This is a true story. Its not made up. Its real comical too.
I have always liked money. When I was young I thought I was rich when I had lots of quarters and dimes. Even then though I knew it was not just about the amount of “coins” I had but the value of the coins themselves which would add up to a total. (more…)
Hey guys. I wanted to write a bit of comedy. I have not wrote any yet but I did write this for school in 12th grade. I hope you like it. Its just a attempt at comedy while I write something better.
Comment and tell me what you think. (more…)
Its amazing really that soda drinks ever took off like they did. It used to be a simple treat you would get and drink every now and then but now people drink it in some cases more than water itself. This is very very bad for your health. If you think diet is any better your fooling yourself. Diet is wayyyyy worse for you than any regular soda. Sugar is better for you than the poisons they put in diets to sweeten it.(more…)
A story from pc pro states a man stole $50,000 from online payment sites. You might wonder how on earth he managed to steal money from them. If you did not know when you open up a account with about any or maybe all of these online payment sites they will send a range of money from 1 cent to a couple of dollars. This is your to keep for having the account. If I remember correct paypal pays you 1 cent.
This man wrote a script to create thousands of accounts and then he collected his pennies and dollars to collect over $50,000 dollars! He is out on Bail now.
If only people would put their minds to doing real work they would go far.

So a local Eckerds in my state had a going out of business sale. My mom just had to go into town to go to this sale. Signs were all over the building and when you went inside all over the place too. It screamed “SALE” “SALE”…..70% on some or most items. (more…)
So how was your Memorial day? You know its like other holidays…..You have a big meal and you feel fat or like your going to explode. I hope you all ate well and had a good one. Now you can spend the rest of the week burning off those extra calories you ate maybe? Unless you stuck with your regular calorie intake which can be hard when you prepare those special meals you only make on Holidays.

Hello everyone! I hope you all are having a good Memorial day and that you had a great weekend.
For those of you who work regular jobs you get the day off and you got the weekend off. For those like me who work part time on the farm with my family(who works 7 days a week) I have to work today.
A farm is a lot of hard work and you dont get to just tell the cows to take the day off. They would explode. Well not really but it could make them sick. Twice a day milking is a must.
We are going to cook out today. The grill is getting prepared now and so are the patties. I bet they are grilling burgers as I type or will be soon. Don’t eat too much and be safe!

Its amazing the junk ebay does now days. They have got me in a stir over their ridiculously high final value fee’s and the whole feedback system being changed is a bunch of stupid. I was recently promoted to a power seller on eBay meaning I sell at least 1000 worth of stuff each month.
I am no newbie to eBay. My family has been on eBay for years and has seen it go no-where but downhill in some important areas. It used to be you payed so much to list your item and that was it. Then they added a final value fee and took off some of the listing fee’s.
Some would say it could pay off as not everything sells so lower listing fee’s would be better. Well if you sell a lot of stuff or any number of stuff that you know is going to sell for the most part even if it takes 2 times to sell it then you know final value fee’s are not good.
I had a seller misuse the ebay feedback system about a year ago. I bought a phone from him and he sent me TWO broken phones. I had to pay shipping back to him both times and the second time he gave me my money back even though he had a “exchange only” policy. Well I gave him the feedback he deserved which was a neutral. If you can’t sell nothing but duds then you get a neutral regardless if I get my money back.
Well I got a quick NEGATIVE from him. I contacted him and he said to him a neutral or a negative was the same. He quickly said lets mutually remove both feedbacks. I did so not wanting a negative and well it was not fair. I scanned over his feedback and he did the same thing to EVERYONE who bought from him and left a negative or a neutral. This is what ebay needs to cut out of their system. People like him should get banned for junk like that. But instead they just make it worse on the good sellers…..I have 3 negatives all from bad sellers and it being all their fault.
Well ebays newest stunt is also a dumb one. They offer lower final value fee’s if you offer free shipping.
Well if you knew much about ebay you could see how this is not going to save you a dime. Its likely going to cost you more. Think about it, ebay makes nothing on shipping. Its not a part of the final value fee, just the selling total is. If you offer free shipping the items will sell for MORE making ebay MORE money. Not all items sell the same so there is a chance you could save a bit but more than likely you will lose more than you gain. Thanks ebay…..
This one is pretty funny I think. It has received a lot of views which I am glad!
We simply were bored one day and so I thought of something to do. So we
took my car in the field and chased the calves around. They are scared of anything that moves so its pretty funny to watch them and their reactions.
