I recently received a Gift Basket from a friend. It contained 2 bottles of wine, assorted cheeses, crackers and some golf balls and golf tees. It was such a thoughtful gift!
There are a number of very good reasons why sending a gift basket to someone special is such a good idea!
With the increase in confidence with ordering on line and improved websites, ordering and sending gift baskets is a very time saving and effortless procedure.
Gift Baskets come in a variety of sizes and price ranges which is ideal for the budget conscious shopper.
They provide excellent value and can be tailored to particular occasions or persons. Themed baskets provide the sender with the ability to send a very thoughtful and personal gift. There are so many different types of themes you can start with including baby gift basket, Christmas gift basket, mothers day gift basket, fathers day gift basket, dog lover gift basket, cat lover gift basket, golf gift basket, tennis gift basket, housewarming gift basket, lovers gift basket… the list is endless.
Choosing a basket on line means you can shop from the comfort of your home. No driving, no parking, no standing in line. Shipping is a very safe and efficient way to send gifts and fees are quite reasonable and sometimes free.
The recipient is often pleasantly surprised and happy (like I was when I received my recent basket). Gift Baskets convey the feelings of the sender in a way that is unique and personal.
Most of all, gift baskets are fun to send and receive!

We Must Stop This Immediately
Have you noticed that stairs are getting steeper. Groceries are heavier. And, everything is farther away. Yesterday I walked to the corner and I was dumbfounded to discover how long our street had become!
And, you know, people are less considerate now, especially the young ones. They speak in whispers all the time!  If you ask them to speak up they just keep repeating themselves, endlessly mouthing the same silent message until they’re red in the face!  What do they think I am, a lip reader?
I also think they are much younger than I was at the same age. On the other hand, people my own age are so much older than I am. I ran into an old friend the other day and she has aged so much that she didn’t even recognize me..
I got to thinking about the poor dear while I was combing my hair this morning, and in doing so, I glanced at my own reflection well, REALLY NOW – even mirrors are not made the way they used to be!
Another thing, everyone drives so fast these days! Â You’re risking life and limb if you happen to pull onto the freeway in front of them. All I can say is, their brakes must wear out awfully fast, the way I see them screech and swerve in my rear view mirror…
Clothing manufacturers are less civilized these days. Why else would they suddenly start labelling a size 10 or 12 dress as 18 or 20? Â Do they think no one notices? The people who make bathroom scales are pulling the same prank. Â Do they think I actually ‘believe’ the number I see on that dial? Â HA! Â I would never let myself weigh that much! Â Just who do these people think they’re fooling?
I’d like to call up someone in authority to report what’s going on — but the telephone company is in on the conspiracy too: they’ve printed the phone books in such  small type that no one could ever find a number in there!
All I can do is pass along this warning:
WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!
Unless something drastic happens, pretty soon everyone will have to suffer these awful indignities.
PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO WE CAN GET THIS CONSPIRACY STOPPED!
PS: I am sending this to you in a larger font size, because something has happened to my computer’s fonts – they are smaller than they once were.
and without FRIENDS and FAMILY Behind you!

I just tried a new program, Blog Copy, which secretly tracks what readers are copying from my blogs and website(s). The program is Free, is very easy to install, and provided statistics almost instantly. I was extremely interested to see what text and images in my blogs were copied and shared. The data displayed in the Dashboard is fascinating. I believe the information will help me to understand what readers like about my posts and hopefully help me write better posts and gain more visits and page views. This program really is a A Blogger’s Secret Weapon!

About the Challenge
GE’s Ecomagination Challenge is a $200 million call to action for businesses, entrepreneurs, innovators, and students to share their best ideas and come together to take on one of the world’s toughest challenges – building the next-generation power grid to meet the needs of the 21st century.
http://challenge.ecomagination.com/ideas
Power outages and power quality disruptions cost US businesses $100 billion per year or more. Smart grid technologies have the potential to improve grid connections and reduce power disturbances more than 75% by 2020, saving customers in excess of $50 billion from a reduction in outages.
GE is looking at improving grid efficiency by three means: reducing losses, reducing voltage and improving system reliability.

Only in America ……do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
