I know that may not mean much but it's like starting your own business. It also relies on an&nbsp;incident&nbsp;command system as used in the fire service (and business and the military). What????<br /> <br /> I'll explain&nbsp;briefly...both of my sons and myself are leaders in this clan (since we&nbsp;started&nbsp;it) and now that part of the game requires organization, assignment of responsibilities, etc. It sounds complicated but is a lot of fun! As one of my sons said..It's like having a family business!!.... He also stated it's a cool way to bond with his dad and brother...we chat, email,strategize, etc all the time.<br /> <br /> Now no one has to get this&nbsp;involved but this aspect of the game turns out to be a lot of fun!!! And if you want to sart the game, go to&nbsp;<a href="http://www.realmofempires.com/">Realm of Empires</a>, go to realm 6 and join the clan Peace Keepers. Or if you want, Realm 3's clan I'm in is United Lords...<br /> <br /> Try it.......you'll like it!!!!!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-60439606162635627582010-03-18T20:34:00.000-05:002010-03-18T20:34:59.511-05:00Ok...apparently this is my annual (lol) blog posting. This time it's about another game on Facebook, <a href="http://www.realmofempires.com/">Realm of Empires</a>. I forget the type of game it is (something like MMORTG or something). Anyway, I started because my son got me interested in it...apparently I'm easily persuaded to play games.<br /> <br /> Anyway I had originally told him I didn't really have the time or energy to devote to another game. However, I&nbsp;succumbed&nbsp;and tried it...and glad I did!!!<br /> <br /> I'm in Realm 3 as Firemed, clan of United Lords in case there are any&nbsp;potential&nbsp;joiners out there!! And the 1st thing I noticed was that the game was designed to play on average 15 minutes or less a day....and turned out to be true!<br /> <br /> The other interesting thing about the game was the&nbsp;friendliness. Twice I went to&nbsp;acquire&nbsp;an abandoned village, got there 1st but later got wiped out due to incoming troops that were coincidentally sent right behind mine. In both cases, after&nbsp;proving what happened, they either gave me the village or payed me tons for my troubles!! lol...<br /> <br /> It sounds like there is an occasional dispute that the clans with alliances go after, but this is few and far between.<br /> <br /> Anyway, I hope this rambling made sense....and welcome to all the blog viewers that think this was a new blog....apparently I'm still just a lazy blogger.<br /> <br /> Let me know if anyone wants &nbsp;more info.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-33876436443487666142009-03-18T12:13:00.005-05:002009-03-18T12:25:52.949-05:00...so one of the guys I work with asked me to join the Mafia game on Facebook, saying that I "didn't have to play, I just get more points...bit it is addicting". So I joined and wow!!!! It's a good thing I'm off work!! I check my stats hourly, see who is attacking me, robbing me...seek revenge. A very relaxing game...he,he,he.<br /><br />Anyway I just ordered a <a href="http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/laptop-studio-xps-13?c=us&amp;l=en&amp;s=dhs&amp;cs=19&amp;%7Eoid=us%7Een%7E29%7Elaptop-studio-xps-13_anav_1%7E%7E">Dell Studio XP 13</a>...It's the first new laptop I've bought in 9 years so I did go a bit overboard. Of course my wife asked..."So you need a laptop...why?" She just doesn't understand...I will use it to demo my products, and...ummmm...check email.....and...ummm................ok,ok...check my Mafia stats on the road!!!!!<br /><br />Also we are helping with a breast cancer fundraiser locally. This will take place at Bozley's (who has great opne jam sessions on Sundays) on I65 and US10 the end of the month....Details to follow soon. I know it's a longshot because thre are so many great causes out there...but if anyone wants info on how to donate, let me know..Thanks in advance.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-71585654057864348182009-03-13T11:09:00.004-05:002009-03-13T11:15:26.322-05:00So it looks like my shoulder therapy is going well....due to the new product I'm on?

I love the MLM concept..I'm just not that good at it yet. I do know this makes you more money quicker then my last (Amway/Quixtar) MLM. And there's less to know....basically just 1 product. All I can say is it is a nutritional drink...any more info and you can comment...Don't worry..I won't try to "sell" you something..just let you know my take on this business.<br /><br />I can say this has been giving me so much more energy, I need to NOT take it close to bed time...I'm wide awake!!!

