There is a whole world of surfers out there that most of the world doesn’t know about. People everyday come to their computers and will click on symbols, colors, matching numbers or a variety of other things, so they can move on to the next page. This is done through a thing called traffic exchanges. People join traffic exchanges in the hopes of bringing traffic to their websites or adding referrals to whatever program they are promoting. People in many cases just don’t join 1 traffic exchange and surf it for only a few minutes each day. Most will join dozens of traffic exchanges and will stay surfing for hours on the computer so they can build up a lot of credits, so they can assign those credits to their website and this allows other surfers at these traffic exchanges to view their websites too.

It’s amazing at the time people spend clicking on these traffic exchanges. Some will spend 8 hours a day and in some case more time than that to earn those precious traffic exchange credits. Most traffic exchanges are free, but they do offer cheap monthly upgrades that will allow members to earn more credits for each page surfed. Some of the newer traffic exchanges have even went to a format of team surfing and they put teams in competition to win even more credits. You will do better on a traffic exchange like this and if you can keep up on an active team of surfers. Some teams only strive to be active, while other surfing teams will have a theme to their groups. Some will only invite their friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to their team and some teams will be built on a specific program that everyone is trying to promote online. Being on a team gives you the chance to communicate with other people on your team and it’s a great way to share tips and advice on the traffic exchange world and on other ways to market online. If you’re in search of ways to bring extra traffic to your website or just want to make friends online, see if a traffic exchange will cure the craving. Just be careful, it can be addictive clicking at these traffic exchanges and you might just belong to 10 of them before the week is over and be spending the majority of your days and nights surfing the internet.

Well things didn’t go to great in my first pool match I had in my new pool league. I use to shoot pool all the time and I have never had problems with fears or not being relaxed around a pool table. I took about 8 years off from the sport and then got contacted out of the blue to join a pool league. I decided to go for it and I jumped in head first. Not sure if this was wise or not, because when I played my first match, I got beat pretty bad. I had a hard time relaxing and my body was shaking all over. It was a very nervous time for me and with everybody watching me shoot, just made the whole situation more stressful.

I wished I had known about AbsoluteCalm before I played this match. This is a product that could have helped me during my pool game and would have left me in a much better and focused condition; rather than the tensed and nervous condition I was in. It wouldn’t have helped with my pool game and I would have still needed to make shots, but I think under a more relaxed environment, I could have beaten my opponent quite easily. This is a product you can get to help you through the different stressful situations in your life. We all have them from time to time and it’s great to know that a product like Absolute Calm is available to help solve those uncomfortable times we have to face sometime. I am still working hard on my pool game and hopefully I can have all the rust shaken off soon. I have played 3 opponents so far and I have only won 1 time. So I do have my work cut out for me on the things I need to improve on around the pool table.

EXPLODING STARS BIRTHDAY CARD

It’s that one special day we all have and it’s our own personal day; that would be our birthday! Now you can really make someone’s day special if you don’t forget them on their birthday. Sending a special birthday card like the one above is a great way to start. You don’t have to write anything fancy on it, but personalizing a little message inside of it is a great touch! Cards Direct has a ton of birthday cards to choose from and I would recommend starting there first. If you will choose to buy a bulk of birthday cards, that will save you more money that way; then just buying them one at a time. A birthday card these days cost around 4 dollars each, but choosing to buy them at a bulk rate at a place like Cards Direct can make each card less than 2 dollars each! Cards Direct also makes it easy to go through and personalize your birthday cards and they can even get your return address added on to the envelope. It won’t take long to go through a bulk of birthday cards, when you consider all the family members and co-workers you can send cards to. So don’t worry about sending the same birthday card out to the same person, because you will probably be out of cards before a year is out anyways. So go find the birthday cards that you like best and this will get you started in the right direction for that someone special, who has a birthday coming up soon.

Once you have that special birthday card, feel free to send them another gift along with it. It doesn’t have to be anything expensive, but that little something extra shows them that you care and it will help make their birthday seem special. We only get so many birthdays in this lifetime and the more we have that stick out is going to be the ones we remember the most.  You can play a big part in that process, if you will take the time and come up with the right ideas for your friends and family birthdays this year. Give them a day that they will remember for a long time and try to be creative on their birthdays this year!

