GIFT CARD JOKE

Now do not get me wrong I like gift cards mainly because I have a tendency to only like what I pick out!!!! So you may say why are you mad at the gift cards Bern? Well this is why.

Back in 1997 (wow more that 10 years ago) I took a basic marketing class and one of the things I learned was a way for Company's to make money were gift cards and rebates. Rebates because people forget to send them in (by the way I will send the rebate in even it is .50 dollars because I want to prove a point (I am really not making any money because the price of stamps). Also gift cards they make money because they plan on you not using the entire value, they plan on you loosing them, and they make sure they expire in 12 months. Awesome, well I got a new one for you.

I just received a Wal Mart Visa Debit: OK, here is the catch I can use it any where I want. However, I can not use it where pin is required (good one who thought of that)....HMMMM well where can I use a debit that does not require a pin......um NOWHERE FUCK HEADS!!!!!! So I call Wal Mart and wanted to make sure I am understanding this correctly..... So I call, oh yeah if I want to talk to some one personally there is a fee of 5 dollars a minute (that was a good one to lets just stick it to the customer why don't we) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WELL F YOU WAL MART I HATE YOU ANYWAY I WILL FIGURE OUT HOW TO USE THIS CARD AND GET EVERY PENNY OFF OF IT AND NEVER SHOP IN YOUR STINKY, SMELLY, NASTY, POOR WHITE TRASH STORE EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!

PICTURE OF A PICTURE

Well first of all this is a picture of a picture so not to clear. However, to me it looks like you are looking up someones nose. Yet, to the smart people out there it looks like you are looking into someones shoulder, go figure. Just to let you know the last picture is what Billy turns into at night.

GOOD SPORT

Billy is home now he had his shoulder repaired yesterday (full tear in rotator cuff....whatever that means if you like I have pictures of the tare). Dr. Andrews did his surgery and the funny thing is Dr. Andrews did his surgery when Billy was in college also. Dr. Andrews remembered him (I think he was on the side lines helping or watching or something I really do not know the details but what a small world).

So now Billy is up and about with a Novocaine block catheter (no not a pp catheter a neck catheter) and this "block" should last until Monday. Also, I rented Billy a hospital bed so he could sleep propped up (oh and maybe I had selfish intentions with this hospital bed, so Billy would be sleeping in the other room I do keep my cell with me so if he needs help he can call).

So hope you feel better soon Billy Boy.

EATING TOGETHER

One of the most important things a family can do is eat together. Here are some of my reasons:

1.) talk time ...this is Billy's favorite time because i can ask him 500 questions and he loves to answer all of them

2.) eat time .... you can make sure you family is eating correctly you know fruits, veggies, grains, meats and soda (no wait soda is not balanced so you soda drinkers even diet soda is not good it eats away at your teeth and bones)

3.) relaxation time: do not eat standing up do not eat in the car relax eat slow (i should listen to my words i can eat dinner in about 5 minutes flat).

4.) also if you have children it is a time to teach manners, social skills, and healty eating habits ...those kids that only eat chicken fingers annoy me (now that I said that my kids will only eat chicken fingers, actually they probably will not they will only know what chicken fingers are if they go to a friends house)

So don't eat standing up or in a hurry call a friend or eat with the fam......or if you are single eat while everybody loves Raymond is on and you can pretend they are your family.

PRESIDENT ELECT

Of course you know who I voted for! However, we have a new president and I am glad. Why am I glad? I am glad because I am hoping for somethings to happen now:

1.) low gas (i like low gas because when it is inexpensive to drive cars people buy cars)

2.) stable market (I really like a stable market I mean I really like a market that goes up !!!! however I can not be greedy)

3.) no more campaigning

4.) a minority as president: maybe people will now realize America is progressive and no one will play that minority card (did i mention i hate the minority card).

5.) i am also glad because hopefully people will give him a chance (the people that did not vote for him) remember he is still our president.

I just have one request Barack (you know since you read my blog and all) please oh please oh please do not raise tax's.

YUMMY

Well I learn lots of stuff in my Bradley Class!!! I am getting smarter and smarter as the days go by. One thing I learned last week is PICA. Pica is when you eat non food items such as cigaretts, clay, starch or buttons the list goes on and on (I would like to see your number two after you ate a button I bet that feels good).

So if you want to learn more about PICA go to the following website it is very interesting I did not know people did such things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pica_(disorder)

I AM GRATEFUL

I am grateful for people who are not smart. Because when I am around them I feel like the superior human being!!!!! Which makes me feel good.
