Card is gone!!!

I am sure Ben will be very happy to receive his Christmas card. I thought some of the comments were very insightful. (especially where Bryce said I was brilliant!!) LOL

I will be uploading soon a picture of what the card looked like.

Christmas card for B. Dave

Edited: Dec 19th (added picture of probable artwork). If you have not yet posted..do it soon as I will be finalizing this tomorrow..probably during my lunch break.


Lets all wish Ben a merry Christmas! I think it would be a great idea to write down some Christmas wishes, thoughts etc for Ben here in the comment section..then I would take all the comments and create a custom card for him. I hope to have it to him by Christmas...so I will take whatever comments are posted and mail it next Thursday (Dec 20th) that way it will be close..if not right after.

So...what are the comments?

Kool gadgets for windows XP...

I was looking at a way to run widgets on windows XP. Kinda like the Vista 'Gadgets'. I had used a program called konfabulator years ago..but now yahoo has bought them out and I recently tried it out. It uses only about 8Mb of ram (if you arent running any widgets actively) which is real good. Each widget you are running seems to run between 2-8mb of ram so dont install more than I would say 5 that are 'active'. It pretty cool...they work in 2000 (with service pack 4) as well as Vista and MAC OS. Check it out.

Pony up people!!!

Ok...both my blogs will have the same message. If you havent read my 'anger' blog on blooruin...would be a good time to re-read it (including comments) and get amped up.

Now...I say pony up because yesterday I recieved a letter from Ben indicating that after January 1st they are no longer accepting packages. Soo...he had me order a bunch of stuff that he had been contemplating...but...was going to wait on. Now that no more packages will be allowed...he moved on it. I just spent $150 last night on the few items he had requested...(last month we spent $250 on a new T.V. as his old one broke).

A great Christmas gift at this time would be a donation to recharge the funds in his account. I do not mean send him a M.O. as I already do this every month. We have chosen for all funds to be donated through his site...and then I send out a monthly stipend that he has chosen. If you are interested in setting up a "monthly" donation amount...Let me know..I am working on setting this up and will let you all know when its in place. I want to test it first...as if you want this option..you may need to have a Paypal account, but I am not positive on this one yet.

If 10 people were to donate $5 this recoups $50. so...you get my drift. If 10 people could donate $5 a month...he earns $25 each month...(since I send him $25 per month as he said for now this is plenty).

For the standard donation a Paypal account is NOT required. You only need a debit or credit card.
