I Hate Spam

I hate spam. I would never spam anyone on purpose. People who engage in spam are mucking up the internet for us legitimate people who want a connection to their audience yet like myself would be devastated to ever be accused of spamming anyone.

Some people do not know the difference between actual spam and something they obviously not paying much attention signed up for (There is a big difference). So that is why I do not ask for email addresses to access my content. There will be times when I would love to correspond with you I just won't do it in an automated fashion.

For myself individual attention is best. May take longer yet I have always preferred quality over quantity any day and I won't knowingly represent any company who I feel does not honor this code of ethics.

                                                             I hate spam quotes

The difference between a stranger sending you a message that you might be interested in at a very low volume level, no repetition, just sending it to very few people, and that being done as spam - those things get close enough that you want to be careful never to filter out something that's legitimate.

Bill Gates

SPAM is taking e-mail, which is a wonderful tool, and exploiting the idea that it's very inexpensive to send mail.

Bill Gates

Every major communication tool on the Internet has spam and abuse problems. All email services, blogging services and social networks have to dedicate a significant amount of resources and time to fighting abuse and protecting their users.

Review of Cafe Cup

This Review of Cafe Cup comes to you as I was lucky enough to get a Keurig for Christmas. I had used one before at a friends house and was thinking about purchasing one yet I was concerned about the cost of K-cups. I had been researching the As seen on TV Cafe Cups and planned to try them when I bought a Keurig.

Well I was even lucky enough to get some for Christmas (from the same person that bought the maker)

I couldn't wait for the weekend to come so I could try out my new appliance. I used the K Cup sample pack of 5 to test my machine and wasted a Vanilla flavor K Cup. Hind site being 20/20 I should of used the decaf for the tester.

I got out my other gift a big thing of Yuban. I opened it up and used the handy scoop that came in the Cafe Cup package. First I washed the cup then filled it up (loosely not quite to the top) and closed the lid and lined up and placed where I had been placing the K Cups. I pressed brew and next thing I knew I had a delicious cup of coffee that tasted like silk to me. After several cups I tried brewing a second cup from the same K Cup and it tasted okay it was just more watered down then I would like. So for me it will be a new cup each time. I highly recommend the Cafe Cup.

I usually use the same cup each time but the package comes with 4! 2 Red and 2 black and the handy scoop. Well worth the 9.99 or what ever cost they may be. You will definitely save money as far as buying the K Cups versus buying bulk and just think you can try as many flavors as you like. Complete freedom just how I like it. 

I give these an A+. I hope my review of Cafe Cup and pictures help in your decision to buy these or not.

I don't know about you but I am ready for a cup now. It's so fun trying out new creamers as well. The possibilities are endless.

Fake People

Fake people. Can we ration with each other? Most people are somewhat intelligent (especially if you are reading this) and we can see right through your fakeness. We see you being all sweet to people above you and treating those you feel are beneath you like dirt. Oh your nice to us sometimes like when the people that are higher up then you think you are nice to us. And everyone. But fake people only worry about their appearance and how much money they are making for themselves and the company. None of them care about you because your just there to do their work.

And guess who gets all the glory? Oh but mess up. Actually do something wrong so that they look bad then your in for it. They know there's a ton of other people that need a job so your dispensable to them. And that is not right but think about what it took to train you. That takes time. And sadly they end up losing great employees over it. And it does bug them they will have to retrain a new person their immature brain is happy that they won. Won what? Whatever you believe in there is a higher power I believe and score IS being taken. Not by man so punishment will be severe and the best part JUST so why fake it. Being positive will work out so much better for you in the long run because you also have to worry about karma. What goes around truly does come around. It may take an hour it may take 5 years or more but trust and believe you will get yours. It would be nice if people who have the fake gene not be allowed to breed so that the mature responsible adults of the world could thrive.

There would most likely be world wide peace. Imagine that. I think fakeness is an evil trait. I have seen it hurt to many people and I am frustrated that it is still so rampant and that people have no backbone to stand up for others. Albert Einstein was so brilliant he saw the trait way back when. But people are people. Be wary about who you trust and who you let in your circle. Some may not be fake people simply if they have a mean girl or other type friend that is popular they may want to imitate them in hopes of being popular themselves. So it may just be a phase. I have talked to tens of thousands of people throughout my many years working in different industries of customer service. I have talked to super rich people at my days with American Express down to super poor. I grew up in a melting pot environment where from a young age my friends were of all races and I was taught about all races. I did have southern relatives who did not have this same experience as me and so there opinions were different but luckily for me growing up like that I never knew prejudice to me we are all human beings. I felt at home being with all people of a different race. That was my normal and I grew up open minded and a free spirit. I also have extremely high morals and ethics. I don't believe in lying cheating or stealing. I am a dream employee. Fake people can't stand me. I do my work work with little no supervision and whatever I am doing I try my best to do it exactly as you tell me. And I have done this for years.

