Walgreens Eliminates the Pricey Middle Man

Friday, January 13, 2012

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Have you noticed it yet? Have you been to Walgreens to pick up a prescription only to discover that your Express Script benefits no longer work there? The reason is failed negotiation. Express Scripts basically “wrote [...]

Everybody has them on Tuesday but I thought I’d be different and have mine on Saturday. *** I don’t like that a lot of my pals are on Facebook all the time and not blogging as much. I don’t like all the “sharing” that goes on there. Nothing against you guys, really, but blog posts, [...]

Go 180

This movie (below), the 180movie, will make you think. It’s done by Ray Comfort, who runs Way of the Master. We love his TV show. In the beginning, it has some disturbing images of World War II. It’s stuff we’ve seen in high school, but it’s still disturbing. But it certainly makes the point. And [...]

Faster Than a Speedy Bullet….

Isn’t that a funny video?! It took FOREVER to load, though. Thank God people don’t send earthquake news via YouTube, or we’d be still waiting for the buffering…. Twitter IS pretty speedy. Quite a number of times, I’ve gotten up-to-date news that was not available anywhere. When we had the bad flooding last week and [...]

Where Were You on 8/23/11?

We shall never forget…. *takes off hat, holds hat to heart* I was on my bed, typing at my laptop (I write upstairs in my room, it’s quieter). Suddenly, I feel the bed swaying. Just a little. But it’s constant, so it gets my attention. As if someone is rocking the bed just a little [...]

Are These Scientists FOR REAL???

Update: A friend informed me of a followup to this story which was featured on several news publications. Apparently, the study in this story was just a “diversionary” project and not officially launched (so to speak) by NASA or any official body. Which is a relief. So please take the following as a work of [...]

Friday Fragments: Why?

I was never one of those children who always asked “Why?” as a kid. I do remember thinking it ALL THE TIME but I wasn’t very vocally inquisitive as a very young child. I’ve since made up for it. *** Why are “historical” movies so unhistorical and riddled with errors, even when it’s a very [...]

Trying Not to Think About It….

… the economy. And how the politicians and bankers are totally wrecking it. On purpose, it would seem. I mean– hey, why not, right? They have everything to gain from the economy going on its head, right? Just like the stock market crash 100 years ago. Oh sure, that was a bad time for the [...]

Meet Me on Monday… Thursday Edition!

Oh I have to snicker at myself. Is it really, truly Thursday already?! What happened? It was Monday just a few hours ago, right?! This time-passing-faster-than-a-speeding-bullet conundrum can’t be the result of getting older. It just can’t. You younger folks– time is speeding for you, too, isn’t it? Reminds me of the book of Daniel: [...]