Who is watching the NBA playoffs right now? Maybe hockey is more your speed and you have been tuning into the NHL playoffs going on also. I know the city of Atlanta and the state of Georgia is on the bandwagon now and rooting for the Atlanta Hawks. They have been given the Boston Celtics fits. I think the biggest thing that has got the Hawks playing good basketball is the lack of respect they have been receiving from the media and the players on the Celtics team. The media never would entertain the thought of the Hawks winning this series and even now they all say that Boston will win this series. If Boston wants to win against Atlanta, they better shut their mouth and play basketball. The more Kevin Garnett walks around with his big mouth open and yelling things, is only giving the young guys for the Hawks motivation to beat them. If Boston would change their demeanor on the court and just act like it’s another basketball game, they would rock the Atlanta Hawks to sleep. Instead they wanted to yell and scream and beat a dead horse in the ground when they were wiping the floor with the Hawks. That has cost them two games in this series and nothing is going to be easy from here on out.

For all you basketball experts that judge teams on paper, you might want to think about the Janet Jackson lyrics right about now “What Have You Done For Me Lately“. The Atlanta Hawks have won the last two games against the Celtics. So Boston might have been the best team in the NBA during the regular season, they are not the best basketball team in this series right now. If Boston wins game 5 things will shift back in their favor, but the young Hawks are growing up and the old Celtics are just getting older. The longer this series goes, the more it will favor the Hawks from Atlanta. Go Hawks!!!

Another sad story coming out of California on Friday and it’s probably related to a shark bite. It seems over the last few years, shark bites are on the rise and it’s becoming a life changing experience for some. Some people are perfectly healthy and fine and they just go out for a short swim or some type of activity in the water and within seconds they come out of it without an arm, leg and sometimes just don’t come out of it at all. That is apparently what happened to one retired veterinarian that was off the coast of California and was probably in water that was deeper than 20 feet. It appears a shark and perhaps a great white shark came after the man and with one bite, took a huge chunk out of the 66 year old man. He did have friends in the area that quickly got to him and dragged him back to shore, but the man just bled to death at a lifeguard shack on the beach.

It really is scary to go out into the oceans these days and it’s really not safe. Some will say that the shark bites are still very few compared to just how many millions are in the oceans everyday. I realize it might be rare to get bit by a shark, but with just one encounter with a shark and your life could be changed forever and that’s saying you escape the situation with your life. I really feel bad for the man in California that lost his life today and I hope his friends and family will be able to cope with this horrible situation the best they can. This attack did occur in water deeper than 20 feet and most swimmers don’t go to depths like that, but shark attacks have occurred right next to the shoreline and any water that is waist deep to an adult is within shark attacking area. I hope many families will take precautions this vacation season and prevent this tragedy from happening to one of their own family members. Let’s don’t let the man out in California die in vain and let’s learn from the mistakes that were made (if any) and see if we can bring a halt to shark attacks on humans. Be sure to swim safe out there in the salt water and try to stay as close as you can to lots of people, if you do go splashing out in the ocean.

The recent riots in Tibet is causing much attention for the Chinese these days. The whole world has their eyes on China as the 2008 Olympics will be held in Beijing this year and China is trying to secure their Olympic interests from protesters in Tibet. A series of YouTube videos was showing some of the things that were going on in China and now the Chinese has ban the popular U.S. based company You Tube. I’m sure millions of people in China were using You Tube to upload their various videos and now the country has cut ties to any participation with Youtube and their citizens.

I’m not sure what the world thinks of this ban yet, but I’m sure a lot of innocent Chinese citizens are being punished because a few users decided to upload the protests in Tibet. I really don’t know how they can just ban a website like that, but I guess Chinese officials thought this was the best move. A lot of pressure is going to be on the Eastern Nation later on in the year to pull off the 2008 Olympics with no hitches. China has taken extreme measures over the last few weeks to insure the security of their nation and for the security of all the Olympic athletes that will be arriving in Beijing later this year. Some athletes have worked their whole lives to try and win a medal in a Olympic Event and now they might have to worry about their safety; while trying to follow their life-long dreams.

