I have been digging up worms around the house and putting them in a 5 gallon bucket. I would guess I probably found at least 100 worms. I’m hoping the size of my earthworm collection grows over time. I am looking to go fishing soon and I wanted to have a big supply of worms to go fishing with. Especially if I decide to go bream fishing. It’s pronounced “brim“, but I know the spelling is bream. These are small fish that stay near the shoreline, so they won’t get eat by the bigger fish in the lakes and rivers. Bream are good to eat, if you can catch them big enough. It’s fun to fish for bream, because you can throw out your line and have a bite almost instantly. Bream will attack your bait fast and no patience needed. You might get lucky and attract a big bass; while you’re bream fishing. So be sure you keep a close eye on the fishing pole, if you go bream fishing. I need to save up a few more worms and I plan to go real soon. I feed my worms table scraps. I give them pretty much everything, but I don’t allow no meats or cheeses to get in their dirt. I mainly just used the vegetables and breads that we have left over after dinners to feed them. The food breaks down in the soil and becomes a great source of food for the worms. These worms also help to make the soil rich, so I will probably use my worm dirt to grow some plants in. Don’t ever spend money on worms again for fishing. Just start your own worm bed in something today, so you will have worms on hand when you decide to go fishing.
The Cheapest Gas Stations
Where do you go to fill up? Is there a gas station in your hometown that offers really cheap gas? Or do you have to drive out-of-town to find cheap gas? I know with the mess in the Gulf with the BP oil spill, we will probably see gas prices going up real soon. We normally see a jump in prices this year anyways, since people start taking their summer vacations. The oil companies like to profit off of people taking long trips. I just wonder how high prices will get, since we do have the BP mess in the Gulf of Mexico and the vacation season is upon us. If you have any good suggestions for a cheap gas station, please be sure to pass this information along. I’m sure everyone will want to know which gas stations offer the cheapest gas.
The Games Kids Play Online Today
There are a lot of free kid games online today. I guess I should say kids and teens, because the teens are the biggest majority of players online, that take advantage of these free games you can find on the World Wide Web. There’s no doubt, the Net is full of free online games. We can’t just blame the kids either, for making these games so popular. It’s the adults that strive to play them just as much as our children like to play games on the computer. In fact, the 20′s crowd and early 30′s are becoming the largest group of gamers we see today. The only reason we don’t have more gamers in their 40′s and up playing, is because these ages haven’t learned how to use computers and didn’t really grow up in the video game revolution. I remember going to the arcade with a pocket full of quarters, to play Pac Man. That was one of the best video games ever and it’s still pretty popular today. The strategy games have taken over on the game consoles that people spend money to play games on. While these paid games like the new Alan Wake video game for XBox is far superior to any free online games, you can still find quality games from the computer. Parents and teachers can both use online games to help teach our little ones, how to use the computer. So starting today parents and teachers, I am laying down a challenge to you, to go out and find the free kid games online. Once they get use to using the keyboard and mouse, they can learn more important and other useful things that can be done on the computer.
Finally Got My Gold Pan!
Well I was able to find a good deal online last Friday and decided to purchase a 14″ gold pan from a website. To my surprise, it arrived on Monday and I was happy to finally have my first gold pan ever! I’m not an experienced gold miner by no means. I really never had an interest in panning for gold, even though it is quite common to find small amounts of gold in North Georgia where I live. I haven’t found any of the yellow metal yet, but I will continue to search all over the creeks, rivers, and their banks on my quest for finding some big nuggets of gold. The reason I want to pan for gold now, is due to the prices of gold. It wasn’t too long ago, we saw gold selling for $300 to $500 an ounce. In just the last 3 years, these prices have doubled and the current prices show gold selling for over 1K an ounce! Why isn’t everyone out searching for gold? I know everyone isn’t lucky like me and live in an area rich in gold. I would suggest for these people living in non-gold areas in the U.S., to start investing in gold. You can buy gold bullion and this is a great way to get your feet wet in the current gold craze that is sweeping the country and worldwide too. Analysts don’t see gold staying at the current prices, even though they seem outrageous now. Gold is still poised to go higher and a struggling economy makes gold that much more attractive to buy. Investors can reap some big profits, if gold sees new highs in 2010 (which they’re knocking on the door now). Don’t wait for gold to hit $1500 or $2000 an ounce. You can invest now and the gold you buy will retain a real value; unlike a piece of paper that says you own so many shares of stock in a certain company. I absolutely love the gold and other precious metals market right now and you can benefit too; if you choose to invest in gold bullion.
Affiliate Programs Good for SEO?
One of the keys a website must do, in order to retain good rankings with Google or other ranking services, is to have related content. A niche website works wonders in the SEO game. The more content you can add to a website, that relates to the other content already in place, is the better chance a webmaster has, in moving up the search engine rankings. If you can find one of the big affiliate programs online, that offers many different products to promote, you can actually benefit from it. A webmaster that continues to add content on their site, that relates to the products from a big affiliate company, will be scoring high scores in the related material category. You may see a drop in the PR number; when you first join a big affiliate program online and began posting links that lead to their products. You can get your original pagerank numbers back, if you continue to update your site with fresh content and links pointing to the same sources. A webmaster may just be able to push their site into a new page rank territory, if they stay aggressive with an affiliate company for 1 year or longer. This is a great SEO tip anyone can apply to their website. Not only will you have the chance to gain precious PR numbers from Google, but earn a little extra money on the side for your promotional efforts and earning any extra money online is always nice!
Consumer Outlook for this Summer
What’s on your shopping list this summer? Does the budget call for a few more pairs of shorts or will it just be a nice pair of sunglasses this year? I know the shoe companies that produce flip flops and sandals always love this time of the year. They are able to market their footwear to a large consumer base. These consumers have two feet also, so you know the shoe companies get to “pair” (pun intended) their profits. Yes, we have two eyes too, but a pair of sunglasses is actually only one item. I realize shoe companies don’t just sell customers one shoe. You have to buy both shoes and they won’t give you half price, if you only take one shoe either. Still the advantage goes to the shoe companies, because they are producing two products; compared to the one production item that comes from the companies who make sunglasses. Still both manufactures do well during the summer months; since people going to the beach will have their shades and a pair of beach sandals on. The consumer outlook for sunglasses and shoes are certainly bright this year and no matter how bad the economy gets, these two manufactures will continue to thrive.
Vince Gill Coming to Larry’s Country Diner?
Go Rest High on the Mountain – Vince Gill
Well I haven’t seen anything official, but it would only seem natural that superstar Vince Gill will soon make his debut appearance at the Diner. I know Vince is really active in the Country’s Family Reunions and he seems to cross paths with many of the stars and legends that appear on that CD collection. In a recent episode of Larry’s Country Diner; while paying tribute to one of the legends that is no longer with us, you got to see Vince Gill and it looked like he had the best seat in the house. The person working the camera also made the extra effort to get as many shots of Mr. Gill as possible. In a room that was filled with stars, this tribute video that was shown on Larry’s Country Kitchen, seem to show Vince Gill as the biggest star in the room. I know a lot wouldn’t agree with that and even Vince his self would tell you that he’s a couple of rungs down from some of the big names that were present that day.

