He’s Finally Losing Weight

There are many diets and diet pills on the market today. All of them claim to be the “miracle cure” to weight loss, but many of them do not give the results that you expect. A friend of mine recently started using Alli and has seen great results. He has lost about 60 pounds total, so far and he plans to lose about 20 more. He has tried a wide variety of different diets and diet programs such as Herbalife and Weight Watchers, but none of them have worked even half as well as this. I really hope he can get down to the weight he was shooting for.

GPS Unit is a Real Time Saver

I changed jobs a couple of months ago. I was getting tired of how my last job was being managed. Everyone’s hours were always being changed and they were constantly being moved from one department to another. When asking for a raise, nobody ever was able to get one. I have always had a job where I worked inside. My new job involves a lot of driving to different areas, towns and places. Many of the places I was having to drive to were not familiar to me. I was constantly having to read a map, look it up on the internet or ask someone for directions. I, then, decided to buy a portable GPS unit for my truck. It makes it so much easier and faster now. All I have to do now is enter the address I am driving to and it tells me exactly how to get there. I don’t know how I lived this long without a GPS unit in my vehicle.

Small Kitchen LCD TV

I recently purchased a small LCD TV and mounted it in my kitchen. My girlfriend has been watching the heck out of it while she cooks and does dishes and other things in the kitchen. I got the television for a very good price from a local electronics store that was going out of business. I wish I would have picked up a few more things before they closed, but It’s too late now.

Anti-Aging Products

There are a lot of products on the market that boast of having anti-aging agents in them. Do you subscribe to products such as these? Well usually I’m a skeptic, until I decided to try one of the products, particularly an eye serum. I’ve been using it for close to two weeks and I can truly say that I have seen some improvements so far.The lines under my eyes are fading with each day and I am more than pleased about this. Off to research some more anti-aging products.

My New Panasonic PV-GS320 Video Camera

About a week and a half ago I picked up a new video camera from Best Buy. I checked out reviews for about ten different cameras under five hundred bucks and I ended up choosing the Panasonic PV-GS320. It’s a 3CCD video camera and picks up colors like no other video camera I’ve seen for under $500. Circuit City had the GS320 on sale for $369.99, but their warranty price and service is junk. I went to Best Buy and had them do a price match for Circuit City’s price and I got a 4 year warranty from Best Buy for $99. So I got a nice 3CCD video camera, a tall tripod, a carrying case and a 4 year warranty for $540 with tax and all. That’s really the best buy I’ve seen on this camera other than buying it from eBay. The video quality from the camera is even better than I ever expected. I can’t wait until we get some sun light so I can really take it out and see what it’s made of.

New Plasma Cutter

A friend of mine recently added a new plasma cutter to his fabrication shop. He does alot of metal work on cars and other things and he says the new plasma cutter is going to make things alot easier. I still don’t really know much about plasma cutters, but he seemed pretty excited about getting one. I’ll have to see how it works one of these days.

Logo Design and Business Cards Made Easy

This morning while I was sitting at my desk trying to come up with a good looking business card logo and design for a client, I came across a website called LogoYes.com. They have a nice online tool that allows you to create a custom business card and logo design very quickly and easily. You can pick between many colors and fonts for the logo and text and you can also resize the logo and choose an overall business card design to match your business theme or colors. I might have to start cheating and use their tool to create some designs for my own clients.

Here is an example of a design I came up with real quick for this post:

Leather Home Theater Seating

A friend of mine has been working on his home theater room for a while now. He recently finished it off with some leather home theater seating. I’m very jealous of his home theater. He’s got a very nice projector with a pull down screen, nice surround sound speakers mounted on the walls all around the room and now he has some nice seating. I’m going to have to finish my theater room off some day.

Vessel Sinks

I’m thinking about picking up one of those vessel sinks like the ones on FaucetDirect.com for our guest bathroom. They really have a unique look to them and I think it would make a nice little conversation piece when we have guests over. They do cost a little more than a traditional sink, but they look so different and I think it may be worth spending a little extra money for one.

Hear Your Music

I know that you spent really good money on your CD, and that you want to be able to listen to it while you’re working out, but sometimes the machines at the gym are louder than a construction zone. Thankfully, Quiet Headphones has a great selection of noise cancelling headphones and earbuds. With these you can hear the music that keeps you motivated to go that extra mile and not the guy on the treadmill next to you getting ready to have a coronary. It’s the only way I can think of to listen to my music, and once you try it out I’m sure you’ll agree.
