Sweetest thing I have ever seen

I came across this on YouTube and just had to share it with all of you.  Apparently these two kids have been best friends since they were babies and it’s a boy and a girl.  He must have felt she is a very special young lady because he made a video and put it on YouTube for her and everyone else to see.

You have to see this video because it takes you from the time they were little until today.  He did a great job of letting his best friend know just how much he loves her.  Here it is.  Please rate it if you can and leave a comment about the video for this creative, special young man!!! I absolutely loved it.

Do you have cable or satellite TV?

My darn cable bill kept going up and up it seemed every couple of months. I had cable for quite some time and decided to check out  DirecTV.  Oh sure I had heard all of the bull that goes with satellite TV but that’s what it was, bull.  I talked with a friend of mine that has had DirecTV for quite some time and they have been totally happy with them.

Well that made me decide to check into some of the DirecTV offers I was hearing about and was pleasantly surprised at just how much I could save with them.  I could get several movie channels free for 3 months and when they say free, they mean free, not like some other deals that end up charging you for the free part anyway.

One thing is for sure, the DirecTV specials made it hard not to switch form cable so they’re coming tomorrow and installing my new satellite tomorrow with all the bells and whistles just like I had with the cable company but I’ll save a lot and get more with DirecTV over my cable.

I love this!!!

I don’t know if this is true or not but it sounds like something the Marines would do!!!

Two California Highway Patrol Officers were conducting speeding enforcement on I-15, just north of the Marine Corps Air Station at Miramar. One of the officers was using a hand held radar device to check speeding vehicles approaching the crest of a hill. The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar gun began reading 300 miles per hour. The officer attempted to reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and then turned off. Just then a deafening roar over the treetops revealed that the radar had in fact locked on to a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was engaged in a low flying exercise near the location.

Back at the CHP Headquarters the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the USMC Base Commander. The reply came back in true USMC style:

Thank you for your letter. We can now complete the file on this incident. You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of, and subsequently locked on to your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to it, which is why it shut down.
Furthermore, an Air-to-Ground missile aboard the fully armed aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment location.

Fortunately, the Marine Pilot flying the Hornet recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system alert status and was able to override the automated defense system before the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position. The pilot also suggests you cover your mouths when cussing at them, since the video systems on these jets are very high tech. Sergeant Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist to check his left rear molar. It appears the filling is loose. Also, the snap is broken on his holster.

Thank you for your concern.

Do you need Virus Removal?

One things for sure, you sure don’t want to get caught without virus protection.  That’s just asking for nothing but trouble with as any viruses as there are and as many as keep surfacing almost daily.  A virus can totally destroy your hard drive and everything you have on it.  In fact, if you get a bad enough virus, it would be cheaper to just buy another computer than to try and have that one fixed.  Some of them are that bad.  You sure won’t catch me without it, that’s for sure.

Virus Removal is a lot easier when you already have a virus protection program on your computer.  CyberDefender looks threats and decides the risk levels of suspicious files or processes that may contain harmful viruses. This threat assessment process is a lot faster than traditional methods and allows for faster, precise detection and treatment of malicious viruses, phishing attempts, dangerous spam,  spyware, and various forms of anything else that might be of harm to your computer or the security of it.  You couldn’t ask for more than that, now could you?  So if you’re not happy with your virus protection or time to renew, why not consider changing to CyberDefender?

My cousin had Lasik sugery

I have a cousin that lives in Texas.  She has worn glasses since I can remember and finally got the nerve up to check into having Lasik surgery.  Someone told her that if she was going to have that done, then she should check out Jack Holladay because he’s the best around and just might be considered one of the best period.  Well since it was her vision she was thinking about having something done on, she decided she better check into the doctor to make sure she didn’t get a second rate doctor.

It seems that this is not one of those that claims to be all that.  This doctor is one of the best.  In fact, he’s had over 50 peer reviewed articles published so that says a lot right there.  Not only that but he’s also the past president of an international association of Lasik doctors.  That’s not national but international.  He’s also certified by nonprofit patient advocacy which is wonderful too.  Oh and get this, Jack Holladay teaches other doctors how to perform Lasik so with all of that in mind, he not only talks the talk but also walks the walk as they say.  If I decide to have that done, I’ll be going there too.

Daddy used to take me hunting

I used to love to go hunting with my Daddy.  Heck yeah I went hunting and even got a few myself but that was a long time ago.  I still catch myself looking at sites like eotech where they have some of the best deals on scopes you can find.

If you want to know anything about the products, it’s all there.  That way you can choose the best site for you and not just go by what some salesman tells you.  Not to mention they have great customer service and free shipping on orders over $29.95.  What more could you want?  Here’s the scope I would get for my Daddy.

In need of boxes?

If you move, you need boxes.  If you’re packing away stuff, you need boxes.  But what if you’re a huge company that ships a lot of stuff, you really need boxes then.  Well San Diego packaging is the place you need to go then.  Not only do they make cardboard boxes, but they do so much more than that.  They also provide a wide variety of wooden containers, vapor barrier bags, steel fabrication, corrugated boxes and moving supplies, corrosion inhibitors, special applications, fixtures & material handling and also on-site packaging & shipping.

Their wooden containers come in small to large containers and are one of the most cost efficient ways to go because they’re completely reusable.  There’s less waste than with cardboard boxes.  They’ll even fabricate metal racks for you to store your stuff on in the boxes.  The vapor barrier bags are like those that computers or electronic parts come in.  You can’t let the elements get to them or they’re destroyed so if you need that added protection, you can get that here too.

But if a corrugated box is what you need for moving, they carry them too along with everything else you need to go along with them like tape, labels or whatever.  So if you’re in need of boxes of any type, you might want to check these guys out at http://valleybox.com.

Well darn, this isn’t available here

Here I was just looking around the Internet trying to find the best deal on Mobile Broadband and came across a great site.  I decided to check out what they had to offer and found out they actually give away a FREE HP Laptop- 15.4″ screen. Intel® Core 2 Duo Processor. 1GB RAM. 120GB hard drive with their 550 Broadband Package.

I was thrilled to find Three Deals until I realized it was a mobile company in England.  Well darn it, here I thought I had found the best mobile broadband company of all and apparently I did but it won’t do me any good.  I emailed my cousin in England and told her to check out their site.  At least one of us can benefit from their great deals.

Do you know what a lead vendor is?

If you’re in business then you know what leads are one of the most important things to your business growth.  Without viable leads, your business won’t grow as fast.  Let’s face it, that’s what everyone is in business for, growth which means the difference between a profitable year and a year that isn’t.  Without profits, businesses close and lots of jobs are lost.  That affects a lot of families and hurts the economy even more than it’s hurting now.

Well direct response marketing just might be the answer to your companies need for viable leads.  They are a lead vendor.  ICBM (Instant Call Back Manager) is a new technology they use.  A company buying a lead can have that lead go through their system first and within 7 seconds of your lead vendors sending the lead, the customer will be called, pre-qualified and transferred to your sales agent. That means they have already been verified as a possible customer for your business.

Your company will be able get to the customer on average 2-24 hours before anyone else if you are buying non exclusive leads or the customer is online shopping around.  So you just might want to seriously think about checking these guys out.  They produce real leads, unlike some other companies that claim to produce ‘hot’ leads.
