Happy Birthday, Girlie!
It’s Leigh-Ann’s birthday and I done made her up a card with my mad skillz. Click on it, with your sound on.

Dear Children of My Brothers,
Watch this video and realize exactly what gets you favored grandchild status. And, you know, could it hurt to write to your aunts or uncles? If you write thank you notes, you get gifts the next year...I’m just sayin’. We’re modern folk, and all have email and accept email just as easily as handwritten cards with stamps. Oh, and Hallmark, they have free e-cards. Again, I’m just sayin’. Really, who am I to worry about you getting more holiday/birthday gifts in the future. Perhaps you decided years ago that the thank you part was too troublesome, so you decided to forgo the gifts. That’s perfectly fine, as long as you aren’t wondering why you don’t get gifts anymore.
Updated: Whoops, I got this from YouTube, I no longer have any bubbes. But yes, this woman does look and sound amazing for being over 100.

terribly early in the morning
Earn Some Pocket Change By Surfing The Web
Leigh-Ann did some research and found out that this company used to be AllAdvantage way back in the early Wild West days of the internet. We both had accounts then and I do remember them paying. So, what the heck, we both signed up. Right now they’re still in beta and they’ll only, at first, be paying for you to surf five hours a month with your AGLOCO toolbar. But hey, small change is better than no change these days. So, sign up - AGLOCO signup. It can’t hurt to try, as their previous company was reputable as far as I remember. And, if the money can pay for my new Keurig pods, I’ll be happy. All I need is 50 cents/day. 
Plus, I’m going to get rid of my Alexa toolbar because I haven’t been using it much lately, so another toolbar replacing it won’t even be noticeable. I must admit, their company name looks kind of ugly. Oh well, not my company, not my problem, I guess. So, get in the queue for the toolbar - they’re waiting until they have 7 million signups or something. I think they’re a tenth of the way there, but on the internet, that could probably happen in a couple of days. To read more about the company and their plan, so you don’t feel like it’s a scam, please read their blog - http://aglocoblog.blogspot.com/
But hey, while I’m here, you know what IS a creepy scam? Soulcast. They give you 50% of the profit from the AdSense they put on your blog, while they make money off every single Soulcast blog’s ads. If you want AdSense on your blog, put it on your own blog and keep 100% of the AdSense profits. They act like they don’t allow graphics because they want their blogs to be “serious” - no, they don’t want graphics because it’ll add to their bandwidth, which will leave less of your earnings for them to keep. They’re always advertising as if writing a blog on Soulcast could be considered a job. Yeah, right. Ask even the popular bloggers how much they make from their AdSense, and then halve that...and with Soulcast, you won’t even approach that.
