in praise of twinkies!

banana twinkies are back!
how awesome is that..

you know,they say they hadn't made banana flavor twinkies for about 60 years..
but it seemed to me they had a hint of banana in the 1970's..and maybe a bit of
lemon also.granted it wasn't as intense as it is now,but-who cares? :)
it am good.

never seen the chocolate dipped ones,but i heard they exist.
fried?nah.too much for me on that one.

what other treat could you pull the twinkie defense on anyway..
(and i still can't believe he tried that.good lord,don't give the man baklava..)

random celebrity poop

so,paris hilton is out of jail.BIG deal.
can somebody tell me why she even gets celeb status?
oh yeah..the rich thing.
i can't believe the crap she almost got away with.she got off easy as it is.
anybody i know that got popped with dui usually got a lot more time than she did,
and the safe driving school,and sometimes also community service.
she gets a tv interview. *sigh* america..


chris benoit dead

now this,is tragic.i was watching WWE last night and noticed they were speaking of him in the past tense,so i checked on line-he,his wife and one child were found dead in their home.very sad..i've seen some reports today saying it was a murder-suicide.

man,WWE isn't having a good month.first sensational sherry dies,now this.
i don't believe the whole "mc mahon limo blows up" line,i think he just wants to get off the show or something..but they must be feeling horrible now that they're getting the real thing.great moments in bad timing.

a saying i particularily liked..

"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives; be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank; people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone may destroy overnight; build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you have anyway.
You see in the final analysis, it's all between you and the higher power; it was never between you and them anyway."

Work at home things you actually do make money at

ok..so here's the poop.
a few years ago,i was asked on a board if i knew of any sites that you could actually make money from home on.at the time, i didn't know any that were legit.
through trial and error (oh yea,a lot of on the error side) i found some that paid,and paid on time.most of them you need either a paypal or an e-gold account to do,and of course what you get out of it is what you put in to it timewise,and promotion wise.your mileage may of course,vary.
minimum payout is what you have to reach before you cash out.

*note forum types and pay to click (looking at ads),and some of the game type sites are the best ones.surveys don't always have ones that match every user,so you rarely get them.but they're still good for the occasional supplimental.

mylot
this is a forum type,and one of the best.
the people here are so nice,the pay is just a bonus:)
min payout-$10



twisted clickers
*site now dead AFAIK-i think myster-e-mail is now too*


clixsense

low payout-$10.however,i recommend you set your payout to $20-there's a $3 check fee.
recommend upgrade also,you make it back quickly.


i will be adding more as i find worthwhile ones :)
