I have been remiss about posting new entries, because I’ve been busy creating a new website. It’s called Annie Korzen.com and is a me me me site describing all the various things I do: write, act, lecture, and teach public speaking. Please check it out.

The average cost of creating a website is about $2,000. I, of course, did it for much less, with a little help from a friend who got low-cost guidance from a cousin who’s a pro. Then I wondered if one could get a site designed for free. I looked on Craigslist.com and sure enough, someone was offering that service. He was a graphics student, and wanted something for his portfolio.

I KIDNEY YOU NOT

Speaking of Craig’s List, last night I gave a Bargain Junkie presentation, and asked the audience if they had scored any fabulous freebies online. One woman told of a friend who had been waiting for a kidney transplant for 6 years, and finally found one FOR FREE ON CRAIG’S LIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some good Samaritan was making an offer she couldn’t refuse. She is now alive and well with a brand new kidney. The donor is now looking for someone who needs a partial liver transplant. It strikes me as a bizarre form of altruism, but why look a gift organ in the mouth?
