Pharmaceuticles

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 23rd, 2008

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!!

Broken Bones

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

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.

What is wrong with this screen?

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

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.

Packing the Van

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

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.

XBox and the Mac

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

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.

Read Everything Every Time

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

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.

Who is Losing Weight?

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

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?

Take a Vacation Cruise

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

The wife and I are thinking about taking a cruise that we should have taken a long time ago. I was looking into some of the more exotic cruises and came across some sweet deals on European cruises for about the same price or less than the ones that are closer to our area of the world.

I am gong to have to book something soon. I wanted to surprise her with the tickets but she saw that I was looking at cruises and dug in to the history on the iMac only to find out what I was up to. Good thing I wasn’t surfing anything “bad” that day.

If Ever There Was a Time

Posted in Glass Masters by Green People on the June 12th, 2008

If ever there was a time for a computer memory upgrade this is the time. We are planning our first outing in Washington and we are all so excited to finally get up there and get things started for the Podcast shows. We have been waiting a long time to get out on the road and get some awesome footage for the show but I found out today that the memory in our laptop is a little too little for what we want to do.

The streaming from the camera to the computer to the web at home is fantastic. But when we went out to a local show this weekend with the laptop there was a little issue with the buffering when it hit the laptop. Technology is fantastic if we can get it to work for us isn’t it!!??!!
