Why did I not register walmart’s domain name?

Well, I might have been the most failed technology person in the eighties. I had access to register domain names and I did not take advantage of it. I sometimes imagine all that I could have done back then before the internet became the internet. I should have registered the Walmart domain name before any one could. I would be a billionaire now, instead of stuck at this competitive technology firm.

When I graduated from college, I did not really know how big technology was going to change the world. I was happy that I had a job and was just doing things we could not have imagined we could do. For some reason my creative thinking did not align with how technology was turning. When I had access to the internet and web hosting, I could have easily registered so many domain names. If I registered Walmart as a dot com, I know that I would have been paid out a fortune. With that fortune, I would have been retired for twenty years now. I would not be working and competing with these young kids out of college that are ridiculously smarter than I am.

So my mistake at life was not jumping at that opportunity. Now I feel a little sad about it, may be I am also feeling a little burnt out in this industry too. Maybe I should quit my job and do something different. I could be working a stress free job happily I think. I have enough in my savings to think about this.

On Board

My name is Jackie and I am a sailor in the US Navy and I have just started working on a ship.  I have been told that the hull of the ship was constructed by General Steel which is a pretty awesome thing because that makes it unsinkable.  Well I know I might be exaggerating a little when I say that but it is going to be really hard to sink.  The steel hull is so thick that a rock would not be able to penetrate it at all.  I think it would dent it a little but overall the ship would survive. This is really good for me mentally because I have always been scared of drowning which makes it kind of weird that I joined the Navy in the first place.  However, I am ready to get over this fear and get on the open ocean.

My captain is fairly new to this as well and the other guys and I can tell that he is a little nervous.  He demands respect from everyone but sometimes you can tell that he might not be as confident as he lets on.  I want to talk to him one on one so I can tell him how I feel about the water.  I want him to know that I am a little nervous about possibly drowning and see what he thinks.  I am sure he will tell me about the General Steel hull and how the boat is as safe as can be but I just need to talk to someone about it.

The Urgent Care Advantage

If you live in the greater Phoenix area and you get injured or sick, check out one of the urgent cares in Peoria. These clinics will get you in and out much quicker than a standard hospital emergency room will. Any navigation system will pull up the many urgent cares in Peoria, so you won’t have any trouble finding one when you need it. In addition to being faster than the local ER, urgent cares will save you money on your visit as well. Typically insurance companies have less expensive co-pays for these types of facilities.

urgent care PeoriaJust last weekend my daughter got very sick and I wanted her to see a doctor right away. Since it was Saturday our family physician wasn’t in the office. I wasn’t worried though, since right down the street there is an urgent care that the family has used several times before. The doctor and nurses were quite friendly and made my daughter feel as comfortable as they could. They gave her some medicine and did a throat culture to make sure they were dealing with strep throat. Not even an hour later we were on our way to the pharmacy to pick up her prescription. And this was all without an appointment.

As you can see, I highly recommend visiting one of these clinics when you have an urgent, but non-life threatening medical issue. The reasons I listed are probably reason enough for you to start using these facilities. The doctors, nurses, and staff on hand are easily comparable to the local hospital too. You know you will be in good hands when you go to an urgent care clinic.

That is a dumb cat

So I know there are some people that hate cats and everything but I have never been one of those guys buy my girlfriend’s cat is really dumb.  This cat always uses his litter box but then kicks the litter all over the floor and it gets in the carpet.  I know it would be smart to put his litter box on hardwood but our entire apartment is carpeted.  There is no room to but the litter box in the bathroom either.  We have tried over and over again to train this cat so he doesn’t keep making all these mistakes but he will never learn.  I want to get rid of the car but my girlfriend would freak out if that happened and she just wants to call a carpet cleaning company to come and clean up the mess.

I said ok if that is what she wants to do but she is going to pay for it.  I generally like this cat because he is nice but I do not think his bathroom problem is worth keeping him around.  I know that sounds pretty cold but I do not want to spend extra money to clean up after an animal.  I am thinking about asking my girlfriend if she thinks it would be better if the cat stayed at her parents’ house because of all the mess.  I already know the answer but it is worth a shot because I do not want to keep hiring carpet cleaning companies.

