I just received an email from a cousin that lives in a very rural area of Australia.  I was so surprised to get an email from her!  The last I’d heard from her was by US Mail, and she complained that she lived in such a rural area that she could not get Internet Access!  That news alone was a big shock to me because I’ve had Internet access for such a long time; it seemed to me that she would have had Internet access for a while now too!

As the information age matures, there will be more demand for domain names and webhosting.  I think it will be very interesting to see how this develops as time goes on.  I know that more people are turning to the Internet for information, research, social networking, and shopping.  I think it is amazing to learn about products and services that a few years ago I would not have known about at all!  The Internet truly does make the world smaller; making so many more things within easy reach to anyone who has a computer and Internet access!

It seems to me that more and more of my friends and acquaintances are interesting in creating their own websites.  It just seems like a good way to get the word out about whatever you are interested in.  Many of the websites are about sharing interests about things like geneaology, or interests like clubs for a type of classic car, or breed of dog.  What a huge variety is out there!

As the Internet grows, there will be more people needing to learn about there webhosting options.  A great place to learn about those options is the webhostinggeeks.com website.  They review and rank many of the leading webhosting services, making it easier for the consumer to decide which service best fits their needs.

We need new shutters for our house.  Since we live in a duplex, beside my hubby’s parents, we want to co-ordinate with them how the outside of the house is fixed up.  Last year we put new vinyl siding on the house; this year we were planning to put new shutters on it.  My mother-in-law is coming over tomorrow to sit down with me and look at different shutter styles from the larsonshutter.com website to see if there are any styles and colors that we both like.  They have a great variety of styles and colors, so I’m sure we will be able to pick out something!

I was reading on the telegraph.co.uk website that there is a Nebraska state Senator named Ernie Chambers that filed a lawsuit last year against God!   I had not heard that before now, he apparently filed the case September of 2007.  Just this week a judge dismissed the case without prejudice, saying that God cannot be sued because he has no known address!

Boy, it sure takes all kinds, doesn’t it!  What a nutcase!  I hope that Senator does not win his re-election bid, we don’t need nutcases like that in our government!

I was reading an article on the Time.com website about how a town called Riviera Beach Florida made it illegal for anyone to wear pants that dropped below the waist, exposing underwear or skin.  I know that the law was intended to be directed at guys who wear saggy pants that show their underwear, but it amused me because I had to think about all of the young women that I know who wear “low rise” pants that are below their waist, that exposes their beautiful midriff sections.  I had to wonder how many of these girls would get ticketed by police for wearing their clothes that way?  I just cannot even imagine these lithe young women wearing pants that come up to their waist - they would freak out!
