TV

And unless you have been stuck in the stone age or still stuck in the year say maybe before that year of 1950's when television was invented, surely you must have heard of those tv's by now, you know those usually square boxes that one can have in their home with sounds and pictures coming out of them. Well long gone are those basic tv's with those basic television stations, as now there is direct tv, at www.dx3.net where one can watch seemingly a million different television channels for seemingly non stop for a million hours or more each day, or something like that. And with directtv, one can find lots of great deals and savings when it comes to watching that satellite tv. You can find many HD channels at their website with hundreds of channels such as directv on demand,  local channels, HBO, Showtime, CNN, Cinemax, TLC, TBS, TV Land, Discovery and many, many more television channels and packages to choose from for those movies, entertainment, news, weather,  specials and more that you would like to watch. And now with that HD, high definition quality that one can watch television with, watching those movies and more can seem as if one can be at one of those movie theaters themselves.  And so if you happen to be looking for that DIRECTV deal, finding it has never been easier.

Pay Day Loans Sunrise Finance

And I think I have heard that song that goes something like, money, money, money, money, what people do for money. And it seems as if money makes the world go round and a host of other sayings and philosophies when it comes to that word money. And with the economy seeming as if it wants to have one of those going out of business everything must go sales and the mortgage meltdown seeming as if it is still melting and that stock market tanking faster than the speed of light and the recession impending depression is having everyone having one of those everything must go going out of business sales and the treasury can't seem to print up enough money fast enough to cover it all and bail out even the bailouts and wall street is occupied, that I find myself blogging about the phrase payday loans sunrise finance, as in need cash fast, have a ton of IOU's and I'll pay you laters going on? Do you find yourself hiding out from the answering machine from those bill collectors? Do you find yourself saving up enough money just to be broke? Or do you find yourself in need of money for just about any other reason? Well if you need cash fast, you can find those payday loans at Sunrise Financial. You can find auto loans, personal loans, home improvement loans and more at their website. And even with bad credit one can still apply for that payday loan with their three minute online application and instant approval. And they also have some interesting get cash fast news to read at their website as well such as that Cash - Back Rewards More Popular Than Ever article. And just be sure to try and pay your creditor back lest you find yourself hiding out from that answering machine again.

And if I must blogger say, that title "Saving up to Go Bankrupt" is a funny title indeed, I think. And that Music For Occupy press release reads something like as follows:

The Freebie

And if it's free, then it's for me, maybe. And even if it's at a discount then it's for me, maybe. And so I find myself blogging about the phrases online freebies by mail, free books online and ReallyFreeSamples.com for some reason or another on this blogging day. And in all blogger actuality, I have seen people who visit those online freebie websites for those free trial and sample offers throughout my travels here on planet earth, as it seems as if every week they are receiving those sample packets of products in the mail. And at All-Free-Samples.com, one can find all kinds of free samples for books, music, beauty, food, clothes, pet food, entertainment, movies and more. And just visiting their website has me wanting to start clicking around in those different categories to see what could be free for me. One can find samples for free Tide, free chicken fajita tacos, free bath lotion, free coffee and more at their website. And now with the age of online just about everything under the sun, one can find those free products and more without ever having to leave home, or at least without ever having to leave one of those computers with just a website visit away.

Day of the Earth Again






Some stories do not end as you expect and the only thing constant is change. And so I find myself posting this earth day post again that was posted on this blog some time a while ago. Happy day of the earth.

And on this day finds itself to be Sunday, that day of the sun that has rolled around again in the week of seven days here on planet earth. Sunday, that day of rest, that day of god. Or is that Saturday, the sabbath. And yet I find myself blah blogging again on this blog again for some reason. And so the following is one of those posts that was written on this blog some time a while ago and posted on my other blog last week or that finds itself on this blog again form some reason. As my attempt to maintain more than one blog wants to confuse me sometimes:

And so it must be earth day again this year, I know because all of those headlines on this day says so. And how long has this day been around on the calendar anyway I am wondering, as is this some new invention go to along with the go green it's the new thing global warming climate change concept. And so what can I blah blog about this day that has not already been said. And so I thought to post something that I already could have posted about this day on my other blog, or at least about global warming because hey, it's less writing sometimes when those holidays roll around each year as scheduled:

And it seems as if the world is spinning out of control these days and times when I look around me and turn on the news of the day. So much that I start to wonder about those top ten prophetic signs of the end of the world that I blah blogged about some time ago. And the world is ever changing, and the only thing constant is change. And then there is the mortgage meltdown crisis where half of America seems to be becoming homeless at the moment and homeless shelters, tents, shantytowns and soup kitchens are becoming overcrowded with working class people, and maybe squatting and squats may rise and come to life and everyone can be free and live off the land for free, and then there is the oil crisis, created by some creator and plundering the earth for more oil, and the impending doom of the stock market down jones bear market economy collapse crisis, and the depression recession era, and the United States dollar and Uncle Scam going broke with the European Union, and the ecosystem collapse crisis, and the bees that are dying, the bats that are dying, the fish that are disappearing and whole species of animals dying off crisis, and then the corn is disappearing, the rice is disappearing, and food prices are increasing, and food is disappearing and the weather is extreme, floods are flooding, wildfires are firing and earthquakes are quaking. And then there is global warming, the go green it's the new thing thing and climate change. And there are famines, and wars, and nations against nations, and kings against kings, and guns are the worst invention of an industry ever, and there could be way too many people on planet earth, and the population is projected to double and go straight up in twenty years or something with that j bell curve thing. Is the earth running out of space for humanity yet? And who are those survival plan survivalist people. And technology is ever advancing. And who or what is Sodom and Gomorrah. And could this be the story of the rise and fall of a nation or the world or something, or anything. And is this just the beginning of birth pains? Is the end yet to come, if ever? What days and times are we on planet mother earth living in. What does the future hold, is there hope for the world. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.

and this one.......


An Auto Bailout

So what's that thing that has been in the news a lot lately that along with the economy and the Wall Street stock market exchange seemingly going out of business and having one of those everything must go sales, the three big automakers of Ford, general Motors and I forget the other one, is it Chrysler, are asking for bailout of their debt in I guess the latest of companies to succumb to the domino effect of businesses that seem as if they want to go out of business. And I guess they are asking for a bailout to basically make more cars. And isn't the world already chocked on enough cars already. Shouldn't those automakers see this as a sign to stop making cars that seem to be speeding up global warming, climate change and 2012 on track with their carbon dioxide greenhouse gas emissions. And those auto maker employers who are having sit ins from being layed off as a result of this going out of business sale, can't they just be given severance pay and the automobile industry close down altogether or switch to environmentally clean fuel such as electric, solar or other alternatives fuels sources that are not contributing to the war for oil, oil and more oil. Isn't it possible to just recycle cars and automobiles, as it may look cool to have a bunch of retro looking cars on the road these days from eras of days past ago. Wouldn't it be safer for the environment for those oil guzzling automobiles to just disappear. And those presidential policies in that country of America seem all the same as if the demoncratics seem to be speaking the language of the republicans who seem to speak the language of the state, and the state of what I am not exactly sure. Isn't it possible to help save planet mother earth instead of asking for more money to harm it and the environment. Is another world possible. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.

And this one.....


Plastic Nation

And I was watching this program called "Strange Days On Planet Earth" the other day, well actually the other month ago on Channel 13 and it was very interesting as their programs usually are. And I tried to take notes for this program to post on my blog in my blogaholicness and those notes became something of a garbled gibberish without complete sentences like this: human contaminants along the coast, coral reefs disappearing, the Sonate underground rivers from the Mayas are disappearing. From the human population trash is getting dumped and releasing pollution from a world of concrete and steel. Protect the rivers, save planet mother earth. The stripped bass are sick with lesions, humans are trashing the planet, the coral reefs are turning pale, fish are being found with bacteria, the sea gulls are starving to death. From overpopulation, action creates reaction. Protect the coral reefs, developers are draining mangroves, the ocean is being over fished and the fish are disappearing. Save the fish, save the sea, save the water, save the planet. The ecosystem is all connected with global change. The restaurant industry and cater waiter dispose of tons of fish going down the drain and into the trash on a daily basis. The fish industry is over farming and depleting life in the ocean. There is global warming, the food chain and the ecosystem is out of balance, there is an ecoapocalypse of the bees, frogs, bats, rice and wheat dying. Maybe we should all stop eating fish to save the oceans and environment. And those stripped bass lesions could be the canary in the coal mine as stripped bass do not like warm waters where there is no oxygen creating stress on the body from chemical fertilizers washed into rivers. No oxygen waters become dead zones. Humanity becomes the enemy of the earth from chemical run off in streams from urban areas, water contamination, car auto oil, the Valdez Exxon oil spill from cars. Pollution is plaguing the seas with trash. Sea birds are dying from chemicals, albatross birds are dying from plastic trash and there is a plastic continent twice the size of Texas with a toilet bowl vortex effect somewhere out there in the middle of the ocean,a plastic soup that does not biodegrade or go away. The Albatross bird species are dying and disappearing from the plastic ocean and from plastic pellet food. One person produces 1500 pounds of plastic per year that finds its ways to the rivers, seas and oceans as the tide of the ocean reverses. And then there was that scary topic of plastics ill effects on human beings. Plastic actually leaches into the water and mimics estrogen in animals producing gender benders, reproduction and health problems amongst humanity. There is some poly carbon resin plastic hormone called phthalates, bisphenol A and BPA's that are FDA approved and leach into the water pipes, containers that hold food, baby bottles and the like. And those chemicals get absorbed into our bodies. Now that is enough to make me not want to buy that plastic bottle of mile, water, juice and soda anymore. And what other container is there left then? It is a plastic poly carbon, hormone, time bomb in the genes of humanity and the Japanese do not use this phenol product. And then there is the ocean again,the heat and light causing coral reefs to bleach. lose their pigmentation and turn pale like the skeletons of the rainforest, trapping carbon dioxide gases in the atmosphere,changing the chemistry of the sea water making it acidic to where nothing can live in it, which mimics and imitates the sea water of the blood of humanity as nothing can live in an acidic environment. And then there is that go green its the newest thing slogan of these days that asks one to make smart choices to protect planet mother earth. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.

