Open up to Schlage

If you are not familiar with homes security then you may be wondering what on earth is Schlage?

Well they are a top home security company and they may keep your home and your family safe from home intrusion with their top of the line products.

They are a trusted name and have been producing for over 85 years. A great and solid track record means you can personally trust their products and I would say they are worth looking into.

Bad days.... with pimples....

If I don't look after myself all the time and have a very healthy diet I find that I get pimples.

Worse of all I get little blackheads around my nostrils and think at times that I need blackhead treatment to help get rid of them. Without any treatment they stay for a very long time.... and sadly popping them just prompts more to come... Disgusting I know :).

Do you get this problem?

What is your dream honeymoon?

I have absolutely no idea where I would go for the honeymoon of my dreams!

There are so many amazing places I would love to go in this world. India, Africa, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand.... the list is endless.

But obviously the comfort and pure bliss of the Bahamas or Jamaica would be great.

I would enjoy sitting around eating and drinking exactly what I wanted when i wanted.... it does however have limited appeal and would be best for no more than two weeks.

Where would you go? What would you do?

What would you do with some FREE Postcard Printing?

Have you ever heard of VistaPrint? Well they are famous for providing very low cost and often free printing services to us penny pinchers and even top notch business types.

I have used them in the past with great results and would definitely say that they that they offer a very decent service indeed.

Now if you was to be offered some Postcard Printing for free, what would you do with it?

I would probably print some postcards for one of my blogs or maybe even some personal ones to send home to my friends and family from here in Canada.

Well, guess what..... VistaPrint have given me a coupon code to give out to everyone for 50 Free Oversized Postcards so now whatever you thought about you can do for real.

Here is the code:
PC50 - 50 Free Oversized Postcards

Like I said these free offers are gold and I can't even before the coupon code prices are very affordable for Joe Blogger like you and me.

Have you used them before? How did you find their products?

Free lunch for a year... yum yum!!

I was browsing around as I usually do and this cool little offer caught my eye!

Basically this two min one page survey gives the opportunity to win lunch for a year or take the cash which is pretty damn cool if you ask me.

It's open to US and Canada (not Quebec) residents over 18 and honestly will take a couple of minutes.

So what is there to lose?

What would you eat with lunch for a year. I prob would not ear McDonalds every day!! We have all seen or heard about Supersize me! I would love to take the cash and possibly use it for eating at some cool local restaurants.

Please let me know if you win..... I know I will be gloating about it :)

Can certification from Cisco change your life?

Everybody has heard of Cisco and if you have anything to do with IT then you have heard of Cisco Certification.

Cisco certification is something can almost be essential to advance to the top level jobs within the IT field. Something that most computer savvy workers would aspire to, I am sure.

I have worked most of my working life in Graphic Design, for small to medium companies. In these situations I have often crossed over to basic IT duties including trouble shooting computers and setting up workstations on various networks. Everytime I got involved in such things I would question myself and wonder if I could get an IT position. It could certainly pay more money. Along with these thoughts came thoughts of looking into the training and highly respected certification offered by Cisco.

Cisco offers an innovative training regime for every level of your career. They offer entry level, associate, professional and advanced so that you can climb the ladder to a high powered and high salaried position. every aspect from routing to design is covered and as the industry standard you will be sure that you are learning essential information. The paper gets you the skilled jobs but the knowledge taught will keep you in them and progressing at a great rate.

Maybe one day I will seek a career in IT... and when I do I know I will be looking into Cisco and their certification to help me climb high.

The Kellogg Special K Diet

Kelloggs Special K diet has a claim that you will lose weight eating cereal.... this is a pretty bold claim.

The Special K cereal diet could help you lose 1 inch from your waste in two weeks by controlling your diet and mixing some meals with the healthy Special K cereal.

Here is the basic Kellogg Special K diet:

Meal 1 and 2: Start the day with a bowl of Special K and 2/3 cup of skimmed milk and some fruit.

Meal 3: Eat a normal and third meal.

In Between:

Snack a little throughout the day. Incorporate the Special K snack options available. Keep hydrated with beverages as you normally would.

This diet is simple and if followed I am sure could work out well.

Join Quality health TODAY for your free Special K sample and much more.

Let me know if you try this diet and if it works out for you.

It's Darn Hot in Here!!!

I live in a shared house.... sadly we don't have air conditioning and I can't really do much about that short of moving out!

I won't be here forever though and if I ever end up getting my own place air con will be somewhere near the top of the list for commodities.

One major problem with having devices like air condition installed and maintained in your ome is the cost. It can get very expensive.... However the web has increased commercial competition and now you can get great prices on many air conditioning parts.

