These are some of my favorite places to go online. If you like them, great. If you don't, too bad. I like them and if you're
a raving-lunatic-liberal (yes, that should be all one word, shouldn't it?) you probably won't. Well, maybe you'll like the Trikke
and the Fluidity pages. They're good stuff for both sides of the isle.
Remember: Just because the businesses are listed here that does NOT mean they endorse my politics. It does NOT mean they agree
with anything at all I say, believe, want, or do. It means simply that I like the product/service. These businesses/services do NOT ENDORSE

Breast Cancer and Women's Health Issues
Inflammatory Breast Cancer is a rare, but aggressive
type of cancer that shows up as a bug bite, or swelling, hotness or itchiness (or a combination of these, as well as other symptoms) and
it does not have any lumps associated with it. If you have this kind of breast cancer, doing a breast self-exam will do no good
in finding it; an MRI or biopsy will be the only true tests. Please check out the website above and
watch this video to see if you should be concerned.
Breast Cancer info on the "usual" breast cancers that come with the lump you can
find with self-exams, mammograms, etc. Do not forget to check monthly and do not forget to be aware of the kinds of cancer
above.
Pro-Animal and Anti-Animal
A rather inflammatory heading? It makes you think, does it not? Well, read the information below from the different
animal organizations and see if you get the same reaction from their own statements on killing ("euthanizing") animals that I
got by reading their various positions. It may make you rethink which animal organization you support.
- The Humane Society has on their "policies" page their policies
regarding euthanizing animals (my bolding):
"The Humane Society should keep animals for as long as there is room for
them and they remain healthy. Unfortunately, this is not always possible if there
are more animals waiting for adoption than can be cared for. Those animals which
are unhealthy or aggressive or those that cannot be placed will be euthanized with dignity."
- ASPCA: The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals has on its "euthanisia" page (my bolding):
"Background "While it cannot be said that the ASPCA is “for” euthanasia, it recognizes the inevitable necessity
for euthanasia in certain circumstances. In many areas of the country there are more pets than
there are appropriate homes. The ASPCA believes that unwanted pets deserve a dignified, painless
death rather than suffer from such cruelties as malnutrition, disease or trauma, outcomes commonly
associated with an unwanted and/or uncared-for existence. Similarly, long-term housing of individual
dogs and cats in cages without access to exercise or social activities is not an acceptable alternative.
Euthanasia must be understood for what it is: a last-step, end-of-the-road option to spare animals
further hardship and suffering."
- PETA: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
practices this policy of "euthanasia" on their fact sheet page (my bolding):
"Euthanasia: The Compassionate Option
"Approximately 6 to 8 million animals are handled by animal shelters in the United States
each year. Even though some are reclaimed or adopted, nearly 4 million unwanted dogs and
cats are left with nowhere to go.(1) Shelters cannot humanely house and support all these
animals until their natural deaths—they would be forced to live for years, lonely and stressed,
in cramped cages or kennels, and other animals would have to be turned away because there would
not be room for them.
"Turning unwanted animals loose to roam the streets is not a humane option. If they don’t starve,
freeze, get hit by a car, or die of disease, they may be tormented and possibly killed by cruel
juveniles or picked up by dealers who obtain animals to sell to laboratories.
"Good and Bad Solutions Because of the high number of unwanted companion animals and the lack of good homes,
sometimes the most humane thing that a shelter worker can do is give an animal a peaceful
release from a world in which dogs and cats are often considered “surplus” and unwanted.
PETA, The American Veterinary Medical Association, and The Humane Society of the United
States concur that an intravenous injection of sodium pentobarbital administered by a
trained professional is the kindest, most compassionate method of euthanizing animals.
The American Humane Association considers this to be the only acceptable method of
euthanasia for cats and dogs in animal shelters."
Note: If you want more information on PETA (yeah, right: "Ethical") go to this website
and read their revealing story.
Are these the kinds of animal groups you want to support? Groups that think that it's kinder to kill
an animal -- even "humanely" -- than to allow it to live and make its own way? Personally, I think that's
an ugly, cruel, hateful idea: the idea that killing an animal is better than letting it live. The only time killing an
animal is better than letting the animal live is when the animal is too ill or too injured to save it. My
dog, Buster, was about seventeen years old when we had to have him put down. He had cataracts in both eyes and
was practically blind, he had very few teeth left and had difficulty eating, had digestive problems, and had
some good days still. But he also had arthritis in his
spine and joints but when it got to the point that I saw him limping on three of his four legs and I said that
was enough. He couldn't go on to make us feel better. But when he was healthy, not in pain, to suggest that because
he was a stray my mom found roaming the streets of her hometown and because of that, he should be put down, is hateful.
I support only organizations I believe are "Low Kill" organizations. I was told by the clinic workers at the SPCA in Titusville
(455 Cheney Hwy.: S.R. 50 at Sisson Rd) that they keep the animals until they can be adopted unless they are too sick
to cure, in which case they will be put down. That's who I support: an organization I have been told was willing
to keep the animal for as long as it takes. And the newsletter
of the Titusville SPCA supports that idea.
Computer and Internet Help
A great place to find computer help and info: Kim Komando's site.
You want to secure your internet connection with firewalls, virus protection, etc.? Go there. You'll find
great recommendations and all kinds of programs; some you pay for, some are free. Whichever, she tests it
and finds the best.
One of my favorite places to go find great software? Tucows.com! I
found my HTMLKit from Chami there and I highly recommend it. Please be aware that Tucows tries to keep any
software out of its listings that may have a detrimental effect on your computer and files are screened.
But always consider the possibilities.
