Show Me The Money

Are you looking for new ways to make money in the coming year? I know that I definitely am, but I am willing to step back and find old ways to do it as well such as investing. Now I am not suggesting that everyone jumps back into the market, but for me I think it might just be the time for it and finding the right people to handle these investments is as important to me as the money that they will be handling for me.

It takes a special person that can make me trust them and finding that right one probably won’t be easy since I am very particular about who that person will be. I have looked through a lot of places on the Internet and found different companies such as Wicked Profits and I will make my decision as soon as I am confident that I have found the right one.

Now if you are starting to feel a bit more brave as far as investing is concerned then let me make this suggestion to you. Study, research, and then you choose who you will want to help you get your funds back to where they may have been or to where you want it to be.

Bret Hart vs. Hulk Hogan

OpenSports.com has a story up on Monday Night's WWE vs. TNA showdown, including the returns of Bret Hart and Hulk Hogan to TV. The article asks the following question, "Do 12 to 15-year-old kids or people older than that care about Hart or Hogan?" You can check out that article here.

Stop, Look, and Listen

If you have been to this sight more then once you will know that I love doing research online, and when I say research I mean research about anything and everything. So I am always checking out new and different search engines all the while still using my favorites.

I am not sure whether I would ever change the fact that I use certain search engines but I can say that I am always willing to try the new ones, even if they are only new to me. The latest one that I have tried and enjoyed has been torrents search.

I guess the point that I am trying to get to is that we should all be willing to try something new on the internet as improvements are being made all the time and these improvements can definitely make our lives a whole lot better and easier to live.

So the next time you go online to find something new, why not stop first and search for a different search engine and see what happens when you type in your search, you may find things that you were never able to find before. Happy hunting friends and I hope that you find what you are looking for!

Steve 'Dr. Death' Williams Passes Away

I can now confirm that Steve "Dr. Death" Williams lost his battle with cancer last night, as he passed away at the age of 49. I know the cancer came back this year and his health had worsened in the last few months. No other details on the death are available at this time.

Williams was considered one of the top wrestlers in the world during the late 80s and early 90s. He formed two of the world's best tag teams with the late Terry Gordy and with Ted DiBiase Sr., as well as a notable team with current WWE Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis. He was in particular a major star in the 90s for All Japan Pro Wrestling. He was recruited into pro wrestling by Bill Watts and was the 1982 Rookie of the Year. Watts discovered him at the University of Oklahoma, where he was a star lineman on the football team and a four-time All-American heavyweight wrestler. Many of his peers in wrestling over the years had believed if he had not played college football and concentrated on wrestling, that he would have been a strong candidate for an Olympic gold medal in 1984 or 1988.

Learn

In this day and age with the way that the economy is it is good to have the knowledge needed in order to compete in today’s job market. What better way to accomplish that then to find the right training so that you will be able to gain that knowledge that will allow you to make the move upward in whatever company that you may be in or making that move to the prospective company that you might be interested in.

Now the next thing on your mind is where should I be trained and how should I make that happen, well there are a lot of ways of going about this, including college, technical school, or any other type learning facility that might help you in your career.

There are so many different types of training that you might consider and so many different companies that can give you that training, such as on the job training or something like Primavera Training.

So my suggestion is that you might do what my wife and I will be doing soon, learn, learn as much as you can about the subject at hand and have those extra steps ahead of everyone else that will help you get through the journey that you are on now and will get you through to the end.

Backstage WWE Locker-Room Story: Sheamus, Yoshi & DiBiase

There is a story going around the WWE locker room about Sheamus, Ted DiBiase and Yoshi Tatsu, who were all three roommates at one time in Tampa, Florida. They apparently all roomed together while they were all training in FCW.

The story goes that Sheamus played “big dog” in the apartment and pissed his roommates off because he allegedly would use their protein shakers and not clean them. Ted and Yoshi confronted him at the same time once. Sheamus got mad and threw Tatsu’s shaker at him but Yoshi caught it. Sheamus then called out Tatsu but Yoshi ended up beating him up pretty bad. There are even reports that Sheamus was on the verge of tears. Yoshi is said to be very good with his hands and has boxed and gone through the New Japan dojo.