So if your in China now and your trying to bring up YouTube on your screen, all your going to get is a blank screen. That is what millions of people are seeing now as they try to bring up YouTube on their computer screens. Other user-generated video carriers in China have not had any of these controversial videos being shown and censorship is very important to the Chinese Government. I’m sure YouTube has seen a dramatic drop in traffic since China has banned YouTube from being shown in China.

Ok, not really. There is a very interesting story that is currently on all the news stations right now. It appears a nuclear power plant has shut down in the sunshine state and is causing many power outages. I think everyone’s first thought to hear about problems with a nuclear power plant was terrorists. It doesn’t appear to be the case in Florida and many think it is just a technical problem right now. I live in Georgia so that news is a big relief for me and I hope everyone in Florida has been made aware of the situation too. It can be hard to get news in your area when the power gets shut off. I have been around for many bad thunderstorms and tornados in the area and I know the helpless feeling of wanting to know what is happening, but you don’t have no television or radio, because the power is out.

It was estimated that as many as 3 million people might have loss power due to this technical problem at the power plant in Florida. My last update from CNN is saying the number is more like 100 to 120 thousand people with loss of power now, so most have got their power again and the situation has improved a lot from just a few hours ago. It looks like Florida did a good job in detecting this problem and getting it straightened out. It is amazing to think any power plant could affect so many people. We just live in a world that’s getting more overcrowded by the day and more people have to rely on fewer resources. This situation in Florida could just be a glimpse into the future when more and more things will occurr that will dramatically affect our day to day lives.

There is a new website that was just released today and I think it will be a big hit. The name of it is Buddy Pond and it’s a chance for members to earn money or advertise their websites at a good rate. Cheap advertising is hard to find these days and it’s great to see a website like Buddy Pond come along and make advertising affordable.

I think most users will like the fact you can earn money from Buddy Pond. You can view other member’s websites and earn a little money each time you do this. I guess depending on how popular this website gets, will determine how many ads will be available each day. The trick to a system like this, is building up a huge downline and earning money from your downline viewing all those websites. Buddy Pond has a great system in place that allow members to earn money and to earn money from all their referrals earning money. This could be a nice little stream of income coming in, if you get out there and help promote this brand new website.

Does anybody have to have a little help in going to sleep at nights? I have been taking something to help me sleep every night for the past few years. So saying that I’m addicted to nightime sleep-aids would be an under statement. I do from time to time try to sleep without the help of anything, but I have really bad dreams and I only stay asleep for like an hour when I do it that way. If there are any doctors reading this, I would like to know if that is a common thing? Do people often only sleep for an hour and have really bad dreams when they don’t take a night time sleep aid, our bodies are use to having?

I usually take something like a Tylenol PM or Benadryl to help me sleep. I’m not really taking the name brand of those products, but the generic brands that Kroger offers for the name brands. They do help me to sleep and I usually will doze off about 90 minutes after taking a couple of night-time sleep pills. If I don’t take anything, then there is a good chance I will see the sunrise in the morning. I hate that feeling when I see the sun come up and I still haven’t gone to sleep for the night. I am a night person and I have had several night time jobs, but I’m ok if I can just get my peepers closed by daylight. It makes me feel better knowing that I went to sleep while it was still dark and then waking up close to noon. If I stay up until daylight, then there’s a good chance I want open my peepers until after noon. That is just too late to get your day started and it makes me feel like I have wasted a day when I wake up after noon time.

I don’t do things to help me at night either. I do have my share of snacks high in sugar and drink plenty of sweet tea and cokes right before bedtime. It’s just the way I have always lived and I don’t think cutting them things out right before bedtime would help much. I would probably just get a headache from the lack of caffeine or sugar. Be sure to share your night time routines with me, if you have trouble sleeping or have found a good way to get sleepy at night. I think I am a borderline case for insomnia or maybe just diabetes from all the bad foods I take in.