It sounds like you can make a lot more money, quicker, in Monavie. If anyone is serious about having Monavie as a potential business, Google it to find more but leave me a comment if you want to start as I have an excellent team to get you on). I'm not quite ready to get involved on the business side, but if I was to get into an MLM again, this would be it! At least Quixtar/Amway's leaga team can't come after me again....I don't think...hmm.<br /><br />Ok..well I have a lot more info on my exciting life but...as a cliff hanger...I'll give you more soon!!!! Upcoming...<br /><br /><br /><br />- a <a href="http://orthopedics.about.com/cs/generalshoulder/a/slap.htm"> SLAP tear</a> may hinder my stellar softball career<br />- my love for the Wii continues with new review and maybe some links!!!<br />- I'll talk about my new remote car starter with feedback to 3000ft!<br />- Sex!!!!

Brad<br /><br />[UPDATE] If anyone cares, I though this was kind of funny...I had several paragraphs written on this blog but realized I almost said verbatim the sam things in the May 13th, 2008 Post...I guess it HAS been a while since I posted!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-30350375246383611492008-06-20T16:35:00.002-05:002008-06-20T16:40:49.757-05:00...So I'm at 188lbs according to the Wii Fit as of today. I really feel pretty good....stole a couple bases in the last 2 softball games, haven't been sore after any of the games...well except when I slid into home last night.....didn't feel bad until I could hardly move at 3am!!! That didn't last long though. I'm loving the Fit.especially the Yoga exercises. I've never one Yoga before but find that I like it a lot...More soon including the final weigh-in in July.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-36486956463525908882008-05-24T15:17:00.001-05:002008-05-24T15:17:14.618-05:00<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>This is test of Jott.

The "Biggest Loser" contest takes groups of 10, weighs them on a truck scale, and sees what group loses the most weight in 3 months. Our group has lost 87lbs in 2 weeks...starting at a whopping 2450 lbs. I lost 4 lbs before the competition and 3 since...now at 196 lbs personally.<br /><br />I'm working on a Bowflex Treadclimber for 30 minutes a day and doing (and shutup ahead of time) Wii boxing for 20 to 40 minutes a day. I'll try to keep up on all of this as much as I can.<br /><br />I've also ordered the Wii fit...I'll let you know....I know...you just can't wait for all my posts...you even have me on an rss feed don't you......<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-20334565215756248562008-05-13T08:32:00.003-05:002008-05-13T09:01:36.073-05:00It's amazing on how much there is to tell when you get <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">lazy</span> busy. Everything at the firehouse is good now that we have a new mayor and our old chief back. <br /><br />I've gone along with the Team and got out of Quixtar. (As an aside, I had posted occasionally on Quixtar in the past and got a legal notice saying I couldn't do it or lose my business....so I had to take all current and past references out of my blog. Now I never had anything bad to say about them at the time. They just had strict rules about posting, I guess).<br /><br />I am going to eventually get into another business the Team is into...MonaVie. I can't get in for 6 months due to a non-compete clause ( as another aside, I called after I quit an asked if I could get into another MLM that was not competing with the same products Quixtar had. They said I could not. So that's like saying if my wife, an RN, had a non-compete clause in a hospital, she could not only not work in a nearby hospital, but she couldn't work in the medical field at all for 6 months!!!)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-13955643789727605632008-01-05T06:33:00.000-06:002008-01-05T06:48:44.599-06:00So our city election is over and a new mayor in. Phew!!! It's been a long 4 years putting our progressive fire department back to about 1992. So it's time to restart. Our department went through the years with 4 different chiefs including the one from out of the area that just quit after 3 months. The old mayor made him take down the tribute to 9-11 on our sign outside our station.<br /><br />We do have a good bye to our past mayor, Dan Klein...a hidden message in our next sign:<br /><br /> <span style="font-weight:bold;">B</span> uckle <span style="font-weight:bold;">Y</span> ourselves <span style="font-weight:bold;">E</span> very <span style="font-weight:bold;">D</span> ay <span style="font-weight:bold;">A</span> nd <span style="font-weight:bold;">N</span> ight<br /><br />...you think we'll get into trouble with this one? Were just saying farewell to a .....ummmm.....friend.......<Evil Laughter included><br /><br />And I guess my pathetic attempt to gain readers by using sex,etc failed miserably showing that the readers out there, are way above this. Good job!! It was just a test and you guys passed with flying colors!!!!!<br /><br />...no really...it was a test....<br /><br />Anyway..hope everyone had a great holiday season...hope to hear from you soon...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624160.post-14644405392464806962007-12-03T20:41:00.001-06:002007-12-03T20:44:52.384-06:00Sooooo...I've tried dirty, low down tricks before to get readers...let's see if this improves it at all.....<Evil laughter placed here>... <br><br><a href="http://www.onlinebootycall.com/r.php?ref=1566946&source=blogger"><img src="http://www-mii.onlinebootycall.com/images/banner02_L.gif" BORDER=0></A><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-6906761611670815"; google_ad_width = 336; google_ad_height = 280; google_ad_format = "336x280_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1