Discount A/C Parts has some great prices. Say you are looking for an a/c compressor, I would say look at their prices and compare. I am sure you will be happy.

Their site is nicely laid out, well designed and easy to navigate meaning that you can get cut price A/C parts with ease.

So next time you need a BMW or Mercedes AC compressor or any auto ac parts for that matter you know where to check first.

What is Batman Gotham Knight?

I thought this may have been something fan made but it turns out that Batman Gotham Knight is a project produced by the producers of Batman Begins and the excellent Dark Knight.

Batman Gotham Knight - Official Trailer


Here is the synopsis:

Batman Gotham Knight is a fresh and exciting new entry into the Batman mythos, spinning out of a 40-year history in animation including the Emmy®-winning Batman: The Animated Series, widely considered a pivotal moment in American animation. A cross section of distinguished creators, award winning producers, and acclaimed writers weave six interlocking stories that reveal Bruce Wayne’s journey to Dark Knight, each with stylish art from some of the world’s most revered animation visionaries.

Looks cool, heh?

These boots are made for...... working

One thing I realized when i was looking for boots recently is that they are overpriced in the store.

Maybe it is something to do with the fact that people often use them for work so they are essential or that fact that in the Montreal snow they were selling out very quick.

Like everything if you want a better price it's good to look online. Say you were looking for steel toe boots then a site such as WorkBootsUSA.com.com offers them at a very good price. They carry many styles and offer nationwide delivey so definitely worth checking out.

Being hung over

This morning i was hungover.... still am a little now....

I have been trying to work and things have been slow but finally getting close to wrapping up.

Sadly I have done things wrong today. I have not eaten or showered and still feel bad.

So I must get off to eat very soon and rid this hangover.

What is Mesothelioma?

I had never heard of this sad illness before but I am glad I know know.

Mesothelioma is a type of cancer that can be caused by asbestos. It is a cancer of the membranes that are surrounding many of the vital organs. The membrane itself is known as mesothelium. It secretes a lubricating fluid thats job is to provide easy and fluid movement of the organs within the body. When the membrane known as mesothelium becomes cancerous, it is known as mesothelioma.

When pimples attack!!!

I woke up this morning with a big fat spot on the middle of my fore head.

Sadly I did not have any pimple cream to hand.

I know now that I need to get some pimple cream and make sure that it is on hand for such mornings!

This is only one but sometimes like most people I do break out a little.

Looking for Frugal Feedback!!!

I am almost a month into my new Frugal site, Frugal Zeitgeist and am looking for feedback related to the design and content....

So please take a moment to visit my blog about living in a frugal way and let me know what I can do to make it better.

Any digs, stumbles or comments would be greatly appreciated.

The Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk®

If you know anyone who has been touched by Alzheimer's then you fully understand the severity of this terrible deterioration of a persons brain.

I have seen people slip from the early stages to a stage where my name is no longer easy to recall. It really is sad and luckily we are making progress on discovering treatments and maybe one day a complete cure.

Obviously one of the best ways to help such things progress is to give money or raise money for the associated charities and there are some great events coming up from The Alzheimer's Association.

The Alzheimer's Memory Walk is the biggest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer care, support and research in the USA. It is currently looking for volunteers (of all ages)to help in the ongoing fight against Alzheimer's. Over 600 communities are hosting these walks which are typically 2-3 miles. They are held on a weekend morning in the fall.




Why not check out the walks and see if anything is going on near you. I will be checking this out.

When to give money to Charity?

I am hoping to one day have a blog that earns money purely for charity.

For now I don't quite earn enough to give vast amounts to charity but I really hope that I can get to a certain earning level and then start giving a percentage to various charities each month.

What level that is.... I don't quite know yet. I guess I need to work out an amount over all my bills and then anything above and beyond that should leave my hands.

When do you decide to give to charity?

Do I need skin care?

At my age, 26, I have not been worrying too much about the health of my skin, but I have had people saying to me that if you don't start to look after it now then it will be vert bad when I am older..... obviously this worries me a little!

So maybe it's time for me to look into Skin Care Products?

iDerma is a company that may be able to help me! They offer a range of scientifically advanced skin care products including anti-aging products, moisturizing creams, cleansers and sunscreens, to mineral makeup (I won't be needing the make up :) ) and more.

Horray 6 miles

Finally today I did a 6 mile run.... this isn't new to me but I have not done it for a while and this route has some substantial hills so I am now in pain.

No pain, no gain.... right?

I actually feel great about it and very buzzed.... ask me if I feel the same tomorrow though :)

Hopefully i can get a 4-5 miler in by the end of the week.

