Those are some pretty awesome prizes! With the exception of the Blugamer package, these prizes include a trip for 2 to some pretty awesome places and tickets to even better events! Entering the sweepstakes is pretty easy and there are 3 ways to go about it. You can twitter about the contest using the hash #bluworld and http://bit.ly/UiiJy url, you can blog about the contest (which I am doing right now) and leaving a comment on their contest page with the url of the post, or simply leave a comment on the contest page stating which prize you would like to win. You can only register 3 times and since I've already done 2 of those, I might as well do that extra one to get the max number of entries.

I'm hoping that I would be lucky enough to score the trip to New York. I've been there a few times, for work related purposes, and I've promised my wife a trip there. What better way to show her New York than during New Year's Eve. It's always a spectacle on TV and I'm sure it's an even better experience live. I'm even looking forward to the helicopter ride that the prize includes. I'm hoping that it would fly by the Statue of Liberty since, believe it not, I have not seen it during my trips to NY.

Check out the BluFrog site to enter for a chance to win 1 of those 5 prizes. I'm already in! Who knows, come January 1st, I'll be posting some pics of me and my wife, hanging out in Time's Square! Later.

Get a Life PETA

Hey there. I try not to post about the news much, since I have readers across the world and I'm sure we're not all watching the same news, but I have to throw in my two cents in this PETA v. President Obama fiasco. For those of you in the dark, US President Obama had a sit down interview in which a fly decided to swarm around his face and land on his hand. Obama, displaying his awesome ninja skills, swatted the fly with his bare hands, killing it. The camera guy went as far as zooming in on the dead fly.

To me, that's pretty damn cool. A president that's just like everybody else. If a fly is bugging you, don't tell me that you just sit or stand there and let it throw up all over your skin. Hell nah, if you're normal, you swat it away, or get a fly swatter and show it who's boss. The president brushed it off his hand and carried on with his conversation like it was just an everyday occurrence. No biggie, right? WRONG!(Depeche Mode status)

PETA had a huge problem with it. It's a freaking fly, PETA! I like your cause; it's righteous, it's noble, but there is nothing noble about complaining over the death of a freaking fly. Like Jimmy Kimmel said in his show, PETA swears the fly was a gift from Ethiopia. C'mon, really PETA. Are there not enough REAL issues involving whales, rhinos, and all kinds of furry friends that you need to make a statement condemning the president over a stupid fly. I mean, what's next? You're going to come barging through every American door to assure that we have garbage lying around to properly feed the flies? Will there be a bon fire out in New York fueled by fly swatters and fly traps? Choose and pick your fights wisely, PETA. If you continue with these BS battles, you're going to lose a lot of credibility and quite frankly, I think your reputation just took a huge blow over this nonsense. Later.

Dinovite - The One Spot Stop for Dog Nutrition

Hey there friends. As many of you, I have quite a few pets at home. We have a rabbit (Shadow), tarantula (Vixin), cat (Jack), and two dogs (Odin and Lucy) and we try our best to have them well nourished and healthy. Well, recently I've noticed that Odin has what many call a hot spot. He's gotten in the habit of scratching it all the time, not giving it the chance to heal up. After going to my local pet store and asking for advice, I was told that a "hot spot" spray would help him from scratching. It worked at first, but now, it came back. After looking around, for a solution, I came across Dinovite.

I was first drawn to the site because it asked the question, "Does your dog itch, scratch, and shed like crazy?" I wouldn't say Odin does it like crazy, but if he's scratching, he has to be itching and I have noticed less hair in that general vicinity so to answer that question, yes, yes, and yes. lol I clicked the solution button and was taken to the solutions center where I was asked a few questions about Odin. Before I knew it, I was looking at a vitamin supplement to help my dog. I was little iffy on it at first, but after reading the ingredients and the description on what each one does, it started to sound pretty good. And the best part is that it's 100% guaranteed to help your pet, so there really isn't anything that you could lose for not trying this out. Another thing that I learned is that a healthy dog does not shed hair, regardless of the breed. Maybe I thought I was giving the best to my dog, but if he's shedding hair, he may be malnourished.

Hmmm... I really need to check this out. If all Dinovite promises is true, they have the best product that you can give to your dog. Odin's about a year and half now while Lucy is still month's away from her first birthday. I need to make sure that they grow up to be healthy dogs and I think that Dinovite is going to make it that much easier to assure that I can. Later.

I'm Not A Famous Blogger Interview


Hey there. I was recently contacted by the crew chief of the I'm Not A Famous Blogger Crew (which I am a member of) and was asked if I was interested in an interview. I jumped on the opportunity for an interview. I don't think I've ever been interviewed before, well, besides for job interviews, but those don't count. lol

Anyways, I thought it would be a great way to provide a little more insight on who is me. For those that are interested to learn a little more about me, the interview is up at the Im Not A Famous Blogger site. The site is set up as a gate way for the members of the crew to get to know each other and the crew chief, BenSpark, is doing an awesome job of putting it all together. I'm only the second to be interviewed so there isn't much in the form of substance at the site, but I'm sure that the content will be increasing once we get more members to play an active role. So check it out, friends, me being interviewed by the crew chief here. Later!
