Hey there. You know what the problem with printers are? The ink. Yup, the ink. You can get a pretty good printer for about $40 now a days but high ink cost can definitely make it a high priced investment. I remember having a printer where the inkjet cartridges were more than the printer price itself. And this was just the standard black ink! And it sucks because I've been contemplating going back to school but knowing that there is heavy duty printing involved, I think twice about the costs. There are definitely high quality printers out there, it's just a mission to find printer ink in the cheap.
And it's not so much school work that worries me when it comes to printing. We have thousands of pictures that need to be printed. Going to our local store can cost a pretty penny when printing pictures from SD cards. So the printer I get will definitely be one that would have great picture quality printing. And if I'm going to print thousands of pictures, I'm definitely going to need some cheap ink.
So what do you guys recommend? Is there a quality printer that you guys use and how much do you usually end up spending on ink cartridges? Or what should I expect to pay in ink per year? Having a family, I'm sure that video game cheats, coloring pages, recipes, guitar tabs, etc. etc. would be printed on a constant basis so I assume that my ink usage will be a little on the higher side. You thoughts, my friends. Later!

What's Your Website Worth?
Hey there. Have you ever wondered how much your website is worth? You hear big numbers from some of the more popular sites but for us small time blogging folk, how would we be able to determine how much our small piece of internet real estate is worth? I went on a mission to find out how much metallman.com is worth and let's check out some of the numbers.
Website Outlook
Estimeted worth of metallman.com is USD 13074.3 according to websiteoutlook (Not so sure how much faith I can put in a site that misspells Estimated)
Urlappraisal.net
Bizinformation.org
Metallman.com Valuation $465,795.6 (Whoa! Check please! Wait... Paypal only!!!)
Webarbiter.com
Estimated value of the metallman.com is 73912,5 USD (And apparently that's the equivalent of 21 camels! lmao!)
Well... as you can see, if you check the wrong the site you'll think that your site is worth a fortune! It's tough to gauge how much the site is really worth. Especially when it comes time to sell your domain. I wouldn't sell my domain (unless bizinformation sends that half a million to my paypal account right away!). Once you start blogging and have been doing it for several years, it's more of a way of life than a hobby.
So, tell me friends. What sites do you use to check up on your stats, worth, and visitors? I'm curious to see what sites are accurate and which are not. As much as I would LOVE to believe that this site is worth half a mil, I know it's not. I would love to be able to find that one site that would be able to accurately gauge where I stand. Where I would know, just for the sake of knowing, how much I could potentially sell this site if push comes to shove. Let me hear it friends. Later!

How Buffalo Wings are Made (per Maxim)
Hey there. My wife sent this to me via text. lol This was in the Maxim magazine that we received in the mail. I knew that there had to be a secret to the making of buffalo wings but who knew that dragons, wizards, and beautiful virgins were involved! Damn is this hilarious. Just another reason why I love Maxim magazine. Enjoy!