Wish me luck.

Stress and blogging - what can we do?

Blogging can be very stressful. Especially if you rely on it as your job. And with life problems piling up on top you have to site back and take a deep breath otherwise the stress could just be too much.

I know I get very stressed and some you do too. Maybe we could all do with a visit to dr stress!

The Stress Institute® is a company that aims to provide a lifestyle solution to our stress management and work / life balance, for corporations, non-profits and individuals, just like me. They were founded in 1997 by an award-winning author by the name of Dr. Kathleen Hall,. She is world renowned as an expert in stress and work-life balance. The Stress Institute is now made up of prominent physicians and professionals in a variety of stress and work/life balance related disciplines. Their programs are of a very high quality and could be worth looking at today.

Dealing with PPC

I am launching a big PPC campaign at the moment and am at the final stage of entering around 70 groups into Yahoo Search Marketing. All I can say is I hope it works as I have been working hard and putting in text all day! Just 26 more groups to go and then daily tweaking to make it work, hopefully!

Have you ever done anything like this? What was your experience and what did you find helped it work?

Listen to Sci Fi

Spending a lot of time working on the computer I find it hard to find the time to detach and read a book. It always feels like I should be on the computer just finishing off some of my mind numbing tasks.... this is where the idea of podcasts and audiobooks interest me.

I love some sci fi. I am not a Trekkie but love things like Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and Red Dwarf.

However when I was given the opportunity to look into the online audio for "Leviathan Chronicles" I was very intrigued.



The first thing that struck m after visiting the site was the shear quality. Immediately I thought "wow this is a high quality production". To be honest I expected a very basic site and a few downloads but you don't get that here. You get an extremely well designed, well laid ot site to navigate and find out about this cool story.

After listening to the first free episode I was impressed. It's tense and feels like it is happening deep under the sea. The sound effects are very atmospheric. I would definitely suggest you go and listen to this now and then sign up to the podcast.

This is idea for listening to on the way to work or during a lunch hour or even whilst at work :).

Let me know what you thought.

Making Bread - Success

Today I made my first loaf of bread and it went surprisingly well :).

So hopefully I will be making more in the coming weeks and when perfect will start to replace bread buying. It is far cheaper and probably much healthier.

Do you make bread, how do you do it? Can you point me to any great loaf recipes?

In Vermont they do what they Want and the same goes for the rest of New England!

I spent much of last Summer in beautiful Vermont ad luckily for me I will be going back for a week or so very soon.

last summer was great. Nights by the pool, cycling downtown, swimming in the pond and generally relaxing.

This time I won't be there are long but still I am sure it will be great fun and we are hoping to go up a mountain and maybe camp. Vermont is amazing.

One of the highlights of last summer was a mini roadtrip through New England and ending in Boston to visit my girlfriends sister at Harvard.

There are so many things to do in Boston and last year we ended up there in the middle of a street festival so we get carried away with the crowds and eating amazing Indian street food.

Hopefully we will get a chance to go back maybe whilst we are visiting Vermont in the new future. We may get a chance to do some more sightseeing and do things like visiting Boston Museum of Fine Arts and other tourist attractions.

If you are planning your next vacation or looking for ideas on what to do? You can sign up for the Trusted Travels eNewsletter (providers of great online travel guides ) and enter to win a $150 iTunes gift card Offer ends July 31st, 2008.

Google Earth and my Running

One great thing about Google Earth is it's ability to track distances. This has become very handy for my running.

Today I just left of out of home and ran... after showing and a rest I decided to use Google Earth to judge how far I had run.

It's ashame you can't see the hill I ran up!! But hey it is great none the less and showed me that I ran 3.97 miles :)

This is pretty advanced and gives me th opportunity to run a timed lap on this route.

Want the cheapest...buy generic

If you are looking for the cheapest of any medication you can always look to the generic versions. For example if you are looking for weight loss then why not purchase generic Phentermine it's definitely cheapest to buy online in this form.

Like I said this works for most known pills and medication. Let me know if you have had luck doing it this way.

You should always have decent luggage...

Have you ever been waiting for your bags at an airport and seen a shoe come round on the conveyor belt... then comes along some clothing, then a few other bits and you realize that a bag has been bashed open somehow.

This must be really and for the owner and my only advice is, get some decent luggage! You can get some decent Delsey luggage. You need something strong, reliable and that can be dragged around with you comfortably.... you don't want that shoe to be yours!

Amazing Joker and Batman Dark Knight speed painting

I found this while looking for stuff on the new Batman movie "The Dark Knight" and I was absolutely in awe of it.

