Speed Stick GEAR Deodorant VoxBox Review

Hey there.  There are many deodorants out there on the market.  And let's not kid ourselves, some of the ads and commercials for those deodorants can be quite persuasive.  But you know what... Nothing speaks more than actually trying out the product.  That's why I was pretty excited about receiving the SpeedStick GEAR VoxBox from our good friends at Influenster.  I've seen and heard about it and even caught a commercial or two about its 24 hour protection, but I never got around to trying out a stick.  There's no excuse now!  The Speed Stick GEAR VoxBox provided me with 2 Speed Stick GEAR deodorant with drycore technology.  After switching it out with my regular deodorant stick for about 2 weeks, I can now give you guys some feedback as to how awesome this antiperspirant is.

My Laptop is Plagued by the Black Screen of Death

Oh no!!!  Black Screen of Death!!!

Hey there. Sorry for my lack of posts these past few weeks. My time has been consumed dealing with some personal matters and I've been spending most of my free time focusing on that. Nothing negative, actually, quite positive, but nevertheless, extremely time consuming. And even when I can squeeze out some free time, I can no longer post since my laptop is suffering from the, "Black Screen of Death." Ugh! My machine won't boot up. The windows logo appears, but soon after that, I see a black screen with my mouse curser. That's it. Nothing to click, nothing to escape, keyboard is not responding so I can't get to the task manager or run anything via the command prompt. Nothing but black death!
