Hillary Clinton - The world's best nutcracker!

This is arguably the best political product of the year!

I can see this sitting handsomely at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Sure, Grandpa, I would love another helping of cranberry sauce. Oh, and can you pass Hillary too. I have a couple of nuts over here that need cracking.

It’s easy to use:
Step 1: Put nut between legs
Step 2: Squeeze

You too can own this wonderful nutcracker. Just head over to Overstock.com. In the link, Head over to bradsdeals.com for extra savings.

Happy nut cracking!

Led Zeppelin releases songs digitally for the first time

Led Zeppelin
Congratulations dinosaurs – welcome to the nineties! Now you can trade in your 8-tracks, cassettes, and compact discs for the latest new fangled technology. An MP3 player!

Fans can purchase songs including the tired and overplayed Stairway to Heaven and Whole Lotta Love digitally for the first time. Guitarist Jimmy Page was quoted as saying that he was pleased with the move, which would “better enable fans to obtain our music in whatever manner they prefer”. Wow Jimmy, you are right on the cusp of technology. What’s next, a haircut? Say it isn’t so.

Although the group have sold more than 300 million albums worldwide their release on digital stores like iTunes will only add more cash in ‘ol Robert Plant’s pocket. Good thing I already ripped my CD’s.

After watching television on a trip from Ft. Lauderdale to New York, I was hooked. How could I possibly fly any other airline. Why would I want to fly any other airline.

Virgin America logoSo there it is. JetBlue figured out what jet setters wanted and boy did they deliver. Did I care about the simple snacks served on jetBlue? Those terraBLUE chips. (Okay, I get it, I get it), those cookies, and all the other tasty morsels they offer. The snacks are unlimited and you can eat as many snacks as you wish. They even give you little bottles of water. Doesn’t this make sense on a plane. It sure beats those sad little cups of water those other airlines offer.
