Miley Cyrus the famous singer we know as Hannah Montana is making the news today. One of her tour buses flipped over on a Virginia highway, but the singer Miley Cyrus was not on this bus. There were actually 4 vehicles going south for a upcoming concert appearance and only 1 bus was involved in the accident. Miley is said to be near Nashville, Tennessee and is not in Virginia where the bus accident took place. One person on board did lose their life in this horrible bus accident.

Reports are suggesting now that the concert will still go on this weekend. I find that hard to believe and it seems like a quick and irresponsible decision on the people in charge of Miley’s concert. It will take place on Sunday in Greensboro, N.C., and this would probably be around the same time a funeral will take place for one of her workers. The people in Greensboro should boo Miley Cyrus if she does make her concert appearance on Sunday.

We all know that the show must go on for famous entertainers and it seems this is the way Miley Cyrus’s camp is playing it. This is more of a Hollywood belief and not a southern one. People in the South and the true South do care for their friends and people who work with them or for them. I can assure you that Miley Cyrus and her promoters don’t represent the views of Southerners. No way would a true southerner make just a snap decision; when a person has just lost their life. Perhaps it would be best in the long run to do the show and dedicate it to them, but this quick decision was obviously not in the best interest of this person’s family.

The person that lost their life in this bus accident is unknown and this is because the authorities want to tell their family first. How Miley Cyrus’s camp could already make the decision that the show must go on and this person’s family members don’t even know they are dead yet is just classless. Not the way we do things in the South and it’s terrible we can’t have one of our own representing the values we live by each day. If Miley Cyrus and her promoters can’t take the time to shed a tear for their own; then why should we do anything else for them. I suggest an all out ban on Miley Cyrus products, movies, and anything related to the young star. Don’t expect no one to shed a tear for you Miley Cyrus and this goes for your dad Billy Ray Cyrus too; if something horrible ever happens to you down the road. I can assure you that we all go through hardships in our life and don’t expect the support to be there when this comes to you Miley Cyrus and gang!

I do apologize for these behaviors and my thoughts are with the people that lost a loved one today on a Virginia highway.

I love this time of the year and the way sports are set up for the weekends. You can watch NHL Hockey, the NFL, and now basketball has started in the NBA and they show it all on TV. You can watch a lot of games on the weekend if you’re a sports fan. It’s not hard to find a good ball game on the tube and this is my favorite time of the year. One more thing that can make it better is inviting your friends over for a poker game; while you have sports on TV. I feel like I’m in heaven; when a few of my friends come over to play cards and watch sports on television. Sometimes we lose track of the game if things are heating up in cards. It works the other way around if the game on TV gets close; then we start dealing a bit slower.

Now I’m just a casual poker player. I don’t play for big money and I don’t have a Poker Odds Chart memorized in my head. I know some people are good at that and I have one friend that is quick with the odds in poker. He usually gets the better of me in our card games. I’m descent at math, but don’t play cards enough to know which math to use (if that makes sense). If you have trouble getting your friends together to play cards; then you’re force to play poker online. Most of us will run into this problem, due to the fact when we do get older, we get married and have kids and this influences our weekend poker games a lot. If your wife doesn’t like cards or your friends; then be sure to get a high speed connection with your computer; because I think you will be playing a lot of online poker. It’s not all bad and you do have access to more Poker Tools when you play cards online. You just lose your friends having burping contests and seeing which one can eat the most pizza.

I enjoy playing rummy, spades, canasta, and several versions of poker online. My favorite card game is probably spades. I’m picky on the way I like to play and it’s important for me to have a good partner in spades. Another fun card game that I like is cribbage. Have you ever heard of a card game called cribbage before? It’s not too popular and most people don’t know how to play it. I don’t like playing cribbage at home, because it’s too hard keeping up with the score. It’s best to play cribbage online; where the computer can keep your score. It’s a two or four player game, but it’s much better with partners. If you like to play cards for money though, I guess poker is really the only one you can do online and win real money. I would need to rent or buy a few Poker Videos before I started playing for cash online. I don’t trust my current poker skills to win me any money, but it would be nice if I could earn some extra money from playing poker. Do you play poker online for real money? If so, feel free to share some poker tips or poker secrets and I might just give it a try!

