In our household while I was a kid growing up, we always had pizza Wednesdays. Now most of the time that meant ordering in pizza and scarfing it down before we all headed off to church for Sunday night services. Well, I thought it would be fun to continue doing that with my own family. But the thing is that I didn't want to just order it in. I always loved pizza and looked forward to the middle of the week. But I really want to give my kids some better pizza to look forward to.
I was looking online for some good pizza recipes and as I was doing that I saw the site DomainNames.com. After I read that some I decided to buy a domain on there and start a blog called Pizza Wednesdays with recipes that I come up with and fix.
I told my husband and he thought that it sounded like a great idea. Now if I can just find enough other things to fill in the rest of the week between Wednesdays.

Chicago
On a recent trip to Chicago I stopped by the Suites Collection. What is the Suites Collection? I myself had no idea so I started asking around.Here is what I found out.They own and operates several boutique serviced office or managed office suite locations in the city of Chicago. With today's new free lance economy, shared office space such as the properties operated by the Suites Collection provide free lancers, artists, consultants, designers and marketers the flexible space they need to get their business off and running.Sounds like a nice place to me. The Suites Collection properties are located in River North and the Loop in the city of Chicago. The Suites Collection also offers virtual offices and conference room rentals. So if your looking for serviced offices Chicago this might be just perfect. Or if your looking for serviced office spaces Chicago it would be worth checking out.

Tickets to anywhere
I have a friend who wants to see Avril Lavigne I do not even know who this nor have I ever heard of this person. They asked me where can they get Avril Lavigne Tickets? I gave them a look like WHO??????? I must live in a cave because they also asked me if I can get Pageant Of The Master Tickets? Once again I gave the look that I have no idea what you are talking about. I ask them if they wanted some Nassau Coliseum tickets? Of course I do they answered. So since I am in the game playing mood I ask how about some United Center tickets? Yep they will take these too. Alright how about some Madison Square Garden tickets? Of course so I had to ask Is your life just going out to see any group or any Stadium? Yep it sure is they replied.

Gold or a House?
If you had $100,000, which would you buy Gold Bullion,Gold IRA or a house? That's a tough one for me.But I think I would buy Bullion. Looking at the last 10 years, a home versus gold coins, it seems that the gold has held its value better. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I'm an easy-going guy, and I have nooo problem with that.
I have heard commercials about how gold has never been worth zero, and it always reminds me of when I was a kid and my dad bought some gold bullion. He actually buried it. I kid you not! He went out in the back yard like a golden retriever, and dug a hole to put it in. I remember it very well for two reasons. I was with him when we buried the gold bullion. He got out a gold coin and showed it to me. I think it was 10 oz, and at that time the price was around $250-$300 an oz. The other reason is that he told me if they were needed for some reason in the winter, we would be out of luck, because of the ground being frozen to about 2 feet down.
I also remember that about 2 years later we were going to dig up the gold and we could not find it. This was not in the city so its doubtful anyone saw us, but not impossible. We did this a few times, and would bury it in between two trees so it would be easy for us to find. All of the times we buried gold it was found, but not that one time.
Ahhh the father-son memories! This was back in the 60's and 70's when we still did things the old school way. Somewhere, in a quaint little town in northern Illinois, there is 10 ounces of gold that will likely never be found.

Canada Drugs
I normally try my best to support USA products, but its getting harder and harder to do. I had to get some medication at the local drug store and I waited almost an hour after I went to the counter and told there I am here to pick up my order.It was called in 3 hrs earlier. So I now am considering calling Canada Drugs when I need some medication. If its not important that I have it now I am calling them up and see what they have to offer. I see no reason to wait an hour for something that was called in 3 hrs earlier. I am surprised that they do not make me wait for over the counter drugs. So when I go buy Lipitor I am considering using these guys.

Hawaii
Of all the places in the entire USA Hawaii is high on my choice of dream places to live. Yeah I know its expensive, just look at the real estate listings in Hawaii. They are not too bad though considering it is almost a perfect climate. Honolulu has held up pretty well, and time will tell if it comes down as much as California has.
Back in my living on a boat days, I had quite a few friends who sailed to Hawaii. Some stayed and others came back ASAP. Sailor Sam was one of them (great guy). Sam if you're out there I would love to hear more of your stories. For you clowns who think its a cake walk to sail there, or dream about it, just so you know its about a 12-16 day trip on a sailboat from California, depending upon how fast your boat is. There are not any places along the way to get food or anything else you may of forgotten. Its a long long sail. Unfortunately Walmart and Taco Bell have not made floating establishments yet, but if it was feasible you can bet Walmart would have done it by now. They'd be selling China made pirate eye patches and hook hands at reduced prices.
If you do not like Hawaii, and just want to see some scenic pictures or some desert real estate check out newtohavasu.com If you're there send me a real estate catalog. I collect them much to my wife's dismay. She made me throw out a stack of them today, and it broke my heart.
So, if you are reading this at work right now, and you're hating your job because your boss is a complete tool, and you want to pretend you are working really really hard on that really really important research project check out carolina real estate instead. Dream about telling your boss to stick it as you rip off your tie and storm out of the office because YOU ARE MOVING !!!
