automatically make his mouth open. Pop the pill in as far back as you can then physically close his mouth.
And then the key - blow on his nose. Makes them swallow - natural reaction.
She was able to do it slick as all get out.
I succeeded 2 or 3 times. The. He got wise and held the pill until I let him go - then he spit it out.
But maybe it will work for you??🤞🤞🤞
