The game was played between the hedges under a light drizzle for most of the day. It was the battle for pride and bragging rights in the state of Georgia. The Georgia Bulldogs hosted the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and it may have just been the best game in the historic match up. These two teams have been going at each other since 1893 and it’s always a good game with the Bulldogs of Athens get together with the Wramblin Wreck from the ATL.

It started off as a route for the home team and the Bulldgos got off to a fast start in front of their home fans which was easily over 90,000+ cheering fans. The 28 to 12 halftime score favored the Bulldogs and it seem Tech would fall short for a 8th straight year. The triple option started to show why it’s been so effective this year and the Yellow Jackets used it exclusively to get back in the game. It was a run away 2nd half for the guys in white and gold and the Bulldogs defense had no answer for the unique offense in the 2nd half. Georgia Tech couldn’t be stopped and when the dust settled between the hedges, the Yellow Jackets had put 45 points on the scoreboard and the Georgia Bulldogs only managed 42 points in their final efforts.

This may have just been the best game ever between Georgia and Georgia Tech. I’m sure the state of Georgia will be buzzing about this one for a long time. So it’s the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets that will have bragging rights for the next 365 days and I can’t wait for these two teams to play each other once again. Mark Richt suffered his first loss to the Yellow Jackets since he has been head coach of the Georgia Bulldogs. On the other side of the field, Paul Johnson now has the streak and he has never lost to the Georgia Bulldogs in his first year as head coach of the Jackets. So be sure to mark this one down on the schedule next year and the rivalry in Georgia is alive and doing well!

The Sears Heroes at Home Wish Registry is a great a great way to donate your money this Christmas. I know charities of all sorts come to mind for the holidays and we all make an extra effort to give during the holiday season. So many great places are available to take your money for feeding the hungry, clothing the poor, and helping those people without a home this winter. I’m glad to see Sears, a big department store with many locations throughout the country, step up this holiday season and lead their own charity campaign. This is a super cause and one that I think will get a lot of support this holiday season and beyond.

The Sears Heroes are the same as our own heroes serving in the military. They are the family members of the brave people serving our country and they need our help. These families are faced with the daily horror stories that we hear on the news each day and they watch this knowing that their loved ones are in harm’s way and wonder if they might be the next horror story making the news. It’s not just the worries that trouble our military families, but the extra pressures of trying to pay the bills and raise the kids while dad or mom is off overseas serving America. It can make the financial situation very difficult at times and with Christmas fast approaching, this is one of those times. Let’s help these people have a great Christmas this year and donate money to this worthy cause Sears has put together. We can be heroes too if we can find it in our hearts and wallets this year; to give a little money to the family members of our brave men and women that won’t be coming home this holiday season. It’s hard to keep things going on the home front when a mom, dad, brother, or sister is not there to help. We can step in for our soldiers this year and help their families out by donating to the Sears Heroes at Home Wish Registry. This is a very worthy cause and a donation to the families of military personnel, is much like a donation or investment into our own country and the values we stand for today. Let’s make this Christmas a very special one to those that really deserve donations and the military families of our country are at the top of the list!

Alex pulls out her native tongue and speaks in spanish to all her You Tube fans. The You Tube Sensation has been entertaining english speaking audiences for a long time now and I guess she felt the need to upload some videos in Spanish. I can’t say for sure what she is talking about, but I’m sure its very entertaining in the typcial Alex fashion.

YouTube Sensation in Spanish

Alex continues to make positive strides in her goal of working in the music industry some day. You can just go back and review the great videos she has sung over the past year from my blog Single Source Writing. A special category has been created to quickly and easily find all of the great videos from the Mexican Teen.

Bravo to Alex! Keep up the great work!

