Garmin’s portable friction mount is perfect, simply put. I’ve used it to keep my Nuvi at bay in my wife’s Camry, my Ranger, and my work van. While my wife’s car is used primarily for highway and city travel, my truck and my work van frequently find their way onto pothole-laden back roads, gravel roads, dirt roads and even in construction zones. My truck and van bounce all over the place and this friction mount doesn’t move. The console on my van has numerous slots and open spaces for keeping work related items, and I often place my GPS over one of these holes with only the outer edges of the friction mount touching an actual surface. This doesn’t prevent the mount from doing its job, though. It stays put for the long haul.

It has very solid construction, a locking mechanism to keep your GPS in place and can easily be taken off of your dash or (in the case of my van), the console and tucked out of the way so that potential thieves aren’t tipped off to your possession of a GPS.

I highly recommend this friction mount for the simple fact that it does what it says it will do, and that’s keep your GPS in sight when you need it and out of sight when you don’t.

Unfortunately, I bought this book based on the rave reviews I was hearing from friends and associates. I couldn’t make it through the first chapter before I was forced to stop torturing myself. While I am an avid reader and will usually finish anything once I start reading, good or bad, the ’so called’ dialect used in The Help was painful. It was so far off the mark that it became the focal point of my experience and the story was lost. I know there may have been a struggle with Southern ‘black’ dialect but asking for help is not a crime. I am sure someone should have caught these errors before it went to the printing stage so the fault is not entirely the authors but she is surely at fault. Without reading the book I would question how accurate and ‘on-the-mark’ she would be on the maids perspective. After all if she chose not to research the dialect or use of language from southern blacks in the 60s it’s possible she was lazy in other areas as well. Again, I will never know and if anyone wants a slightly ‘used’ copy of The Help let me know before it becomes an altered book of art.

You know, I first tried to read this book when it first came out and it offended me. Now all these years later, I picked volumes 1 and 2 up at my local library. Still feel the same way. There are so many wonderful sacred texts to read why would anyone waste their time with this? The real clincher for me came in volume two when he is discussing sex and children. And I quote: (Page 105)

” In some societies, parents couple in full view of their offspring-and what could give children a greater sense of the beauty and the wonder and the pure joy and the total okayness of the sexual expression of love than this?”

This simply outrages me. This guy is one sick puppy.

There is nothing that I can add that hasn’t already been said about this book. But it was an important book to me in my teen years. Feeling lost, this book made me feel as if someone out there understood me. And for that I will forever be grateful to JD Salinger. May he dance with angels.

This is a great game system for everyone. Ordering it from Amazon was easy, quick and saved me the tax money.

Bought it for my Canon SX1 IS. Works great for sequential shooting and HD movies. Also uploads to PC pdq too.

I didn’t expect a lot at this price and after my last cheap hoover which I used only a few times before giving to goodwill, I bought this purely on reviews.
CONS:
~It’s the LOUDEST vacuum I’ve ever owned. My ears ring after every use, I need to buy earplugs.
~Rattley, plastic and cheap, you are pushing around a load of rattley plastic..just feels so cheap.
~Hose is almost worthless. Kinked with first use, exceptionally poor quality, thin, short and needs replacement pronto.
~Does a terrible job on tile. Spits stuff everywhere. This is a shame, my house is 90% tile. I now have to use the cheap hose on the tile to pick up all the stuff not picked up but spit everywhere.
~Way too chunky, big and awkward to get under anything. Out comes that darn hose constantly…

PROS:
~Pretty blue color.
~Cheap price which is all I could do right now.
~Works great on my big rugs.
~I like “bagged” vacuums better than “bagless”, much less mess and easier for me to use so this is a pro.
~Pretty good suction although took the corners of many rugs and instantly caught them up inside..be careful.
~Hose, albeit cheap and kinks easily, has lots of power..TOO much..(pro or con here?) and sucks small rugs up so tightly you have to yank to get them off. There has to be a happy medium here with this darn hose. It works great in corners and stuff, however, because of the power. Just doesn’t reach far….

Conversations with God : An Uncommon Dialogue by Neale Donald Walsch is a thought provoking book about one man’s relation with God. Walsch spends years writing down questions about religion and God on a legal pad. Out of the blue God starts answering them. It becomes quite complex at times. It’s just nice to see people are interested in what God has to say in this day and age.
If you’re so inclined, and want to read the messages God gave to a man who prayed 1,000,000 prayers than you definitely want to read this Great new book I found about faith, Jesus, God’s message and what we will do in the after-life entitled “The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers: A Message for Everyone,” by John H. Eagan. It’s really fantastic and the message from God is just amazing. I think the readers of Walsch’s book will really enjoy The Enlightenment. I can’t recommend it enough!
