		<description><![CDATA[The coach potatoes and movie addicts have won. They have gotten more reasons to lay on the couch and spend all weekend watching movies. There is a greater selection of mind numbing entertainment than ever. Now there is no need to pay $75 to $100 for a monthly subscription. The cost of all television shows and movies can now be streamed to the home TV for a fraction of the cost of what it has been. Oh has the cost really dropped? Considering all the options that are available who want to go to a big screen theater? Why would I waste my money on gas by driving to the local cinema multiplex. I can&#8217;t really afford paying for admissions into the theater along with over priced soda, popcorn and candy. The idea of  watching a movie sitting next to this guy who makes strange noises while drinking his soda is enough to make me stay home. Free over the air television means I have to adjust my schedule to watch my favorite programs. Why hasn&#8217;t anyone come up with a way I can record NCIS Los Angles while I am at work? On the weekend, the local stations only show really old [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is amazing what golden treasures can be found from the simple act of cleaning out the bedroom closet. Treasures get pushed back to the rear of the closet out of shear neglect. Other treasures are put back to the rear of the closet for safe keeping. Still other treasure are put there we don&#8217;t want to acknowledged their existence. Clothes get the honored place at the ends of the wooden hanging rod just because they are not worn. It was a week ago when I got tired of wrestling shirts and pants that looked vaguely familiar. I knew many of them could not of have been mine. The pants were two, three, and four inches narrower in the waist than what I wear. The shirts were so tight they felt like plastic wrap around my chest. All those strange articles of clothing were placed in one big plastic garbage bag. The following day my wife escorted the bag to the local thrift store. As much as our closet needed a good old fashion Spring cleaning, I have seen other closets in much worst conditions. The first one that comes to mind is the closet of the mother of a friend. This closet was off the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The aroma from steaks cooking rises from the grill and migrates over to my nostril. The noise of children playing in the background. Adults laughing over something funny. Country music playing. All of these individual things brought together making the Saturday afternoon barbecue  perfect. If I was to tell you the grill generated its&#8217; heat from a short fat white tank of propane, you may discount the whole barbecue experience. I know other folks who would raise their voices in protest. They would complain saying the steaks should of have been cooked on hickory wood chips or charcoal briquettes at the very least. Anything less would be an abomination to the meat. I must confess there was a time when I would of have been in that number of purist. I thought natural wood or charcoal was a must to enjoy the only true barbecue experience. Now like so many others I have surrendered to the little white tank filled with the flammable gas called propane. In times past I attended a gathering, where salmon was taken fresh off the boat, driven 30 miles in a cooler and placed on a grill. That grill was fired by a special blend of oak and hickory [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Growing my dad would continually tell me, &#8220;Never put off for tomorrow what you can do today.&#8221; Several years ago, I a friend would constantly quote, &#8220;Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance&#8221;. I have observed and proven in my own life the more I do plan, the better the out come. If my planning is for a career change, marriage or even a simple shopping trip produces better results. Over this past weekend, I introduced our daughter to a spreadsheet. Her assignment was to put together her Back-to-School budget. Since she will be going into 7th grade, we figured it was time to step up her budgeting skills. It all started giving our daughter a certain amount of money for her school supplies and back to school clothes. She could no spend more than what we gave her. Last year she progressed to writing out her school supply list and clothing, then present us with it. We discussed it and adjusted her budget accordingly. This year she is to put her budget together, and present it to us. Since this year she is going into 7th grade. In addition she has been accepted into a special program for kids who are college bound, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The underlying theme for this year has been comparisons. NO! It is not just an underlying theme, it is a must when it comes to smart shopping. Whenever I go shopping there is always comparisons taking place. In the back of my mind I am running the figures as to the price difference between brand A and brand B. I reduce their cost to the lowest common unit;  per ounce, per box, or per gram. At the same time I am thinking back to  what other stores are selling the same brand at the lowest common unit from that store. Finally, before I make a decision I look at the quality difference between brand A and brand B. It was back in the mid 1980&#8242;s when Pepsi and Coke Coca went head to head with each other. We were seeing a lot of taste test comparison commercials.  I was titled the Cola Wars. Since then we have seen a lot of there companies do the very same thing. We are in an election year. As we go into summer we are going to see the major candidates compare themselves with their opposition more and more.  