One of the busiest shopping days of the year is amongst us and people will be lining up at stores tomorrow for the big after Thanksgiving Day sales. Shoppers will be facing huge crowds on Friday as they start looking for those Christmas gifts for family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. It can be really fun for some of us to be in the huge crowds and long lines this weekend, but I know others wouldn’t be caught dead in all of the chaos. You don’t have to leave the house to find good deals and you can find super deals online in the comfort of your home. I have found 4 quality gifts from Pexagon that you can order online and not have to worry about the long lines or trying to find a parking place at the mall.

These specials will be good until the end of the year and if you take advantage of them now, you can save 20% off the regular price.

The thumb drives are available in 14 different colors and these start out at $7.99 each. The personalized pens are very affordable and you have 3 unique styles to choose from in a variety of colors and you can find these as low as $1.59 each! Pexagon also has business card flash drives they are offering for discounted prices and these can be found for $15.99 each if bought before the end of the year. The 4th great gift I saw at Pexagon was the wooden USB flash drives that are available in 2GB and 4GB capacities and these were starting for $15.99 too. Four quality gifts shoppers can find online this year and you never have to even leave the house to get them. Make sure you don’t miss these special offers and they will be good for the rest of 2008.

I wonder what was on the mind of Pilgrims when they were on their way to Plymouth Rock. It must have been a scary time for these brave sailors searching for the new world. The world is mostly water and the oceans are so vast, it’s a wonder they made it to America. It was Plymouth Rock that they first struck land at and they quickly learned they were not alone. The natives to this new land was called Indians and they had been in America many years before the white man ever came. The two sides didn’t always see things eye to eye, but they would eventually make peace long enough to have a great party one day. They had a feast that a King would have enjoyed and no man, woman, or child left this dinner party feeling hungry.

That leads us to present day and once again we celebrate the days of life at Plymouth Rock. This is Thanksgiving Day in America and it’s one of our best holidays we have on the calendar. Many families will sit down at the table today just like the Pilgrims and Indians did so long ago and enjoy a meal that would be fit for a king. I believe the most popular item on dinner tables today is the turkey and this is one good tasting bird. I like the white meat the best and you eat that with a few good vegetables, some dressing with giblet gravy and a nice piece of pumpkin or sweet potato pie and it becomes one memborable meal. I hope your family is all together this year and everyone was able to make it to Plymouth Rock to enjoy the company of loved-ones and to chow down on some really great food today. Happy Thanksgiving!

Our pets mean everything to us and they are just like members of the family. It’s always fun to go out and buy things for the pets and they are so many new things to choose from these days. You can easily spend your whole pay check on just picking up things for the dog or cat. You can save some money if you use the Entirely Pets coupon and maybe this will help you afford more items for the pet you’re buying for! I hate making decisions on two things I need but only have the money for one. I hope the coupons for Entirely Pets will help you avoid this situation and you can purchase everything you need for the pets.

I think more consumers will be looking through the newspapers and searching online for more coupons, with our money so tight these days. It doesn’t look like the current economical situation is going to get better anytime soon and we will have a greater need for discount coupons. I think some people just collect and use coupons as a hobby and I have a feeling this hobby is going to grow rapidly in size. There are just certain things we have to buy each week in order to survive and we have to start saving somewhere. It may seem small at first, but over time you can see a big difference, if you make it a habit to use coupons as much as possible. All of us will be buying more things for the holiday season and now would be a good time to see just what coupons and promotional codes you can take advantage of this year. So don’t buy yet and see just what discounts merchants are offering this holiday season!

The technology of today continues to grow and Time Magazine is featuring all the great products that have came out in 2008. It’s really interesting to see some of the tech gadgets that have surfaced this year and 2009 promises to be another big year in the technology area. I think you would still have to say that the television and car are the two best inventions ever, but some of these that came out in 2008, may just challenge the technology of yesterday. People that have computers with internet service has a great invention too and our computers may be the most important technology of today.

The number 1 thing on Time Magazine’s list of top 100 tech gadgets is Hulu. This is a web video invention and it leaves all other competitors in the dust. So much quality and things you can accomplish with Hulu makes it a great choice for the best technology invention for 2008. Second on the list was the Apple IPhone. I haven’t had experience with this product yet, but I’m sure it’s going to be the top cell phone choice of users for a long time to come and it is the “smart phone”. Apple is also responsible for 3 other products that made the top 20! The popular online website Facebook is the 3rd best invention on Time Magazine’s list and I really need to work my way over there and see what all the buzz is about. I have heard of Facebook and I guess it’s really becoming a valuable source for content online. Twitter is another website gaining in popularity and they made the list at number 19.

Other things that caught my eye was Google Maps at number 25, TiVo HD Box at 39, Thunderbird Email from Mozilla at 43, and Meebo Instant Messaging at 94. There was a couple of blogs that made the top 100 list and it’s great to see bloggers getting that type of attention and exposure from Time Magazine. Our world continues to expand daily and technology is leading the way and helping to make our lives easier. I can’t wait to see where we go from here!

It seems there is a bit of a conspiracy uproar in the fast food community. We as consumers are not allowed to see how the cow goes from the farm to our number 1 value meal. I’m not sure what the big secret could be, but if restaurants like McDonalds, Wendys, and Burger King are not giving out this information, it does make one wonder why. Wendys restaurant says they can’t release the information because of the competition. I guess they don’t want other big fast food chains to know that Farmer John in Iowa sells his cows cheaper than Farmer Jake in Oklahoma. Since we live in the age of lawsuits and contracts, I’m sure they are some contracts that get signed between the farmers and fast food restaurants and I’m not buying this reason.

We are the ones that order those happy meals for our kids, the big whopper sandwich from Burger King and the hot chilli from Wendys and they all have ground beef or red meat from cows in them. We have the right to know how these animals are treated on the farm and what they are fed. Many believe these animals are not being treated right and only being fed corn, instead of a more natural meal of grass and other greens growing in the pasteurs. The fast food restaurants don’t want us to know how the animals are being treated, because they know they would lose business if their customers found out about the miserable conditions these cows are being left to deal with. The chicken industry has the same problems too and the chickens aren’t being treated as well as they could be either.

If the big fast food restaurants won’t give up the information on all the steps from the farm to our dinner plates, I think it’s time we make a stand and put them in their place. Until they release step by step accounts and what food and water sources are being given to these animals, I will no longer eat at Wendys, McDonalds, or Burger King. These are the 3 restaurants you should stay away from, until more light can be shed on their butchering practices and what steps they take to insure they are doing what’s right for these poor defenseless cows.

Does 25 dollars sound like a lot of money? For most of us it isn’t a lot, but it’s money we don’t want to throw away either. I often find myself spending 25 dollars just on going out to eat or playing golf with my cousin. That same 25 dollars I can blow in one day can be used to help rebuild the American economy and I can even look for a return on my investment; sounds too good to be true, right?

Rebuilding of America is something that needs to be done now and we have to start some where. 25 dollars is a good starting point and if lots of Americans will start investing this low amount, we can start revitalizing the real estate and construction industries. I know the average Americans are not to blame for our current economic crisis. It’s also not fair that our tax dollars are helping to bail out these companies that got us into trouble in the first place. A band aid is the only thing being done now and the bailouts currently taking place today are nothing more than a band aid. Why should we continue to pump money into industries and companies that are failing? Our economy will survive with the things people need or want to buy and forcing services or products on us tomorrow that we didn’t buy yesterday is the wrong approach. Investing 25 dollars to help jump start things back in the right direction is the way to go and we can all afford this amount of money. Now is not the time to be pointing fingers or picking out companies or our government to blame. Now is the time for average folks like you and I to help get the economy going again and we need the construction and real estate industries to help lead the way. Help make a difference and invest in a socially responsible program!

