On This Day In Canadian History....
1917 - Halifax, N.S. is devastated as a French munitions freighter, the Mont Blanc, carrying 2,300 tons of picric acid, 200 tons of TNT, 35 tons of high octane gasoline, and 10 tons of gun cotton, collides with the Belgium steamship Imo, at 8:45am. The Mont Blanc crew abandon ship, after failing to alert the harbour of the danger as it's cargo catches fire. The Mont Blanc explodes at 9:05 am in a blinding white flash. The blast levels downtown Halifax, kills 2,000, injures over 8,000, and leaves 10,000 homeless, causing $50 million damage. The shock wave shatters windows up to 100km away, and the sound can be heard in Charlottetown, the greatest man-made explosion before the atomic bomb.

Dearly Beloved:

Hi! :D And Good morning!
To All you amazing, cool ViP Blog members!:)
As always-
Thanks for the codes to all you faithful contributors!

I've been away (again), but of course,
I still love you all very much! :)
(just as much as before if not more)

Back recently from a field trip, and it feels good to be back into the ol' routine of things and read your (sometimes amusing and funny) comments once again! (Mr. Red, you're a blast;)

I kinda missed reading the blogs, when I was away (No time).
I have a Superb Freebie Holiday Bonus Offer for you guys today:
Make $50 bucks ca$h from ING DIRECT.
But, hurry:
You only have til Dec 31st 2011
How?
It's easy:
Either
Call 1-800-464-3473(ING-DIRECT)
Lines Available 24/7.
OR
Go online to www.ingdirect.ca

Open an account (anyone, either a THRiVE chequing, any savings account, an RSP account, or a TFSA with a $100 or more initial deposit before Dec 31st 2011.

N.B.
You must give them this Orange Key
number to qualify: 19297188S1.

Also,
You must have another primary bank (somewhere else in Canada) so you can send them your cheque from yourself to yourself in the amount of $100.
Please note:
They can supply you with pre-addressed and pre-stamped envelops if you ask!

If you do, you will get $50 ca$h deposited right into your account.

Personally, I've been with ING for 6 years (since 2005)!!! And, really, I absolutely looooove them. I only have positive things to say about them! Actually, I'm always raving about them! :)

The interest paid out for savings accounts is almost 3x that of the other "Big Banks" (1.5% and up compared to 0.5% average).
They pay interest for the THRiVE chequing account. Most other banks don't pay interest for chequing accounts! It's true! And the THRiVE chequing is a NO-FEE chequing account!!! The BEST part!
That's the part I love: NO FEES!
Interest for the THRiVE is 0.25 %
No miminum limits (except for the initial $100 if you want the $50 ca$h holiday promotion)
You get a free initial cheque book at no cost to you.
Unlimited debit and interact withdrawals.
Bonus Feature: Free "Whoops" overdraft protection for up to -$250 without any NSF fees!!!
Nope, they won't charge you
$25-$40 NSF fees, if you bounce a cheque for up to (a maximum of) -$250 (in the red).
IF... you pay them back within 30 days (ie: bring back your balance into the positive again within 30 days)
Can you believe that!?
This is extremely rare.
And-
Since ING Direct is basically a virtual bank, they are connected to a large network and you can use the ATMs of any of the following banks:

Communication Technologies
Credit Union
CS Alterna
HSBC
National Bank of Canada
(15 ABM locations just in Ottawa)
All this:
Without any fees.
Forget fees.
Go with FREE!!!
I have since 2005!!!
And I'm lovin' it! :D

Cheers! :)
