Black Friday deals (Playstation 3 160GB family bundle)


Today is a very good day to pick up an awesome deal with Amazon.com in the area of the Playstation 3 160 GB family bundle. It has a dual controller and comes with a copy of SingStar Dance. Handles 8 online and 4 locally. Just thought I would give a lttle heads up on what is available through Black Friday. Well, as they say in Hollywood,"That's a wrap."

F

The next time you visit your local friendly neighborhood Burger King you and I may want to make a careful check of the writing on the receipt next time because it is just possible you may end up the brunt of a joke that is in poor taste. Is'nt it true, we all might have dreamed of doing something like this, however, we wake up and go about our daily duties in a normal fashion?

This profanity laced receipt lead to a firing at a NorCal Burger King. Sacramento Resident Francisco Perez told KCRA-TV that after ordering food from the Sacramento restaurant, he noticed his receipt read, "F---You", in the area that would normally say, "Thank You", the four letter profanity was spelled out not once, but twice. One day after the story aired a Burger King Manager and an employee was fired and that was according to a satement by Burger King.

"Burger King Corp, (BKC) and the franchise that owns and operates this restaurant deeply regret that this incident occurred." The franchise has taken immediate corrective action and both the manager and the employee are being terminated, the franchise will be reaching out to the guest directly," wrote Burger King's Denise T. Wilson.

I wonder how much would Francisco Perez get should he decided to sue BK? Imagine the claim, death by burger with insult to injury producing eternal damage. Heck with all the nutritutional damage fast food restaurants cause, he would have proof positive that the industry meant him harm, isn't that right? Wouldn't it want to make any attorney take the case?

Well, I am going to run out to Wendy's restaurant make an order and check the receipt, just in case, I could at least explore the possibilities. So, as they always say in Hollywood, "That's a wrap."

Samsung cell phone (Samsung Android Smartphone)


This is one smartphone that is a must have and comes complete with all the features: Android 2.1 that is upgradable to 2.2, 4" display screen for movies, games and websites come to life on an anti-reflective screen, touch screen that is impressive, wi-fi connectivity, 5.0 megapixel camera and weighs 4.5 ounces.

This smartphone integrates email, social networking into one address book and combines google calendar and social networking calendars. This is just another example of the kind of tough competition there is out there in the communications industry. There are so many choices.

I can hardly wait to see how far it all takes us. Well, as they say in Hollywood, "That's a wrap."

Submersible Motorola Barrage V860 for Verizon

There is another cell phone choice that may appeal to the outdoors type and it is the submersible barrage V860. It is rugged and water-proof and you don't have to baby it. For those thinking of going to the mountains and throwing this cell phone in the lake to see if it still works like a timex watch commercial I would advise against it unless you have scuba gear and underwater photo light to search for it and find it and can afford another cell phone right away should you happen to not find it. I also do not recommend you throw it of the mountain to see if it will bust up on the way down, unless you have your mountain climbing gear and some kind of gps to monitor and locate where it landed.

With all that said  should you need a cell phone for occasional use and to have in your car for emergencies a prepaid cell phone will do nicely. All come with plans. If you should need email and web access like the rest of us then its the smart phone type. This also come with plans to fit any persons calling usage.

A little note since December 2005 the FCC rule require that all cell phones must be able to track your location. I know big brother is watching again. GPS enabled cell phones can transmit the latitude and longitude of your location. Even though call centers may not be able to receive your signal because they lack the equipment necessary to make that happen it is still nice to know that someone could possibly notice that we are missing when we get that urge to blaze a trail where no one has gone before and get lost in the dark in the middle of God knows where and nobody else does with a lot of natures creatures roaming about looking for food, it may be possible to get rescued.

Well, so much for that as they always say in Hollywood, "that's a wrap."

Daylight Saving Time 2010

As the process to temporarily advance the clocks in the country so that afternoons extended daylight and mornings are minimum, it is that time again.  All residents of the US and Canada should fall  back to standard time effective Sunday, November 7, 2010.

Official change 7:30 PM IST (6AM EST). During standard time clocks should be turned back 1 hour thereby increasing daylight in the morning and reducing it in the evenings. Just thought that I would give a heads up.

Congratulations to Alexandria Mills of the US for winning Miss World. Happy Halloween and as they say in Hollywood, "That's a wrap."

Sprint HTC EVO 4G (Smartphone)


Because I am partial to the Blackberry justice would not be served if I did not mention its competitors. Its just like choosing a perferred color or style or pen or political party and not comparing the others. Only for the sake of being fairminded I present another version of the smartphone. Without any further delay the "Sprint HTC EVO 4G", is a likely alternative.

This neat little package has a 4.3 inch 480 x 800 display screen, 1 GHZ processor, 4G integrated wireless radio that can be used to share the internet via Wi-Fi for up to 8 devices, 8MP camera capable of 720p HD video capture. HDM video with video calling capability. QIK and Google android 2.1 with HTC sense. Google maps and sprint navigation, sprint tv and nascar sprint cup mobile.


This market is wide open and comes with one of our greatest freedoms and that is freedom of choice. Whatever your preference is, in the smartphone criteria, there is one thing that keeps everything balanced and that is competition. When cell phone and smartphone companies compete, we win. Well, as I usually finish, I will say as they always say in Hollywood, "That's a wrap."

RIM Blackberry Bold 9700 (T-Mobile)--Worth your time

I chose this date to post because of the 9/11 mourning and the controversy over the planned/unplanned Quran burning. A sort of 10 seconds countdown to calm down and put things in proper order. Never to forget and never to let up.

Submitted for your approval is this new smartphone; the RIM Blackberry Bold 9700 (T-Mobile). Has a powerful 3G connectivity for email, chat download, stream, etc all at once. With its Wi-Fi support you can check email, shop online and even make calls as well as easily switching back and forth from your carrier network to wireless home networks and public hotspots. More multimedia with you in mind. Music, playlists and videos. Create your own soundtrack and play it back with crystal clear audio and/or watch a show in high definition. Has maps for all us men that refuse to ask for directions when we are lost, which is a big relief to all our wives and us single guys girlfriends. You can even track your business with this fantastic cell phone.

This is a great time to be alive, isn't it? All these technological and scientific advances make our lives more comfortable, doesn't it? Let us all endeavor to enrich the lives of our families, protect the future generation by showing love and understanding and encouraging them to be the best they can be. Our destiny is in all our hands so at this solemn time in our history let us worship God-Jesus Christ and let peace control our spirits, emotions and mind. Until next time, as they always say in Hollywood, "that's a wrap."