Why is Vince Gill wanted or needed for a guest appearance on Larry’s Country Diner? It’s because I have an invite from Renae the Waitress and I would like to save it for a very special edition of Larry’s Country Diner. I will just have to see if there is anyway I can find out the details and book my spot in the audience, for the day that Vince Gill walks into the diner and sings his signature song. Vince Gill was asked if there was any one song that described him or what song would he most want to be remembered by or associated with years from now. It didn’t take him long to reply and he did pick the song, Go Rest High on the Mountain. This is a beautiful song and probably one of the most requested funeral songs for a non-religious song. Vince isn’t the only one who has recorded or sung this song, but he certainly puts a smooth edge on it, like no one else can or hasn’t yet.

So it’s very important for me to find out when this modern day legend of country music steps foot into Larry’s Place. I would certainly do everything in my power, to make Blogger Chris’ debut the same one as Mr. Gill. Larry’s Country Diner is a one-hour program that comes on RFD-TV or the Rural TV channel. If Vince Gill shows up, they might extend the show and add an extra 30 minutes to 1 hour. It would probably be hard to pick which song Vince would sing second at the Diner, but it would be hard to overlook his first big hit When I Call Your Name. He is a member of a very exclusive club that is better known as the Country Music Hall of Fame. Vince Gill was welcomed into their very proud circle back in 2007, so with that status being on his resume, he can pretty much sing whatever he wants.

