Ole Coach really didn't want to touch this issue again, but he has too. I really don't care what you all think. Really, most of you Chumps, can't offer a relevant opinion about Paris Hilton anyway. Paris Hilton DESERVES to go to jail because she was driving under the influence and that is a serious offense. I don't care if you feel that her punishment is too harsh.

I don't see any one of you lining up picketing because African Americans and Latinos in the United States get disproportionate jail time. I don't see of any of you in an uproar because people from Low socioeconomic groups go to jail for a disproportionate amount of time, so I don't wanna hear NOTHING about no Paris Hilton.

Being rich comes with a price. You can walk the red carpet, you can party in South Beach, you can "live the vida loca", and you can DO IT BIG, when its time to do it big. So NOW when its time to go to jail, - you gotta DO THAT BIG TOO!!

Paris has a couple of lessons that she needs to learn and I hope that she learns them. Drinking and driving ain't cool and 40 days is a small price to pay for driving under the influence. If she doesn't do jail time Ole Coach thinks that it sends the wrong message.

Business

Most people initially balk at the suggestion that you can earn a full-time income from the internet, especially if the business opportunities from home involve short work-hours and are legal. But in fact, there are a great number of people running their own internet home businesses that are not only financially supporting themselves, but are earning more money than they know what to do with!

This article will attempt to dispel some of the common myths associated with business opportunities from home. Generating significant amounts of cash may require a lot of work, but it is actually quite simple once you get the hang of things. Internet businesses are somewhat easier to develop and grow than offline businesses due to the internet's ease of networking and cheap infrastructure requirements.

There are certainly a large number of scams on the internet seeking to prey on unsuspecting victims. There are also some online business ventures that employ unethical and immoral business practices such as spam e-mail and low-quality useless products. But in fact, the people making the most money are running perfectly legitimate and valuable services.

Cars

Just because a car is cheap doesn't mean the insurance will be. High-cost cars aren't always the most expensive to insure either. If you are concerned about high insurance rates, you probably shouldn't go out a buy a new $33,000 Honda S2000 convertible. And that little inexpensive Volkswagen GTI, listed at $22,000, will cost you as much in insurance as its bigger cousin, the Passat, which costs twice as much.

Looking for cheaper insurance rates? The 2004 Chevrolet Aveo and the 2004 Chevrolet Colorado are among the cheapest 2004 models to insure.

The main factor in the cost of insurance for certain vehicles is not in the price, but its claims history. For example, certain cars are proven to be stolen more often. Some have high repair costs or are in more accidents than other cars. There are many factors, not just the cost of the car, that affect the premiums.

Insurance premiums are based on several factors, including:

The sticker price: a car that costs more to buy, costs more to replace.

Repair costs: Repair costs are skyrocketing at nearly double the overall rate of inflation.

Computers

Owning a notebook computer has never been easier and cheaper. Most of us that buy laptops will only use them for a few basic functions.

Can you really afford a house? If so, how much house can you afford? To determine this answer will take serious financial planning, and the best time to start is at least six months before buying the home.

Although buying a new home may seem like an American Dream or romantic venture, the reality is that the house you can afford depends on your current income and debt obligations.
