Hey everyone out there,
I just wanted to wish everyone a merry Christmas! It's when Jesus was born! Thank you LORD! Anyways, just wanted to give you guys a sweet website that none of you have probably heard of before. Here's a little preview:
Its a website where guys or gals can buy clothes, shoes, cd's, decals, books, movies, etc etc etc.. all christian. Now I know what your thinking, its going to be ugly shirts.. and religious yada yada's. Now unlike the boring stereotype you may have for evangelistic shirts, these are absolutely the farthest thing from it. It's like express, hollister, abercrombie type shirts but with scriptures and very urban style writing with lots of graphics! The clothes are awesome! So I figured if you have some extra cash from the holiday season and don't know what clothes to buy, check out this site!

Thanks! and Have a good new year!

Caution! Bad Drivers Ahead!
Hello all and Merry Christmas,
It's that time of the year again. No not Christmas, although that is THE best time of year. It is bad driver season... Many of you know what and who I'm talking about. It's the time of year where everyone forgets what they've learned about driving (not that many of them can recall what they've learned anyway) and drive like they've never driven before. When snow, ice, rain, sleet, hail, and whatever else mother nature can throw our way comes people quickly forget all they have learned. Luckily, I'm here to help you out and navigate your way to good driving so people like me can enjoy the road without fearing for my life.
There are some simple things you can do to help yourself get acquainted with "winter" road conditions when it comes each year. Here are 5 simple steps to help you get you on your wayand out of my way when your on the road.
Lesson 1:
Before even thinking about driving, turn on your heat and press your AC button to help keep your car from fogging up. This will help you in many ways, like being able to see someone at a four way stop, or looking down the road when you need to cross lanes, or even keep you from getting a ticket because a cop will write you an "obstruction of view" ticket if your windows are foggy. I know many of us breathe extra hard when we are in a confined space thats moving very fast with someone else in control, so please be considerate and let the driver see out the windows.
Lesson 2:
Any time after we have just had freezing rain or snow your going to want to do this before you leave from anywhere. In a safe spot, away from any cars, start driving and then brake hard. Your car will do one of two things. It will either stop normal or slide because their's ice. This will give you a feel for how slippery the roads are. This will help you every time you go near a stop sign or a light to remember that the roads were icy earlier, so they might be still. This will prevent you from many things like slamming into someones rear end, ending up in a ditch, and running a stop sign or red light. The last thing I want to see while I am sitting at a stop sign is someone in my rear view mirror coming 50 mph sideways honking their horns at me because they can't stop.
Lesson 3:
Please please please please please please become familiar with the terms "BLACK ICE" and "RAIN." I can't tell you enough, more people get scared of this black ice stuff than the black tar on little nemo (no not finding nemo). If your smart, you can realize that if its 35 or 40 degrees out and we have just had some snow or rain... its not going to freeze.. not with cars and a thing called friction running all over it. Please don't drive 25 in a 50 because you can see the reflections of a cars brake light on the road in front of you. This happens in rain too... maybe that's what it is.. RAIN. If its icy, you will know because you used step 2. GO THE SPEED LIMIT!
Lesson 4:
Please don't text your sugar mama or your baby's daddy while driving in "winter" weather. This is probably the worst thing you can do, unless you use cruise control in the same weather.. than probably those two are tied for being the most stupud. I don't need to explain do I?... Ok here's an example.. if your on the phone while its "crappy" out.. more than likely you will be going under the speed limit, brake way to early or late, and drive like a 95 year old grandma on her way to church.
Lesson 5:
Get comfortable with driving in extreme conditions like ice and snow. Find out what works on your car, because every car is different. I would have to bet 99% of people driving in snow don't apply their e-brake in an emergency situation. Some of you have been in situations where the roads are slippery and you need to turn and by now you've tried the 100 year old method of pumping your breaks and you still wont turn... and you end up in a ditch or plowed into a car.. or God knows what. If you would have used your e-brake you could have turned and saved yourself some mad moola. The e-brake was put there for emergency situations.. thus the name emergency brake [e-brake].
In conclusion, I hope you can use some of these suggestions, because it will save me and a lot of other drivers some headaches and frustration. Always remember to drive safe, there are days when you need to take it easy. Thanks and happy holidays!