They will be comparing themselves on all the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just the other day, I had to reset my password to my Amazon.com. It had been sometime since I bought anything there. Normally, my web browser would automatically log me into the checkout section of the website. The reason it would not let me login was because I changed computers since the last time I logged into Amazon.com. It took me five extra minutes to reset my password. The password reset for Amazon.com was much easier than if I were to reset the password for my bank. My bank makes me jump through a several hoops to do a password reset. They even make me jump through other hoops if I try to access my bank account from a different computer. I have to verify who I am via text message or phone call to tell them it is okay to access my bank account from a different computer. Why am I writing about user names and passwords? Well, time is money. The time and energy just resetting  a forgotten passwords can be extremely frustrating. The time and frustration can take away other things we can do that is more productive. In this world technology, and identity thieves we are bound [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever bought a cheap bottle of multi vitamins? Then a week later you found yourself constantly sitting on the toilet with diarrhea? Well, I have. The rest of that bottle has been sitting on a shelf in the kitchen cupboard for about three years. Early this week, I spend quite some time on the phone, with my brother. He is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to holistic remedies, vitamins, and herbs.   His health has been dramatically improved, over the past year, just by using other than traditional medical treatments. As each year passes, I find myself leaning more to the holistic approach for my medical needs. The more I read the label on even over the counter medication, I get scared. Take for example the bottle of Day Quil. The label reads, &#8220;Taking more than recommended dose can cause serious health problems, including liver damage.&#8221; Does this scare you? It scares me! This is the very reason why we have been doing more prevention over after treatment. Whenever anyone in our family starts to feels like a cold or flu coming on, I stick a glass of Airborne under their nose. It does a great job reducing the affects of a cold or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is usually mid late Spring when what I like to call Garage Sale Season starts. The weather has started to warm up. People are doing their Spring cleaning. They find this amount of clutter that needs to be removed from the garage. This clutter can range from the clothes little Susie has out grown to that mounted moose head, that is no longer allowed to hang in the living room. Yes, it can be taken to the local thrift store. Let them sell it or take it to the dump. Or even better, have a yard sale and sell that moose head to some young college student who wants to hang it in his living room to impress his buddies. Personally, I really enjoy traveling through neighborhoods looking for cardboard sign with Magic Marker lettering. On them are written Garage Sale, Yard Sale, Estate Sale, or even Moving Sale. No matter what the name a sale is a sale with one purpose and one purpose only. Get rid of those unwanted items in the garage and the rest of the house. By selling them there is hopes to make enough money to afterwards to take the family out to a dinner [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today we are going to look at two more minivans. The reason why we continue to compare Minivans is their impact on American life. They have become more than the traditional family means of transportation. Minivans have been seen as used by service companies. I am seeing appliance repair, electrical repair and other service companies use minivans as a means to save on gas. Thing about it if there is not need for transport of large bulky supplies, a lot of little items, the a minivan makes sense. This week we are looking at the Honda Odyssey and the Mazda 5. Two mini vans that are manufactured on American soil by Japanese based companies. I chose to compare the Honda Odyssey and Mazda5 because on the outward they are very similar.  They arrive to US streets at the time a certain segment of the US population fought the invasion of foreign car manufactures. Still they came and today they are doing relatively well. The Honda Odyssey has been on American roads since 1994. The Mazda&#8217;s contribution to the minivan market, the Mazda 5, did not hit American Roads until 1999. Both don&#8217;t have an overwhelming presence on American roads, yet we do see them. The Honda Odyssey comes in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This last winter I read Innocents Aboard by Mark Twain. The book is about one of the first luxury curses made from the United States through the Mediterranean region, and on to the Holy Land. Mr Twain documented his side trips and adventures with is unique sense of humor. Realize it took place a more than a century and half ago. We have come a long way in our vacation travels since then. Back then many countries did not like the idea of welcome American vacationers visiting. Today, we are welcomed with open arms. Talking with various people who take a vacation abroad have told me it can be less expensive than taking a weeks vacation at a Disneyland resort. The numbers I have ran show it to be pretty close. In the last couple of years I am seeing more and more people starting to really travel, again. One individual I know spent last week on a Norwegian Cruise  for the technologically minded. A fellow writer will in a few weeks be taking a week long vacation with his wife traveling throughout Ireland and England. I have talked to another individual who is taking his entire family to Costa Rica for a family vacation. All this global [...]]]></description>