When asked if the story was true, Tatsu would only say, “I just wanted to teach Sheamus a lesson in respect. Don’t mess with other peoples stuff.” There was hope within WWE that the story would make its way to Vince McMahon, who has always had the mindset that he doesn’t want people to think one of his World Champions lost a real fight.

With that being said, we can't confirm or deny this story but it was talked about between a group of talent several weeks ago.

Bill O'Reilly's Quote of the Day

Today's quote came from the O'Reilly Factor and was made by Charles Krauthammer:

"You know, a suspect is what you call a guy that you arrest in a burglary. A terrorist or an enemy combatant is what you call a guy that you find on the battlefield. That airplane was a battlefield. And that's what the Obama administration refuses to acknowledge."

Saving The Dollar

With the economy the way it is these days, most people out there are like me and are looking for the best deals now more then ever, be it restaurants, shops, or somewhere else where you might be spending your money. So lately I have been clipping coupons and looking for online deals to help me save that money that is so needed these days.

I recently found several ways to save that money and coupons and online coupons are just two of the ways another way I found is Mobile Coupons. With this brand new way of saving (well to me it is new) you find and redeem the coupons directly from your mobile phone.

I thought this would be a good place to share money saving ideas friends, I will of course share with you the things that I find and the ideas that I might have and if you would friends you can leave a comment of your ideas for me and others that might be reading this.

Sounds like a good idea to you? Sounds good to me too and that’s the reason for this post, we will have a place where we can help save money in our little part of the world, so let’s join together and save money!!

WWE HOFer Changes Name

WWE Hall of Famer Greg "The Hammer" Valentine has apparently changed his legal name from John Wisniski, Jr. to Gregory Lee.

Why?

Quote Of The Day

From Charlie Daniels:

"I am sick and tired of Democrats, I am sick and tired of Republicans, they had their chance and blew it.

If I had my way, everybody on Capitol Hill would come home and make a living in the same way we all do, and I mean everybody."

Now, This Is What I Am Talking About!

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of LG Chocolate Touch. All opinions are 100% mine.

With the way life is these days it is always great to find something that makes your way in life a little bit easier and is better then great when you find something that makes your life a lot easier. So in my quest to make my life easier I have been looking for the perfect mobile phone, one that could do everything that would make my life a pleasure to live. A phone that would make calls, send texts, use the internet, use Social Media, take pictures or video, and has a music player with Dolby Mobile technology for crystal-clear sound quality.

Ok now I can see you shaking your head and thinking that I am crazy if I believe that I could ever find such a phone, but let me fill you in my friends, in my quest I believe I have found just that perfect phone! LG has come out with the new LG Chocolate Touch that does everything that I stated earlier in this post that I was looking for!

So as I am looking at this phone I am thinking that I can just get rid or my digital camera and my netbook as anything those would do this would do better or at least as good and I wouldn’t have to carry around so many things because I get all of it in one awesome piece of technology!

Think about it friends, you could have in your hand something that can has Sweet Visual Effects and features, including Rhythmical Beat that vibrates the handset to the beat of the music, One-touch Social Network Message Key for easy use of Mobile Blogging, top-notch text, picture, video, and voice messaging, including Visual Voicemail, 3.2MP Camera/Recorder–quality pictures and videos, with image editor, and Dolby Mobile technology for crystal-clear sound quality!

What more could you ask for, especially in a phone? Yeah, I have mine now and it’s your turn to get yours! What are you waiting for?

Quote Of The Day

From Charlie Daniels:

"I do not claim allegiance to any political party. I am not a Democrat or Republican nor Libertarian. I vote for the person I feel to be the most qualified for the job.

Now, when I speak of qualifications, it involves much more than college diplomas and former political experience. Qualification for holding public office in my book includes honesty, integrity and the courage and willingness to go against your party and stand alone, if you think it's the right thing to do.

I am so sick of the dirty, under-handed things that are going on in Washington. I'm sick of congressmen and senators who sign their name to a bill they've never read, and don't know what it says."

Look Online!

When was the last time that you had your eyes checked or paid for a new pair of glasses for yourself? If it hasn’t been recently then you will definitely be in for a surprise when you come to that time because the prices have gone through the roof it seems. Just two months ago I went to get eyeglasses and my jaw dropped when they told me the price of nearly four hundred dollars!!