If you can't find it at Tucows.com, go to CNet and click on their "Download" tab.
You can find system-specific downloads and they're a safe site to download from.
And speaking of Chami, I do highly recommend their HTMLKit. It is
so easy to use that almost anyone can create a website and keep it updated and make it look how they want
it to look with a little bit of knowledge. Goodness knows I had a book and HTMLKit to do the anti-incorporation
pages when I first started. I haven't improved that much in my knowledge of web programming, but I think
I have learned to apply my knowledge more efficiently. And, I still have books (I love books!).
TV Shows
We LOVE Duck Dynasty, too!
It's the story of a Christian family whose business is making Duck Commander duck and deer calls. It's hysterical! It makes me
laugh until I cry almost every episode. Don't watch more than a few episodes at a time if you don't want to have a side-ache
and sore facial cheeks from laughing and smiling so much. I love this show!
China
If you like porcelain and china like I like porcelain and china, you'll love the following links:
Antique China Porcelain and Collectibles has
marks you may have been searching for information on.
Gotheborg.com Specializes in antique Asian porcelain and pottery.
Check it out for those mystery markings you have been searching for but have never been able to find.
T.S. Restoration
has a long list of marks you can look up and find info on. Some of the sites I listed here are also listed there.
News
Breitbart.com is a news site and you can get all the info you want. Combine that with...
The Drudge Report and...
Fox News and...
NewsMax.com and you'll never have to visit the totally liberal news wonks again.
Michelle Malkin for a good does of truth and funny snarkiness.
Shopping!
Art Supply Warehouse has all the art supplies you will ever need at pretty good prices.
Jerry's Artarama
is another great source for good prices and art supplies.
If you're into scrapbooking or papercrafts, Scrapbook.com is a great place to find
some excellent prices and deals! Check out their sale section every visit!
There's also Scrapbooking-Warehouse.com for all kinds of scrapbooking
and card making supplies. It's all good.
CD Universe's movie section
is where we buy a lot of our DVDs: "Mystery!" to "NCIS" and BritComs. You'll find it
here at great prices. Check here before buying elsewhere.
Bass Pro Shops will help you find the right
fishing gear, the hunting things you need, outdoor gear of all kinds and even boats!
ArkivMusic.com is where to find some of the best music
on earth. If you love classical, you'll love this place. Have a favorite piece? You'll find it here. Have a favorite
orchestra? You'll probably find it here. Have a favorite conductor? Find that conductor here. Amazing assortment and
great prices. Wonderful customer service, too! My sons love finding new things here: Sibelius to Poulenc, you'll find
the best.
Levenger for luxury items that are very well made: leather briefcases, leather
totes, leather wallets, quality paper, pens, etc., you can't go wrong with Levenger. Watch their sales for great deals!
AbeBooks.com find just about any book you have ever dreamed
of finding here. You may have to pay an arm and a leg for it if it is rare, but you'll probably find it here.
Dover Publications is a good place to buy books that are anything
from the classics (the Bronte sisters, Shakespeare, etc.) to architecture, to costumes and decorative wallpaper patterns
of the 1850s. You'll find children's books there, too! Amazing range and fun to see. You may have some books that are
"seconds", but even on those that aren't the price is really good.
Other Stuff
Celebrity Cruises, our favorite cruise line. They are spectacular! I've
cruised on their ships five times now and each time I have more good things to say about the company. We have gone to
most of the Caribbean and we have gone to Alaska on Celebrity's two week repositioning cruise. Talk about a spactacular vacation!
If you ever get the chance, go on a cruise; and to make sure you enjoy it, get a room with a balcony. You'll only regret it
if you suffer from seasickness.
HealthGrades.com: Get information on your physician, surgeon and/or
hospital, including to which medical colleges your doctor went, how your hospital rates when it comes to costs,
length of stay, complications, etc. It's a good site to get info.
If you ever go to St. Augustine get a cupcake at Luli's Cupcakes. Luli's does NOT endorse
my website, my politics or anything else I stand for, but I endorse their cupcakes! I have tried many of their delicious combos, as of this date,
most recently their Strawberry Chocolate cupcake with Blueberry Frosting. YUMMM! Try any of their cupcakes and you'll be going to St. Augustine
more often! You can order from their website. Try them and you'll be ordering often. Budget for it.
Have foot problems? I highly recommend Dr. David Simonson of Brevard Foot and Ankle. He
treated my foot and he's not just a nice guy, he's a great doctor and I only had to get two shots in my foot and he fixed it. Hurray! Like I
said, if you have a foot problem -- besides it being in mouth -- go see Dr. Simonson. He'll get you walking!
The best dentist in Brevard? Go see Dr. Thomas Lunstrum of
Cocoa Village Dentistry. He's an excellent dentist, a nice guy and he's got a great staff.
He's also a Veteran who served in either Afghanistan or Iraq, oI don't remember which, so you'll be dealing with someone who has served you
in another way already! He's been my dentist since he bought the practice. I highly recommend him!
We liked their service so much, we used them twice! Personal Touch Countertops did
both our kitchen countertop last year,
and our master bathroom countertop (both with
matching windowsill) five years ago. They were so sweet when they did our master bathroom countertop that when we told them we had ordered
the hall bathroom marble countertop and needed it cut a little to fit, they offered to take it with them
cut it for free! They not only did that,
but they also rounded the edges of the countertop for us without us asking them! They are a great company and seem to really care about
the work they do. I highly recommend them!
Remember: Anyone who does not give you a wake-up call when they see you being stupid, self-destructive, or both, just plain
doesn't care about you. It's those of us who do wake you up who care.