Forget the old saying that tries to say that canines or dogs are man’s best friend. We know what men really like and it’s all those cool tech gadgets and things with lights and buttons we can press. This is what men really like and the dog is a distant 2nd when it comes to electronics. There isn’t many men that can say they have owned more dogs than electronic products. This is because our true love in life is electronics and this includes all the boys and men who play the popular gaming consoles. Video gaming is just a small part of our love for electronics. The TV is fun for many different reasons. We can get them very small or get one that is bigger than the living room. Once we have a wide screen or crisp HD TV, we can then plug a variety of other electronic gadgets into our televisions. A DVD player, a VCR, our video games, a video camera, and the list goes on and on. You didn’t really think that the dog was man’s best friend did you? A big TV and a GPS tracking device for the road or for our boats out on the lake is much more important than the family pet. Men don’t have anything against dogs and we don’t even mind the ladies repeating this old fashion phrase. Perhaps at the turn of the 20th century, the dog was man’s best friend. We are now living in the 21st century and I can assure you the dog doesn’t stand a chance with all the modern technology in electronics!

Finding true love can come in many ways. Searching for love online is nothing new and many relationships have came from online dating sites and forums; where people have met, talked, and then met in real life at some point. An online dating website is great for a Pick Up Artist trying to perfect his or her skills with finding that special someone online. PUAForums has created a place online for these individuals looking for a special friend, soul mate, or a new love in their life. This is really a guy’s website, but I can see how women could use this website effectively too.

A Pickup Artist has his challenges online. No way to crack a smile and show those pearly whites or use a facial expression to catch the attention of a lady he’s interested in. When it comes to finding love online, it’s all about the keyboard. You must convey all your thoughts and desires from the heart from your keyboard. This can be hard for those that don’t type well or perhaps have trouble in spelling. There are ways to spruce up your online appearance and this can get you to a starting point. After you do get a conversation started, you will still need to be able to keep up your appearance with intelligent comments and showing your best online personality.  

You can try online dating by just being yourself and see how that goes for you. If you find it doesn’t last long; you will want to find sites that offer a lot of dating advice online. Some of the online advice for dating can really help and move you to that next level in an online relationship. What are your best Pickup Lines now? How far does these normally get you? If your luck hasn’t been good with your current Pick Up Lines; then try to look for some examples of different pick up lines. You will quickly see that different lines work in different ways and results will always be different for different people. If you try hard enough and long enough, you will pick up on your own patterns of lines that work best online and you will have a special online friend before you know it. Online dating can work and we can all find that special love or just a good friend online; when we learn how to present ourselves in a positive light online.

A TV show that has withstood the test of time over the last 7 years has been the Gilmore Girls. It originally came on the WB Network and it’s debut was in 2000. The 7th season was completed in 2007 and I’m not sure if there is an 8th season of the Gilmore Girls or not? I ran across the 6th season of the Gilmore Girls at Buy.com, which they are currently selling for about $25 (cheap). I’m not sure if you’re a fan of the show or not, but I have watched a few episodes here and there. It is a pretty good program and I can understand why so many people like to watch the Gilmore Girls.

Now did you think the Gilmore Girls were sisters? Are you aware of their relationship and how they know each other? If you just tuned in and starting watching the Gilmore Girls, you would think they’re are sisters, neighbors, or just best friends. Actually it is a mother and daughter relationship they have, but it’s not the typical mother and daughter relationship. They do act like they are sisters and it could be a little confusing for someone that hasn’t never seen the show before.

The mother is Lorelai Gilmore who is played by actress Lauren Graham. Alexis Bledel is the one who plays the daughter named Rory on the Gilmore Girls. Rory Gilmore is the main focus and it’s her character that the show revolves around. You probably know this already if you have watched an episode or two of the Gilmore Girls.

I was aware that they did do a 7th season of the show, but I don’t know if they did an 8th season? Perhaps you can reply and let me know if you know the answer to any future seasons of the Gilmore Girls. Most TV shows fail in their first year or have trouble keeping a fan base beyond the original season. If a TV show is able to stay on the air for 3 seasons; then chances are they have something working for them. The Gilmore Girls doing at least 7 seasons shows that the magic between Lorelai and Rory is working and people want to see what this mom and daughter are up to. It is a clean show based on today’s standards. A few adult or grown-up moments do take place as we’re watching Rory grow up, but it’s done in a tasteful and parent approving way. Any parents that let their kids or teens watch the Simpsons or MTV would have no problems with them watching the Gilmore Girls.

