Zurich's Fall From Grace


Some people like rankings, so for those of you into this kind of thing, the 2009 Mercer report on the cities with the highest quality of life in the world just came out. So let's forget, for a moment, what the heck happened to Interlaken (it isn't even in the top 50, imagine that) and let's talk about what the heck happened to Zurich? It has fallen from its #1 ranking last year to #2 (following Vienna) this year.

Was it the weather? The street sweeper who forgot a cigarette butt one morning? The one delayed train? To try to make sense of the senseless, read more on Zurich's Fall from Grace, by visiting the Raclette Rant, over on glimpse.org. Or, for another expat's take on the disaster, visit Swisstory Blog.

Hey! Thanks for the shout out. I hope your May is going well. When I get back from the States we should catch up. ;)

Zurich trumps Vienna. In my heart, at least.

Does this sound silly and unthinkable? On a few focuses, it is. Since in what manner can a bank confirm your check and your distinguishing proof on the off chance that you are getting the money for the check through the Internet? Moreover, how might you get the money if your check has been confirmed and handled? usacheckcashingstore.com/corona

This isn't a paper against HostGator. I cherish HostGator. I cherish my better half and children too, however some of the time we as a whole do things that baffle each other. What's more, in the website backup event that we gain from those mistake, or if nothing else start to see how to maintain a strategic distance from them, whenever we will realize what's in store, or in any event have the capacity to stay away from whenever.