I am naturally happy and it seems that some people can't stand people that are naturally happy and they try and try and try to squash it and that's okay because I have found God and he led me to my dream job. Working for myself! And soon I will be able to hire others to help me and I will be able to afford it thereby helping them help me. Good karma. From now on I want to live the rest of my life helping people. That is what I am good at. I can't do it for free because I to have to survive but I am fair. If you are interested in a life coach let me know. I feel I am ready for that part of my life to flourish. I am a discrete private person and if you would like to meet with me or one of my team send an email please. We can communicate through email and then I will talk further about pricing for our life coach services. We have many writers on this site.

My goal is for good to persevere over evil. If your mostly good and have just a touch of evil for funniness you are alright by us. Fake people will no longer be tolerated. Give yourself permission for positive and your life will start improving. And if you are currently dealing with a member of the fake committee please try your best to ignore them. You can overcome this. Smile. We have to many problems in the world to have to worry about miner differences with each other fake people. We should never be each other and by each other I mean mankind's enemy.

Motivational Quotes

Entrepreneur Quotes

Ever since I can remember I have always looked for ways to make extra money as my family didn't have much money when I grew up so if I wanted anything extra (we had all our necessities thank goodness) I had to earn the money to buy it.

I walked and bathed neighbors dogs, weeded gardens, basically any extra task someone was willing to pay me for and then when I was 16 I got my first job after school at a fast food restaurant. I have always been a bargain shopper so I love to save and earn money where I can. On this page I will provide links to legitimate places to earn extra $ and inspiring entrepreneur quotes to give motivation.

If you are looking to start your own website I recommend the site I went though you can read more about it here. It is super afforable (we are talking 1.00 a day!!) I had little to no technical skills and it was okay because they put everything together step by step. It is a lot of work it's not a get rich quick scheme or anything like that. Like anything in life you get into it what you put in.

 Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.

 Winston Churchill

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Steve Jobs

Fall Quotes

Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting
and autumn a mosaic of them all.

Stanley Horowitz

Once more the liberal year laughs out
O'er richer stores than gems or gold:
Once more with harvest song and shout
Is nature's boldest triumph told.

   John Greenleaf Whittier

It is that beautiful time of year that the leaves fall and the trees change color. It is a time of exceptional beauty and almost makes me okay that the warm days of summer are now over. With these quotes we can enjoy fall any time of year.

For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together.
For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad.

Edwin Way Teale

Delicious autumn!  My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.

George Eliot

Listen!  the wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!

Humbert Wolfe

Then summer fades and passes and October comes.  We'll smell smoke then,
and feel an unexpected sharpness, a thrill of nervousness, swift elation, a
sense of sadness and departure.

There is no season such delight can bring,
As summer, autumn, winter and the spring.

William Browne, Variety, 1630

Fall Quotes

My heart is a garden tired with autumn,
Heaped with bending asters and dahlias heavy and dark,
In the hazy sunshine, the garden remembers April,
The drench of rains and a snow-drop quick and clear as a spark; 

Daffodils blowing in the cold wind of morning,
And golden tulips, goblets holding the rain --
The garden will be hushed with snow, forgotten soon, forgotten --
After the stillness, will spring come again?

Sara Teasdale, The Garden

For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together. 
For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad.

Edwin Way Teale

In the garden, Autumn is, indeed the crowning glory of the year, bringing us the fruition of months of thought and care and toil.  And at no season, safe perhaps in Daffodil time, do we get such superb  colour effects as from August to November.

Rose G. Kingsley

Listen!  the wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves, 
We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!

There is no season such delight can bring,
As summer, autumn, winter and the spring.

William Browne

Being Comfortable Alone

Being comfortable alone. I'm not saying you should be alone but there will undoubtedly be times in your life when you have to be alone. Our friends and family have lives and responsibilities as well so please don't hold it against them if they can't spend time with you sometimes. If they never can then you may want to reevaluate that situation but that is a different subject. I used to think I was co dependent and how would I ever survive alone. Well that was years ago and I have since lived alone and loved it. The key is to enjoy your freedom. Think about it you can do whatever you want and not be judged for it.

Think of alone time as a mini vacation. Use the time wisely put on music and clean or cook. Do something you enjoy. Watch tv, watch that chick flick or guy movie you have been wanting to see that isn't your partners thing (if you even have a partner) find like minded friends online. There is someone to talk to online 24 hours a day 7 days a week in all time zones. The key is to distract yourself. I like to use my alone time to better myself sometimes and sometimes just catch up on sleep. Go for a drive. Visit that new store you haven't had time to. Play with your pet if you have one. Create something cool. Make a difference in someones life. Take a bubble bath. Exercise.

Write a book. Babysit a friends children so he or she can have a night or day off. There is plenty of fun stuff that doesn't cost money to do. There is a lot of legitimate places online to earn money in your spare time if you keep your eyes open and be aware of potential scams. It it sounds to good to be true it most likely is is a good rule of thumb there. And just remember you won't be alone forever. Learning to be comfortable alone will help you grow and mature in many ways.

Think of the people who never get alone time and when they do it is a Calgon moment. I know it was for me when my kids were little. I never had any alone time. The main thing to keep in mind is that it is most likely a temporary situation and keep your spirits up. Sadness is no way to live. Find something to do you enjoy and let it occupy your mind. 

Healing Quotes

Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.
