I’ve never really been much of a baseball fan. Football is more my style. But when I saw this on You Tube it really made an impression on me, so much that of course I had to post it here. God I love You Tube. Hope you enjoy it as well!

Well I finally got my taxes done today. I took off a few hours early from work and stopped by on the way home. It didn’t take too awfully long and I’m happy to say that I am getting back a nice chunk of change this year. It was well worth keeping all the receipts and all the other paperwork that makes all the deductions worth while. So now I have to figure out the best way to utilize this new found cash that I’ll be getting in a few weeks since I filed electronically.

I’m first going to check out some of the Myrtle Beach Golf Vacations that I’ve seen advertised at ttimesonly.com. I really enjoy golf and just never get much extra time to play these past few years. I googled “Myrtle Beach Golf” and found this great site that offers great prices for hotels and golf packages. It is pretty user friendly and seems to be a one stop shop site for Golf Packages Myrtle Beach style and is giving me something to look forward to.

This has been one heck of a long hard winter, everyone is ready for spring. Everyone but the snow removal companies that is. They have been making big bucks these past few months, that’s for sure. And we are looking at getting another round come Monday. Anyway looking at these Myrtle Beach Golf Packages this evening has really given me something to look forward to, giving me a light that is needed to see at the end of this long dark tunnel called winter.

Shopping online is the only way to go, as far as I’m concerned. I can’t wait until they bring online grocery shopping to my area. Some of the food stores are offering it, but there is service charge involved and I don’t like service charges. The whole point of shopping online is to save money, so to have some fee attached isn’t my idea of saving money. So until then I’ll keep trudging to the grocery store to make my food purchases, at least I don’t live way out in the boonies and most of the grocery stores are only a few minutes away in good weather and good traffic patterns.

If you have access to the Internet and a charge or debit card you can take advantage of some really good deals that are being offered online. One site that I frequent quite often is become.com, they have a ton of good buys located there and are very user friendly.

I’ve been looking for a nice leather backpack purse for when the weather breaks and I find myself more and more on the back of a Harley. Carrying a purse while on a bike can be a real drag, but I find the need for most of what I carry in my purse so having the convenience of putting everything into a backpack makes things a whole lot easier all the way around. So while looking for the perfect backpack I ran across a nice looking cropped denim jacket that would look great while on the back of the many Harley’s that I find myself riding each season.

Wearing flip flops is a major no no when riding a motorcycle but I do love that they have come back in style these past few years and I found the cutest pair teva flip flops that I just have to have and have placed an order today while in the shopping mood and sitting in front of my laptop.

Blue just so happens to be my favorite color and these are just too cute to pass up.

OK, spring is right around the corner and I’m more than ready to start getting ready for the outdoor activities that I’ve been neglecting due to the nasty weather that this winter has brought us. I’m looking online at getting some new Sneakers or possibly a pair of quality Running Shoes and start running and exercising. I’m not getting any younger and I really need to step up to the plate and start taking my health a bit more seriously. The big “Five O” is fast approaching and it’s up to me to keep myself in the best shape possible.

I have a bike that I have been meaning to take down and out of the garage, but haven’t managed yet in the last 2 years, sigh……I even had a brand new pair of Bike Shoes  and Running Shoes that were bought and given to me as a Christmas present a few years back and they are still in the box in my closet. I love Shoes and have a closet full at my disposal and I’m always on the look out for new ones to adorn my feet with! I’ve always loved shoes, used to drive me mother crazy. When I was married I used to get all kinds of crap from my husband about my love affair with shoes.

Anyway online shoe shopping is a great way to find some wonderful variety of shoes. If they don’t fit or look right I just return them and move on.  Shopwiki.com is a great site to use in order to find all types of products, I use them quite a lot. Online shopping is the only way to go for me these days and is becoming more popular each and every day all around the world, amazing isn’t it?

I have a few friends that ride Harley’s. I love it when I get a good biker joke from any of them via email. This was a good one that I just got today.

A Harley Davidson motorcycle rider is riding by the zoo in Washington , DC when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion’s cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.

The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl, and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly. A reporter has watched the whole event.

The reporter addressing the Harley rider says, ‘Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I’ve seen a man do in my whole life.’ The Harley rider replies, ‘Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger and acted as I felt right.’

The reporter says, ‘Well, I’ll make sure this won’t go unnoticed. I’m a journalist, you know, and tomorrow’s paper will have this story on the front page… So, what do you do for a living and what political affiliation do you have?’

The biker replies, ‘I’m a U.S. . Marine and a Republican.’ The journalist leaves. The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front page:

U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH.

That pretty much sums up the media’s approach to the news these days.
