Bargains to be had on-line!

It appears that the wife is still trying to get an idea for a gift for Father’s Day, she has been pestering me to death lately trying to figure out what it is that would trip my trigger as a gift. I walked in on her the other evening while she was on the PC, seems she was surfing around for ideas on the Web, she loves shopping on the Internet, it is rare that she even sets foot in a store now a days other than the grocery store and when on-line grocery shopping comes out this far from the city I’m sure she will be taking advantage of that also. I don’t blame her a bit, I never have been one to go shopping.

The wife had found a web-site www.bestonlinecoupons.com which is a great site for discount clothing with online sale, promotion and bargain offers for people just like herself, she is a true bargain hunter. They have tons of money saving promotions for lots of on-line shopping at places like Wal-Mart, Circut City, Dell, Macys, Best Buy and several more to look into. She tells me that they are constantly up dating their offers and that there is no fee involved anywhere, so she checks there now and then to see what they have got to offer at that time.

I’m hoping that she is looking at Circut City to see if there are any good deals on a nice HD Flat screen T.V. for the living room, now that would be a great Father’s Day gift. I will have to make sure that I mention that idea to her and I can tell her that Circut City is on the web-site that she was looking at the other evening before I broke in on her unexpected like.

New meds

One of the many things that my doctor and I talked about was my breathing difficulties that I am dealing with, something that has been a burden for many a years now and my wife is threatening to move into the spare room if I don’t get something done about the snoring part of it soon. She even went and video taped me the other night while I was sleeping and got some impressive footage of my loud snoring so that I would sympathize with her more, which I certainly do now.

Anyway the doctor gave me another nose spray and a prescription for a new pill that I haven’t tried before and tells me that if in 3 months things are not better then he will schedule me to see a surgeon so that they can drill a hole inside of my nose to allow the air to flow better. It is a real drag that as soon as I lay my head down that my nose immediately closes up and the snoring begins shortly after. I sure hope that this new stuff does the trick because I am not at all anxious to be cut on, ya know what I mean.

Web hosting made simple

I found a web-site that makes the decision of picking which web hosting is for you. It has picked the 10 best Web Hosting Sites and ranked them by affordability, reliability, up time and technical support which makes it a simple and easy site to maneuver around in, which is a plus in my book, to say the least.

Something that I found interesting was their tips for avoiding web hosting scams and inform you of some of the tricks that these companies use on people in order to gain their business. On the bottom of that page are words to the wise: Remember to read both the TOS (terms of service) and AUP (acceptable use policy) to ensure no hidden surprises later!

I was surprised to see that I was not familiar with the majority of web hosting sites, of course Yahoo is there and I just recently heard of Go Daddy, not that I am that much into that part of computing, but still, I don’t live in a cave either.

The link to their Quick Start tells of the three main things that you need just to get you started on a Web page which are a domain name, a web design in mind, and your web-hosting and then they take it from there with a detailed step by step to get you going on your way, which can be done all by your self, as long as you know the basics of the computer world.
One of our daughters will be taking a class next year the deals just with that, the developing of a web-site, so I have bookmarked this site of www.webhostingchoice.com for future use, it may be of some use to her or her mom and I when she turns to us with that face of hers that is screaming “I need help” which at that point we decided which one, mom or dad, gets to be the one to help.

China over 40,000 now dead

You can’t help but no about the devastation going on in China these days, must have been on hell of an earthquake to have done so much damage. The news this morning was stating that the toll is now 40,000 people dead. That is a lot of people I can’t remember what they sad the number was for folks being presumed dead that are still missing in that whole mess, but I’m sure the number staggering. I must say that somebody really upset Mother Nature on that day.

Doctor’s appointment today

Had an appointment today with my doctor, was there for a good while, they always leave you waiting in the examination room for too long, I get inpatient and start looking around, in the drawers and cabinets, anything that will make the time go faster.

He says that a man my age need to start thinking about his prostrate, which sent me right through the roof, I’ve seen and heard too much to want to go there at this time. And just the thought of the doctor putting on that rubber glove and hearing it do it’s famous SNAP is just too much to bare.

The wife was planning on going with me today for the appointment but could not get away from work, so while preparing dinner this evening she started the interrogation of the visit, trying so hard to get every piece of information of what was said and what was done, and what needs to get done. I try hard to remember it all because I know that she will be asking, but this old man isn’t much for remembering stuff like that so well, and in infuriates her to the point of know return at times. I managed to relay enough to her tonight though and of course she wasn’t happy to hear of the doctor’s concerns and the way that I handled the situation, I’m not surprised.

After dinner she went straight onto the computer and got on-line and asked me to look over a site that she had up on the screen, it turned out to be the web-site for www.Oxypowder.com which is the very well known Colon Cleansing product that we see on television and in magazines I suspect.

She was trying to convince me to order their colon cleansing product, swearing that it would be good for me, and how it would make me feel so much better in several areas. She sounded like a Oxypowder salesperson the way she was going on about how it helps back aches, mood swings, foul breath, body odor, week immune systems and appetites and on and on and on. I informed her that I knew that she had well intentions and how I appreciated it, really I do, but I had had enough talk for the day about my colon, that I would think about it, and maybe she should order some that we both could reap the benefits together.

I did have to chuckle at the pictures that were coming up while checking out their web-site:
