Traveling has become more affordable as of late, air fairs are dropping drastically, so this would be a good time to take advantage of the deals that are out there to be had.

Spring Break is Near

Students these days have so many options for celebrating and partying on their up and coming spring break vacations. With spring right around the corner, plans are now being made by most high school and college kids for this annual event. The Internet has made this process so much easier by providing us with sites that allow you to plan the entire trip online. You can now take care of air fair, car rentals, hotel/motel reservations and numerous spectacular party packages to enjoy all over the U.S. and surrounding areas.

Things have certainly changed since my days of spring break festivities, but most things have changed dramatically, due to the availability of the Internet to the general public to use, for just about anything these days.

Went to See Iron Man

I’ve been a big fan of Marvel Comics Super Heroes, and I enjoy going to see the movies based on the characters when they come out.  A friend of mine and I went to see the Iron Man movie last night, at the $2 theater in town.  The movie was awesome!  Iron Man rocketed me away throughout the whole movie.

I don’t know any character that could have played Iron Man any better than Robert Downy Jr.  There was talk that Nicholas Cage might play the lead of the Iron Man movie when I first heard about it but Downy really took the character all the way.  I can’t wait to see the second one that comes out!

1st Party at the Farm, Birthday Style

The celebrating of my nephew’s 1st birthday is in the planning stage, my sister is extremely excited about this event, she tried for so long to have a baby and is loving the whole experience of motherhood. She wants to hold the party here at the farm, in the spring, I believe the date is May 28th, a reallygood time to have an outside party, if the weather doesn’t interfere, the springtime rains do come and go as they please.

A farm barn and animal theme birthday party will do just fine, we have a few ponies here that we can give pony rides on, which is always a hit with the kids. Spring time brings with it new life with several of the farm animals here, there will be baby goats, cows, ducks, geese, pigs and hopefully a few colts or fillies will be gracing us with their company by that time. So we will have our own personal “petting zoo” for them to enjoy.

There hasn’t been a party around here for some time, it will be good to have a large group of friends and family around the place for the day, a lot of work, but worth the time and effort and I’m looking forward to it come spring.

Willie Nelson, He’s the Man

The TV was on the Country Cable channel and I happened to catch the new Willie Nelson music video. It was a hoot! It shows a lot of movie stars hanging out at Willie’s ranch in Texas and they have their annual lawnmower race. Willie has so much property out their, that he constructed a whole western town like a movie set, with a main street, a saloon, and other buildings. He gave the “town” the name of “Luck, TX”The song is “You Don’t Think I’m Funny Any More.” I don’t know what that has to do with lawnmower races, but the video is really funny and I wish I could have been there.

Willie has been a favorite of mine for as long as I can remember, I was never a country music fan but for some reason Willie I could listen to for hours on end.

Looks Like it is The Steelers and The Cardinals

The Ravens just couldn’t seem to keep the Steeler’s down and it looks like it will now be The Cardinals and The Steelers come The Superbowl. I’m not a betting man, but if I had to place a bet it would be on The Steelers, they play a hard game well.

Sister may be Relocating to the UK

Birmingham is a city and metropolitan borough in the West Midlands, England and one of my sisters and her husband have the opportunity to go there because it is known as “the workshop of the world” or the “city of a thousand trades” and her husband’s company is thinking of establishing them elves there in the near future. She and I both hope that she doesn’t end up having to relocate way over there, I mean it would be a great opportunity and all, but we would all miss her and the kids just so much!In the meantime while his company is busy finding the most affordable, but nice hotels in Birmingham, my sister is running frantic wondering what to do with the kids and all the things that entail going away for an adventure like this. She isn’t sure what the weather will be like and is thinking that this will call for a wardrobe over haul, that sounds like fun to me, she is in the position to do something drastic like that. Her hubby makes good money and he is eager to go over to the U.K. and get to know the kind of place that it is and meet the people that he is told are called “Brummies”, a term derived from the city’s nickname of Brum, he is eager to hear how they pronounce that term. He is told that there is a distinctive “Brummie” dialect and accent, both of which differ from those of the adjacent Black Country. The Black Country, sounds interesting enough!

NFL Picks Online

One of the better quality sites that I frequent, Comcast.net has the current NFL football schedule, along with numerous other news worthy articles and links that I find useful, interesting and entertaining. Having the Internet makes the watching of television less necessary in an effort to find out what is going on in the world, outside of your little local area and their local news stations. A good portion of TV these days are being dedicated to news in one way or another. We can’t seem to get enough of it and more people want to be informed instantaneously and from a reliable source.

I find most of my information while online, everywhere you turn there are numerous ways to view news stories from around the world at the click of a few buttons. You get what you want, when you want it, easy as that.

Comcast.net offers a good variety of current stories, their sports section gets most of my attention as of late with the Super Bowl right around the corner and the play off games being as exciting and action packed as they have been this year. They have good videos, the scores and and the latest picks, I have the Steelers picked for this year’s winner, but only time will tell, in the mean time I’ll keep up to date online.

24 Hours, 2 Episode Season Premiere

I have heard so much about the TV series that goes by the name of 24. I can see why it is so popular, I had the pleasure of watching this exciting TV series in the past few weeks and look forward to watching it for the remaining of the season.

With such limited good television being offered, I’m glad to find something that I can sink my teeth into and enjoy, it’s good quality entertainment, makes me think and gives me ideas to ponder on.

Autonet in the U.K.

The automobile companies are really turning out some brilliant promotions in an effort to entice buyers in these troubled economic times. Each week I seem to catch wind of some type of amazing deal that these financially strapped ato companies are announcing, such as the one that I was just reading about regarding Toyota, Peugeot and Vauxhall and Honda promos and that now at an online dealer at Broadspeed.com is offering a buy one, get one free deal with their Kia Magentis models. An amazing offer to say the least.

I found this article while at Autonetinsurance.co.uk looking at insurance opportunities available over in the London, England area, just for grins and giggles. I’m sitting here waiting for the guys to show for my sump pump and leaking basement issue and have been mindlessly surfing the net, seeing what I can get into for a short time while waiting.

It is always interesting to see sites from other countries, and I always find myself learning something out of my efforts of peaking into other countries near and far. Sites from the U.K. are my favorite because I can understand the language, for the most part anyway, and maneuver around with ease such as at this site that offers all types of insurance. Home insurance, motorbike insurance, liability insurance, tool insurance, pet insurance and numerous other types that we are finding ourselves in need of these days in the 21st century.
