Your Credit Info!

Did you know that your credit card transaction can be hacked from hackers? I read that after all your products have been scanned by the barcode scanners and you decide to pay with credit you put yourself at risk. That’s because when your credit card is swiped the chances are high that your information can be stolen. And that’s because banks and stores that your dealing with aren’t looking out for you. And once your credit information has been taken by hackers it will take a very long time to fix, at your cost. So before you use your credit card again, think about it before you hand it over at check. My suggestion would be to only use your credit card at well known stores. But don’t get fooled, they too could be just as bad as smaller stores.

All Digital Now!

I was just reading that almost 800,000 calls came in to the federal hot line this week. All these people where calling because their TV’s went out when the switch from analog to digital happened. These people where calling in for help and coupons to get a converter. I find this to be very funny that these people where that stupid to think the switch wasn’t coming. It’s like they where thinking it was never going to happen. These are the same people that have never heard of a compact flash cards for a digital camera. Anyway, I hate it when your told something is going to happen and people just put it off, then cry that they didn’t know. The FCC have been telling us about the switch for about a year now.

Traveling With Bed Bugs!
The title of the post even creeps me out, but read on. Vacation season is in full swing, and finding the best spot to vacation is our only concerns, well, besides money. But anyway, you should have concerns about other things as well, things like bed bugs at the hotel or motel you stay in. Bed bugs are a huge problem in the hospitality business. Hotels don’t post or claim that their bed bug free, because they can’t back that up. A mater of fact, just about every hotel or motel you will stay in has bed bugs. But that’s only half the problem, bring them home with you is the other. Did you know that bed bugs will attach themselves to your luggage? And when that happens your hotel’s problems now become yours. But don’t let it this happen to you. Your hotel isn’t going to help you clean the mess up, so protect yourselves. For a very small investment of only a few dollars you can purchase BugZip bed bug encasement bags. These encasements will help prevent bed bugs from coming home with you. So make sure you do the wise thing and check out BugZip, and take action to protect your family.

Only In The US!

The Senate race between Republican Norm Coleman and Democrat Al Franken ends the same way Democrat Al Franken wins the seat. Now the Minnesota’s highest court is ordering Republican Norm Coleman to pay Democrat Al Franken almost $95,000 to cover his court cost. This is because his appeal to the Minnesota Supreme Court remained the same, he lost the seat. I read he lost the race by a touch over 300 votes, which is very close. Come the next election I would bet that Republican Norm Coleman will win that Senate election.

Now here’s what bothers me the most. Between these to yahoo’s they have spend almost $50 millions to win this seat. Why in the world are they spending that much money for a job that pays just under $200,000 a year? The only thing I can think of is that they have everything else, but now they want the status of being called a Senator.
