Who Me?

It just hasn't happened.  Winning the lottery is not one of the things that will ever happen to me.  I'm not lucky and I may as well accept the fact.  How much money have I seen being spent of those tickets?  It's a frenzy at the lotto machines during the times of the big jackpots drawings.  I've watched money roll down the drain in a frantic attempt to be the "one"!  That big winner of the "Power Ball" would be very nice to be.  But I know better and that's just too bad.

Photos of Kate

Looking at the proper and improper way of doing things is a way of life with the royal couple.  They are young and wish to have some sort of private life, I'm sure.  You wonder how this will ever happen considering the nature of their famous lives?  Kate and William are royal subjects and expected to carry on as such.  The Queen can assume that proper training has been accomplished for the youngsters, but you know how kids can be. 
I hope that the royal pair can be given a small part of their lives to enjoy while they are still young.  The news media needs to let them live to be old like the Queen.  One day it may be that William will be King and that would be a nice thing.

Gaming

I was involved in a gaming community for at least 2 years.  It gave me the benefits of a possible jackpot that would be doubled, should I win.  Naturally, that didn't happen, and so I decided that it was time to stop all the high payments I was making to have an account with them.  I can still play their games, and have the chance to win.  I don't expect that to happen, but one never knows how things might turn out.  It would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath.

User's IDs At Risk

All of the 10 most popular apps on Facebook were transmitting users' IDs to outside companies. The apps, ranked by research company Inside Network Inc., include Zynga Game Network Inc.'s FarmVille, with 59 million users, and Texas HoldEm Poker and FrontierVille. Three of the top 10 apps, including FarmVille, also have been transmitting personal information about a user's friends to outside companies.
Anyone can use an ID number to look up a person's name, using a standard Web browser, even if that person has set all of his or her Facebook information to be private. For other users, the Facebook ID reveals information they have set to share with "everyone," including age, residence, occupation and photos. The Wall Street Journal found that one data-gathering firm, RapLeaf Inc., had linked Facebook user ID information obtained from apps to its own database of Internet users, which it sells. RapLeaf also transmitted the Facebook IDs it obtained to a dozen other firms, the Journal found.
This is scary and worries me........I just thought I would put this on here for my reader's to see, in case they were worried like I am......

Gamble Online

I can remember when it was considered a great vacation to be able to go to Vegas, and gamble.  You would either drive or book a flight and spend the weekend at one of the large casinos.  It was a grand time, if you came away with winnings, but many times people left without a cent. 
Later other states legalized gambling, and you found places closer to home to go and gamble.  It has become a lucrative establishment for many states and local  business owners.  You find that some of the Indian Reservations also have established a good business in the gambling world.
Now, we have an even better way of gambling right in your own home.  All you need is a computer, a bank account and knowledge of how to download files and your on your way.  Once you download an online casino   you will need to register for an account with the website.   Most of the online gambling  
 casinos are established an of good reputation.  Make sure to check out the website and it's reviews, before investing money into your account.
Once you have your account set up, then you can deposit certain amounts of money into your account with which to make bets.  Most of the time the website will make you deposit and that makes you have more money to play with.  I have tried it, but I'm just a novice and would loose my money to the people who are really good at playing the games.  Spending your time gambling online is fun, and if your good at the games, then it's for sure you will be a winner.  Winning whets my appetite and makes me want to go to an
online casino gambling casino more often.  Alas, my money isn't what is needed to keep up with the "big boys", so I have to play when it's available. 
If you have a flair for gambling and enjoy the competition that's involved, then this is a great place to join.  I suggest that you get into a game that your comfortable with and get started with the winning.  My son, loves these online casinos, and you can be sure that he's on one of them if he's not at work.  It's a good way to pass the time, enjoy yourself, and win some money.  Pay outs are great too.