These speed painting artists are unbelievable and it really makes me want to get a graphics tablet and start having a go myself.

I have no idea how good I could do.



This is awesome, isn't it :)

The worst way to Victory Hair!!

Victory Hair is the outcome of two people getting it on...... put it this way. A girl looks at a guy, the guy walks over and delivers "the line". She responds... etc etc etc. Then they end up getting it on and the result is Victory Hair.

Of course you need the right line to even get close to this kind of "victory" and quite frankly we all know how ba some of them are!!

Here are some of the worst I have heard!!

That's a nice dress, it would look great on my floor;
Would you like to go out for a meal sometime? How about Breakfast;
I was looking fr purpose in life, and I think I have just found it.

See, awful!!! What is the worst line you have ever heard?

If you think you are good then why not enter and play the Ultimate Flirting Championship from Extreme Style by VO5.

This game is pretty fun and I would advise you to have a go and see if you could possibly win!!

Knee deep in Wordpress code

I woke up today with a mission,

I needed to finish off and make some wordpress code work. I am no whizz when it comes to code but I am getting better and better at making it work.

Playing around with code often ends up with my site crashing but this is an expected side effect....

wish me luck :)

Hollywood pick up lines....

What is your best / worst Hollywood pick up line?

I love the satirical movies like Anchorman, here are two classics from Will Ferrell's Ron Burgundy.

“I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.”
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)

“I'm storming your castle on my steed, m'lady.”
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)

Victory Hair have a hilarious flirting game on their Extreme Style by VO5 website. I tried out the Ron Bergundy lines in the game and did not do too well :)

The game is actually the Ultimate Flirting Championship and if you play well, you could win.... I don't think you should use lines from satirical comedies but maybe some movie lines would work well.

So what are you going to do to win? Let me know what lines you are going to or have used?

Living in a frugal way

Are you living a frugal way?

I try and live in a frugal way but it is hard. However I am getting better and have started a website to talk about frugal ideas, frugal tips, money saving, recipes, gas and oil savings and much more.

I would like to get feedback and some ideas from anybody who feels they have anything to say so please stop by and get involved.

Almost there..... new site nearly at 100 subscribers

It took me almost a year to get near 100 subscribers on my main blog. However my new blog about Living in a Frugal way is sitting this morning at 98 subscribers and will hopefully grow to over 100 by the end of the day.

It is only 10 days old and I really think that this whole thing happened with a whole lot of luck and not much else.

Flirting... it's not a game it a .... well it's a competition, and you should join in

Are you any good at flirting? It's not something I was ever any good at so very often never tried.

I certainly never tried to be sexy or seductive but obviously have been around friends and their often pitiful attempts at luring the opposite sex.

Serious flirting is pretty silly and if you step outside of the box and look at it it can make you laugh a lot.

Aside from atrocious pick up lines (I have been chasing a star and I finally found it etc etc etc), cheesy looks or attempts to dance in a seductive manor are probably the most obvious forms of flirting.

My favorite situation is when there are a group of guys drinking at a bar. They are very drunk and decide that they like a group of seemingly sober girls nearby. One of the drunken casonova has his beer confidence on so start brushing his har and giving quick slick (to him only!) glances towards the girls.....

His increased attempts at looking like George Clooney cause the girls to giggle at him... he thinks that theya re interested an drunkenly stumbles over with a cheesy pick up line..... then rejection.

Maybe I am sick humored but you have to laugh when this happens!!

Anyway the photo up there..... that is my look. I guess in reality if I have ever been flirting it has been in trying to be funny, which has sometimes failed miserably! However I am in a very content relationship now and I never intentionally flirted when I met her.

The Victory Hair website has this really cool widget and a fantastic game to play right now. It's pretty funy so I suggest you grab this widget and visit the site. You should definitely enter the Ultimate Flirting Championship and see where you end up. I know I would fail miserabley :)

Extreme Style by VO5 sponsors this hilarious flirting fun and I must say if you need to mess up your hair there probably is not a better way. I used this before when I had longer hair and it's great.

A great band.... Soulwax

This is a band that I have had the pleasure to see doing a live set and DJ set (they go under the name of Too Many DJs) and both were awesome. I probably preferred the live instrument version as I am a rock boy at heart.

Anyway they have some other great songs too so if you liked this one I suggest you check out more on YouTube and let me know what you think.

Women could hold the key to life!!

You may be thinking.... yeah well what's new? But I was talking about Stem Cell research and the possibility that cures could be found in menstrual blood. The story here on CNNMoney tells more about this innovative and controversial research



Stem Cell research is a very touchy subject for many as it is effectively playing with the beginnings of life. Personally I am not 100% sure of my position on it right now but for the most part I am a supporter of things that could save people from dying of horrendous disease. The thought that cures for many deadly diseases could be found in women's menstrual blood is very interesting indeed and below you can read the full press release from C'ELLE about this subject.