Then the other day friends, as I was searching the Internet I came across deals on eyeglasses as low as fifteen dollars!! I was not only amazed but I was also a bit mad that I had to pay so much when they could have been bought at a much cheaper price! This will definitely teach me to check online for things before I jump into buying something for such a high price, who knows, I may find incredible prices on other things as well.

So this is why I am posting this so that you might be aware that you can get these eyeglasses online a lot cheaper then you can at these stores in the malls and such, so friends, keep your eyes open and if you find a good deal that I might surf for , just let me know!

Marijuana Use 'Out of Control' Among RAW Stars

World Wrestling Entertainment updated its Wellness Policy last week to officially note that any positive test for marijuana will result in a $2,500 fine. Previously, it was a $1,000 fine.

The levied fine was in response to pot usage running rampant throughout the company. With that being said, usage is said to be way down among those on SmackDown, but still reportedly "out of control" among RAW talent.

In the case of alcohol, the policy states that WWE performers are prohibited from "using or consuming alcohol at any time within a twelve hour period prior to any WWE event or WWE scheduled performance."

Quote Of The Day

From Monica Crowley:

"As the Democratic grinches get ready to vote on the despised, destructive, and chaotic health care bill, they've been trying to dress this fruitcake up with distortions, distractions, and a big red bow. But with almost 60 percent of the American people opposing their incoherent mess, the Democrats are trying desperately to convince us that nothing says merry Christmas like socialized medicine and higher taxes."

Live and Learn

If you come to my page very often then you know I am really big into researching any certain topic that may just be on my mind that day. Now friends, there are so many ways of doing your research but I prefer using the Internet as all the information I will ever need is right at my fingertips and if I can’t find exactly what I am looking for I can at least find someone that could be able to help me!

So a search engine is so helpful when you are looking for the answers to your questions and there are several good search engines out there, some better then others there are search engines that help you search and then there are some like Torrents Search and Download that does what the name clues you in on.

So the fist step to any good research is to find the right search engine for the right job, so friends take your time in making your choices so to make your choices the right one and when doing your research I hope you find that pot at the end of the rainbow! So learn everything you can every day friends, because your brain needs exercise too!

I Wish That I Could Be Home On Christmas Day

Here is a link to the new Music Video of Inside Out's "I Wish That I Could Be Home On Christmas Day"! It's a tribute to the Troops past and present.

Please rate the video with 5 stars. The better the rating on You Tube, the more people will see it. Thanks!

C'mon Get Happy!

This is going to be a strange post for me since lately I have been happier then I have ever been, but I wasn’t always this happy and as a matter of fact at some points in my life I was terribly depressed. So many things can cause depression and to be honest I am not sure what brought mine on at either of these times.

I’ve recently decided to look into this because it seemed so strange to me that I could jump from depression to being the happy man that I am right now. Did you know friends that some depression could be brought on by a physical as well as an emotional one?

Health Depression can be a scary thing when it makes you hit rock bottom, or close to the bottom anyway, when you are wondering if there is any way to climb out of this despair that you might be feeling. I think had I asked for help in the way I was feeling and got that help I would have been a much happier human being a lot sooner then I was.

I guess what I am doing here is saying that, friends if you are feeling that depression and you are not sure where it is coming from then please just reach out to family or friends and find the root of it, and pull yourself out of that hole too!

Identity Of Golf Club Wielding Blonde On RAW

As seen last night on RAW, a golf club wielding blonde woman hopped the guard rail during the show's opening segment in a fruitless attempt to strike an individual dressed in a tiger costume. The identity of the female in question is Beverly Mullins, who briefly appeared on ECW a few months ago as a backstage announcer by the name of Courtney Taylor. Mullins is currently training in the company's Tampa based developmental promotion, Florida Championship Wrestling.

Bill O'Reilly's Quote of the Day

How Al Franken ever became a senator is beyond me, well other then stuffing the ballot box I am sure, but here is what Bill thought about Franken's outrageous behaviour last week:

"Americans, generally speaking, don't approve of that kind of behavior [characterized by Sen. Al Franken cutting off Sen. Joe Lieberman while speaking on the Senate floor]. But that's what we often get from the far left. Just look at their websites. Look at the savages spewing venom on cable television. Yes, it's true the right does some of that kind of stuff as well, but not nearly as much as the far left. I see the transcripts, ladies and gentlemen. I know who's saying what."

