Black Friday

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving.  The day that all retailers have huge sales, and the biggest shoppping day of the year.

If the reports about Wal-Mart is true, and they will offer a $398 HP Laptop.... it will be the first time in DECADES that you will find me shopping on the day after Thanksgiving.

This site Rollyo is way cool. It makes sense to be able to search a site or resource that doesn't have site search already implemented. Thanks for pointing out this site, Seth.

adult personals ads dating sites

I've noticed a lot of adult personals ads dating sites online.  Now this has got to make dating easier, in my opinion.  When viewing some of the adult personals sites, I noticed that many offered adult chat, nude photos, and sexy webcam videos.  It would seem that the blind date is a thing of the past.

So here's my question.  Have you ever used an adult personals ads dating site, and hooked up with someone?  Do adult personal ads online really work?

Post your comment, and share your online personals ads experience.

online dating service

Online dating services - do they really work?  I'm sure I'm not the only one that's ever wondered about this.  Yeah, I've read the online testimonials posted on the dating sites, but come on.... that stuff could be just made up fluff.

If you've ever used an online dating service, please post a comment and share your experiences.  Did you have a good experience with online dating or a negative experience with a dating service?  How about the fees associated with your online dating service experience?  Was it worth it?

I believe that there is someone out there for everyone.  Have you ever been at the mall and looked at a not so attractive couple and thought, "Geeze, I hope those two don't have any kids." ??  Yeah, it's not a nice thought, but hey... that's why I believe that for every person, there is a perfect mate out there.

So my question is.... do online dating services work?

direct tv

 

Directv says that all of the channels are 100% digital, picture and sound, including local channels.  It sounds like a good deal really.  But I've heard both positive and negative things about Directv and satellite tv services in general.

According to what I've read:

DIRECTV provides a crystal-clear, 100% digital-quality viewing experience. Digital cable is usually a combination service, with some channels in digital, and many channels in analog.

So what's your take on Directv?  If you currently use Directv, please feel free to post a comment on the pros and cons of subscribing to Directv.

dish network

 

Dish Network is a satellite tv service I am looking into because my cable bill is way high.

From what I've read, with Dish Network, there is no equipment to buy and no network commitment.  According to the Dish Network site, I can get over 60 channels including local channels for about a buck a day.

But the other Satellite tv service gives 120 channels for $10/month more.

I've heard both positive and negative things about Dish Network, and would appreciate any comments from current or past Dish Network subscribers.
