Firefox can export your bookmarks as a web page when you exit the browser, and you can set a specific location for that, so in theory you could have a shortcut to a reasonably up-to-date version of the file. I don't know whether it can be pinned to the Windows 8 start screen, but a shortcut on the traditional desktop interface should allow this regular swapping of the target file (or you could simply save it to the desktop directly).
To set this up, you need to do a little work in the about:config preferences editor. Note: this is based on cor-el's post here, and I haven't tried it myself yet.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste book and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML preference to switch it from false to true.
When Firefox exits, your bookmarks should be exported to a web page named bookmarks.html in your currently active Firefox settings folder (profile folder). To change the location and/or file name:
(4) Select and copy the following preference name:
browser.bookmarks.file
Next, right-click any existing preference and choose New > String
Paste browser.bookmarks.file as the name and then Firefox will prompt you for the location. You can put anything temporarily, then come back and double-click to edit and paste in the desired full location and file name such as:
C:\Users\username\Desktop\mybookmarks.html
(Your username obviously will be different than mine...)

Hi WhyMe-, I do know that you can pin your favorite url to the Favorites page back when Metro was being developed, however this was not continued.
If you can still turn it on in Beta, but it may be easier to pin Firefox bookmarks to the start screen:

Please post back with your results, it can help other users!
I may not have been clear My QUESTION should be : is there a way to create a SHORTCUT to F.F. Bookmarks which I can open to expose FireFox Bookmark links that will OPEN the DEFAULT browser and display the BOOKMARK link page ???

Thank you this info really helps my cause.
and to help the person who wants to have "bookmarks" saved to more than one location; (from - cor-el's post here, - above) just make a shortcut to any other location and clicking there will open "bookmarks" from there.
