This Works

Been playing most of the day with this way to get free Amazon Gift Cards.   Didn't really think anything would work, but found something that did.  Just playing with it, I've made $7 worth of gift cards.  Sign up below:

Let me know what you think.

Wow. Impressive!

So Skyrim is coming out with a new DLC.  You're able to build house and adopt kids.  Isn't that the most stupid thing you ever heard?

Now don't get me wrong, I loved playing Skyrim on my XBOX 360.  I played the game and got all of the achievements.  The game was created by Bethesda, which also created one of my favorite games, Fallout 3.  The Skyrim universe is beautiful, and the game is easy to play.  I also liked the fact that it was up to the player on how the story progresses.  The type of game is called a sand box game, no scripted like a lot of games are.

Bethesda promised that the DLC's would be of more substance with Skyrim. I guess this is not the case.

GoDaddy and Word Press

I maintain 2 websites, one for my wife (gandsproserv.com) and for our homeowner's association www.missionmanorhoa.com. Both are hosted by GoDaddy.  I've been trying to make the administration as painless as possible for both, but especially for the homeowner association.

The association's site needs to be more interactive, where the officers can post at any time, as well as homeowners posting their own comments about the neighborhood.  I tried to use Joomla, but found it unwieldy.  I really liked Joomla's help section, which stated to find someone that had already successfully set up a site, and ask them for help.

I noticed today another free addon called World Press.  I have played with it an hour and a half and have all of the features set up for the site.  Something that it took me several weeks to set up with Joomla, and it was never set up perfectly.  It looks like I can truly offer an interactive site. 

My wife's bookkeeping site (gandsproserv.com) was much easier to maintain, and I used css templates to create the website.

Thought about this blog today. Or at least I thought how cool it would be to have one. Then realized that I did. Then realized I'm not really that cool.

Yeah that.

October 2009 was my last post? Holy crap!


And yes my cat, now 12 still likes me for some reason....

My Cat


This is my cat, Jasmine. She turns 10 next month. And yes, this is the cat that likes me. Although I have no idea why. I guess its because I feed her.

She's a pretty cool cat. Its the only cat that I have known that I knew both her parents. She has her mom's body and her dad's coloring.

My sister in law had both cats. When her female went into heat, she locked her up in her apartment. She also had a non neutered male cat in the apartment.

She was surprised when her female got pregnant!

Only two of the kittens survived, my wife (who is allergic to cats) said I could have one of them. And I picked Jasmine.

Presidential Happenings

November 26th was the last time I updated this blog? Wow. Some dedication there huh?

So our new President was sworn in. I didn't vote for him, but I will support him in the next four years. Basically I think that we should give him a chance to succeed. He is going to have a tough road to go. The economy is bad, and personally I think it will get worse before it gets better. A simple band aid will not work. There is no simple solution to the problem - IE "just do this and this, and we'll be fine."

Yawn

I guess I have to be proud of my self. I actually wrote something else on my blog. :)

A long time ago I created a website that no one ever went to. I guess this is the same thing. For awhile I thought the best way to hide something was to put it on your website, plain as day.
