Eco

Hey, I'm as green as the next guy but does anyone use these goofy light bulbs? I have one in a table lamp and the light it gives off is CRAP! I don't like them at all and I don't care how long they last. They will not be staying in my house. When I need light, I need light! I'm just sayin!

Happy Tuesday!

Age Appropriate?

What age do you think is appropriate for a child to have a cell phone?

I realize it's a convenience thing for parents but really, at what age does responsibility begin?

I know plenty of young children that are always getting in trouble with their phones and the parents have to monitor their every call. So what's the point if you have to monitor everything? Are you being nosey, controlling or did you just give a child a device that they are not ready for? Sounds like poor parenting to me if you have to do all of that? What's your take on the subject?

HAVE A SUPER MONDAY!

Going In For A Water Logged Week!

While all of you are working this week, we will be spending the week in the Wisconsin Dells. I believe it's the waterpark capital of the world. If it isn't, it should be!

The Hurricane
*** This just in...The Dells' tallest and most exciting indoor thrill ride will now get your heart racing even more! We have added fog machines, lightning and turbulent vibrations to make riders feel like they are riding the waves of a category five HURRICANE! ***
Experience the Hurricane in our Klondike Kavern (YES, ALL YEAR LONG!)

A scream-tastic waterslide that is sure to give riders a hair-raising experience! TWIST and TURN on the New Frontier's newest addition, as the Dells' TALLEST family raft ride!
Up to four guests plummet 58 ft down a thrilling, dark tunnel ride before dropping into a funnel where they experience several hair-raising oscillations and then splash into a pool below.

We Double Dare You!

Have a super week and be nice to Sandi!

Name that Iceberg!

This weekend we drove to Duluth, MN.

Just north of Duluth is an area referred to as the "North Shore". It's about 10-15 miles out of town. On the way we noticed people were walking out on these icebergs that were along the shore. We had to get out and participate. See behind me? That's the OPEN water of Lake Superior. These icebergs were brillant blue!! It was beautiful, scarey and adventureous all at the same time!

Happy Monday!

Why So Complicated??

We were taken against our will to the casino this past weekend. Well not really against our will. It's that we were passengers in the truck that wanted to go there. So we said what the heck, we'll go too. We get there and I said "let's go find the seven machines because I use to like playing that one." We find one but a lady was playing it. I asked her if she knew where the other "Seven" machines are. She told me there was only one other and someone was playing it. Off we go to find another machine to play.

Here's the easy machine I use to like to play.

Easy to follow along right? Match up the row to win, bars and sevens.

Here's a photo of the machines now days

Tell me....why so COMPLICATED???

We put in a $20 bill. Couldn't figure out what in the hell was matching to win.

We watched the credits go up and down for about 4 minutes.

We were up $14.00

$34.00 credits read on the machine.

We cashed out! Took our winnings and went to the bar to wait until the rest of the gang was finished playing for the evening.

We won't be going back any time soon!

Happy Monday!

I'm so there!

I'm so there!

I'd fly to London in July in a heart beat if I had a chance to see

Michael Jackson's final tour. Wouldn't you?

Okay, so my age is showing.

I think it would be awesome to see him.

What would really make my life semi complete would be:

Michael Jackson as the front entertainer

and

Madonna - Headliner!

FYI: (She won't come back to Minnesota for some reason)

Hey a girl can dream can't she?

Yeah, It's Phryday's Photo Fiesta over at Candid Carrie's Go say hi to Carrie (my Wisconsin neighbor) and take a look at all of her blogger's crazy fun foto's!!

Happy Friday!

Excuse Me????

Have you heard about this? Seems these POOR POOR folks that receive homes built by Ty Pennington and his wonder cast (Extreme Makeover: Home Edition) can borrow against their new house. These particular idiots also received $200,000 from the show. Maybe they should have put the $200,000 down towards their $450,000 mortgage instead of blowing the money.

Here's the story:

The couple who got a television show-sponsored extreme makeover of their Clayton County home in 2005 is again facing foreclosure on the massive abode.
According to a notice of foreclosure filed last month, the 5,300-square foot home built for Milton and Patricia Harper and their three sons is to be auctioned to the highest bidder Tuesday on the steps of the Clayton courthouse.






Patricia Harper, 44, did not want to talk about the pending sale Monday afternoon.
“Please leave the property,” she said when asked about the auction of her home on Ahyoka Drive in the town of Lake City.






The notice of sale alleges the couple defaulted on a $450,000 mortgage. The television show, “Extreme Makeover” built the house because the family was having septic tank problems.
After receiving the home and $200,000 from the show, the couple borrowed $450,000 with the home as collateral. The couple said last year the money was to start a business that failed.
Foreclosure was scheduled last August but at the last minute the sale was canceled. At that time, JP Morgan Chase bank said it was put on hold so the family could work out a payment deal.






Court records show the couple has struggled several years with finances. In January, a State Court judge ordered Milton Harper, 46, pay Southern Regional Medical Center $10,000 in health care charges and interest after the Riverdale hospital sued for the amount.
In Harper’s October answer to the hospital’s complaint, he said he was unemployed but did not follow advice to get indigent services agencies to help with the bill “due to my pride.” He mentioned his house had recently been in foreclosure and other creditors were seeking legal action against him.

Makes me sick because there are people that actually need a house that Ty builds!

Have a Super Tuesday!
