My Favorite Blank

The Chipmunks are popular once again and its all because of their movie playing on the big screen right now. I was a huge fan as a kid, but the Chipmunks just seemed to disappear from the spotlight. They are back and people are going to watch them. Record crowds have been turning out to see Alvin, Simon and Theodore and to hear Dave screaming “Alllllllllllll-vin!”.

TRAILER TO ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS

Looks pretty good!

I haven’t had the chance to go and see the movie yet. I hear the movie is pretty simple with the Chipmunks just finding Dave and starting to sing. So it leaves the door wide open to see future Chipmunk Movies and we might see the Chipmunks Go To Paris or the Chipmunks Doing the Hula in Hawaii. Just a lot of different ways the movie can take off from here and we probably haven’t seen the last of Alvin and the Chipmunks.

Is your cat more like a child in your household? I know a lot of people that will treat their pets better than humans. It seems cats are the ones that really take an effect on people. Cat owners will go out of their way to make sure their cat has it all. They will buy them play toys, different types of cat treats, and even cat furniture for their fury felines. I have never bonded strong to a cat before, but I know they can make you fall in love with them. They seem to have an endless supply of energy for running up and down trees in the yard, chasing their tails, or just pawing at something you’re moving in front of their big eyes. Cats are a lot of fun to play with and can make a great pet; I just have my doubts sometimes when their owners start treating them like people. I’m sure some people’s cats act better than some people we know, but there still needs to be a line drawn in the sand when it comes to humans and cats.

We have now reached the final 4 of football if you want to put it that way. 4 teams remain in the 2007 season that will be playing for the 2008 Super Bowl. Two surprise teams didn’t make the final 4 that most people would have thought they would have. The Indianapolis Colts and the Dallas Cowboys wouldn’t have been a bad prediction, if you were picking them for the 2008 Super Bowl. However, Tony Romo and Peyton Manning failed to get the job done this past weekend and now the New York Giants and San Diego Chargers will fill their place in the AFC and NFC Championship Games. The AFC Championship Game will be the San Diego Chargers traveling east to face the New England Patriots. The NFC Championship Game will have the New York Giants traveling to the cold Wisconsin Air to face Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers. Maybe some of that snow will melt before they play football again in Green Bay.

So now that we know the match ups, whose gonna win? Who do you like to win the NFC and AFC Championship Games? What two teams will be in the Super Bowl? What team will win the 2008 Super Bowl? I will be one NFL fan that will be glued to the couch until a champion is crowned out in Arizona.

Its pretty interesting to see how some of these downline builders work. You sign up for a downline builder and then you get to add your code on the different safelist, traffic exchanges, paid to read emails, and other things like that. It just depends which downline builder you join on what different programs you can build up your downlines in. You will probably find several programs that your not signed up for yet and its a good idea to sign up for as many of the programs as you can. So no matter what program your referral joins, they will be getting under you.

Building up your downlines in a number of different programs is the best way to advertise or make money online. Get enough referrals under you and you don’t have to concentrate on that one programs as much anymore. You let your referrals do all the work for you; while your out trying to get more referrals or finding new programs to join. I think joining a downline builder is a great way to get those extra referrals you need.

A great place for all the ladies to find some hot new threads is at Heavenly Couture. They have a great selection for the younger girls too and all the high school girls will want to check out the junior clothing. One of my friend’s teenage daughters loves to go shopping and I bet she would love this website if she ever saw it. I’m sure my friend would be upset with me if I showed it to her, because she already has to have a new outfit every week. I might just have to pick her out something myself and surprise her for her birthday that is in a couple of months. I think she would like those Distressed Vintage Skinny Blue Jeans, those look like the clothes she normally wears anyway. You can find them in the denim section at Heavenly Couture and they are $17.95. You might find a few more things that are that price too, because nothing is over $17.95! It’s really a great deal and a lot of these clothes you’re saving up to 85% off the retail price. There is just a good selection of contemporary clothing for all the women and girls out there today. Just glancing through some of the sweaters, pants, shorts, hoodies or skirts they have; is what I see a lot of the high school girls or the girls in college wearing these days. I really think all the young girls will like their clothes better than the moms will. If you have any young ladies you need to buy some new clothes for and you want to make sure they’re “hip” enough for them; just go check the ones out at Heavenly Couture.

I have arrived at number 3 on my Garth Brooks countdown and I’m trying to name his top 5 songs of all time. This is very hard since Garth probably has 10 to 12 really good songs, but I think I have a good canidate for what the number 3 best song of all time is from Garth Brooks.

3rd Best Song by Garth Brooks

Do you agree that’s the 3rd best song ever by Garth Brooks? Is this song in the top 5 or top 10 of all time by Garth Brooks?

I can remember when this song came out and everybody was a Rodeo Cowboy then. Garth shed some light on the rodeo industry and this was a great song for all the guys that do the rodeo. It took me awhile to learn the lyrics of this song and there are a few tricky ones in there, but finally my cousin at high school gave me the written lyrics to this song that she had written her self. So I finally knew everything that Garth Brooks was saying about the rodeo. Even the part when he’s talking about the white in their knuckles and he’ll win the next go around.