Togbot.com, The Newest Social Media Website Coming in 2008
Hi everyone,
Let me introduce you to togbot. No it's not a tog, and no it doesn't sell robots. It's just a goofy name that is fun to say and has a memorable ring to it. The site is being worked on right now and I am always looking for people who are creative. If you are interested please email me at sean.farrell@togbot.com.
I can't discuss anything about the site yet, because there is nothing else like it. I am excited to share with you the details that I can. What I can tell you is this: It will benefit a lot of people, it will improve an existing method of something, and there is a strong need for it. Other than that measly amount of info I just gave you, there is nothing really else to share with you except for the logo which is above. Hope you enjoy.

ZAP - The electric car company that no one knows.
Hello all,
Here is another great article that I've been dying to write for some time now. I recently had a friend tell me about a car company. A car company that is 100% electric. Now I know a lot of you are reading this thinking, "oh great, an electric car company,... they are probably pieces of crap and can only go 25 mph."
That's exactly what I used to think of when I thought of electric cars... slow crappy cars that go as fast as a moped and looks like a festiva. Until my friend told me about ZAP which stands for Zero Air Pollution. The cars they've designed are 100% electric and best of all, look GOOD! Well at least some of them do (the three wheel zebra design is not my favorite). They have a whole line up of different sedans/sports/and even a crossover designed by Lotus Engineering. The company is growing fast by inking a key partnership with Lotus Design Engineering and signing a joint venture deal with Youngman Automotive in China (biggest luxury car dealership in China). They have signed a mega contract with Coca-Cola and their electric sedan is the first ever electric sedan to pass the VOSA test in the UK. They are selling their cars all over the U.S, in China, UK, and Japan. The company is getting out of debt while Daimler's SMART is going further and further into debt.
Read this article for more on that:
http://biz.yahoo.com/iw/071115/0329125.html
The company is a publicly traded company on the OTC BB. This is the minor league of stock exchanges. Now yes most penny stocks are traded on this exchange and yes it is risky and stock prices can fluctuate very easily. The difference about ZAP's stock history is that it used to be traded on the NASDAQ. It was hovering around $4.00-$5.00 when they decided that they wanted to cut costs by being listed in the NASDAQ and move to the cheaper exchange like the OTC BB. The reason, as stated by the company, was that they wanted to spend more money on research and development while still being a publicly traded company. The company plans on going back to the NASDAQ once they have executed their future plans around their cars.
Overall, my ideal trading position on this company is to build shares bi-weekly or monthly. The stock isn't going anywhere right now being in the OTC BB but it is definitely cheap. Their financials are great and when they move to the NASDAQ, they will be worth a lot more than $.95 a share. Take for example GBT - Advanced Battery Technologies. Earlier this year the company was $.56 a share and announced the contract of being the exclusive battery dealer of ZAP. Now the company is trading in the NASDAQ at $5.00-$6.00 a share! Take my advice, get in early on this company, they are going higher.

New Sundae's and Floats for Dippin' Dots.
Hey everyone, we just added some new items to our kiosk's in the following malls:
Now this one is a little flat on top, because it was the first one I made, and had to use whipped cream out of a cup (dont worry, I didnt sell this one to anyone, I definately ate it.) The sundae program was introduced to all the Dippin' Dots franchisee's in the last two weeks so be sure to check them out at a location near you. It's the best Dippin' Dots product I've ever had.
- Rivertown Crossings
- Briarwood Mall
- Meridian Mall
- Woodland Mall
The new items added are Dippin' Dot sundaes and new orange and rootbeer floats. A picture of the new sundae is below:
