Welcome to Something for Nothing

Honestly, I don’t think that I will ever get tired of talking about VOIP. I think that it has got to be one of the best inventions ever created. Let me tell you just ONE (of the many) reasons why VoIP is great. I called my grandmother the other day to ask her a simple question. Well, after I asked her the question, she pretty much ended my call right away. I found out later that she was afraid to talk to me on the phone because she’s still in the mindset that long distance calls are expensive.

VoIP has changed all of that for me. Long distance doesn’t cost any different for me now that I have an IP phone. I get all the unlimited long distance that I want. This works even when I’m calling Italy. I tried to tell my Grandmother this, but she just didn’t understand. I guess I can understand why it is hard for people to understand how VoIP works, but let me tell you it does work.

The next best feature of VoIP is that I no longer get telemarketer calls. Let’s just hope the VoIP providers don’t cave in and start selling my phone number. Until then, if I hear the phone ring I know it’s a call I want to answer.

There are a ton of great quotes out there. Winston Churchill’s Never Give Up quote has been a favorite since high school. Well, there’s plenty more good ones that I found today.

The man who wins may have been counted out several times,
but he didn’t hear the referee.
Never quit or give up….never…..never give up.
- H.E. Janson

Never let your head hang down.
NEVER GIVE UP AND SIT DOWN AND GRIEVE.
Find another way.
- Satchel Paige

Never give in, never give in, never; never; never; never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense
- Winston Churchill

Never give up, never give in, and when the upper hand is ours, may we have the ability to handle the win with the dignity that we absorbed the loss.
- Doug Williams

Never, never, never, never give up
- Winston Churchill

I’ve honestly never understood why women would want to have purses. They are bulky and a pain in the butt to carry around. I guess it’s good if you get assaulted because you can use it as a weapon.

Even worse than girls and handbags is girls that want “Designer Handbags.” You know who you are. You just see a bag and have to buy it because it’s so cute.

The funny part is that when I came across this website I sent it to my little sister (who really isn’t so little anymore). She absolutely loved the Designer Handbags and asked where she could buy them. Oh….girls and their handbags and purses!!

Dang, I should have covered this in my previous post about So You Think You Can Dance on the Tyra Banks show. Here’s the dancing part of the Tyra Banks show. Tyra even gets down and dirty a little. I think that’s the first time a beautiful black supermodel has gotten anywhere near Benji.

If you watch ESPN like I do then you have learned all about poker. What you may not know is how far Online Poker has come in that same time period. It’s going crazy. Here’s just one example of what an online poker website is like.

PokerSavvy has information on playing poker (particularly Hold’em) online, reviews of online casinos, as well as links that allow you to get discounts on your new account at those casinos.

This was a really fun interview to watch. Tyra Banks actually does a good job as a talk show host. I hadn’t seen her show before, but she was actually quite entertaining. I think the dancing was so so since I actually prefer the couples dancing to the solo pieces. Unless of course it’s Ivan, but you know that.

Enjoy!!
