My Favorite Blank

It seems computers change by the minute and if you get one today, it will be out-of-date by tomorrow. The technology continues to boom in the computer world and those towers hold so much information today, that sit on our computer desks. Today’s computers have more memory, more speed and something like the video card holds so much information compared to the ones of yesterday. I think all the cables and places to plug in cables has increased dramatically too. Everyone needs some place to plug in their IPod and all of the other things that computers make better. Music is really simple to download from your computer to your IPod and this is just one of the things that make today’s computers so great. I just wonder what tomorrow does hold for the computers and just how much faster can they make them. The dual processor is a big help for surfing around on the internet and that technology has saved a lot of online users many hours each day. I hope the technology can continue to grow for tomorrow’s computers, but let’s keep the prices the same for today’s computers!

Recently on the Lifetime Network they showed the true story of The Capture of the Green River Killer. It portrays one of the most famous serial killers in American History. The man that police would spend 20 years looking for turned out to be Gary Ridgway. According to the movie on Lifetime, police had questioned him many years earlier, but didn’t find sufficient evidence to charge him with anything. As the years passed by and no suspects emerged as a good lead, the police would go back through their list of suspects. It seemed one dedicated detective Dave Reichert had his eye on Gary Ridgway, but could never come up with enough evidence to prosecute him of any crimes.

Gary Ridgway was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. He had been married 2 times, but still craved prostitutes while still being married. He would go find these women on the streets and in most cases would choke them to death. He left a long trail of bodies and even today it’s not clear on just how many young women might have had their life cut short by the hands of Gary Ridgway. Since most of the women were prostitutes, the families were not aware of their daughters being gone and this probably help Ridgway through the years, since a lot of families weren’t demanding justices. The biggest pressure back in those days for the King County Sheriff’s Department in Washington was from the media. They were the ones that held the police accountable for no arrests in all the bodies that were being found in the early to mid 1980’s.

Ted Bundy was a very famous serial killer from the Northwestern part of the Untied States and his reign of terror had apparently ended by the time Gary Ridgway started leaving his trail of destruction. Two detectives working on the Green River Killer case even flew down to Florida, where Ted Bundy was waiting for the electric chair and some credit has been given to Bundy for advice and tips he left with detectives that day. In the movie The Capture of the Green River Killer, they have a great scene that leads up to to where Ted Bundy enters the case. One detective is talking to another one and lets him know that someone might have some good tips on this case and the other detective questions him and asks why this might just be another false lead. The detective replies “because he is currently serving a life sentence in Florida and he is a serial killer too”. It’s not like Gary Ridgway needed any help with his serial killings gaining all the notariety like it has over the years, but when you add in the Ted Bundy factor, it does become one of the most interesting stories of all time, when your talking about all the famous American serial killers of all time.

The final list that is out now has Gary Ridgway with 44 murdered victims and some of those have still not been found. His first victim is said to be Wendy Lee Coffield and she was only 16 years old. She was murdered on July 8th of 1982 and her body was discovered on July 15, 1982. There is 3 of the women that are age 31 or older, but the majority of women were in their teens and twenties and some as young as 15 years old.

If you like true stories and long movies, I highly recommend watching The Capture of the Green River Killer. It has been shown on the Lifetime Network a few times already and if you look for it there, it should be coming on again in the near future. The movie is 4 hours long and it’s a great way to tell the story, as you will get to see the story unfolding from one of the victim’s eyes and it’s like what she would be thinking if she did have a voice from beyond the grave.

It seems more and more people are not going to the drug stores these days and prefer to get their medicines with online prescriptions. It is easier and more convenient when you can get your prescriptions filled online and don’t have to drive to the drug store, wait in any lines or have to wait on the pharmacist to get your medicine ready for you. We all need more time in our lives and getting your medicine from online drug stores like eDrugStore.md is just one of the ways to save more time. Also there is a great section “Ask a Physician” on eDrugStore.md and you can get answers from real doctors on any medical questions or concerns you might have; so more than just one benefit to having an online pharmacy that you can do from your computer. You might just learn that shopping for your prescriptions online can save you more money on brand name drugs, than if you actually went to your local pharmacy to have them filled. So don’t think you have to pay more to get prescriptions filled over the internet. So give it a try the next time you need a prescription filled and see if you can save time and perhaps money too!

I’m sure there is thousands and thousands of kids and probably a few adults too, that is looking forward to the new movie that is coming out May 9th. I think Speed Racer will be the number 1 movie this week at the box office. Just seeing some of the previews to this movie, you can tell that they didn’t take any shortcuts to making this movie. Some of the scenes in the movie look really intense and all the fancy graphics is candy for the eyes.

Speed Racer promises to pack a punch, as movie watchers will get to see this mach 5 speed car light up the big screen. This vehicle has no limits and it will jump over trees and even go under water. I’m sure the folks that have to put up with rush hour traffic in the mornings and evenings on their way to and from work, would love to have a car that could do all of this! When Speed Racer is not racing, he still has an exciting life of battling villains with his kid brother Spritle, girlfriend Trixie and pet monkey Chim-Chim.

This movie does look like it will be filled with action from start to end. The main story line appears to center around the cross-country rally known as The Crucible. In the past this race took the life of Speed Racer’s brother Rex Racer. So with all the competition that is going on for Speed in this movie, he also has to battle the memories of his late brother. I think all kids of all ages will absolutely love this movie and all parents will need to make an effort to get their kids to the theaters this weekend to see the movie. I’m sure all the kids will be talking about the movie Speed Racer at school on Monday morning, so don’t let them give away any secrets to the movie and spoil it for your children. This movie will not be like the typical movie for kids and adults will enjoy this one as much as the younger folks. It appears to be a movie like Shrek that will entertain all ages in the crowd.

The movie is 2 hours and 15 minutes long. It’s rated PG and will start nation wide in theaters on May 9th, 2008. The cast includes: Emile Hirsch as Speed Racer, Susan Surandon as Mom Racer, John Goodman as Pops Racer, Christina Ricci as Trixie and Matthew Fox as Racer X. If you get a chance to take the kids out this weekend to see the movie, please be sure to come back here and leave your thoughts on the movie and tell me is this a “must see” movie or “wait for VCR” movie.

It’s getting close to that one time of the year we pay tribute to all the deserving moms out there. They deserve special treatment for 365 days of the year; because the services they provide is all year long. No matter how long I shop for, I could never find a mothers day gift that would equal all the great things my mom does for me. I need to make sure I get her something on Mothers Day, to let her know I am thinking about her. Something as simple as flowers will make her day a little more special on Sunday. It’s really simple to send flowers to your mom on Mothers Day and you can find someone like 1800Flowers.com and they will make sure your flowers arrive on that certain day and they also provide a great service 365 days a year; just like mom! Just make sure you don’t forget your mama on this day and for all the mothers or expected mothers out there, I would like to send my best wishes and thanks to you and I hope you have a great Mothers Day this year!
