Santana

I’ve always been a fan of Santana. I’m glad that they are still pumping out such good music and that You Tube has a great selection of their music videos which I can enjoy while I’m spending time on my PC. One of my favorite tunes that they played with Rob Thomas I’ve posted below. Hope you enjoy…………..

All Work & No Play

I’ve heard so many good things about the Myrtle Beach Hotel  - The Horizon at 77th, from numerous people through out the years. If every thing goes right next year I would really like to plan a long weekend at Myrtle Beach. It has been such a long time since I’ve been at a beach, so I think that I’m due at this point. My tax refund check should be enough to do a few things that I’ve been wanting to do and just haven’t had the extra bucks to throw at. All work and no play makes for a grumpy old man.

Using the Internet will make the task of making the Myrtle Beach Accommodations for the trip a much easier one. I’m surprised that travel agents are still in business these days with so many people going online for their arrangements. I’m sure I can get a good deal online if I play my cards right and find some good promotions ahead of time. If The Horizon at 77th doesn’t work out I’m sure that I can find another top notch Myrtle Beach Accommodation, one that offers a nice golf package would be a nice bonus.

Happy Birthday

I can’t believe that my daughter will be turning 26 next week. Before you know it she will be in her 30′s and I’m not sure how I’ll be feeling about that, other than an old man! I’ve all ready picked up a cute and funny birthday card to send to her. It is hard having a birthday in December being so close to Christmas and all, but we have managed to keep the two separate so far, so it’s all good!

Searching Made Easy Via The Internet

I can’t imagine life without the use of the Internet. I don’t know about you, but I have no use for any of the Yellow Pages that inevitably end up at the end of my drive way several times a year, they go straight into the recycling bin without any second thoughts. If I need to locate a business or a person I can simply go online and use any of the sites that can provide this type of information with just a few short key strokes.

What’s really cool is that with the Internet and sites like JustClickLocal.com I’m not limited to just my local area. Whether I need to find something in Miami, FL for my folks, or even some place like Pittsburgh, PA where my younger sister lives, the possibilities are unlimited and I like that. I have a brother who lives close to Charlotte, NC who isn’t hooked up to the Internet (he will forever be stuck in the stone ages) and sometimes I get a call from him asking me to find something online for him. I don’t mind really, it doesn’t take much time or effort on my part to locate something for him, but I really wish that he would realize what he is missing.

Time Flies

Before you know it Christmas will be here. And after that is all said and done it will be New Year’s Eve. Hard to believe that the year 2010 will be upon us. It seems as if time is slipping by faster and faster the older I get. What I wouldn’t give for it to be the 80′s once again. Those were the years by God!