Rodeo by Garth Brooks is a great song and it has the right tempo to get any good ol’ party started on a Friday or Saturday Night. I think Garth had a few more songs that he sangs that can get a party started off on the right foot. You will have to stick around and see if one of those songs or something else; makes the final two spots I have left in my Garth Broooks countdown of the 5 best songs ever!

For those of you that travel a lot, probably get tired of having to clean-up all the time in the motels and hotels you stay in. Showering and washing your hair can take up a lot of your time and its probably time you would prefer to save out on the road. You can now take along a great travel shampoo that you can use; instead of doing your regular routine. This shampoo by Salon Grafix is perfect for those that travel a lot and they even have different kinds to match up with your hair color. It’s a dry shampoo that will keep your hair looking clean and beautiful between shampoos.

I can remember a few times I have been in the shower and realize that we were out of shampoo and would have to run through the house all wet and grab some dish detergent or detergent used for clothes and have to wash my hair with that. It would be great to keep this shampoo by Salon Grafix in stock, so I could use it in those emergencies. There are really a lot of different reasons why it would be good to have a dry shampoo on hand and I think it would be a good idea to try this shampoo and see how it does keep my hair looking in between shampoos.

I have got a kite that I am going to fly with my twin nephews, as soon as we get one of those good windy days. They just turn 3 years old in December and they are now at that age; where they want to get everything or be a part of everything. I think they will get a kick out of seeing a kite go up in the sky. They will probably get a bigger kick when they see me get that kite hung in a tree. I’m sure that is what will happen, because my luck with kites haven’t been great. I have either ran out of string and the kite flies off in the sky or I finally the only tree in a big open field. I will be happy if I get just put the darn thing together.

I’m not looking for the hurricane gusting winds to fly my kite in. Just a good 15 to 20 mph breeze to get the kite started with. Usually once you get the kite about 20 feet in the air, your good to go. About 20 to 30 feet from the ground seems to always be in that jet stream type wind, where its always gusting. The weather is on the warm side right now, so I hope within the next week or so, we get a pretty good day for winds.

For all the guys out there, I thought I would give you the heads up about Valentines Day. We are just a little over a month away and now is the time to start saving for that gift or looking for something to buy. I guess if you’re going to get your sweetheart a box of candy or some flowers; you might not have to worry about saving any money. For those guys that spend a little extra and go for the diamond pendants or the gift certificates from her favorite store, you might want to start putting a little money back now. If anybody has a girlfriend or wife that has a birthday in January, that is probably the best case scenario. You can get Christmas, birthday and Valentines Day all taken care of in a short amount of time and you don’t have to worry about forgetting it. You might want to think about a wedding date during this time too, so you can cover your anniversaries too; if you’re not married yet!

How I miss my days of playing Texas Hold’em with the boys. Me and a friend use to go out and play poker at a restaurant. It was pretty fun to do and really didn’t cost a lot either. You would pay $10 to get in and they would let you buy more poker chips for $5 up until 9 PM. Once that time came, they would make an announcement abou the last buy-ins. Most of us would usually buy more chips if we needed them or not. Just so we could play Texas Hold’em in the wee hours of the morning. Most of these poker tournaments would last past midnight.

Now it is illegal to gamble in the state of Georgia, like it is for most states in the U.S.. So the way they would do it, is to give away food vouchers for your entry fees. You would be playing for a bar tab basically and it was ok to pay with vouchers like this and would be considered illegal gambling if cash was paid to the winners. If I remember correctly I think they just paid the top 2 players and the final prize to the winner would be based on the number of people that played in the poker tournaments. Sometimes we would start these tournaments with only about 5 or 6 people playing and sometimes we would have as many as 25 playing. I won a few of these tournaments, but really only one big one. There was 24 players in the one big tournament I won. This might not seem that big to you, but for an amateur poker player like myself, it was quite an accomplishment to beat 23 other players out of a poker game. I couldn’t miss that night and my hands were just really good and I had no part in the tournament win. There was no bluffing or magical bets I made to pull off the win, I just kept getting good hands over and over. There was always someone that would stick with me and that was key to me winning it all. If everyone would have been more patient and waited until my luck ran out, they could have beat me on my inexperience. I think that is the biggest key to winning in poker and especially for a Texas Hold’em poker tournament, is to just be patient. Wait for those hands to find you, but try your best to always see the flop!

Did you make any goals this year for getting in shape? Maybe some people out there got exercise equipment for Christmas; with the intentions of living a healthier life in 2008? Well I wasn’t one of those people. Maybe I should be one of those people, because I do weigh about 180 pounds and I’m 5 feet 10 inches tall. I have a little extra weight that goes over my belt buckle. I just don’t have the desire to get out there and work off the pounds in a vigorous exercise program. I would probably be better off with a job that had more physical activity; than just typing on a keyboard all day long.