This is a safe and secure investment that is FDIC insured certificates of deposit. 100% of all the profits will be returned to the investors! Rebuilding of America is underway and now is the time to join and help a worthy cause. Our future does depend on it and we can start today and make a big difference for tomorrow.

I’m not sure how many people will be traveling this Thanksgiving. Usually the airports are the busiest during the Thanksgiving Holidays, but with the economy so bad right now, most people might just stay home this year. My family usually stays at home and my sister’s family comes over to watch football and eat all the great things my mama cooks up. We usually have turkey, ham, dressing, green beans, fried okra, giblet gravy, biscuits, and the typical Thanksgiving fixings. I really like the sweet potato pie for desert and it’s the one I eat most. Our family usually has several deserts on Thanksgiving Day, but the sweet potato pie is my favorite. I wouldn’t mind a little pumpkin pie too and that would hit the spot on Thanksgiving. So our family doesn’t have to worry about travel costs, but I’m sure other families are concerned this year. Please let me know if you plan to travel for Thanksgiving or does the recent economical breakdowns have you and your family staying home this Thanksgiving.

I love to go camping and there is just something about the outdoors that is special. You may think silence doesn’t make a sound, but it actually does. If you stay in the city too long and then get a chance to experience the outdoors, the sound of silence will be very obvious. It’s fun to throw on a pair of tactical pants and grab the fishing rods and camping gear for a weekend in the woods. It’s a chance to bond with nature and it also makes you appreciate the modern conveniences that we get to take advantage of everyday. I have a lot of good memories of going camping and would like to do it again one day. It’s hard for me to leave my computer right now and the bills must get paid. I haven’t been camping recently and I’m sure the next time I go, it will seem like the first time all over again. Staying up all night by a campfire is a great way to waste a night away and there isn’t nothing better tasting than that first meal you have back at home; after you have stayed in the woods a few days. Feel free to share your camping trips or experiences with me and I would love to hear them!

It seems the presidential elections didn’t do much for the markets and they continue to slide today. The DOW had a big points drop on Wednesday, the day after Barack Obama was elected president of the United States. As of right now, the DOW is about 65 points on the negative side and it doesn’t sound like anything is in the near future to help those numbers. The markets acted very well when the words stimulus package got brought up, but it seems the days are growing shorter in 2008 for Americans to expect another check from the government this year. I think it’s a dangerous combination when citizens get a whiff of a check that might be coming and it suddenly gets pushed to the back. I don’t think the markets will recover this year, based on the stimulus checks not going out this year. It seems we all have a lot more to endear and the times are just too uncertain right now, for anybody to be trusting their hard-earned dollars to Wall Street.

If you don’t have a few kids that have tons of candy laying around after their trick or treating adventures, you should be able to find some good sales right now. Stores stock up heavy on the sweet stuff before Halloween, so they won’t run out from the heavy demand that comes from shoppers. Not all stores sell their candy and have more than they normally would. A lot of people won’t need to buy candy for a few weeks, so the demand is really weak right now. The stores don’t want to take a total loss on their supply of candy, so they will discount their items to try and recover some of the profits. This is where the smart buyers come into play and they can really rack up on some cheap candy right now.

This method of buying after holidays can be used for other things too. If you like fireworks and don’t mind when you buy them, buying after the 4th of July is a good time for that. Most firework stores will cut prices after the 4th of July so they can open some space up in their stores. You can buy your fireworks on July 5th or later and shoot them off on New Year’s Eve. You can go to the firework stores in early January and stock up on them for the 4th of July. So you can be a smart consumer in the world of fireworks if you just will buy them 2 times a year. The Christmas decorations and lights work the same way and you can really find good deals on Christmas items on December 26th or later. Just buy them after Christmas and put them away in the basement or attic and you will have all your Christmas stuff for next year. Try to think of other holidays you can do this with and feel free to share them. Please reply back with all the suggestions you can think up, when certain items might be cheaper after their holiday has passed.