So if you wasn’t aware of these two being a mom (Lorelai) and daughter (Rory) now you know. The Gilmore Girls are not sisters, but they do act like sisters or best friends on the show. You can buy the Gilmore Girls season by season online. You should be able to find a good sale on their first 6 seasons. The 7th season might be a little too high to buy right now, but if you don’t mind waiting, you should be able to pick it up pretty cheap in a year or two from now. Don’t forget to let me know if there is a season 8 for the Gilmore Girls.

I was looking at the top 10 searches at Yahoo and noticed that “pumpkin carving patterns” is the number 1 thing being searched right now. I don’t have any cool pumpkin patterns to give you, but I would like to know about your pumpkin carving traditions at your house. Is there any special process on buying your pumpkin for Halloween? It looks like a fun trip for the whole family; if you go to a pumpkin farm to buy your own special pumpkin. Or is the pumpkins in the supermarket just as good?

 

Pumpkin Carving Patterns

Do you see a pumpkin carving pattern in this picture that you like? Someone is very talented with their carving skills to make these pumpkins look so awesome. I’m amazed at how people can create pumpkin designs like the ones you see in this picture. Which pumpkin pattern do you like the best? I like the 4th one from the left on the 1st row (cat with witches hat). I think that one is pretty cool and if you go to the 2nd row in the picture, I like the 2nd one from the left (Frankenstein design). It looks like a kid Frankenstein and it’s a very creative pumpkin design. Just the ability to spell words on some of these pumpkins takes a lot of talent. I think the words look good and it probably takes some time to get the letters just right on the pumpkins that spell words.

 

Halloween will be here next Saturday, so this is really the last weekend to make a trip to the pumpkin farm. Load up the kids sometime this weekend and go find your family’s special pumpkin. When you get home, get everyone involved with the carving and see which family member does the best with their pumpkin. Don’t forget to buy a few candles, so you can give your pumpkin a bit of life. Remember to have fun this Halloween, don’t eat too much candy, and safety always comes first! Happy Halloween!

There are other enhancements like revision hair loss treatments that are in the top 10 as well.

This is particularly true in places like LA or Las Vegas where looks are everything and are part of persons livelihood.  In the land of endless entertainment image is everything. While the lifestyle is not typical across America, you will see some of the most beautifully sculpted bodies anywhere. They are in essence creating an illusion for their customers. The flashing lights, the beautiful show girls, and the ringing of the slot machines create the illusion that you are in a whole other world.

If there was ever two things that went together like peanut butter and jelly, I guess you would have to say Jack Nicholson and the Los Angeles Lakers are like two peas in a pod. Not often do I think about Jack and not think about the guys out in L.A. that sport the purple and gold on the hardwood. Usually when I think of the Lakers or see them playing basketball on TV, it doesn’t take long after my Kobe Bryant thoughts to think about their biggest fan. Jack Nicholson is the biggest Lakers fan there is and he is probably the biggest celebrity sports fan in the world. As popular as he is as a movie star with big movies like Easy Rider, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, and Batman; we also see Jack as a huge NBA fan. I actually wasn’t that familiar with Jack Nicholson movies when I was younger and I knew him as a court side fan of the Los Angeles Lakers first. I knew he was important, but really wasn’t sure why the cameras would always point toward him.

It didn’t take me too long to know who Jack was and what he meant to Hollywood. I was flipping through channels late one night about 20 years ago and saw that a movie was about to come on. It was on TBS or TNT and there really wasn’t anything on TV that I wanted to see that night. Since this movie was just starting (because I hate watching a movie halfway in) I thought I would just leave it on this channel and try to get interested in this movie. The name of the movie was The Shining and I thought it was the greatest. I was glad that I decided to watch it and this is a really good movie. After I saw that the guy from the Lakers game was in it; it actually made me want to watch it more and try to learn why he was so famous. I’m not really sure what people consider as the best Jack Nicholson movie, but I would have to say The Shining from 1980 was the best movie he has ever done. Now he has a long list of good movies and I like them too, I just thought this movie had that little extra and there isn’t no one who could have played this role better than Jack Nicholson.