I would like to hear about your exercise programs or goals that you might have set for your self in 2008. Please be sure to reply and let me know what’s going on with you and maybe share any past exercising attempts that went wrong or just didn’t go at all. I have started a few dozen different exercise programs over the last decade or so, but I just always lose the desire to keep going. I do think it’s good for all of us to start one from time to time, even if we don’t go through with it or meet any of our goals. All the exercise you get, no matter how small it might be, can go a long ways in helping us live longer lives.

Being a single guy today with no kids, never been married and doesn’t have a girlfriend is pretty hard to find. It isn’t for me, because I just happen to be that guy. Now I have always thought that I would get married and have kids and do all the normal things a family man does. It just hasn’t worked out for me yet and now as I am in my mid 30’s; I’m not so sure I will ever get married or have kids.

I have noticed that the women just get better looking all the time. I can’t wait to find one that actually likes me! I have even noticed that the pregnant women look very attractive. I’m not sure if it’s the way the new maternity clothes look or if the women are just getting more attractive as I get older. Maybe I am just getting more desperate to find that one girl that’s for me? I know I have been too picky over the years and that’s one big reason I’m still single right now. I have a hard time just going out on a date with a girl if I don’t think she is marriage material. Might sound strange, but now every time I see a girl giving me a stare or a smile, my first thought is “could I marry this girl”? Another problem I might have, is actually giving my eyes the time to stare at all the attractive moms-to-be and not looking for the women that might actually be single! Oh well, I will continue my path down single life for now, but there just has to be someone for me in this over-crowded world we live in.

We finished the year off strong in Georgia with our rainfall defecit. The last few days of 2007 gave us enough rain to avoid the worst year for rainfall ever in the state of Georgia. So we had a lot of hope coming into the 2008 year, but our weather pattern once again turned dry on us. It looks like we are going to be in some serious trouble when we get into the August and September months of late/end of summer. We need rain now in the winter to help fill up some of the lakes, rivers, creeks and other tributaries that are so important for us to gain water from.

We are experiencing a rainy night in Georgia now and this is some relief from our dry situation. The rain has been falling for most of the evening and its even been hard at times. So we are getting a pretty good rain soaker right now and this comes on top of a few showers we had 2 nights ago. So we have the soil good and moist right now, so now is the time we need for a big snow storm or rain maker to rear its head in Georgia and we could really get some run off right now. I haven’t looked at the 5 day forecast and seen if anymore rain was on the horizon, but if we can get another big shower before the weekend ends; we can say this week as been a very productive one and about a dozen more weeks like this one and the good people of Georgia might have enough water to last them through next winter!

It looks like another NFL head coach will have the tag of quitter placed on his name too. Bobby Petrino was the first quitter for the NFL this season and once he got to Atlanta and seen he didn’t have the services of Michael Vick; is what prompted him to quit 13 games into the season. Joe Gibbs finished out the season, but he lost the best player on his team too; when Sean Taylor was tragically shot in his Miami home. Just another example of coaches that don’t want to coach unless they have a certain superstar on their team. When the rough gets going the weak will surely quit and that is what Joe Gibbs and Bobby Petrino done this season.

Since Joe Gibbs has more success under his coaching leadership, than Bobby Petrino has, he won’t face such swift criticism. I have to call them like I see them and Joe Gibbs is just a plain quitter. I’m sure there are some more guys on that Washington Redskins team that wants to quit too, but I haven’t heard their names yet. Joe Gibbs being the coach of the Washington Redskins should have learned that there is other people facing this tradgedy as well and that gives him no right to quit. He’s only thinking of his self and he is clearly not a team player. The Washington Redskins need to just let Joe Gibbs go permanently and not let him stay on as an advisor. The man quit his job in the face of adversity and the dictionary says that is the definition of a quitter. You can’t have a coach like that on your team that is going to back down in the face of adversity, but that is exactly what Joe Gibbs done today. Joe Gibbs is a quitter and he will always be remembered like that by me.

So how are the New Year’s Resolutions coming? I didn’t make any this year, so I am still good with mine. I actually just wanted to make this year better than last year was. So that is my New Year’s Resolution for 2008. I know a lot of people will be trying to stop smoking, eating less, exercising more, losing weight, gaining weight and the other typical things like that. I’m just curious to see if anyone has fell off the wagon a week later? A week is pretty good if you are still in the clear of your New Year’s Resolution. Many people will fold in the first 3 days, so if you made it for 1 week, then be sure to pat your self on the back. The worse part is now over and if you did make it through the first week, be sure to hang in there and stick with your New Year’s Resolutions. It’s going to be down hill from here. Maybe you were looking for a sign to stay on the right track and if you’re reading this post on my blog; then maybe this is your sign?

Good luck to all those still trying to make a go of it. Be sure to let me know what your New Year’s Resolution is and just what is the overall goal you hope to accomplish from it?
