The 1900 Ocean Apartments in Beautiful Long Beach, CA

Hey there friends.  I've been fortunate enough to live in southern California.  It's always sunny (even when it's not supposed to), there's always something to do, and the beaches are just a short drive away.  When we first moved out, we always searched for two things.  1) is it close by a freeway and 2) is it nice.  While browsing through rentals in Long Beach CA , we stumbled across these beautiful Long Beach apartment

It turns out that it was part a luxury apartment community in Long Beach buy boy was it nice.  They had an awesome scenic view of the beach or the city, walk in closets, marble counter tops, and balconies.  It turns out that the apartments that we were looking at were the 1900 Ocean Apartments.  I was really surprised that they I found them on regular Long Beach listings and not some paid for listings.  But alas, if wasn't for us.  Thought they are extremely nice, we are a family that needed a little more than an apartment.

If you are out and about looking for a place to stay, the 1900 Ocean Apartments are definitely one to check out.  Who wouldn't want to live in a place where "luxury meets the sand"? Later!

RockBand 3 Rocks!

Hey there friends.  I purchased Rock Band 3 this weekend and I must say that I am definitely pleased with the song selection.  Even though there were many songs got us singing, the hits of the night were definitely Bohemian Rhapsody, Freebird, and Break on Through.  Keep an eye out on my review which should hit tomorrow.

I just entered a contest in hopes of scoring a free 12 song downloadable pack of Bon Jovi songs.  Bon Jovi is another personal favorite to play on Rock Band.  My bro and I get "the band together" and just have fun with it.  My bro can't sing for "crap" but he claims that he's not a singer, he's an entertainer so we let him do his thing.  And that's what makes it fun.  lol  If I'm a chosen winner, we'll definitely be out at my place rockin' the night away.  Serious Jovi fans (or those just like to have fun with it) are welcome!  lol  Later!

Titanic in 5 Seconds

Yup, that about sums up the 3 hours that is Titanic, the movie.

Horror Book Club

Guest post written by Kenny Burns

I joke around that I read books like it's my job. I really wish that it was, but I'm an investment banker instead. However, that doesn't keep me from reading as many horror books as I can.

I was telling one of my coworkers that the other day and he was joking when he said that I should start a book club about it. Then I got to thinking and thought it was a great idea! So I'm working on that right now. I was looking up advice on how to start a book club a few weeks ago when I found the site cleartvbundle.com and read through it. Even though I already had an internet service I'm open to change so I'm going to switch over to it.

After I sent out what seemed like a million emails and posted flyers all over the public library, I hosted my first horror book club right before Halloween and there were 20 people who showed up! But the best part was that there were actually people who I didn't know that showed up and everyone seemed really enthusiastic about it too.

Why You Hating on Blondes

A ventriloquist is touring the clubs and makes many stops to entertain the crowds.  He stopped at a small town and figured he'd do the bar scene figuring he'd get more intimate feedback from the crowd.  As he goes through a set of blonde jokes, a blonde arises from her chair and exclaims, "Alright you jerk!  I've had just about enough of you degrading all us blondes.  Why are you hating on blondes?  What makes you think you can stereotype blondes in that way?  Why do you think that a person's physical attributes would have anything to do with what their worth as a human being?  It's guys like you that keep women like me from being respected in the workplace and the community!"

With that, the crowd clapped and cheered for the blonde woman.  The ventriloquist, feeling quite flustered apologized profusely to the blonde woman.  The woman, not having any of it said, "You keep out of this, Mister.  I'm talking directly to the little jerk on your knee.  Not you!"
