So the day we were leaving for NC back in June, I got a sweet phone call from my buddy who works at a local radio station. Actually a voicemail b/c we were busy packing up the van. On the way to the airport I called him back via the radio station’s phone #. He didn’t answer. So I gave up figuring it wasn’t a big deal. Then the phone rang and I heard, “KBULL, who’s this?”, I went on to be caller 13, how lucky!! Joy and I won Kenny Chesney tickets, which was very very cool. Hopefully we’ll get a babysitter and have a nice date. Otherwise the tickets might get sold. Either way, lets give a big bull thanks to JJ!!! Thanks man.

Arby’s Free Food (with purchase)
Every Wednesday in July Arby’s is giving me more of what I want, fat fat fat. Mmmmm that blessed fast food of the ancient greek gods. Arby’s is one of my favorite places to eat when someone else is buying, but not this month! This month I’ll be thinking about Arby’s on hump day because I might get something good for free. Here’s the break down:
- July 1st – Free beef & cheddar with drink purchase
- July 8th – Free Orange Creme Swirl Shake with sandwich purchase
- July 15th – Free Reg Roast Beef with drink purchase
- July 22nd – Free Roastburger with drink purchase
Here’s a google calendar version for all you techies out there. So don’t forget! Free food always tastes better, and that random raisin in the apple turnover is supposed to be there.
So for those of you still pimping out your computer with Windows XP, your time has come. Windows 7 will be coming out October 22nd, and I don’t have a big list of why you should upgrade, just one: Windows Media Center. Yeah all the other cool stuff is great too, but really, until something gets close to this experience Windows Media Center will be on my TV for a long time. OH and if you can make up your mind before July 11th, Bill will pay for half of it.
The full version of Windows 7 Home Premium is priced at $199, with an upgrade from Vista or XP costing $119. The full version of Windows 7 Professional is $299, with upgrades going for $199. Windows 7 Ultimate is priced at $319, with the upgrade version at $219.
But U.S. shoppers who pre-order between June 26th and July 11th will receive discounts of 50% or more, Microsoft said. For instance, Windows 7 Home Premium will sell for $49 during the discount period, while Windows 7 Professional will sell for $99. Participating retailers include Best Buy and Amazon, as well as Microsoft’s own online store.

P.S. – Don’t waste your money on the ultimate version!

I’m looking for a guille suit for halloween. Anyone know of a good one? I’m also testing a new plugin.
Anyone looking to build?
Here is a great video about downsizing houses. While I think downsizing and optimizing space is a great idea, I think this might be a bit extreme. If you disagree, we’ve got a 16 x 18 foot plot in our backyard for sale. Give me your thoughts in the comments.
Free online classified ads
So I just found this site, owned by Ebay, called Kijiji. A competitor with craigslist, but definitely not as supported by my local people. I really like some of their features.
How do you buy/sell stuff online? You still pay ebay/amazon fees or have you switched to a free service?