Have you ever seen The Shining before? This is a must-see picture if you haven’t been lucky enough to find it showing on TV. I really haven’t seen it come on television lately and you may need to order it online. The movie is currently available at Buy.com and they do have it in DVD format. Unless you get lucky and find one on sale at a flea market or yard sale; your best bet is probably to order the movie online. Even though this movie is about 30 years old, it is still a work of art in 2009. I’m sure it will entertain movie watchers as much now as it did back in 1980.

If you haven’t seen it yet or just recently watched The Shining; then please let me know your thoughts about the movie. If you’re reading this blog post Mr. Nicholson; then I really would like to know your thoughts on the Lakers this year. Can they repeat as NBA Champs? Which team from the East do you see playing the Los Angles Lakers in the 2010 Finals?

This holiday you can find custom photo mailers that will make your gifts more special. There is a great selection of templates to choose from to make the most impact for your Christmas or Holiday cards.

It continues to be a system of much controversy in college football with their ranking system. The college football rankings have been a failure for the last 10 years or more and nothing has been changed this year to help it. A big reason why is money. This has nothing to do with a playoff system or the money involved in the bowl games. It’s the money that outside sponsors give these colleges and the NCAA does everything in their power to protect these rich schools. The current system would actually work if everyone would use it properly, but the favoritism to certain teams and football conferences causes us to have teams like Boise State number 5 in the country and the USC Trojans number 7 in the country. How does a team lose to a team that didn’t win 1 game last year and still hold a top 10 position? That’s very easy to explain. The USC football program receives more money than any other school and this money gets them undeserving rankings each year.

The national media doesn’t help and they keep the flames burning strong in Southern California. They can’t understand a team like Florida State that gets beat by a small Florida school, but yet destroys an over ranked BYU team. Yes, the Florida State Seminoles have played in 3 tough games this year and lost 2 of those. All 3 of these games were teams from the state of Florida and the talent level is so much higher in the South compared to the colleges in the West. The USC Trojans would not even be a 500 team in the ACC or SEC. They struggle against the weak PAC 10 teams and blow out a few of their weak opponents. Only quality win this year is against Ohio State and they get ranked too high each year. This is the same Ohio State team that almost went to overtime with Navy this year.

The good news is that the hottest high school players in the country are avoiding USC right now and advisers don’t like the USC future. It’s possible stiff penalties may be handed down soon, since USC got caught giving money to Reggie Bush and will likely miss future bowl games. The lack of recruits will create a more level playing field in the PAC 10 and pretty soon USC will just be a 500 team in a weak football conference. Too bad we don’t get to see ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreet warn the young high school players about this and the dreary futures they may have if they select to make USC their college choice. College players need the bowl games for exposure and the launching pad to a career of playing football games on Sunday. Why risk choosing USC; when you can select from all the other great colleges east of the Mississippi River.

So the mystery continues why we see the rankings so screwed up right now. If the NCAA would take the proper steps to correct the bias votes in college football, we could all see the true standings in college football. Here is the current “TRUE STANDINGS” that everyone should be voting for in the college football polls:

1. Florida

2. Alabama

3. Texas

4. LSU

5. Virginia Tech

6. Cincinnati

7. Miami

8. Houston

9. Penn State

10. TCU

11. Iowa

12. Auburn

13. Mississippi

14. Georgia Tech

15. Wisconsin

16. Oregon

17. Boise State

18. Kansas

19. South Carolina

20. Stanford

21. Boston College

22. UCLA

23. Missouri

24. Oklahoma State

25. USC / BYU / Arkansas / Ohio State / South Florida / Georgia

This is the list of the true standings in college football. It gets a little tricky when you go past 20 teams, so I chose several schools that could have that 25th ranking in the country. I would love to see some teams listed at 25 compete against each other.

USC .vs. Georgia

South Florida .vs. Ohio State

BYU .vs. Arkansas

Now that would be a fair competition and some evenly matched teams in this scenario. The current rankings would have 2 top 10 teams going against lesser opponents and the number 19 team BYU playing against a team that isn’t even ranked. The mystery remains in college football rankings, but the real fans of college football know who the best teams really are and why some teams are ranked so high.

