Health Insurance

Health insurance is a very hot topic in the news these days, mostly about Obamacare and how good or bad the whole thing is or will be. Hey, it's health insurance, something everyone needs but most cannot afford. I know because I cannot afford it. If you live in or around Burlington then you need to talk to the folks that offer burlington health insurance. Their staff will do their best to get you the coverage that you need with premiums that you can afford. Don Allred Insurance, located on South Church St. in Burlington, has been providing health insurance for N.C. residents since 1977. In 1983, they started offering coverage with Blue Cross/Blue Shield, North Carolina’s premier health insurance provider. Blue Cross/Blue Shield is a company that has excellent health insurance coverage. I used to have Blue Cross when I worked at the college. I could afford it then because the school paid for it. It's great to have health insurance because your body doesn't care when it gets sick or hurt. Just one of those things you do not need until you desperately need it. Don't put it off any longer, give them a call today at 1 (800) 280-2230 or visit the website to get yourself a quote. Here's to your good health in the coming new year!

Give Him A Raise

A waiter in Houston put his job on the line and is receiving praise after he told a table he was unwilling to serve them. The waiter, Michael Garcia, was waiting on a family of regulars who have a 5-yr old child (Milo) with down syndrome. Another family he was serving made comments about the noises the child was making so he moved the annoyed party to another table. The waiter then overheard "special needs children need to be special somewhere else," from the table. That's when he informed them he would be unable to serve them. They left the restaurant. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152464943985273&set=a.10150737382630273.715282.131281285272&type=1&theater

Real Estate App

There appears to be an app for just about everything these days with no shortage of peoples ideas for cell phone applications. If they can think it, there will eventually be an app. Real estate is no exception now with the introduction of the goconnect real estate crm app. This app will help real estate agents connect with clients and help them automate some of their workload without taking away the personal parts of the client-agent relationship. Seems like a win-win situation for all concerned. People like apps as much as they like their cell phones. Some are for fun and games and some, like this one, are for serious business. Make no mistake, real estate transactions are not something one should take lightly. The client is looking to purchase property either to live in or as an investment for their future. Agents are there trying hard to make a living, being paid by commission. Commission sales jobs of any kind are hard, I have been there and failed so I know. If you are in the market for real estate or are a real estate agent then you should check out this app and add it to your cell phone.

FUCK IT'S COLD The End.

Portable Stands

If you are in a band or are a singer then chances are you need to practice your music so that when you are performing it is the best that you can make it. Unless you are a musical genius that hears a song once and then has it down pat perfectly you need to practice and rehearse the music. When you are performing then you want all of the stage to yourself as much as is possible with other band members but when you are practicing or rehearsing then you need the music in front of you more so you need a stand to put the sheets on/ The problem with music stands is that they are awkward things and always seem to be in the way when you do not need them. Problem solved now though with a portable music stand. The Peak music stand folds up and fits into its own little travel case so that you can take it anywhere you want to go or just toss it in a corner somewhere in your practice room and it won't take up much space nor will it be in the way. Pretty neat!

Black Days

It's that shopping season again, time for Black Friday and all that stuff.

Black Friday started a week early online, and then one day early in stores. Black Thanksgiving I suppose lol

Cyber Monday started a week early online and continues as I write this blog post. Black everyday lol

Here is my thought... If you can sell me these expensive items at such a cheap price on Black Days, how about just do it all year long so I don't have to face those ugly crowds?
