Video of Paris Hilton on David Letterman

Written by: John

David Letterman is absolutely hilarious in this video of Dave and Paris Hilton. I would be really surprised if Paris Hilton ever returns to see David Letterman ever again. It takes Dave a few minutes to get it going, but a few minutes into it I was just busting up laughing at how David Letterman treated Paris Hilton. A great video of Paris Hilton and David Letterman. This will definitely be one that Paris and Dave remember for a while to come.

This video was from Paris Hilton on David Letterman September 28, 2007.

A Car Loan For Everyone

Written by: John

As I drive to work I almost always listen to the radio. I mostly switch between country music and ESPN. Although I would say that I mostly listen to ESPN and then country music during the commercials. However, often I find that they are both at commercial. I think it’s a major conspiracy, but I guess it’s possible that it’s just coincidence. Either way, I’ve heard tons of commercials for car places. I always find it interesting to know how easy it is for people to get a Car Loan. In fact, sometimes I wonder what people are doing that can’t afford to buy a car.

I must admit that I hate the idea of any debt, but I can imagine situations where a car loan might be completely necessary to get into a better financial situation. At least now they have tons of special financing programs and you can even get car loans online now. I haven’t done too much research into online car loans, but I expect that it’s a little like a bank. An online loan requires less overhead costs and so they can pass those savings on to you. Either way, it’s pretty amazing how easy it is to get a car loan these days. The key for each of us is to understand why they want to give us that loan. In many cases it may be the right thing to do. In other cases, you have to be careful to make sure you know what you’re doing.

Check Out a Blog Map Mashup of A Few Las Vegas Blogs

Written by: John

I’ve been working on a little Google Mashup of blogs and here’s a demo that I did for Las Vegas Blogs. I still have a good ways to go, but I think the concept is pretty neat. You can read all about my idea and vote for it in Idea Warz.

Let me know what you think of the mashup. Soon I’m hoping to get a beta page out where interested bloggers can start signing up.

The Addiction of Blogging

Written by: John

I must admit that I’m addicted to blogging. I know, I’ve probably said it before, but it’s truer today than ever before. Sure, sometimes I don’t get around to updating my blog. What can I say? I am working at a job where we are moving into a new building, I’m doing my masters degree, I have 2 kids and I have a zillion other web projects going on too. However, that doesn’t mean that my heart isn’t in blogging.

In fact, the interesting thing is that when I go through the day about 2 times per day (on average) my mind will start writing a blog post. It’s like I’m writing a blog post of the experience in my head. I know that’s weird, but it’s what happens. It could be something that’s said on the radio or possibly something that happens at work. Oh yeah, and my kids often have me saying, “That would be a good blog post.”

Honestly, I don’t need to call home and talk to my wife to see how she’s doing. I can just pull up our family blog and find out how her day is going. It’s usually a pretty good indication of our state of being. If I view our blog and don’t see any posts. Then, I know I better get home quick. Things haven’t been tame enough for her to blog. Not a good sign.
