I really want a Flip!!!!

-
Really, really badly!!! Let me explain. I have the cutest bird in the world, Mr. P. He is such a chatterbox. He probably has a vocabulary of about 50-100 words by now, and he's only a year old. He does the cutest thing where he sleeps and talks in his sleep. I have tried to video him on my little camera but it just doesn't pick up his voice. I really, really want to get a Flip Video so that I can record him and post it on my blogs. It is too adorable for words.

So with that in mind I was cruising around to see what they go for now. I haven't looked at them in about a year so I just thought I'd check it out. My first stop of course was Buy.com to check out what might be on sale, and what do I find but this.



It's a pink Flip!! But that's not the best part. It's only $89.99 because it's reconditioned. How cool is that??? I have no problem buying reconditioned. I buy almost all my electronics reconditioned and have never had a problem. Plus, I really trust Buy.com and am comfortable buying reconditioned from them. I've done it before. And by buying reconditioned I generally save a lot of money. In this case they usually go for $129 to $149. So by buying reconditioned I'm saving at least $40 and as much as $60. Woo Hoo!!! With this savings I could get the $20 pouch so that it's protected when I carry it. And it's pink too. Ooooowwwwww, I want it. Awww, what the heck, I'm going to go for it. I'm off to buy.com to purchase my Flip.

Nothing wrong with reconditioned - in fact, sometimes better, because you are not the one with the problem in the first place. I got David an ipod for Christmas for half price direct from Apple - reconditioned. No problems at all.

There are many ways to measure success,

and today I found yet another one. The Great Aloha Run this morning was just awesome. I didn't break any records, it was not my best time by far, but I think this was one of my best races ever. After getting up at 4 a.m., driving to the finish line, catching a bus to the start, standing in line for the port-a-potties(more on this later), I still found myself with over 45 mins before the race started. So I found a place to sit and people watched for 1/2 an hour - that is always fun. Finally, at 6:45 we headed out to the start. One of the things the Great Aloha Run does is they have the Sounds of Freedom. These are military units from all over the island that run in formation singing cadence the whole way. They line up on the side of the road and they have a silent start 8 minutes before the race starts. It's always a special sight to see them go. I'm a flag waving fool and when I see our military I just get all gushy. I feel so proud to live in a country where young...

Colloidal Silver

-
colloidal silver is very fine particles that are suspended in liquid, usually water. This apparently has antimicrobial properties and has been used externally to treat wounds and burns to prevent infection. Working in the lab we get lots of nasty, nasty burns. You ain't been burned till you've been burned with hot sodium hydroxide - yow momma!!!! Anyway, we always kept a jar of colloidal silver around and used it on burns. It not only helped it heal it seemed to reduce the pain. I don't know how it just did. Now, some folks think you should drink this. They say it has antibiotic properties and is fairly harmless to drink. I don't know if that's true but it sure would be nice if it was. I hate taking antibiotics for a number of reasons. It would be nice to be able to drink something and have the same thing happen. colloidal silver has also been used to keep potable water drinkable for long periods. This sounds like some pretty amazing stuff. Being the scien...

My blog is great!!!

Look to the left there. My blog has been rated by blogged.com as Great!!! I scored 8.5 out of 10. Woo Hoo!!! I don't normally get excited over things like this, but I'm on a mission to create great blogs and this is just a little validation. So for some reason I was incredibly busy last night and stayed up way past my bedtime. As a result I didn't get up this morning. Well, that and the fact that is was freaking cold. We are in this spring weather cycle where it is warm and beautiful during the day, and cold, cold, cold at night. Makes for good sleeping but hard getting out of bed. Fe-Lady is raising funds for a really, really good cause. Go here and help her out why don'tcha. In my humble opinion there is not enough we can do to help out our American Heroes. So go, give, it'll feel good...... That's it for now. I need to get some work done.
