$900 on PayPerPost

I just broke the $900 mark on PayPerPost, approvals pending. It's been a slower week in terms of the kinds of opportunities available. Quite a few low-paying with lots of work items. I haven't seen any video opportunities in weeks, but maybe things will pick up tomorrow.

VegasPokerPro for poker players

For many people, poker is more than just a way to bet and lose money, it's a sport and a lifestyle. Last night when I switched on ESPN Sports Center, one of the features was about the most recent World Series of Poker. The winner took home twelve million dollars! That is an incredible amount of money and I'm sure that winning it must have been an exciting experience. The Internet has really changed the number of people playing poker and how they play it. A couple of years ago, Chris Moneymaker won the World Series of Poker after qualifying through an online poker site. That gave hope to thousands of other would-be professional poker players and led to the rise of online sites which train you in the ins and outs of poker with professional players. Guys like Phil Ivey have become celebrities because of their poker playing and the influence of the Internet.  If you are looking for a one stop center for poker information, VegasPokerPro is your place. They provide an active online community with  promotions, useful poker information and links, and many poker players looking for action seven days a week at all hours of the day and night. Poker forums are a great place to interact with other players and learn some tips. You can also find help with poker strategy, locate free poker sites and play Full Tilt Poker. Whatever you need to know about poker, VegasPokerPro has got it. If you want Party Poker, Absolute Poker or if you just want to learn the rules of poker better in order to understand the bluffing and strategy, it's there.

VegasPokerPro also has a store with lots of poker related stuff, and lots more for you to explore. If you like poker, check it out!

Testing Bleezer


Bleezer is a free blogging tool. It's written in Java, so it takes a little while to start up, but otherwise seems fine. It supports a number of blogging systems and runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Not bad.

However, when I went back to edit this post, I got an empty window and couldn't update it, so I went back to Qumana to make the changes.

Another Soccer Tabblo

I made a new Tabblo:




If I could do one home improvement

I think I would re-do the kitchen in my home if I could do one home improvement. A new floor, new counters and then I would refinish the cabinets. Our home has all the lowest-end choices, made by the original owners. The tile in the kitchen is white and really hard to keep clean, and the floor would be much better with tile. Although the kitchen would be the place to start, I could see doing quite a bit more throughout the house. Even the lawn could stand some re-doing in the backyard.



Bad Metaphor

Last week, ABC commentator Brent Musburger got some people mad by revealing a signal that USC's quarterback used during the game with his receivers. During yesterday's USC - Arizona football game, there was a moment where the coverage went to Jack Arute, the sideline reporter. The game was closer than expected, and he said that people thought the game would "be like clubbing baby seals" but it hadn't turned out that way. Huh? Did he come up with that on the spot, or did he think of it ahead of time? Either way, it seemed like a bad metaphor.
