Whirled Glass

There is a real lack in available jobs now a days, wouldn’t you agree? I remember a few months ago all the IT jobs that were available at places like Zappos an now I hear that friends are losing their jobs with no replacements. Wow! Is the economy really that bad that we can’t even keep the online businesses hiring or even keeping their best employees? Maybe there are underlying circumstances, but that’s just scary to see a company like that sending their bread and butter employees packing.

I and many of us at WG really hope that with the new President and his Economic Stimulus there will be some turn around in the economy. I would appreciate a raise and the ability to buy more. We earn, We buy, We feed our economy!

I was reading through the comments on here yesterday and I came across a rather negative comment. At first I was a little shocked that something I would write about on this blog would be construed as anything but positive. But then again when you are reviewing companies and products you have to expect some negative with all of the positive. I was reading a review about Leptovox and the writer was heaping through the same issues.

Even though you don’t like a product or service that is written about on a blog or forum somewhere I say always be honest and comment according to your personal experience. But be honest. Don’t just bash a company because you had one late delivery or a product showed up later than you expected. Think before you type and make your comment count. Remember, no one likes a whiner.

There are so many pharmaceutical companies that sometimes you can have a time choosing which ones or one to deal with. If this country would really take after the ways of of our father country like Italy and France where health care is free, we may have an easier time choosing where to go for health care and meds. I found out that the country that I come from originally offers free health care and free medication. I often wonder that if my ancestors would have known what this country was going to turn into many years after they moved here and dropped us off if they would have come here still. I know that if my future would not have been written in this country I may have been in a much different and probably simpler situation. Maybe I could have had the land that we in our family so desire every day. There is a real need to change things in our lives rirght now and it’s almost like an undying itch to change to something more old country. The old ways of life are not looking so bad right now!!

I wanted to talk to you about a serious problem that is plaguing our elderly. It’s called falling off horses. Thats right. Falling off horses breaks more bones than any other rodeo event that I know of and has broken the spirits of more elderly women in my family that I care to mention. But for the sake of saddles and the sale of saddle seat belts I want to tell you that so far my Memere and my Mom have both fallen from horses and broken bones. My Memere left the scene of a horse accident with a broken arm and fractured shoulder. A few years later, 20 something, my Mom was thrown from her horse and suffered a fractured her tibia. You know how hard it is to fracture that bone?

If you act now you can save a poor elderly person from falling off a horse.

Computer Guy: I will tell you what is wrong .. it needs a new video card installed?

ME: Are you sure thats what is wrong with this computer?

Computer Guy: Yes.

ME: Well how much is it going to cost to replace?

Computer Guy: I should be able to put in a new one for around $600.

ME: Are you serious? Why so much?

Computer Guy: Well this is an older computer and it needs an upgrade to the newest equipment.

ME: Are you replacing ONLY the video card?

Computer Guy: Yes, thats right.

ME: Get away from my computer.

That is the conversation I had with a fellow at one of the local shops that fixes computers. I can do this job myself for the cost of gas to the local electronics store and the price of a video card. I happen to know for a fact that I can get the video card online for about 1/6th of what that fool was going to charge me. So yeah .. I took my computer and left that place never to return.

This week I am setting up the margins in the van to make sure that we are going to have enough room for all of the equipment and for the 6 people that are riding along. This is like the time when I was in band camp ….. I got all of the tactical gear in one spot in the van and I seem to have no more room for anything else. We have to rethink the packing situation for the trip. It is no wonder we always lose things. We take entirely too much stuff with us. When we are only going for a week we will pack enough for a month. But when we are going to take one of those long trips for like a month we only pack enough for a week then we are left stranded with no more clean undies. Go figure.

I was reading that there is a way to get files to transfer to your xbox 360 from your iMac. WHAT???? I was like WOW when I heard this. so I went out and finally got the X Box that everyone was begging me to get for the house just to see if it was possible. I’m a Apple Junkie when it comes to things like that. I want to see and show off everything that my Mac can do that your PC can not. It’s just fun to rub it in that my iMac is WAY better than your PC. You have to understand that there is a certain standing when it comes to having the cooler toys. The one with the coolest toys wins.

I found my old paperwork from a disability that I got in the military and I found out that I might be eligible for medicare advantage or at least medicare. The way that it reads on there is I “may” be eligible “if” certain things apply. To me all the stipulation are met by me anyway but I am going to have to contact someone to find out if this is a real option for me since I can’t work that much anymore. This disability has left me in a pretty bad way for the last few years and this is just the good news I need to hear right now. I’m glad that I read everything that was on the packet this time. I would have never known otherwise.

We are! We are all losing weight like its going out of style. I personally have shed almost 30 pounds so far and I feel great but I don’t really notice the size change. If you have ever wanted to try out something that is going to help you lose weight then check out Slimquick and some of the reviews about the product.

When you see yourself getting skinnier you will really get a confidence boost. I don’t see it per say as much as everyone else, but I get a ton of compliments. Thats can never be a bad thing can it?