Hopefully for my sake, Larry and the Gang can get Vince to come in one day and tape a special edition of Larry’s Country Diner. If it was up to my mama, she would just assume to have the Coal Miner’s Daughter walk-in. She is a big fan of Loretta Lynn and it would be a big treat for her to see Loretta sing in person. If you knew of a certain time and date that you would be walking into Larry’s Country Diner; which performer would you most like to see performing? You can pick any performer that is still living and able to perform; who would you select?
Searching for Gold in North Georgia
It’s been amazing over the last few months to see gold prices soaring through the roof. Since gold is selling for about 12 hundred dollars an ounce right now, it’s got me wanting to search for this shinny metal. There have been several places in North Georgia where significant amounts of gold were found. Most people think of gold in North Georgia, they will think of the city of Dahlonega, Georgia. This is where the first gold rush in Georgia started, but wasn’t necessarily the first place gold was found. The Sixes Gold Mines in Canton, Georgia was the first big place that gold was found in the Peach State. I live in the city of Canton and the Sixes Gold Mines is about a 10 minute drive from my house. If gold is that close to my house; then I wonder what’s the chances of finding it in my backyard?
I have never searched for gold on my land and I am curious to pan a little bit to see if I do have gold on my property. I don’t own the mineral rights to my land, so I guess I would have to dig it up without anyone knowing about it. I’m not sure how that works, but I do know gold is hot right now and I am broke, so finding gold sounds like the perfect cure to someone that is lacking wealth in life.
The Franklin Gold Mines in Ball Ground, Georgia is another place where gold was mined from the red clays of North Georgia. These mines are located on the Etowah River and this river seems to be the path for gold in North Georgia. The Etowah River starts in Dahlonega and this is a place where gold is. Down the river several miles is where Ball Ground, Georgia and the Franklin Gold Mines comes into the picture. Just south of Ball Ground is where you find the city of Canton in North Georgia. The Etowah River doesn’t take a direct path to where the Sixes Gold Mines are located, but it is nearby and very close to the area. I’m not sure how far the gold in Dahlonega is from the Sixes Mines in Canton, but I would guess about 50 miles or less. I think it’s safe to assume that this 50 miles of river tracking through the hills and mountains of North Georgia as it winds it’s way down to Canton is loaded with gold.
Not only do you have the natural gold that exists in North Georgia, but there are several Indian legends that are around these parts. Several stories that link the days right before the Trail of Tears started in North Georgia that hints toward hidden gold. Apparently the Indians got word that their removal was coming and in preparation before they left, they came together to bury their valuables in secret locations and gold was a valued possession of the Cherokees in North Georgia. Some believe that the Indians in modern times came back from Oklahoma where the Trail of Tears ended and returned to fetch the gold they had left hidden. There are others that feel it has never been recovered or only a portion of the hidden gold left by the Indians has been retrieved.
As someone that is getting ready to go on a gold-finding mission, it’s hard to come up with a clear game plan. Do you seek the gold that is found heavily along the Etowah River? Or do you search for all the clues left by the Indians and see if you can find the secret caves or burial sites for the gold they left behind?
I won’t discard the legends that exist in my area of North Georgia concerning the gold the Indians left behind before they took that infamous march down the Trail of Tears. I believe I will keep these details in the back of my mind and start down the natural route first. If the Indians found gold and the historic places like Dahlonega and the Franklin and Sixes Gold Mines had gold at one time; then there still must be gold in them thar hills.
Thanks to technology I should be equipped with better tools for finding gold than these old time miners in North Georgia. A good metal detector, sluice boxes, and a dredge to suck up the gold on the bottoms of creeks and rivers, should help me to find gold at a faster rate, than those that walked my footsteps in the past.
If you live in North Georgia and own land with a creek or located near the Etowah River, then I would love to have permission to look for gold on your property. I would be willing to share any finds that I discover on your land. I think getting permission to look for gold in certain areas, will be my biggest hurdle that faces me right now. Hopefully I can find a few contacts online and get a team assembled; so I can begin a big search for gold in the beautiful areas of North Georgia.