Could I Bother You For The Time?

Ok my wife is almost finished redoing our bedroom and now she wants to work on the television room, to which I said if that is what you want to do my love, have at it! So I my first thought was “big screen tv”! Her first thought was to look through all of the wall clocks that she could find and choose one that would fit the décor of the room.

Well friends, I thought to myself, that’s ok, she will get to the big screen tv that I want but until then I will be glad to sit back and have her ask me “do you like this clock or that clock?” or “Will this clock go better with this wall paper?”.

So I am very interested to see which direction she will turn on this pursuit for the perfect wall clock for our television room, but I am still hoping for that big screen television! I have to keep reminding her to watch prices and quality, because we want the best but sometimes she needs to be reminded that we are not a rich couple! She just looks at me and says “I know that, trust me” and so I do trust her and I am always pleased with the choices she makes, after all she did choose me for a husband!

Wake Up America!

Well Obama is bound and determined to push through every bill that he can in order to have a socialist government controlling all of us, the even bigger problem now is, we will be bankrupt before he is through!

Let me fill you in on a couple things Mr. President:

1. Global warming is a hoax and a fraud in order that you and the likes of you can raise taxes and gain more control

2. most Americans DO NOT want your crappy health care plan that will do nothing but drive us further and further in debt and guess what, to give the government more power

STOP THE INSANITY! STOP THE SPENDING!

RIP Chris Henry

A Look In The Mirror

I have been looking at myself a lot more in the mirror lately as I am getting a bit older then I was yesterday. Yes, I am getting a bit older and I am starting to look as if I am as well. So, as I always do I checked out the Internet on things I might be able to do to, well not turn back the clock, but pause it for a few minutes.

I checked out everything from wrinkle creams, to exercise machines, to Liposuction. I will be honest, for me it is more then just vanity but I am also looking into things so that I might lead a healthier life. I am a bit overweight and I plan to work out in order to tone my body but I am thinking why not get some help getting rid of this spare tire?

I do believe that everyone sees themselves this way at least every now and then they will look in the mirror and there is something that they want to change about themselves, it’s ok, I am the same way. So I guess my question is, if I want that change then why not take the steps to make that change?

The Latest On Ric Flair To TNA Wrestling

Things are looking good in regards to Ric Flair joining TNA as both sides are said to be close on money. However, a major point said is Flair wants a guaranteed contract with Panda Energy and not TNA, so he'd get paid in case the wrestling organization folds.

Celebrity Receives Tryout At The TNA iMPACT! Tapings

Jessie Godderz, who appeared on the CBS reality program Big Brother, received a tryout match at the last set of iMPACT! tapings in Orlando. WWE had shown interest in the bodybuilder as he spent the last few months working out at the company's developmental promotion. At the request of TNA president Dixie Carter, he worked a dark match against Alex Shelley as she wanted to see how he would perform in the ring before committing to any type of contract with him. Reviews were said to be mixed on his in-ring performance. Both Taz and Kurt Angle advised Godderz to prove he's serious by purchasing a pair of wrestling boots. With that being said, still no word yet on whether TNA intends to move forward with him.

On another note, many within TNA feel this is the latest case of Carter becoming enamored with featuring a reality television show star in her company, following the likes of Jenna Morasca, Jonny Fairplay and Joel "Truck" Anderson.

Looking For A Good Night's Sleep

I’ve been looking on the Internet for ideas of how to change my place around quite a bit so that it has my wife’s touch as well. She doesn’t really like the way our bedroom is laid out so I plan to give her free reign to do as she please when completing this task.

She’s looked on the Internet as well at different kinds of beds and she can’t seem to make up her mind on which she would prefer. Right now she is trying to decide between leather beds and wooden beds, I don’t mind if she takes her time about this because it’s something that she is showing a true passion in.

I’m just grateful that we still have a bed to sleep on as she makes her decision. I mean after all whatever she chooses we will have to live with for a very long time, I did mention to her though that we are not a rich couple and she needs to keep an eye on prices as well as quality.

