Mile High City

Guest post written by my buddy Fidel Hernandez

We found out last March that my husband matched in the Mile High city for his residency. We were really excited. He got into the program that he wanted and we both had never lived out West. We had visited and gone skiing before but were excited to set up shop there. We looked and looked for the perfect house. We finally find a great house in Denver that was close to the hospital where he would be working. The house has more of a modern look and feel, but was built really “green”. Our electricity and gas bills are actually much lower than they were when we lived in Georgia. I decided to call Denver Home Security
and get an alarm system for the house, just because my husband works sometimes at night and it makes me feel safer. I love our new little home, after all, it is the first house that we have ever bought together. We haven’t had to do too much to spruce it up, and I think that it is absolutely perfect!

Home Security Tips

Contribution by Saul Martin

There are a lot of things I have learned to do to take care of my family. I am a natural caregiver, but when I became a wife and mother, I became a caregiver on steroids. I look for anyway I can to make sure my family is safe. Benjamin Franklin said it best, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” I am following that advice to the extreme. Today I planted some thorny rose bushes. I feel sorry for anyone that tries to go between them. My husband has also decided to be proactive. He left his old target gun outside and we have started leaving dog collars and leashes around the outside of the house. We even checked out AtlantaHomeSecurity.com and found a system that offers everything we need. The kids have even gotten into the act. They report to me every new person they see walking by the house. If they do not recognize the person’s face, I have to come to the door or window and check them out. It feels good taking a proactive approach.

The Simpsons - The Itchy & Scratchy Movie

Guest post written by my buddy Israel Fowler

On The Simpsons season 4 The Itchy & Scratchy Movie episode stands out as one of the best episodes in the history of The Simpsons. The episode starts off with a parent teacher conference. Bart's teacher explains that he is never throughly punished and instead of being a justice in the supreme court Marge imagines him turning into a male exotic dancer.

While the parents are out Bart destroys his grandfather's false teeth and is sent to bed without dinner, but Homer feeds him anyway. Later on Bart is left in charge of Maggie, but he does not watch her and she steals a car and crashes into the prison freeing several prisoners.

As a punishment Homer says that Bart is not going to be aloud to watch The Itchy & Scratchy Movie ever. It is reviewed as one of the best movies ever and even Lisa agrees. Bart ends up never getting to see the movie as it eventually leaves theaters. The end of the episode shows Homer and Bart 40 years later going to see the movie. It is shown that Bart is a justice in the supreme court.

This was one of the first episodes that showed a scene from the future that became common in several later episodes, such as the one about Lisa's Wedding. The Simpsons can be seen on many networks in syndication on

Construction Woes

Guest written by our friend Sergio Chaney

I’ve worked in construction since I was sixteen years old and my current job as a project supervisor is by far the toughest I’ve ever had in this industry. The guys all look to me to make the final decisions, and sometimes my choice can cost the company thousands of dollars if I’m not careful. I spend a lot of time on my laptop figuring calculations and different set ups for builds, so it’s been really nice to have Clear Wireless Internet Service, which my company sprung for about a year ago. Now I have internet in the truck with me whenever I go onsite for a job so I can quickly look up specs or soil specification! s of a site. My guys like it too since sometimes I let them use the video functions to watch bits of movies on their lunch break. It really boosts morale to have them laughing their heads off for an hour during the middle of the day! I love my job and the responsibility that comes with it!

Piano Lessons

Thanks for the post from Barney Crosby

Getting kids ready for school involves taking piano lessons in my household. During winter break, my kids always participate in a winter recital. This recital involves hours of piano practice, which I think gives the kids good mental stimulation for the second semester of school. I like that their minds are not lazy over winter break, but rather, are in use in a very creative way.

I love to take my kids out when they have their annual piano recital. Before we leave, I make sure to turn on the HOME SECURITY SYSTEMS . This way, I do not have to worry about any crime happening while we are out for a night on the town. After the kids do their recital, we usually go out for ice cream or out to dinner.

My kids love the chance to do something fun after they have invested themselves in something like the recital. My kids feel renewed and motivated to succeed in the rest of the school year after doing their piano recital. I think it is a great activity which gives a boost of confidence to my kids. I love seeing them feel confident in their own abilities and feel that they can independently achieve their success in life. Overall, I think a piano recital is a fabulous way to get kids ready for the rest of school!

Discount Auto Insurance

Do you ever wonder how so many of the commercials on television tell us that we can find affordable car insurance . We hear from lizards and mayhem and cute little clerks that each say that they can provide discount auto insurance . While the commercials are cute, and entertaining, I would like some straightforward answers to my questions and clear and accurate information that would let me investigate the matter for myself.

Taking the time to see all the types of coverage and the prices available, determining the which is best for you and then getting free auto policy quotes on those products you have chosen, can be done online at your own time and pace.

Probate Attorney in Austin

My cousin, David, is 62 and recently suffered a very serious stroke. He is making recovery, and is going through rehab right now. As he lives in Austin and I live south of Houston, I have not seen him since his stroke, but have been in contact with him to express my concern and offer my best wishes

One of the concerns I expressed to Dave's wife is that they get their estate in order. They need to discuss whether or not they want me traditional will or a living trust. I suggested that they go online to check out an Austin estate attorney or a living will lawyer in Austin . I told her that she could probably find all of her answers at one site for an Austin probate lawyer to help her make up her mind what steps need to be taken to ensure that she and the children be provided for as Dave would want.

I'm still pulling for David to make a full recovery, but one way or another; we're all going to need to make sure that our affairs are in order. And it is better to be prepared ahead rather than to leave things in disarray.
