Thursday, September 27th, 2007I never would have thunk it, but apparently traditional Christmas lights use a lot of electricity. They’re so small and teeny you don’t really think about it, but their collective impact adds up to a whole giant lot of wattage. Enter the concept of a greener Christmas: LED holiday lights.
Before we even get further into the energy […]
USB Slippers
Thursday, September 27th, 2007What in the world would anyone ever do with USB Slippers????? There’s no product description, so I can only guess at their purpose. Heating your feet, maybe? Can’t think of anything else. So OK, you get a pair of heated slippers that are powered by a USB connection. How exactly are you supposed to walk […]
Bigger Boobs In The UK
Wednesday, September 26th, 2007In looking at the Make Yourself Amazing site I was immediately struck by two things. One, the name is catchy, fun, and perfectly appropriate. It’s not a stuffy doctor site like so many you’ll run into. Two, it’s nice to see that the whole breast enlargement craze isn’t confined to the US, […]
Spice Hunter
Wednesday, September 26th, 2007Once I got moving on my whole “I know how to cook” thing, I went off to explore the internet for the most exotic and best ingredients I could find.

OK, some of the games are girlie as you would expect from Lifetime TV, like Golden Girls Trivia. But others are quite fun, just the right amount of challenging, and, […]
Exotic and Affordable
Monday, September 24th, 2007For many years now, it seems like Costa Rica has been the hot spot for vacationing. Many, if not most, of my friends have been down there for what they describe as amazing vacations. It’s one of those places I dream about going to when one day I’ll be able to fly (I […]
eSnipe
Monday, September 24th, 2007It’s probably not in my best interest to promote the amazing services of eSnipe, but what the hell, I’m sure it’s no big secret. I’ve been using it since some time in 2004, and maybe back then it was lesser known, but now, probably not. eSnipe is a service that, for a small fee, […]
Trump You! No! Trump U!
Thursday, September 20th, 2007Did you have any idea that Donald Trump runs a sort of university that teaches all sorts of courses relating to real estate investing, foreclosure investing, and other real estate financial things that are the basis of the Trump fortune? That’s actually pretty darn cool, if I do say so myself. Who wouldn’t want […]
Magnetic Poetry
Thursday, September 20th, 2007Magnetic Poetry isn’t a new thing. It’s an old thing. So old that when we were moving in August, I found a metal frame I’d saved with my last magnetic poem. My cherished set of words had been lost — a combo of the original version and a city version that […]
