The weather is warming up quickly, the chilly windy days are almost completely over around here (for those of you gawking at me, I live in the mountains, so it stays colder longer here). I’ve already cranked up the air conditioner a few days in a row now. Last year in May I took a…
Spend Your Energy Wisely and Be Happy
I’ve written before on how I’ve developed a different attitude towards wealth and money. I used to believe you had to be rich and have everything easy to have a happy life. I know that’s stupid and childish, and somewhat selfish, but I’ve always envied people who had more than me. In the last couple…
Verify Facts Before Forwarding Chain Mail
This morning I received an e-mail telling me that North Carolina had enacted a law set to go into effect July 1st, 2008 regarding cell phone usage while driving. I thought it sounded like a good law, and I was all ready to post a blog entry about this issue, when I decided to do…
Where My Tax Money Went: Sony Playstation 3
So it’s been about two months since I got my tax refund – and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed using my new Playstation 3 that I purchased with that tax refund. Aside from the fun downloadable video game demos and 3rd party games that I got from the Playstation Store online, it’s also an awesome blu-ray movie…
That Time We Don’t Talk About
Several years ago, when I was in school, my buddy and I decided it’d be a good idea to disappear for a couple of days and go have some fun on a road trip. This buddy, she likes to go on random “adventures” and get lost and not tell any one where she’s going, and…

If you’re low on motivational fuel or good vibes or whatever and just want a laugh, hopefully this lolcat will give you a quick pickmeup.…
It’s Time to Get Naked
If you’re not already Naked, you totally should be – if you’re getting ready to shower, that is to say. I’m talking about Naked Naturals shampoo and conditioner. I got a sample in the mail the other day of Naked Naturals Citrus & Keratin Fortifying Shampoo and Fortifying Conditioner. First of all, you should know…
You Ain’t Got No Alibi
Why on earth did God decide to put two starkly contrasting things together like cheerleaders and the cheers that they cheer? Cheerleaders are usually pretty hot, and the cheers they do are usually pretty annoying. It’s one of the stranger pardoxes in the universe. Company 81, a clothing company, has given access to their clothing…
Get Plugged In to HD Music Videos
This morning I received an e-mail telling me that new HD music video / social networking site PluggedIn launched in beta today. PluggedIn is apparently a venture by actor / recording artist Will Smith in association with Sony, EMI, and other big name record labels. What immediately one me over when I loaded up the…
Get Your Daily Thrills at Thrillist
First of all, I’m obligated to let everyone know that I’m a BzzAgent, part of a word-of-mouth program where consumers try out products, services, and websites and then tell their friends about them. I’m not getting any reimbursement for this post, I’m just telling you about something I liked. Thrillist is a site where you…
