THESE!!!

BWAHAHAHAHA! I just [...]

I have no idea where I found this video…. lol. BUT I LOVE IT! It’s Bruce Lee playing Ping Pong. HIS way of playing Ping Pong. Lee, with his usual panache, makes Ping Pong a stylish, artful choreography. Go, Lee, Go! Stunning!

For you newbies to this blog, I am a Bruce Lee/Chuck Norris fan. I [...]

Got ‘pinions?

I have lots of ‘pinions, as I say. (opinions). I used to be worried about having sooo many opinions, but not any more, lol. Plus, people sometimes pay me for my opinions now. :D  I like to review stuff. I love reading reviews myself, actually. I usually never buy anything until I’ve researched it and [...]

The past few weeks, I’ve noticed that my visitor count has been drastically low on my blogs. I don’t think it was due to the holidays- this began sometime around the first of the month. Also, it seems that I haven’t been receiving any traffic from Google searches, except for image searches.

OH NO, you probably groaned! But YES! This is the time when I hit the stores, scarfing up sales left and right, hoarding up for next year’s gift-giving/birthday gift season.

Finding Cheap Jigsaw Puzzles

Does anyone know where I might find inexpensive jigsaw puzzles? The kids are really “into” jigsaw puzzles lately. We spent two nice, quiet days working on a complicated 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle, and it was so much fun!

I’ve checked Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc. Most puzzles seem to be priced in the $20 range, too expensive [...]

Where’s That Holiday “Team Player” Spirit??

HILARIOUS! A guy from Anchorage, Alaska, Bill Powers, built a HUGE snowman in his front yard, and named it Snowzilla. News story here. He built it for his seven kids in his yard, but Snowzilla quickly became a part-tourist attraction/part-freak show. Looks like word got around, and people are driving over to Bill Powers’ neighborhood [...]