Business Back to Normal at Sea World
Interesting that Sea World in Orlando, Florida will go back to business as usual so quick. It was just last week when a killer whale named Shamu took the life of its trainer. This wasn’t just a typical accident either. It appears the whale grabbed the trainer by the waist; then shook its head back and forth, before taking her under the water. This was a pretty salvage attack from an animal that is not normally known for this.
Later news has came out now; which shows this wasn’t the first time Shamu had killed someone before. I didn’t manage to get all the details of the other accidents that took place in Sea World, but surely none of them can compare to this latest attack. Seeing that SeaWorld plans to resume business does make one think twice about the motives of this theme park in Florida. It is one of the most popular theme parks in Central Florida. After Disney World, it may just be the 2nd most visited theme park in the area.
Shamu did something that shocked us all. An investigation and taking some time to figure out what went wrong and making sure that the public and employees will be safe; while keeping these very large animals in captivity should be looked at. I’m not sure if the officials in Florida realize just how big this story is and how all eyes are on the theme park right now. Judging from a distance, it would appear SeaWorld has no sympathy for the friends and family of this trainer that lost her life to one of their animals last week. I don’t think I will be planning a trip to this theme park and I will be curious to know how many others visit it this summer. We may be hearing others speak up in the near future about the conduct of Sea World and if they did handle this horrific accident appropriately. Do you or your family plan a visit to Central Florida this year? Will Sea World be on your agenda; after hearing how a killer whale attacked and killed its trainer?
Tony’s New Pizza for Dinner Tonight
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Tony’s Pizza. All opinions are 100% mine.
Tony’s Old-Style Pepperoni Pizza

Have you or anyone in your family tried one of the great pizzas you can find in your supermarket that is under the Tony’s Brand of pizza? If you haven’t tried one of Tony’s pizza’s lately; then you owe it to yourself to try one of their new Crispy Crust Pizzas. Tony has made a few slight improvements on his already great pizza and this has been one change for the better. Tony’s Pizza is not only available in certain areas like some of the big pizza chain stores are. Even the typical places that deliver pizza will only deliver in a limited area and you still have to be lucky enough to live within a certain distance to get fresh, hot pizza delivered to your door at home. The great thing about Tony’s Pizza is that there is a good chance your local supermarket carries their line of pizza products, so you can pick up a few of these the next time you go grocery shopping. Then the next time you or your family gets the craving for pizza, you can stick one of Tony’s Pizzas in the oven and have it ready to eat long before the delivery guys would get to your house.
Tony’s New Crispy Crust Pepperoni Pizza

One thing you may notice between the old-style Tony’s Pizza and the new Crispy Crust is that the peperoni’s are not the typical round-shape like you see on many pepperoni pizzas. The small chunks of pepperoni is great for the kids and a less chance they will get choked on these smaller bite-size pepperoni pizzas. I have two very good taste testers at home with my twin 5 year-old nephews and they really like the new Tony’s Pizza and it comes in other varieties than just the pepperoni pizza version.

You may have seen one of the TV commercials or a competitor on TV where they have a famous slogan “It’s Not Delivery“; well you don’t have to tell me twice. Those that have tried that pizza brand probably know what I am talking about. Their pizza isn’t even close to the delicious tasting pizza’s Tony produces for his loyal customers.
For you guys that like to call up the boys and get a a lot of friends to show up and watch the big game on the tube. Why don’t you treat them with a little something different next time. You can go pick up a half of dozen of these Tony’s Pizzas and serve them for a much more affordable price than what it would cost you and your friends to order take out. They will love this pizza just as much as they would like the pizza that gets delivered to your door and you don’t have to leave a tip; when you throw a couple of Tony’s New Crispy Crust Pizzas in the oven.
I was recently lucky enough to get a few free coupons to try Tony’s new brand of pizzas and for someone that is picky when it comes to store bought pizza, I do have to give Tony passing marks for his new-line of pizza products. I would like to personally thank Tony and his staff for giving me those coupons and letting me give it a free taste test. I would like to encourage my readers to look for Tony’s brand of pizzas in their supermarket and give it a try for yourself. Please make sure it has the Tony label on it and don’t just pick up any pizza you see at your local supermarket.