Let me know your thoughts....

Taking Control: Future Therapies for a Host of Serious Diseases May Be Found in Women's Menstrual Blood

July 07, 2008: 01:28 PM EST


OLDSMAR, Fla., July 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- With today’s hectic lifestyle, where most women are juggling careers, family, relationships, and a host of activities, the idea of possibly facing a serious illness in the future is not something that readily comes to mind -- especially when a woman is in the prime of her life. But what most women don’t know, is that the key to treating a number of possibly life-threatening diseases that she, a parent, a sibling or even her children may face in later years, such as osteoporosis, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, may be found within her own body -- in vital stem cells, which can now be harvested from her own menstrual blood.

Now, thanks to the revolutionary research and technology of C’elle, a service dedicated to providing women with a safe and easy method of collecting and preserving stem cells found in her menstrual fluid each month, even the busiest woman can take control of her future, right in the privacy of her own home. With C’elle’s non-invasive collection process, menstrual cells are processed and cryo-preserved (stored at a very low temperature) for potential cellular therapies that may be used in the future. These self-renewing cells one day may even be used for sports medicine or cosmeceutical treatments, such as anti-aging therapies.

"C’elle enables and empowers a woman to take control of her future health, and possibly of those genetically closest to her, in a fast, painless and stress free way," said Michelle Kay, Marketing and Sales Manager for C’elle. "We live in exciting times, as science and technology are discovering how extremely valuable menstrual blood stem cells really are, and the enormous treatment potential they represent for future therapies. C’elle’s ongoing research is supporting these promising findings."

For more information about C’elle, please call 1-877-892-3553 or visit www.celle.com.

Tired and hungiver but still working....

I got up earlyish today to start working on my blogs.... however I got very drunk last night so am struck with tiredness and a pounding headache!!

It's my own fault, as always, but I am very happy with myself for getting up. It shows that I am committed to my blogs.

What would make you get out of bed early with a hangover?

Glasses are expensive, don't you think?

I have been wearing glasses since my pre teen days and now that I am grown up and need to pay for my own, I am a lot more careful than I was as a kid.

Glasses are expensive, mostly because of the lenses. The frames are not usually cheap either but luckily for us glasses wearers, we have the internet to hand.

zennioptical.com are and online store that sell highly stylish prescription glasses online. They have a huge selection of frames that come with single vision lens, sunsensor (potochromic)lens, tinted suglasses lens, bifocal lens and progressive lens. Zenni Optical say that their low prices come from the fact that they sell their own manufactured frames only, direct to you, with no middlemen and almost no advertising budget.

Frugal Ideas......

So please do visit my site about living a frugal life, FrugalZeitgeist.com.

Please do comment and let me know exactly what you think and where I can improve.

Thanks a bunch :)

Live long and frugal!!

A can of Bud - legal!!!

OK I am obviously not talking about bud beer. I mean a bud that you can smoke. There are a ton of legal smoking products on the market but some are different to others.

I don't smoke myself but many of my friends do and I see no reason why they should not swap tobacco for a natural legal bud every now and then. It will give them a different feeling and get away from the heavily chemical produced commercial cigarettes.

International Oddities are providers of the top legal buds and have a fantastic range of different feelings, tastes and textures for you to choose from all at very reasonable prices.

I really like the concept behind their "can of bud" products and the "Bahli Bubble Bud" has an awesome design. If I was looking at buying one this would be the one I would try first.

Compared to some of their competitors their website is excellently organized and allows you to see highly detailed images and descriptions to help you decide what to try. They are also very competitive in price and in most cases the best prices for the most exotic products.

So if you try these let me know how they were... have fun and relax.

Sunday, and hungover

Happy 4th of July weekend!!!! Well it's almost over now...

I am hungover from going to Montreal's International fireworks festival last night. I drank a lot of beer and had fun but am now paying the consequences.

I have been cutting down on alcohol recently and intend to only have alcohol about once a week. It's part of my frugal ideas that I have been gathering up and hope to start saving a lot of money over the coming months.

I also hope I can get my online earnings back up to a livable level too! I'll still stay frugal if I can though....

Die to the fact that sales are down this year retailers will be giving crazy bargains this weekend to get you to part with your cash. And it may be worth your while.

Afte abusing your poor credit card you may be interested in a balance transfer credit card to put the money on so that you don't incur any interest whilst paying it off.
