I have had the opportunity to spend a good portion of my life on the many waters around this world and have seen too many close calls and accidents that happened, and the majority of the operators could plainly been seen drinking some type of alcoholic beverage, beer being the number one choice. Drinking and then driving anything can and have causes serious incidents and accidents and the number of people doing this is growing larger every year it seems.It wouldn’t surprise me to see in that in the not to near future that some type of permit may be necessary to operate all of the different types of boats.
As much as I have some strong opinions about Big Brother and all, I am starting to think that licensing for this serious issue might be a good idea. Of course I’d have to see all that it could require and all that. Something to check into online sometime in the near future.

I think there is nothing as silly looking as an old man driving a sports car. The weather was wonderful today, and while I was driving home from running errands I saw an old man driving a convertible sports car with the top down. I wanted to shout at him “You look so silly, old man!”
But, that would be very rude of me! So I just shook my head and kept quiet!
Whenever I see an old man driving a sports car like that, it makes me think that he is trying desperately to feel young and sexy once again. I guess there is nothing wrong with that, but I think it makes them look desperate and sad. Like old women in mini-skirts and plunging necklines look desperate and sad!

My brother-in-law is a fairly good golfer, quite a bit better at it then I am, but I do love to play on occasion as it sure does relax me and I always have a good time when I’m out on a course. A couple of us have been thinking about going to Las Vegas and have decided that since we were going to be there anyway perhaps we could get in a few rounds of Las Vegas golf. So we decided to look up what kind of Affordable golf packages we might be qualified for.
I must admit we were a bit out of luck until my buddy found this website that gave us the information we needed to make reservations directly with the golf course of our choosing, and they even have the golf pros that can aid you should you need one, (personally, I need one because my long game is a bit shoddy to say the least). Anyway this site allows you to book on-line at just about every golf course I’ve ever heard of anyone wanting to play a round or two at. You can book a room, set up a tee-off time, maybe an appointment with a golf-pro to help you out a little on your swing or something, and as you’re dealing directly with the course people themselves. No middleman, in other words, a lot less money you need to dish out! Man you can even make your own style of a Golf Package Vacation! And the site shows you photos of the courses with detailed course information as well. Plus they show you what is available along the lines of nearby accommodations, with photos and availability by date information. I’m telling you, if you want to play golf, you’ve got to check this site out.

For a few months last year, my friend was hinting the fact that she wanted to go somewhere fun and exciting that we haven’t gone before. So I searched around on the Internet for some idea’s, and came across a few things that we both would enjoy. I came across National Rodeo Finals tickets, and we attended the 49th Wrangler National Finals Rodeo that began in Las Vegas last December, fans no doubt looked through the list of contestants to find their favorites to see who the best riders were for the gold buckles. It was no secret that steer wrestling would be one of the most awesome contested events, with the world title coming down to the wire and virtually all of the Top 15 having a shot at glory. Our favorite was Jason Miller for Steer wrestling which shot towards the top with a 4.8 in round 10 and on average 42.70/10, which is quite impressing, I might say.We enjoyed it so much to where we now want to attend Rodeo’s worldwide each year. Just check out one of their websites at Prorodeo.com and I guarantee you won’t be disappointed, you’ll have a great time and you’ll come out with so many great memories to keep close for the rest of your life that you can share with everyone.

Have you ever had a tarot reading? Last time we were in New Orleans we came across an older lady on the sidewalk in front of Jackson Square, with a lap table and deck of tarot cards. She only asked $10 for a reading, so I gave it a whirl.The positions of the 9-card life cycle tarot card spread take advantage of the properties of the magic number ‘9.’ That’s what I chose for her reading.
A reading of the 9-card spread provides a view of your past, present, and future at three depths
the body (unconscious),
mind (personality, ego), and
soul (higher power).
It was fun to watch the whole presentation and added some extra magical qualities to our evening in the French Quarter.
