Pokies, Slots, and Fruit Machines

I LOVE the UFO bonus on Little Green Men!

Hey there.  You know, I love having a few days off from work.  I had one last week and I enjoyed another one today.  I get to spend some time with the wife and kids and we tend to just relax and have fun.  Today, the wife and I discussed my up and coming birthday.  The big 30!  We were thinking of maybe hitting Las Vegas for my birthday.  That would be awesome.  The wife is a fan of the slots while I'm more into poker.  But that didn't stop us from looking into it.  The funny thing is... when I start looking "into it" I venture off and find quirky facts instead of doing what I'm supposed to do.  lol I guess it's the whole, "oh... shiny" syndrome most men suffer from.  lmao!!!  Here is what I found on slot machines from different countries!

I'm surprised there are some areas with NO internet access!!!

Thanks for the guest post by Donn Schroeder

When my husband and I moved here one of the first things I did was look up satellite internet service in my area. I knew since it was really rural out here we might have trouble finding a provider but it’s actually been easier than I gave it credit for in the first place. I think it’s amazing so many people go without internet at home but I do so much of my shopping online and my personal communication via email I don’t know how I would survive one day without the web. Aside from that I don’t really get cell service out here at my house so I really need to have email to keep in touch with my family and everyone else who might be wondering what I’m up to. I think I’m going to like it here but it is going to take some getting used to being out here in the country and not so much in the city. It’s a different lifestyle, though, and I knew it!

Thoughts on... Paranormal Activity 3

Hey there.  We recently checked out Paranormal Activity 3.  The wife and I have seen the first two and I don't find them as frightening as my wife does.  I remember her being spooked to the point where we needed to sleep with a light on for awhile.  lol  When it comes to horror films, I usually watch them by myself unless I can convince her to watch them with me.  Needing a movie to check out, this was a great candidate for one to watch with the wife and kids.  Yup... the kids.  The film is rated R so you guys might want to check it out first before watching it with the preteens, but there really isn't anything going on but a lot of swear words.  Since this is the third part of the series and the wife already knows what to expect (eerie noises, quick movements, and blank stares at the camera) I wasn't too worried that the film would be a little too much for the family.  If you plan on seeing the film, don't read further.  SPOILERS AHEAD.  But if you've seen it and what to hear my take, read on.  Here are my thoughts on... Paranormal Activity 3.

What Has the Geico Gecko Been up to in Las Vegas?

Hey there.  I love those Geico commercials.  The Gecko has always been good for a good chuckle so when I was given the opportunity to participate in a Geico perk, I had to jump on it.  Yesterday, I received this awesome package in the mail.  One awesome Geico Gecko bobble head doll, an awesome 2 gig gecko flash drive, and some great clues as to what went down on the Gecko's trip to Las Vegas.  The latest Geico Gecko commercial on TV shows the Gecko having a blast in Las Vegas.  Too much fun that he doesn't know what happened to the night before and he's lost the camera/pictures.  Lucky for us, I have a few of those pictures!!!  Let's take a look at some of the pics and see if we can piece his night together.