She just gave me that look and told me that she knows what she is doing and friends when she tells me that, well, that is good enough for me!

WWE Marijuana & Alcohol Fines Increased

WWE has made another amendment to the wellness policy. The fine for a marijuana test failure or for breaking the policy's alcohol rule (WWE performers are prohibited from using or consuming alcohol at any time within a twelve hour period prior to any WWE event or WWE scheduled performance) will now be $2,500. The fine used to be $1,000.

Hope this works, but that's only my opinion

Quote Of The Day

Charlie Daniels celebrates Christmas the right way:

""I hope it's cold this Christmas. I hope it's cold enough to have a big log fire burning in the den. I hope it's cold enough so you can see your breath in the air outside.

Hazel just has a way with decorating, and our house looks like Christmas all over with five lighted trees, nativity scenes, nutcrackers of different sizes and figurines of Santa dressed in Western attire.

There's a lighted Christmas village and red ribbons and bows adorn the lights in the dining room. Even the front gate has a wreath and an old horse drawn wagon next to the flagpole is covered in lights.

We have a cross at the top of the hill that stays lit during the Christmas season along with some gaslights we turn on for the season and hope the wind won't keep blowing them out."

There's no doubt that it's Christmas at our house, and when I step off the bus after the year's touring is finished I'm all ready to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ with family and friends"

Research And Learn!

I have been looking into getting more insurance as of late; since I just got married I thought it would be a good idea to get better coverage. I’ve looked at all kind of insurance, from van insurance, car insurance, I have even checked out Short Term Insurance.

Since I have been looking into this I have learned a lot more then I used to know about this topic and I have found that the insurance that I have right now may be more expensive then what I might be needing to pay for the coverage that I am getting, so doing the research that I have done on insurance and insurance company s has really paid off for my wife and myself.

I do believe I will continue learning more about this topic as in this economy I need to be able to save as much money as possible. I thank God for the Internet every day, especially when I can find a way to save money on the insurance that I need and we should all be covered!

So do what I did friends, research online and save money on the insurance that you need as well! Happy searching!

Rock N Roll Hall Of Shame!

I am calling for a boycott of the "Rock n Roll" hall of fame. Let's face it friends, when a "band" such as ABBA gets in a hall of fame that is supposed to be for ROCK artists and a band like KISS has been overlooked for 10 years then this hall is a freakin' sham!

If I were KISS and when the time comes that they want to induct them I would tell them to take that "honor" and shove it!

Someone needs to start a real rock and roll hall of fame, lord knows we have none now!

Bill O'Reilly's Quote of the Day

Another good one From Bill:

"Most Americans want good health care for themselves and their fellow citizens. And I hope this enormous bill will provide that, but it is a hope. Nobody knows for sure what will happen. What we do know is that it'll cost trillions of dollars, money the USA doesn't have. Since the Democrats took over Congress in 2007, government spending has risen almost 23%. America is now poised to owe $14 trillion. And that's dangerous because nobody's ever going to feel well if the country goes bankrupt."

If It's Television That You Want....

Well friends, the time has come and my wife will be coming to join me from her native home in the Philippines on December 22nd, so I really need to get on the ball and get things completely ready for her and that includes making sure that she will be able to see all of her favorite television programs.

So I have been checking with Direct TV just to see if they would have those channels available that she loves so well and of course they do, so there is another good reason to love my DirectTV!

I can’t wait to see her face when she has the surprise of her programs being available to her here in the good old USA. Satellite Directv is the best thing I have found when it comes to getting all the programming that I want and it’s always at a price I can afford as well, so happy days are here again!

Visa Approved!

well friends my wife's visa has been approved and she will be here within a week, so maybe you will be thankful that you wont have to read these post about how excited I am for her to be coming here soon. now you will have to read about how happy and excited that I am to have her with me!

Sorry for boring you friends, I just love her that much!

Bret Hart To Host RAW?

In a strange turn, WWE teased Bret Hart hosting an upcoming edition of RAW during this week's broadcast after Vince McMahon presented the Slammy for Guest Host of the Year alongside Dennis Miller.

Vince asked Miller who he would book as guest host if it were up to him, to which he replied Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

Vince said he didn't think Bret would be interested in doing anything.

Miller then asked the audience.

