Online Shopping

Online shopping is here to stay. I know that I’m not the only one that hates leaving the house to go shopping all over town trying to find what you want at the best price. I heard the numbers on the news the other evening of the online shoppers who purchased the majority of their Christmas holiday shopping using the Internet at home and at work. I don’t remember the exact numbers but they were very high, I’m wasn’t surprised at the numbers I can tell you that. It only makes sense to use the Internet to your advantage to find the best deals possible without ever having to leave the comfort of home and/or work.

Now with Christmas done and over with we are finding ourselves with a lot of gift cards to use on products or services. I just ordered a pair of hush puppies shoes along with a nice pair of ralph lauren sneakers online using one r more of the Visa gift cards that I received for Christmas.

With Valentine’s day coming up next month I have had my eye on a nice timex ironman watch that I would like to give to a certain lady friend on February 14th. I’ve done my research and found the perfect one at the right price. If I order it now it should arrive in plenty of time for the occasion. If something doesn’t work out with the order I still have plenty of time to find something else in time.

I look for free shipping offers, if you can get out of paying for the shipping you can get some mighty fine deals.

So Long Mr. Monk

Tonight I will be watching the series finale Part One of Monk. I have enjoyed watching this show since day one and I’m sad to see it go. I haven’t missed very many through out the years so watching the reruns really don’t interest me after seeing it more than twice. USA is losing a good quality show, sad to say!

Rod Stewart

Monday, October 19th, 2009 | Associates, entertainment, management, technology | No Comments

Not too long ago I saw Rod Stewart on a talk show. He was complaining that he was sick and tired of singing the same old songs of his. The hits like Maggie Mae and Tonight’s The Night. I remember thinking that I couldn’t blame him one bit, this guy has been around for a very long time and has been singing non stop since the 70’s.

So it was cool to see him on Jay Leno’s new 10:00 television show tonight. He sang a song called “It’s The Same Old Song” which I thought was totally appropriate considering his state of mind as of late about singing songs!

A New & Improved IBM as400 Needed at Work

We have been experiencing some computer hassles with our work stations. This has been going on for some time and word is that they are looking into getting a new IBM as400 system before the end of the year. We’ve been hearing about budget cut backs and gripes that a new system wasn’t put into the budget for several years so it will be a miracle to witness this event.

Having a well working computer system is a must in any business. In a world that has tried so hard to become a paperless world we are relying more and more on our computers each and every day. Even if they get a good refurbished one from a company such as the ones offered at Perfdata.com would make every one’s day a better and much brighter one for us all.

At least we have a good tech support team that has a sense of humor and the patience of the saints above. If it were not for them we would all be up a creek without a paddle. Each and every one of them has been with the company a good long while and they know what to expect and are usually on top of things. They earn their living under great amounts of stress with a good amount of people turning to them for much needed assistance and are usually in a hurry!
