Thanks for the guest post by Jonathan Curtis

We ended up getting good clear internet deals and they are going to be installing it into our new vacation home next week. We have always wanted a beach house and have just gotten to the point where we are going to be able to afford one. My husband and I both love the beach. I wish that we had been able to afford one sooner, but now is a great time because our kids are becoming teenagers and already don’t want to spend their extra time with Mom and Dad. Anything that we can do to get them to “hang” with us is worth it. We have already gotten them to agree to spend the summer at the condo. I am going to stay for the majority of the summer and my husband is going to come every weekend. The kids are going to be allowed to invite a friend or two. The good thing is that it is only about two hours from our house, so it is a very quick and easy drive there. I just can’t wait!

A good buddy of mine took on the task of writing a book and he called me up the other evening and asked if he could come over, that he had something to give me. He showed up at my door with a six pack and an autographed copy of his newly published book entitled “Deer Hunting with Jesus” – Dispatches from America’s class war - ”A raging, hilarious, and profane love song to the great American redneck.” by my good friend himself – Joe Bageant.

We spent a pleasant evening drinking his beer, talking about his book and rehashing the good old days until 1:30 that morning. It was reall good seeing my old friend and am so  tickled that he took the time to come over to hand deliver his book that I can’t wait to start reading.

America’s Funniest Home Video’s

If I remember correctly America’s Funniest Home Video’s was the original funny video’s program to hit the air many years ago. They have had so many take offs of this brilliantly entertaining TV show that I so enjoy watching when I find it while channel surfing some evenings, AFHV just remains top dog as far as I’m concerned in this ever growing funny clips and video market.

I don’t always agree with their decisions on which ones are the funniest and the audience’s voting always seems to through me for a loop with their voting choices, but who gives a happy crap who wins or not, it’s all funny and it’s all good, as they say!

Ampeg Portaflex Review

Free Shipping is a big deal when ordering products from catalogues off and online. This can add up to some real savings and who isn’t trying to save a buck here and there these days. After reading the ampeg portaflex review that I found online and doing a bit of research I’ve decided to go ahead and order it for my brother who really wanted a new bass amp head for Christmas but due to be laying off last year he didn’t get it.

His birthday is in February and I only have a short amount of time to come up with something and this sounds like a good deal to me. He is a good guy and if he didn’t have his music I don’t know what he would do at this point.

Dress Up Games

My 9 year old niece that I have spoken about in the past, has sent me a reply to my last email to her, and she is full of news about all of the things that she is doing and planning on doing this summer while school is out. She is scheduled to attend a cheer leading camp, in the middle of July and then to go to a sleep away camp in the first week of August.

She has a few friends that she has been going to the local pool with and her folks are planning a beach get-a-way long weekend this up and coming 4th of July holiday. So she seems to be keeping busy, it is a drag for some kids that have nothing to do all summer, that is when trouble can start brewing. Busy hands are happy hands, as my mother always says, and there is a lot of truth to that.

One thing that my niece is very good at is the computer, her folks had her up and running on her own PC at the age of two years old and she knows what she is doing when it comes to email, the Internet, several different programs, and she has tons of software full of games and educational ones also that she enjoys.

In her email she was telling me of one of her favorite web-sites that she and her girlfriends just discovered a few weeks ago which is all about GirlSense Fashion Dress Up Games at a site called GirlSense.com. She tells me that it allows her and her friends to go into different boutiques and purchase virtual fashion items of fashion designers and celebrities like MTV’s The Hills, Savy and Mandy, Mudd and numerous others, that I have to tell you I have no idea who most of these are, but she seems thrilled with them.

I have to say that web-sites like these are really a good thing for these girls, it teaches them so many things that will help them later on in life. And I like that there is more and more things coming out for little girls, most video games really are not geared towards them and there has been a push for more girl oriented games to be available to them and it looks like it is working to some degree.