Following their applause, Miller said, "The people have spoken."

Isn't That Cool?

I know a lot of you will think I am crazy for even thinking about this right now but I am one that tries to think ahead. Well winter is here, but I am thinking about summer and how hot my house gets during those three months. So now you are wondering what the heck I am talking about.

I am talking about getting a much better air conditioner and I have already started looking. I have checked the sites of several air conditioner companies and I have also checked out those that not only supply the air conditioner but also air conditioner parts such as an A/C compressor just in case that need arises as well.

I know what you are thinking, you are thinking that I am crazy to even be thinking about air conditioning when it is so cold outside. Well friends, maybe you are right, but I really do believe in being prepared even when the thing that I am being prepared for is several months away. What’s the old saying, better safe then sorry? I like the thought of being safe and cool in those long summer months, how about you? I thought you might agree!

The Latest On Brock Lesnar

To update the health condition of UFC Heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar, Dana White said over the weekend that we'll find out in approximately a month whether UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar will need the major surgery to repair the ravages of the intestinal disease diverticulitis.

White claimed that if Lesnar does indeed need that operation that an interim UFC Heavyweight title would be created and given to someone while Lesnar continues to recover.

In the past, when interim champions are crowned, the linear champion returns and unifies the title with the interim champion in his first fight back.

As of now no fight is rumored for the interim title, if it were needed to be created, but Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Cain Velasquez on February 21st would be a good possibility.

Lesnar's trainer Greg Nelson told MMAWeekly.com last week that, "… he's walking around and moving around. He's not ready to jump into that cage, that's for sure at this point…. I'm not 100 percent sure right now [when he'll start training again]. We're not really pushing it right now. We're just letting things take their course so he can be 100-percent healthy when he starts to train. He'll probably start lifting weights to get his strength built up and do the exercise bike when he starts to get going, and shadowbox when he gets to feel better. But right now, he's just taking the time to properly heal."

It's Beginning To Look Alot Like Christmas

It’s definitely starting to feel a lot like Christmas, and everything that goes along with Christmas is making it’s way to our doors. I have been in the “spirit” so much that I have been checking online for anything Christmas! During my little adventure in searching for Christmas on the Internet I found a website for Christmaspace!

This is a place where you can upload your Christmas Videos and Christmas Pictures and share them with others that are doing the same. There is nothing like a little Christmas Sharing to get someone in that spirit!

I will tell you that this site really gave me back that Christmas feeling that I have been searching for and it could do the same for you friends, check it out and share it with your friends, after all isn’t that one of the best things about this time of year, sharing?

3 New Champions Crowned At TLC

Here is a rundown of the title changes that took place at TLC Sunday night:

* Drew McIntyre defeated John Morrison to become the new WWE Intercontinental Champion.

* Sheamus defeated John Cena to become the new WWE Champion.

* DX defeated Chris Jericho & Big Show to become the new Unified Tag Team Champions

Quote Of The Day

I found a really good quote, concerning the fraud that is global warming, from radio talk host Laura Ingraham:

"...Denmark is hosting the biggest 'greeniac' blowout the world has ever seen. The Obama administration has sent scores of high level delegates to the big eco-party to convince the world that we've made a U-turn away from the troglodyte days of the Bush administration when climate change denial was the rage. Yet the biggest deniers are those who refuse to confront the truth about dishonest scientific practices... The people most guilty of willful ignorance in this debate are those who ignore evidence of a blatant scientific cover-up, as they shout down anyone who disagrees."

Let's Get Real Time

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of LeapFish Inc. All opinions are 100% mine.

Times are changing faster and faster these days, seems every time I turn around there is something new that is staring me in the face. Some are good and some are not so good but lately it’s been more good then bad.

Let’s take the Internet for example, I remember a time when chat was just typing to someone in a chat room not know what they looked like (who ever heard of cams back then) and as far as a social network, well let’s just go back to chat because that was about it.

Well the newest thing out there is very exciting actually and I am about to tell you about it, because it is an important step for online search. Now there is something called real time search, leapfish used a social media to promote the launch of their Real-time search and just this week Google used social media to promote their release of Real-Time search.

