  • Up All Night With Blue Bawls

    I recently read on ThinkGeek.com about the Bawls Guarna drinks and thought I would like to try it. But I did not want to pay the high cost of shipping something I never even tasted via the post office. Then I ran into the drink at my local convenience store and picked one up. High…

  • Large Files Giving You A Headache?

    Ever need to send a large file to someone only to find out it is too big to go through email? I have. Most email services not only cap the size of the file but they also restrict or automatically remove certain file types too. If you do not have access to ftp or a…

  • Big Dogs Need Big Dog Feeders

    The company that makes the Big Dog Feeder had briefly stopped manufacturing it due to a problem with the plant. They are now back and ready to roll. If you have a big dog you should really take a look at these. They are available at ShopOurPets.com or DogToys.com for around $65.00, but isn’t your…

  • Devious License Plates

    This past weekend a car zipped past me with the license plate number of DVS-6660. By the look of the plate and the fact that it ended in zero, I think it was a random plate straight from the DMV and not a personalized plate. Why add that trailing zero if it was personalized? Then…

  • More Bad Food Karma

    My bad luck with food continues. It even extends to my cats now! Yesterday I came home with my cat’s favorite treat, Whole Life Salmon. But when I went to give him some the treats were not the same quality as the last time I bought a bag. They were thin and had the fish…

  • Avoid the Black Friday Blues

    Working in retail all my life I have always been caught up in the frenzy of Black Friday, the biggest shopping day of the year. Not many people don’t know what Black Friday is, but if you have been living in a cave all your life it is the day after Thanksgiving and the official…

  • Pizza Zone Not in the Zone

    I don’t know what it is with me and restaurants, but I am always having problems with them. Maybe I am just too picky, but I don’t think that’s the case. Don’t get me wrong I am picky. Food has to be good and what I ordered. But above all I am a stickler for…

  • New Mouse in the House

    I just picked up the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 and I rather like it. Although I cannot seem to figure out exactly what makes it a notebook mouse over any other mouse. Maybe it is a little smaller than the other ones, which I like. Seems as if most of the Microsoft Mice…
