Little People

Wednesday, August 25th, 2010 | Health, entertainment, life, marketing, technology | No Comments

I have noticed that there seems to be a few shows on the TV featuring little people. I think that it is pretty cool that they are getting some good television coverage and people can look into the lives of little people. Reality is such an interesting concept. Who would have thought?

Online Trading

My brother-in-law, Mike, is getting pretty good with this Online Trading that he started dabbling in last year right around election time. His brother-in-law is a well established Online Broker and has been teaching him some tricks of the Stock Trading business and getting him up to speed.

The economy is forcing a lot of us to look into options that we normally wouldn’t even consider. Mike doesn’t seem to be the type of guy that would be into IRA Accounts and Mobile Trading, much less doing any good at it, but life is full of surprises. I’m glad for him because he does have a large family that needs tending to and they (much like everyone else) are pinching pennies and just trying to keep the roof over their heads, food on the table and soon there will be the need for heat with winter right around the corner.

Girl Games, The Time Has Come

I remember when my niece was around 4 years old and started playing video games. It became apparent that there was a limited selection of girl games that would keep the female population happily paying good money to play games targeted just for them. We heard talk that these businesses were becoming aware of the situation and took action. They still have a ways to go but they have come a long way.

I stumbled across this site the other evening, a site chock full of girl games, easygirlgames.com thought it was pretty cool so I shot the link to her in hopes that she will find some entertainment out of some of the large variety of girl games that they have to offer. She spends a good amount of time online, like most of us do, she may all ready know of the site but what the heck, I try.

 

 

Teen Abuse Issues

My youngest brother has two step sons that are making his life challenging, to say the least. He had no idea what he was getting himself into when he married he latest wife, I feel for him. Right now they are busy looking for a teen rehab center to place the eldest of the two into. Right when school is getting ready to start all Hell has broken out and instead of going shopping for back to school supplies and clothes they are looking into teen rehab info.

The teen addiction statistics are staggering. Even with all the drug awareness programs that have been implemented into the school systems, like D.A.R.E. for example, there just isn’t enough out there to help prevent drug and alcohol abuse with our kids. So the need for good teen alcohol rehab and a good teen drug rehab centers is going to keep rising each year. The Internet will be a great resource for my brother and his wife during these times and wish them the best of luck.

Events Made Easier

I must have been 16 or 17, because I was old enough to drive, but I certainly didn’t know squat about buying concert tickets. I had been to numerous concerts in the past all over the area, but had never been responsible for the purchasing of the tickets and had no clue to all of the decisions and issues involved in trying to get a good seat within a reasonably priced ticket.  

I think it was Alice Cooper that was coming to town and I drove down to the mall where there used to be a Hecht’s Store that sold event tickets in the basement, what a mess that was. And what a bunch miserable human beings all crammed into this hot, smelly, over crowded and unventilated basement (smoking was still permitted in this shopping center) area that reminded me of a race track and this area being where the bookies set up, take the bets and pay off the winners. It wasn’t a pleasant experience but I did get some decent seats and Alice Cooper was a riot!

Now a days you can go right online and purchase all types of event tickets. sports, concert, theatre, dancing, etc….They offer tickets for all kinds of budgets and they Fed Ex every ticket. Radio City Music Hall Tickets, HONDA CENTER TICKETS, FENWAY PARK TICKETS, DODGER STADIUM TICKETS, AIR CANADA CENTRE TICKETS or even Alpine Valley Tickets with seating charts available for most events so you can see where you are going to sit when you make your purchase.