I watched two videos that showed me what all of this really meant and I am including it in this post so you can watch them and understand better as well. I am really excited about this as I will be able to get the latest (and I do mean the latest) on, well, everything and anything and so can you!

Hulk Hogan: My TNA Debut Will Pull A 3.0 Rating

The Right After Wrestling show on Sirius radio sent out the following announcement, regarding their interview with Hulk Hogan, and his claims as far as his TNA debut goes…

HOGAN SAYS THAT TNA IMPACT RATINGS WILL "TRIPLE" ON JANUARY 4

When interviewed by Arda Ocal and Corey Erdman of the "Right After Wrestling" program on SIRIUS 98, Hulk Hogan predicted that Nielson ratings would triple to a 3.0 on his debut appearance on TNA Impact on Monday January 4. Hogan went on to list names such as AJ Styles and Matt Morgan as guys with "something there" and that he will look to mold and "bring to life".

The full interview will air on "Right After Wrestling" on Monday night December 14 at 11pm EST on SIRIUS Channel 98, Hardcore Sports Radio.

(yeah right)

Bill O'Reilly Quote Of The Day

"Your humble correspondent believes that most Americans do not like the federal government telling them what to do. It's as simple as that... The left loves that kind of big government intrusion. They want Washington to have as much power over you as possible, falsely believing that government will eventually impose social justice... Basically, conservatives want power centralized locally. The right believes that individual freedom should trump federal interference. The left disagrees. And that's what this health care debate is all about."

Check This Out!

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Bidazzled. All opinions are 100% mine.

I really do love doing this blog, but I love it even more when I find things like what I am about to tell you. Have you ever checked out those penny auctions on the Internet? They can be fun and you can get some good deals, but I have found an auctions site that will let you get name brand things and Auction winners usually save over 80% off retail!

Now wait, I am not finished yet friends, let me tell you how this works! Bids are purchased in advance and then used to bid on merchandise. The price increases a few cents with each bid placed and a few seconds are added to the countdown clock to give others a chance to bid. The auction ends when no other bids are placed. So if a new laptop ends at just a dollar, then you win the laptop for a dollar!

But there’s even more, with Bidazzled there are no losers! If you don't win, you receive up to 50 Bonus Bids as a thank you for participating, and you can purchase the auction item less the investment you had in the auction!

If you win, Bidazzled typically make an offer to buy the item back for either cash (paypal or check), cash and bids, or bids! Everyone wins! Want to know what makes this the most special auction site on the Internet for me? Bidazzled was designed and created to fund a lung cancer charity: The Ruch Foundation. Now that is another awesome reason to get involved in this!

If you use this code until January 15th (all you have to do is enter it on the registration page, there is no obligation or cost of any kind) Blog: BBP1202A and Twitter: BTP1202A you will receive 15 Additional Bids! Happy Shopping!

John Cena's New Flim

The Hollywood Reporter has an article up on Brothers Keeper, a WWE Films project, starring John Cena. The cast will include Patricia Clarkson, Devon Graye, Madeleine Martin and Danny Glover.

Bill O'Reilly's Quote of the Day

"There is no question that millions of Americans are fed up with both established parties and want something new, something vibrant, something that reflects values and beliefs they have. To say that a Tea Party or a Bull Moose Party or whatever should not be established because it would help a sitting liberal president is anti-democratic. We need more choices in America because the same old-same old is not working. So three cheers for three parties. Whatever the new party is called, it can't do any worse than the old parties. Can it?"

Are You Ready For Some Football?

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Jones Soda. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love being at home on the couch on Sunday afternoons especially this time of the year, when football keeps me entertained most of the day. I have really enjoyed professional football for years. Now I know when most people think Sunday football, they think about having a few beers with friends, well as a recovering alcoholic, I have to find another way of enjoying the game.

I have looked into different drinks to enjoy while watching the game and I came across Jones Soda in their limited edition of Seattle Seahawks collector 4 packs of cream soda, green apple and berry lemonade and I though now that’s a good drink to have for a party, I only wish that those four packs included a Cincinnati Bengal’s limited edition as well, maybe I will contact them and ask them to do just that.

I really enjoy a good cream soda and I do have a friend that is a huge fan of the Seattle Seahawks, I do believe this would make a great gift for him and since Christmas is just around the corner I just might have to get him a couple of four packs! How about you friends, care to join me in drinking a Jones Soda?

