The things in my head go 'round and 'round

This is my life. You can't have it.

The folks in Illinois are interested in Michigan Proposal 1

Maybe it is ex-patriots from the ‘Gan-land. Checking out the hits again, most are coming from the Detroit area. What is up with that? No folks with maladies that could benefit from Medical Marijuana on the West coast? I think not. I can surmise a few communities that have plenty of folks who could benefit.

South Haven with its good sized population of Senior Citizens. Including my Mother. Though the thought of her blazing one to take the edge off of her neck pain sends a shiver up my spine. Head up the Lake Michigan shore and head into pretty much any lakeside community and you are going to hit folks with cancer, and with aids. They definitely could benefit from not having to use morphine, and oxy to help ease their pain.

But the majority of hits are coming from around Detroit. Go figure.

I am really impressed with this

I have some body work that is needed on The Red Beast, so I went to my favorite search engine and started looking for one. One site that came up was collision repair yorba linda. The actual web address is autobodyyorbalinda dot com. I was impressed by how this company has a page that takes you through selecting the right shop for you, and then what you should expect when you go in for your appointment.

That is a class act, if you ask me. The site I visited is part of a larger network called “Fix Auto Network”. I was impressed.

Is there anyone opposed to Michigan Proposal 1?

I am still trying to find something substantial to post concerning opposition to the Medical Marijuana proposal that will be going on the ballot on November 4th this year.

The only ones who seem to have a major concern are the police departments. Doctors, lawyers, mental health professionals all say that they have nothing negative to say about it. But the police do. Interesting. I would have thought that this would free them up.

Over 15 trillion dollars. That is 15 with 9 zeros behind it. has been spent in the war on drugs this year. That is alot of money. And that is at the federal level. At the state level the amount is $22,000,000 000. Staggering numbers, aren’t they?

Would could be done with that money if a chunk of it was freed up and used to help people?

Think about it.

Is It Time to Order Checks?

Bloggers are always talking about marketing. Getting your message, your website, your brand out there to the masses. Unique visitors are gold to every person who has a blog. You are begging for uniques. Not to say that your regular visitors aren’t important, or appreciated. They are. But the unique visitors are what you are after.

There are many methods to push visitors to your site. Both off and on line. On line methods are pretty time intensive, you are posting on different websites, and establishing relationships hoping that those actions will result in your visitor numbers increasing. Off line is a whole different ballgame.

Off line marketing involves physical things. Pencils, pens, hats, t-shirts, stress balls, bags, flags, mugs, and just about anything else you can think of putting a logo on. Magnets for you car, for your refrigerator, there are so many things you can put a logo on. Even checks.

Checks, you say? Heck yes. You can Order checks and have your logo customized on them by Vistaprint dot com. And by using this code: Checks25 : 25% off Checks, you can get 25% off of your order. How absolutely cool is that?

Think about how many checks you write a month. Me, I write one a week for groceries, and then there is one every couple of weeks to the school for The Princess to have money for lunch. One for the each of the utility companies, and so on. If you have your website addy on each check, you are increasing your chance of increased visitors by doing what you have to do anyway. There is no extra effort. Just increased visitors.

And we all know that unique visitors are like gold.

Namaste.

Michigan calling

I have been checking the hits on this site for the past couple of weeks and I have come to one conclusion.

You folks have way too much time and freedom on your hands when you are at work. My daily hits sky rocket starting at 9am on the weekdays. So that must mean that you have had time to get to work, put your stuff away, go to the bathroom, get some coffee, and then fire up your computer.

Then the fun begins.

I should feel good about that fact that you guys are coming to this site instead of checking out porno. Or Fox news.

Thank you for that much.

But lets get some work done today also, shall we?