The practice of uploading videos online is becoming more popular everyday. I don’t think no one could have realized the impact of this industry and how user generated content could cover up the web. A lot of the popular places you can go to online now has millions of videos to look through and you can see just about anything you want from their users. Now YawpBox might have just taken the online videos we see everyday to a new level. They are creating tv shows that get filmed in Dallas, Texas in front of a live studio audience. This is the first time anybody has ever created a tv show, where the content of the show is all done by users online; that are creating these user generated videos. This is a great opportunity for people to get their 15 minutes of fame and all by just creating a video in the comforts of their home.

I got my 15 minutes of fame last year when I won a big screen television. Not only did I get a big screen television, but I had a cameraman show up at my door while it was being delivered. He filmed me receiving the television and also bobbing for peaches to win some extra cash too! You can still see that video of me doing this on one of the most popular places online to view user generated videos. Now others will be able to get their 15 minutes of fame and they will get to be on a television show! I think this is a great idea by YawpBox and I believe this will gain in popularity.

Lex and Terry will be doing the commentary of just regular people like you or me, doing things in front of a camera. YawpBox is taking this social networking thing to the television screen and I can see this being very big. I love looking at all the videos online of people singing and playing musical instruments. American Idol is a popular tv show that has amateur singers giving it their all in front of millions and millions of people. You can go to a few of these places that host these videos and see thousands and thousands of amateur singers and you will get that American Idol feel. You get to hear some really talented singers online and you get to hear some pretty bad singers, just like American Idol does!

Not trying to encourage anyone to do stunts in front of a camera, but one of the best videos I have seen online was a stunt video. I seen a guy on roller skates, skate off a two story house and into a swimming pool. It was all caught on camera and I have watched that video a few times online. It was amazing that guy didn’t get seriously hurt or paralyzed, but he survived to be a legend on all the popular video places that kids and even the adults are going to these days. So if you want to be the next star on YawpBox, please do so with your humor or talents and not the stupid stunts that some people try to get attention from.

I really think this YawpBox is going to take off. I think it has everything American Idol has and more, because it just doesn’t have to be people singing. American Idol might have their hands tied to singers, while the sky is the limit for YawpBox!

So do you feel that you’re up to the Lex and Terry Challenge? They will give out an assignment each week for people to create videos with a certain topic or theme in mind. Once they give out the assignment from their radio and tv broadcast, you can create a video for them to use. The videos will then be grouped together and you will be able to find them on their section of the page at YawpBox. This sounds like an opportunity for a lot of people to get their 15 minutes of fame from user generated videos online.

Scientists has recently discovered a giant rat in Indonesia. It seems we are always discovering some new species everyday and its usually some type of bug. Now that they have discovered this new rat, it makes you wonder just what else is crawling around the Earth. I don’t think many people will be happy to know that a new rat species is on our planet. Judging by the size of this new rat, I would say the cats wouldn’t even be happy with this. I couldn’t imagine most house cats attacking and killing a rat of this size.

Yeah that’s a pretty big rat!

A rat like that would be a Thanksgiving dinner for a whole neighborhood of cats. Even some of the rat traps you buy in the supermarket couldn’t do any damage to a monster like this. These rats are in Indonesia and hopefully one won’t jump on a ship and travel over here. I think this is one species that North America doesn’t need!

Is any one of these songs your favorite? I love how all the radio stations will play Christmas songs during the holidays. I like a lot of Christmas songs and its hard to just pick one. One that many people don’t talk about is the Hippo Song and that’s a great Christmas song that just doesn’t get played much. It’s a story about a boy wanting a hippopotamus for Christmas and it’s the only thing he wants. The name of the song is called: I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas.

Now since I live in the South, I really like the song by Alabama called: Christmas In Dixie This is a song that has a lot of different U.S. cities in it, such as Fort Payne, Alabama, Jackson, Mississippi, and Charolotte, Carolin (North Carolina). You can also hear New York City, Atlanta, and Chicago in this song by Alabama. It’s a great Christmas song and I look forward to listening to this one each year.

So what’s your favorite Christmas song? Have you ever heard of the Hippo Song or Christmas in Dixie? Did I not list a Christmas song you like? Please be sure to let me know your favorite Christmas songs and any songs that you look forward to hearing each year.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