Quote Of The Day

From the brain of country legend Charlie Daniels

"It's just about as predictable as the changing of the seasons. Every year as the Christmas decorations get taken out of the attic and dusted off, here come the ACLU and their assorted boo birds screaming about how a nativity scene in a public place is a violation of the separation of church and state.

First of all the phrase "separation of church and state" didn't come from the constitution or any of the other federal papers our founders wrote and ratified but from a personal letter written by Thomas Jefferson and taken totally out of context by the Grinches at the American Civil Liberties Union."

Jeff Hardy Update: The Latest From Today's Court Hearing

Former WWE superstar Jeff Hardy was set to appear in court this morning for a probable cause hearing to determine whether there is enough evidence stemming from his September 11th drug arrest to see if the case would proceed to a grand jury. The grand jury would then decide whether to prosecute Hardy for the various felonies she's been charged with.

The hearing has been rescheduled once again and the next court appearance for Hardy will be on January 27, 2010.

The original probable cause hearing on November 4th was rescheduled to today because certain drug test results had not been completed in time. No word yet on why today's hearing did not take place.

The Sound Of Music

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Yamaha. All opinions are 100% mine.

I have recently found a new toy for my television and music enjoyment. Most of you already have an iPod, but I just recently got one and let me tell you it definitely makes my workouts a lot more enjoyable as I can do that workout while watching a favorite movie or listening some awesome music.

It is amazing though the way I am, I find this new “toy” for myself and then I am not satisfied until I can make it even better and I have done that recently as well when I found the Yamaha PDX-60. This powerful speaker system allows me to enjoy my music and movies wirelessly from anywhere in the room through the powerful Yamaha PDX-60 Speaker Dock.

With this system I get Instant connection, no sound delays and quality sound with deep, rich bass and when I tell you that it makes my workout experience so much better, then you can believe that is a fact!

Would I recommend this for you, my friends, for your favorite games, music, and movies? Yes, I definitely would and I definitely do! So check it out friends, you won’t be disappointed, I know I wasn’t! Have fun friends and do it in style!

Bill O'Reilly's Quote of the Day

Bill talks about Obama's speech last night:

"...the president should be as tough as he can be. And I didn't see that tonight. Did you? I did not see a Winston Churchill-type performance. The president was slick, but did he rally the world to fight the horrendous Taliban? I don't think so, but I could be wrong. Summing up, the president's speech tonight was OK, but not exactly the Gettysburg Address..."

A Thought

I have just finished the book "RING OF HELL: The true story of Chris Benoit & the fall of the pro wrestling industry" that was written by Matthew Randazzo V. I must say that I see pro wrestling in a brand new light.

I am now not so surprised by all of the premature deaths of wrestlers, I am sick that I will even type the name of Vince McMahon in this post after reading what kind of a guy he really is, I feel like pro wrestling has not only killed those wrestlers but is responsible for the deaths of Nancy and Daniel Benoit also.

I will continue to post some wrestling news and rumors here only because I truly love the "sport", I just don't respect it anymore.

The Christmas Gift

Well friends, I have been looking through Direct TV Packages looking for just the right deal for my parent’s Christmas gift and let me tell you that this is not an easy task, they have so much to offer and the Direct TV Deals are excellent. I know what their tastes are as far as television and let me tell you friends that they have different tastes

Dad loves sports and westerns and my mother loves romance movies and sitcoms, so I need to find a package that will please them both and I believe I have. Direct TV Offers the best packages for television and movies and this is apparently why they are the number one satellite television company.

So, now that I have chosen the package, I do believe this will be the best Christmas gift that I have ever gotten my parents. The smile on their faces will definitely be thanks enough!

Hulk/Linda Divorce Is Nasty

The Hulk/Linda Hogan divorce remains messy, as the two are now fighting over light fixtures according to TampaBay.com.

Bill O'Reilly's Quote of the Day

Another one from Bill:

"President Obama is positioning himself as a negotiator. And that's fine, up to a point. The worst thing the USA could do is start yet another fight without exhausting all other options. But as Stratfor reports, the Iranian mullahs, Putin, and others, believe the president is weak and therefore will continue to defy him until something changes."
