The mystery Water Cooler

Do you ever have one of those moments when something weird happens to you that you can't figure out. Tonight I was sitting here relaxing with the computer, the house was nice and quiet, the kids were all off to bed and out of no where the water cooler starts to chug water. Now no one has been near the water cooler for hours so now why all of a sudden does water start chugging down to fill the cooler? It spooked me out for a few minutes for sure so now I'm sitting here on edge.

Golden Dreams

What kind of investment opportunities do you have in your portfolio. It is important to stay up to date with your investment mix and to be very aware of what you are looking out of your investments. There are different things to consider depending on where you are in your life. There really never is a bad time to buy gold coins, it has proven itself to be a very safe investment choice that provides stable returns with minimal risk. Gold is currently trading at some of it's highest values in recent memory but don't let that discourage you as with the dollar continuing to drop normally the value of commodities like gold bullion will continue to rise.

All I want for Christmas

This is what I heard the other day from my son, common Dad all I want for Christmas is a PS3 with call of duty and a wireless controllers and and and....oh yeah by now I stopped listening. I tried to explain to him that at this point a $500 plus ps3 might be pushing it and the rest of the list might have to hold off. It's scary the expectations kids have for Christmas these days, of course they get this from their friends whom get spoiled by their parents.

Slushy Madness

The kids recently discovered the slushy machine at the store near our home, with it being a little warmer lately they love the cool treat. The store here has 8 flavors of slushy so it will take a while to try all the flavors but the kids do like to mix the flavors to try combinations of Rainbow that they create. I tried one the other night and the combination of brain freeze and sugar rush.

My Christmas Wish

Well with Christmas fast approaching I have been working and shopping very hard to get everything on the Christmas wish lists of my family. I started a bit earlier than normal this year and it is wonderful to be almost done before the calendar even flips over to December. I decided it was time to start hinting around to my wife for my Christmas wish list. I am really hoping she gets the hint and gets me a new cell phone, I am so tired of my ancient cell phone, I can barly send a text on it let alone browse the Internet. I have been checking out the LG Optimus, it provides smooth Internet browsing the capability of sync up to my outlook from work. It also offers access to Android Market and over 80,000 applications. It also has a built in camera so I can catch those special moments with the kids when  and where they might happen. It's incredible how much the technology behind cell phones has advanced in only the last few years. Can you imagine where LG will go next with Cell Phone technology. I can imagine a day in the very near future where we literaly use our cell phone for everything.

Let it Snow

The first snow of the year hit here yesterday and boy did it ever hit us good, although there wasn't a lot of snow down, only 15cm it snowed constantly all day. It started late in the evening while we were at my Christmas party. When we thought it was over I went out and cleaned the driveway and just as I was finishing it started again, in only seconds it was a full blown blizzard. I wonder if it will be a rough winter or not this year.

Family Guy

I recently discovered "The Family Guy", it is quite the comical masterpiece. If you can dumb yourself down a little bit and appreciate it for what it is. It's great because although it has been on for years, I get to catch up with 4 episodes every night. The one thing I haven't really figured out about this show but does anyone other than Brian understand Stewie?

I made a decision that it was time to make my life easier for a change, to make that happen I decided it was time to get rid of my tired old cell phone and start shopping around for something better that could help me organize my liffe better. One of the phones I researched was the LG Optimus 7, it will allow users to capture photo's and video and play back on the hd resolution screen. You can watch movies and browse the Internet wherever you are. There are so many options to think about when you are shopping for a new cell phone, you want one that provides you a good plan that is best suited to your requirements. The Optimus 7 provides you with lot's of digital storage with 16MB of memory that can store 100's of mp3, video and picture files that can be viewed at your disposal. The Optimus 7 can also be used to play your music files and to send and receive text messages to keep you up to date and in contact with all your friends. If you find yourself in the market for a new cell phone you should take some time to see if the Optimus 7 would match all your needs.