I really love this time of the year as the weather begins to turn colder. We aren’t use to the cold air at first, so staying at home under a warm blanket is a nice treat for someone that has to get out in the winter time. It’s a good thing we have plenty of sports to watch on TV during the fall and winter seasons. We get to watch baseball wind down and the football season has already started and it won’t be much longer for hockey and basketball to start their games on television. If you don’t like sports; then I’m sure you would like to curl up to some good movies this winter. Now is a good time to re-watch all those movies we have in our tv stands and catch up on the new shows coming this fall. All the new episodes of our favorite TV shows come on in the fall and new television programs make their way into our living rooms; during this time of the year. The fall schedule looks really good for TV right now. I’m excited to see some of these new shows. Between the new TV programs and my favorite sports teams in action, I don’t have to go outside and can stay indoors and watch plenty of television.

Tonight is the opening of the new stadium just outside of Dallas, Texas. The owner of the Dallas Cowboys Jerry Jones spared no expense when it came to building this new football stadium for his team and all those Cowboy football fans. The world’s largest TV or projection monitor sits high above the field and this was the center of controversy in the preseason football games in Dallas. The other team’s kickers have been kicking footballs that have hit the huge TV monitor that sits above the 50 yard line. The NFL League did ask Jerry Jones to raise the big screen up another 10 feet, but he refused to do so. Many think he refused because it is impossible to move the huge monitor in any way.

The new Dallas Football Stadium will hold over 100,000 football fans. It is expected there will be about 103,000 for tonight’s first game in the new stadium. If that many fans turn out to see the Dallas Cowboys play at home for the first time this year, they will be a part of history. This is because no other professional football games have ever had that many fans to see their game. Not even a previous Super Bowl event has ever seen 100,000 fans attend and it would appear that history will be made in Dallas, Texas tonight.

The Cowboys won’t have an easy opponent when they break-in their new football stadium. They will have Eli Manning and the New York Giants as the first opponents in the new Cowboy stadium. I’m sure Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys would have liked to get an easier opponent with their first game, but the fans should really make some noise if Dallas does well in week 2 of the NFL season. The NY Giants are a good football team and there aren’t too many NFL teams that could beat them. The Dallas Cowboys do have the talent to match up to anyone in the National Football League, but it remains to be seen if they will get a win on their first night in the new stadium.

 

One of the most popular video games over the last couple of years has been Guitar Hero. This isn’t just a video game that kids love, but the adults love playing Guitar Hero too. There have been several different editions to this popular video game. One of the latest editions features the group Metallicaand I have always been a big fan of Metallica. Normally I think about their drums as the main instrument in this hard rock band from the 1980′s and 1990′s. Now you and all of the other Metallica fans can give their best musical performances on the Guitar Hero Metallica. This game features over 20 guest acts and I’m sure it contains most of the popular Metallica songs too.

You can find a good deal on this game at Buy.com and they do have it in stock right now. You might want to hurry though if you plan to buy the Guitar Hero Metallica. All of these Guitar Hero video games are well-liked and it might not be available for too much longer. Especially when it’s been marked down to a cheap price and it’s not often you find any Guitar Hero games on sale. I think this game would be a great piece to add to any one’s Metallica collection.

List of My Favorite Metallica Songs:

* Enter Sandman

* Nothing Else Matters

* Fade to Black

* One (Best Metallica Video)

* The Unforgiven

* Hero of the Day

* Until It Sleeps

Those are the ones that come to my mind first when I think about all of the great songs they have did over the years. I may be leaving out 1 or 2, but for the most part, these are my favorite Metallica songs. Does your top Metallica songs list look like mine? Feel free to share which songs you like best by the hard rock band Metallica. Also, do you know what your number 1 song by Metallica would be? I’m not sure I could pick just one, but the song called “One” is definitely the best video that has ever been produced by Metallica. Be sure to leave any feedback on the Guitar Hero Metallica game too!

I have many good memories of the card playing days of the past. We could play some junk when it came to me and my friends getting together and playing poker. We never gambled with too much money, but you could lose 50 bucks in a hurry, if you wasn’t careful. I miss those days with the fellas and playing poker. We don’t do it as much; since we are all older now and most of them have new families. I have found that online poker can cure some of those “poker cravings” you might be having. The Everest Poker Review would be a good place to start, if you’re looking for a place to deal a few cards online.
