Ever Lose Your Power Steering?

Have you ever had your power steering go out?  I did once, and I was amazed and how hard it was to turn my wheel without that power steering!

I guess it’s one of those things that we take for granted sometimes, and then when we lose it we realize how lucky we are to have it!

So if by chance you’re having problems with your power steering, or just want to improve the power steering in your own vehicle, check out PowerSteeringPros.com!  They have all the equipment you need including: power steering box, steering rack, and everything else you need.

Quality Skin Care Products

Skin care products really seem to be popular right now.  I know that my wife uses them quite a bit, and sometimes she’ll go from one product to another trying to find a product that works well for her.

I found this site that has some really high quality stuff.  It’s called iDerma.com.  Based on what I’ve read on their About Us page they really do put a lot of time and energy into making sure that they are only offering the best products.

Kinda random I know, but that’s the point of this blog!  So if you are looking for some new, good skin care proudcts, check out iDerma!

Winter is On It’s Cold Way In…

I’m still somewhat amazed, but we had snow on the ground on Sunday.  Snow!  And it’s barely October!

It’s crazy because it seems like I was jsut barely writing on the blog about snow.  In fact, I think I wrote about it a couple of times last winter.  So I guess pretty soon we’ll be getting back into my writing about snow season.

But really, snow isn’t all that bad.  Sure it’s cold and wet, but you can sure do a lot more in snow than you can in the rain!  I mean seriously, can you ski in the rain?  Can you mold rain into a ball and throw it at somebody?  Can you make a man out of rain?  NO!  So yeah, snow is pretty cool.

Ok, if you can’t tell I’m a little brain dead today.  Maybe it’s the cold weather getting to me.  Maybe its the fact that I’m not going to be wearing shorts anymore, and that has me a little depressed.

Does anyone else go through that?  It’s weird, because every fall there comes a point where I feel weird because I don’t wear shorts anymore.  Then there’s a point in the spring where I feel weird putting shorts on because I’ve been wearing pants for so long.  Strange…

Why Would You Supercharge?

So honestly, have you ever asked yourself if you should supercharge your car?  I mean honestly wouldn’t it be kinda fun to have a supercharged car?  When was the last time that you needed to get ahead of another car to get over into the other lane or something, but you just couldn’t do it because you car didn’t have the guts?  I only say this because that has honestly happened to me at least 2 times in the last 2 weeks.

Well, if you are interested getting a supercharger for your car, check out the guys at SuperChargerPros.com. They have an awesome selection of products and great customer service as well. They’ll get you started right!

Amazing Drummer!

I came across this video today and just felt that it was worth sharing. I was in a small time marching band once and I can tell you that none of our guys were this good! Watch this, you’ll be amazed!

I’m Liking Playlist.com!

So I’ve heard about Playlist.com before, but never really messed with it.  So as I’ve been exploring my musical tastes I’ve come back to the fact that I work best lately when listening to instrumental rock.

Since I don’t have a lot of instrumental rock (yet), I decided that the easiest way to listen to this kind of music was either Pandora or Playlist.

Don’t get me wrong, I love Pandora, but one thing I really like about Playlist.com is that you can choose the songs you want to listen to and just create a playlist (hence the name, clever huh?).

So now presenting to the world my Joe Satriani playlist from Playlist.com!  Enjoy!

Omega Constellation - Good Christmas Gift Idea?

I know it’s a little early and all, but sometimes I like to do all of my Christmas shopping in October or early November just so I don’t have to worry about it. Is anyone else this way?

Anyway, I’ve been trying to think of something that I could get for my wife. I’ve tried all sorts of things but I’ve found that I’m not really the best gift-giver. It seems like most of the things that I give her end up disappearing after a few months, just cause they never get worn or used.

Well, what about an Omega constellation by Omega watches? You can see the picture of the one I think she’s like in this post.

These are really nice watches! The only problem for me is that they are a little pricey! But if I had the money, I think this is one that I would consider getting for her.

That’s one of the great things about watch sites like The Watchery: they have a huge selection of all sorts of watches so you’re bound to find something you like, and something within your price range. So if Omega isn’t your thing, you can always check out what else they have and get your gift anyway!

The Copy Machine is Still There

So when I went to work yesterday I did a quick little poll of some of the guys that I work with to see if they were also aware of the fact that garbage men won’t put stuff in the dumpster for you.  It seems like most of them were aware of this, but a few others didn’t seem to understand my point.

Well, this morning when I took the trash out the printer was still there.  Not only that, but the dumpster was all crooked because they had to try to not put the dumpster down on top of it!

I had some interesting comments from the previous post, and one guy even said that this is common most places he’s been, including the Bahamas.  So I want to start a public awareness statement with this blog:

If you don’t put your trash in the dumpster it’s going to stay there!!!

There, maybe I’ll change the world with this…ok, probably not, but it was fun right?

The Paris Buffet

As I’ve already mentioned several times, I was in Las Vegas last weekend.  Now, Vegas is known for a couple of things, but one thing that I think is really worth going down there for is the good food!  I’ve eaten at a couple of restaurants down there and they’ve all been fabulous.

So on Saturday me and the guys I went down there with decided to go and eat at the buffet located in the Paris Casino.  Wow was that some good food!  I had some crab legs, prime rib,  sushi, pastas, and all sorts of other stuff.

It’s funny, because on Thursday before I left my wife and I went with her grandparents to a local buffet called Chuck-a-Rama (I’ve wondered since I was a kid where they came up with that name…).  Talk about a night and day difference!

So when it comes to buffets, do yourself a favor and only eat at the ones in Vegas.  At least, that’s my advice!

The Best Pet I Ever Had

Growing up I had a lot of different pets.  I had hamsters, gerbils (which got stepped on or eaten by the cats), cats, dogs, etc.  But honestly, the best pet that I ever had was a pet tarantula.

Normally when I tell people this they think it’s gross or something, but it was honestly the coolest pet.  I didn’t have to feed it very often.  And when I did feed it we’d have a good time watching it hunt down and catch the crickets we gave it.

The other great thing about a tarantula is that they aren’t moody really.  You’ll know if its ticked because they rear up on their hind legs, and mine never got into that position.

Also, they molt!  I had a rose hair which is a brown spider with reddish longer hairs.  But right after molting it’s black with reddish hair.  It was so sweet looking after it molted!

So anyway, this was the best pet I ever had.  My spider’s name was Lloth (after the Spider Queen from a series of books I was reading at the time).  Too bad when I got married my wife didn’t like it too much….my spider died at my parents’ house