Ohm

And so when I hear of that phrase Tibetan Singing Bowls, it brings images to mind of monks chanting or of yoga and yoga classes or of some other kind of new age spiritual nirvana bliss type of experience or event. And I think I may have seen those singing bowls throughout my travels here on planet earth, as they are sometimes used in those singing bowl ceremonies. And so if you happen to be looking for crystal singing bowls, yoga and meditation, herbal incense, prayer wheels, chimes, Tibetan prayer flags, gongs, Himalayan salt and just about all things Tibetan, Silver Sky Imports has those Tibetan items you may be looking for. They can take you to Tibet with their any items from Tibet and Nepal with just a website visit away.

An Auto Bailout Again


Okay so this is yet another one of those recycle this blog posts that found itself on this blog some time a while ago in an attempt to maintain content for this blog and my other blog whenever blaghers block possible.

So what's that thing that has been in the news a lot lately that along with the economy and the Wall Street stock market exchange seemingly going out of business and having one of those everything must go sales, the three big automakers of Ford, general Motors and I forget the other one, is it Chrysler, are asking for bailout of their debt in I guess the latest of companies to succumb to the domino effect of businesses that seem as if they want to go out of business.

The Gadget

And so on this blogging day I find myself blogging about the phrase Geek Toys 2012. And so what else is there that I can say about this phrase Geek Toys 2012 that has not already been said in Geek Toys 2012 blogger time. Well, for one, that phrase has me to wondering what it means. And if you happen to be looking for those Geek Toys 2012 or wondering what those Geek Toys 2012 are all about as I am, GeekAlerts has those gadgets for geeks and can tell you all about them. And who or what's a geek, as isn't that those computer user people of long lore ago. And so back to GeekAlerts. One can find gadget news and some really cool geeky stuff at their website such as those Sushi Sticky Notes, the Come In, Go Away doormat (now that's a funny one), Converse Dr. Seuss Green Eggs and Ham shoes, and a whole lot more funny, cool and geeky stuff. You can also find some discounts, online coupons and promotion codes for online stores such as Petsmart coupons, Old Navy, Home Depot, Best Buy, an Amazon promotional code, Musicians Friend, Sky Mall, Staples, Target and more when it comes to discounts. And now with the age of online just about everything, finding those gadgets and more online has never been easier.

May Day 2012



Hey again bloggers, or whoever could be reading this blagh. And unless you have been stuck in the stone age or hiding out underneath one of those rocks, you may have heard by now that those global revolutions of a movements Occupy Wall Street and Occupy Together are happening. And Occupy Wall Street is having an Occupy Wall Street May Day 2012 General Strike May 1st Day. Workers of the world unite. No Housework. No Banking. No Shopping. No School. No work.

Unrest Again


Okay so it's not exactly Christmas as far as I blogger know according to that Gregorian calendar on the wall. It's just that this is yet another one of those recycle this blog posts in an attempt to maintain content for this blog and my other blog whenever web 2.0 user generated content social media blaghers block possible. And even those the names, times and dates may change, unfortunately this story below seems to remain the same.

And there is unrest in the world. And I know because there are headlines in the news and sitting in my email inbox seemingly piling up upon each other with no end in sight with titles that read, "Defiant Hamas hits Israel with dozens of rockets, Taliban burning, beheading its way through Pakistani valley, Man shoots talker at movies, 'Santa' opens fire at Calif. party , Clashes hit Athens ahead of boy's funeral, shots fired in SoCal Toys 'R' Us". And these headlines seem as if they want to be endless. And even though the mantra of the day seems to be "Happy Holidays", it sometimes does not seem so happy. As a bleak grim photo of the world seems as if it is being painted between the economy, people who are losing their lives on a daily
basis due to gun violence, that subject that seems to be nowhere found in those presidential election campaigns, an endless amount of seemingly never ending wars that seem as if they have been around since the beginning of time, and a seemingly endless amount of other atrocious and incomprehensible headlines that are too innumerable for me to mention in one blog posting. And are these merry happy holy dayze in this seasons greetings, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year time of year. Are they to be found somewhere here on planet earth. And I wonder if this world that seems as if it is spinning out of control is all part of that 2012 on track thing, or that Kali Yuga iron age descending thing, or some other magical explanation that could be written the stars somewhere in prophecy. And is there a reason to celebrate the holidays this year, these days and times. And it is an observance. Where is the world headed. No one is free when others are oppressed. Is another world possible. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.