Getting the Most from my Nuley

SupplementsProtandim, a new supplement with four patents, is the only one in the world that has shown proof in a human clinical peer-reviewed study for the reduction of the factors of aging by as much as forty per cent. In over twenty studies that were independent and clinical, this supplement has time and time again proven itself in all of the different studies. It has even inspired the development of Nuley, which reduces stress oxidized levels in the human bloodstream. Both supplements are anti-aging, enhancing detoxification, anti-inflammatory and supports antioxidant action. For this reason, stress and aging are inevitably reduced and this includes symptoms such as stress-induced lethargy, lack of energy, sagging skin, depressed mood states and muscle weakness. The main ingredients include Indian Turmeric, Chinese Milk Thistle, Chinese Green Tea, Indian Bacopa and Indian Ashwahanga. The other ingredients of the supplement include plant fiber, stearic acid, silica, modified cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate, croscarmellos sodium and calcium carbonate. These hold the ingredients together when the caplet is pressed. These are the same excipients that other caplets and tablets contain. For those worried about the caffeine content, there is less than four milligrams of coffee as compared to a coffee cup that has one hundred fifty milligrams. Know what you are putting into your body and you will find yourself living a healthier lifestyle immediately. You can do it with a little effort and determination because that is all that really is required in the long haul of things.

How to keep your carpets clean, and prepare for carpet cleaners

upholstery cleaningHave you been looking for a reliable carpet cleaner service and do not know where to start?   Well there are a few things you will need to do before having the professionals come in. Well lucky for you I have put together a list of great tips to help you find the perfect team for all of your carpet and upholstery cleaning needs. So sit back while I illuminate the possibility.

Tip number 1:  Before you vacuum get all of the excess dirt and debris out of the way. If it is big enough to pick up, do so.  This will allow your vacuum to focus on the dirt deep in the carpet.

Tip number 2:  Vacuum regularly, which will help keep the dirt from settling into the carpet fibers.

Tip number 3:   Use mild spotters and avoide cleaning solutions with harsh chemicals with destructive ingredients.

Tip number 4: Expert carpet cleaners know that the residuals must be extracted to make sure the that the carpet stays in great shape.

 Tip number 5:  Never dig or brush the spots.    By doing so you are only blending in the stain into the carpet not removing it .

Tip number 6: Do not leave your carpet  soaked for a long time. This can encourage the growth of fungi, shrinkage, brownouts, and adhesion problems.

Tip number 7:   Use the spot removal and detergents at a minumum rate, and only when needed.   You do not want to overuse these solutions as it may destroy or damage your carpet.

Tip number 8:   Always remove and treat stains right away.  This will make it ten times easier to keep your carpet looking good for the long run.

Asking My Parents for a LED display car stereo

I want to ask my parents if I could get a LED display car stereo system installed in their car. My parents let me use their car since I am of driving age and have my driver’s license.  But since I have been using their car a lot, I think it would be nice to have a good sound system in it.

LED display

The car has the factory made sound system, which is pretty basic. I really love music and I want something better to listen to my music to when I am driving their car. I think maybe they will be for it because it is their car and they are using it too. I thought about this because I was driving in my friend’s parent’s car with my friend. His parent’s car does not have the factory standard stereo system. The music and sound that comes out of those speakers are so much better. The quality is insane. Also, the LED display of their system makes it really easy to use and find the songs that you want to listen to without getting too distracted from driving. After seeing something like this in another car, I think it would be really cool if we got it for this car.

Now I had to convince my parents about it. They actually thought about it for a few days. I was surprised when they finally came back to me. They said if I paid for the new car stereo system I would be able to get it installed. They also said that if I kept great care of the car, the car would be mine when I turned eighteen.

High School Breathalyzer Mayhem

I went to a high school that had a wide swath of individuals attending.  The school was about two thousand people and these kids came from all over the place.  Some of the palces were more rural, while others were in very affluent suburban areas of the city.  As you could probably imagine, this led to some conflicts between students.  There were the usual cliques and the one that I tended to have the biggest aversion to were the cowboys.  Oh the cowboys who came in every day, having not showered and spitting chewing tobacco in the hallways.  Wonderful.  Anyway, there was one story they had I found quite entertaining.  The story was of one of their group who had been pulled over for a suspected drunk driving.  Upon exiting the car, the police officer did the usual field sobriety tests, upon which I assume he failed, but not horribly.  At which point he then had to blow into a breathalyzer.  I’m not sure what happened at this point, but the story goes that when the cop asked him to do so, he replied that he couldn’t because he had just gotten his wisdom teeth out and that blowing hard could pull out the stiches.  Ouch! The cop again asked him and at that point he blew softly into the breathalyzer resulting in a blood alcohol content way below the legal limit.  Surprise.  So apparently, which kind of makes sense, you can limit the amount of air allowed to reach breathalyzers and pass the test.
