The Wayward Wind

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

The Wayward Wind is a category on this blog. It is also a darn good classic song. It’s been remade a few times… I think Waylon Jennings even did a version with someone one time. Performed in this video clip by Gogi Grant, it’s as good today as when it was first performed. I hope you enjoy this song as much as I do!

Doing it right, the Fenster way!

Sunday, March 9th, 2008

As a parent, one of the most heartbreaking things you go through may be watching a child that you know to be highly intelligent failing in school. This occurrence is extremely high among children who are intensely creative… remember all those old sayings about people with an “artistic temperament”? Fortunately, there IS a place where children who fail in the public school system can go to achieve their full potential. In fact, that is what the Fenster School is all about. The Fenster School is a boarding school for teens that specializes in the underachiever. At this school, children learn to achieve their potential through the development of a sense of responsibility and accountability. Self esteem improves, and they are assisted with attaining acceptance at various forms of higher learning, once they have earned their high school diploma. If your child is floundering in the public school system, why not give them a better chance? Contact Fenster today!

Coffee and Rockapella… Life is Good.

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

As far as I am concerned, if the word is “acapella”, the group is ROCKAPELLA. Probably best known for the great job they did on the theme song for the kid’s game show “Where in the World is Carman Sandiego”, they actually have a large array of great songs available. The video clip below, however, is a coffee commercial. I chose it because it combines my two favorite things…. great music and great coffee. That, and even I never realized that they did this commercial!

It’s All About Getting Seen!

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

This post actually applies to anyone with something they are trying to market, but in keeping with my site theme, I am directing it to the musicians among us. Musicians have a really hard time these days getting their music out in front of people. Well, have you ever thought about using DRTV? That’s Direct Response Television. You might have seen it in the form of an infomercial, perhaps. But think about it… a basic infomercial of your performances, giving the television audience the opportunity to buy your CD then and there. It’s a great marketing idea, and Hawthorne Direct can make it happen for you. They can even make sure your infomercial gets air time! It would be well worth your consideration! Just click the link and start finding out what they can do for you!

Van Guarded?

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

I don’t talk much about this on here, but my family lives in one of the Arkansas counties that President Bush just declared a disaster area about a month ago. His reasoning? Well, an EF5 tornado ripped through our county on February 5th, taking forty plus businesses and about eighty homes with it. And, although this tornado did kill people elsewhere, we were fortunate that no one from our county was killed, though there were a few injuries. One of the near death experiuences was my son in law, who was driving home in my minivan. Two miles from our house, the tornado picked up the van he was in, blew out all the windows but the windshield, and slammed the van down on a fence in a nearby field. Everything inside the van was lost, and the van will never run again. Amazingly enough, my son in law opened the door and walked away. He had a few minor cuts on his face, and because of that, he scared the heck out of the people in cars stopped on the road, but he is okay.

After all the shock, my first reaction was to call my insurance company. I have been paying for rather expensive Van Insurance for years, and I figured it was just about time it paid me back, considering. But guess what? After the sweet lady on the phone took my claim and assured me that they would get right on it, I had to wait two weeks for the decision letter. They turned me down, of course. Why? Well, the tornado is not classified as an accident. If my son in law had crashed the van, it would have been paid for. But because it was a tornado, we aren’;t covered. Fidures, doesn’t it?

Nautical Shopping Made Easy!

Friday, March 7th, 2008

Finding a great place to get boating items and supplies can be hard. I did manage to find a great place, though. This place, American Marine Supply, should NOT stay a secret! They do it all, from engine parts to boat covers at great prices to nautical jewelry! Their selection of maritime clocks is impressive. I have NEVER seen such beauty and craftsmanship in functionally accurate pieces before! Their online site handles even special orders, making things even easier for you. So, even if you don’t know anything about engine parts, there is still plenty to be seen. Hey, they have great deck furniture as well! If you need it or want it on a boat, it’s probably there. Just click the link!
