Nap Time...

When the mention of the word hammocks comes out from either myself or my wife the first memory that pops out is the time I tried to lay in my brother's new rope hammock and instead of enjoying the moment I found myself fighting it for about 20 minutes before I gave up. Well my wife decided to be the conquerer of the day and try to lay in it. I told her good luck trying but she was able to lay down in a matter of seconds and not fall out. The hammock my brother owns is not one of the hatteras hammocks but it isn't too bad. Now the hammock that would really make me happy is one from the Pawley's Hammock Collection. If you want to find yourself staring at either very tall and beautiful trees or the bright blue sky then you should by all means visit the site and read for yourself what can truly relax you on one of those quiet Sunday afternoons. The one thing that will be different about my hammock is the fact that I will have sturdy stands and not the usual two tree method.

Saturday Photo Hunt - Rare

Okay for today's theme I have two entries. These two items belong to my wife Lisa, she's had these two for many years. I wanted to take a shot of them but the shelf that they were on did not do them justice. So I took them to a location that would bring out the beauty as well as the unique and rare appearance that they have. Let me know what you think of them. Oh and as always have a wonderful weekend.
:)







Come and join in on the fun that happens every Saturday.

Chasing the Dream...

I once had a dream of having my own rental shop. Yeah that's right a rental shop, like a movie rental shop. Back when I was 21 I had a huge collection of both video games as well as movies. In order for this to take place I would of had to empty my basement out completely and plan a layout that would be both inviting as well as comfortable. Well this dream fell short because not many people wanted to rent video tapes, they were more interested in the DVD aspect of renting and since I didn't have any at the time I couldn't really open up a shop and not offer what people would want first hand. That's what I called a home based business opportunity that did not take place. Today I have a slightly different take on the rental world, I am deciding on a new method of renting movies and games. It hit me a few years ago when I went to the bank and then to the movie store. I wondered why hasn't anyone done it yet, why hasn't anyone combined the two together? No not an ATM at the store, but why not have the same vacuum tubes that are used at the banks to exchange information used instead for the rental process. It's just a thought I've had for quite a while now.

What Confusion?

I want to talk about it but then I don't because of it's silly contents. Okay here goes - How the heck can people think that poodles and sheep look alike?!? In order for something like this to happen you must of been in hiding for like forever to actually think that the two were close in resemblance. I heard this on a morning show and I could not stop laughing. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a "dog" expert but I do know when the species are different - you know claws/nails and hooves.

Richard Milhous Nixon...

WASHINGTON (CNN)
-- In October 1925, a 12 year-old boy in a small California town wrote in a school assignment that he "would like to study law and enter politics for an occupation so that I might be of some good to the people." The boy: Richard Milhous Nixon, some 43 years before being elected the nation's 37th president.

Over 150 documents, articles and mementos are located in the new National Archives exhibit which is located in downtown Washington. Also an exhibit called "School House to White House: The Education of Presidents," opened up on Friday and runs through January 2008, just in time for voters to begin the long dragging process of electing the next president. This would be a good time to mention to my wife about this museum so that we can make a pit stop while we tour the east coast.

Rehabilitation...

Addiction
Addiction is defined as an overuse of any substance that changes the natural chemical balance of the brain.

The definition you just read is something most addicts don't want to hear. It's within those same words that many find closure and how some find the light on how to solve their problem. Those words can also frighten someone away from friends who are trying to help. I will have to admit that within my own family addiction played a large role that almost broke the us. In those days going to a drug rehab center was embarrassing and in my neighborhood everyone knew everyone as well as their affairs. Now a days their great programs and centers. One I want to mention because after I read their contents I can honestly say that what they offer is both effective and very helpful, that company is 1-800-NODRUGS.COM. If you have a loved one that does not want too much exposure or other family members knowing then this would be the perfect site to recommend.

What's the darn rush for...

Watching the video for this story didn't look all that impressive until they had a camera on an over-pass watching the train come from a distance. It took the train to go under the over-pass a whole 1.1 seconds. Watch the video if you get a chance and see for yourself what I'm talking about

Coasting along...
