If You Like Rockets Watch This

Posted by: admin  /  Category: science

It’s amazing how very talented individuals are especially when it comes to designing and launching home-made rockets. Take a look at this shortened video:

To watch all the rocket action, all 16 minutes more or less, take a trip on over to ddeville. You’ll find lots of details and photographs. It’s action-packed fun :)

Us Versus Them

Posted by: admin  /  Category: humor

Sent to me earlier this week by a good friend, I’m late opening emails. However, as soon as I read this I thought, “Aha! Post time!”

Enjoy!

The Haircut

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut.

After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, ‘I cannot accept money from you , I’m doing community service this week.’ The florist was pleased and left the shop.

When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a ‘thank you’ card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.

Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replied, ‘I cannot accept money from you , I’m doing community service this week.’ The cop was happy and left the shop.

The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a ‘thank you’ card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.

Then a Congressman came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied, ‘I can not accept money from you. I’m doing community service this week.’ The Congressman was very happy and left the shop.

The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.

And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.

BOTH POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON!

Hey, true is true….

Ah Rum What Memories

Zacapa

Strangely enough my 30th birthday was celebrated with the liberal use of rum involved. Fast forward several years later, and while I believe rum goes with just about anything, I also believe one must drink responsibly. Sort of hard to think about in the moment, however, over indulge and the next day is sure to remind you :)

Which brings me to the tale of Zacapa, read on!

Rum and the Town of Zacapa

Zacapa, a town in Guatemala, also celebrated its “birthday” centenary in 1976. However, versus my end result, theirs was nothing short of amazing. A new world’s best tasting rum – actually rums. What they discovered was that a bit west of the town the land was ideally suited to growing sugar cane. What you might not know is that most rums are made from molasses, a compound that results during the sugar-making process. But, the citizens of Zacapa discovered that by using only a concentrated “first press of sugar cane” it produces a superior form and flavor of rum – Zacapa premium rum.

Premium Rum, Zacapa Style

Connoisseurs of rum will thoroughly enjoy the craftsmanship that goes into the production of Zacapa premium rum. In fact, their website alone conveys that truly special quality that only the “House Above the Clouds” provides. This “House” is actually the world’s highest aging facility. Every drop of into every barrel inspires its own uniqueness.

It’s truly hard to convey all the history and culture that Zacapa puts into its premium dark rum, so what I will do is encourage you to join the Zacapa Society by simply registering at http://bit.ly/pvKdC9.

Of course you must be of drinking age to get inside this wonder Zacapa rum world.

Fantasy Fishing Team Chooses Straight Talk

Posted by: admin  /  Category: family, phone apps, technology

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Straight Talk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Sorry, no I’m not going to talk about Fantasy Fishing – only as it pertains to Straight Talk (and featured in the video below). However, I can tell you that recently my husband’s boss hinted at the new interactive phones coming out in September. I won’t mention the brand, but trust me it’s going to be very pricey. Since my husband is self-employed, and yes his business is getting off the ground nicely, that still doesn’t mean we want to be tied each month to any contract. That’s where a service like Straight Talk enters the picture and gives you everything you need.

The No’s of Straight Talk

Isn’t it great when you can write “no” next to something that’s going to save you a ton of money?! Here are the “no’s” to a Straight Talk service:

o No contracts

o No surprise bills, and

o No credit checks.

Plus you have the benefits of outstanding nationwide coverage and you don’t need to worry about your reception or ability to call a friend. Straight Talk incorporates only trusted phone manufacturers like:

o LG

o Motorola

o Kyocera

o Nokia, and

o Samsung.

Straight Talk From a Mom

It’s hard to beat a bargain, and Straight Talk has plenty of them! Their reconditioned phones, starting at just $10, come equipped with all the bells and whistles: camera, mp3 player, mobile web access, and blue-tooth capability. The ideal choice for young users!

And least us older folks feel left out, that’s not the case with Straight Talk. They also have incredible smart phones; touch screen phones, and app-ready phones. You can get phones with features such as voice navigation, a camera, a video recorder, a music player, instant messaging, and Bluetooth® capability.

Here’s an area where it’s definitely cool to say, “mom knows best!” From unlimited to an extremely low monthly cost, you get big service at even larger savings! So when you kid’s ask for that new toy or video game or you fill in the blank, won’t it be great to know that Straight Talk is saving you enough money to actually fulfill their wants and/or needs!
