We are lucky in Las Vegas to have access to buffets. These places where you can go and get all the food that you can eat in one sitting is simply a great thing. We got comped to the Sunset Buffet which used to be one of my favorite spots to visit for all you can eat food. Let me tell you, times they are a changing.
Since the Red Rock Casino was built the Sunset Station, being one of the sister casinos, has done a little overhauling. They have changed their buffet to match the other casinos in the chain. Now we have been to the Red Rock Stations Buffet a couple times and they have some great food there. But the Sunset seems to have lost a bit of their flare. They used to be one of the great buffets in the city but now it seems that they have dumbed it down a little.
They still have good food .. that has not changed, but the selection of food has shrunk considerably. Maybe they are trying to save some money or perhaps they are moving in another direction with the selection but they are no longer on my top 10 casinos to buffet at any longer. This is a sad day for me as I used to love going there. I will say that they still have the hottest girls working there so that is a plus but we will probably not be eating there as often as we used to.

It’s going to be another hot ass summer I can tell already. Today was a little less hot than I expected but I can tell already that this summer is going to be the hottest ever.
They say that in like 2012 that the strongest heat wave ever is going to hit the earth and I am sure that we will feel the brunt of it seeing as we are in the desert. We usually see temperatures in the low 100’s during the summer and I bet that this is not going to change this year.
I predict that this year will be one of the hottest years we have seen in a while. With temperatures rising ever so quickly and the rain on it’s way I’m sure that the heater is just getting warmed up for Vegas.

This is just a quick update on the whole home brewing situation. We found the kit that we are going to use and we hope that it gets here pretty fast because we are anxious to get started.
This is the first step for us to become a little more self sufficient. And I like the thought of making a beer that is to my taste and not having to drown my palette with that store bought crap.
The kit we are getting can be found on MakeBeer.net we will have to get a few other supplies and a few of them we have around the house but for the most part we are well on our way to home brewing.

In an effort to be a little more green we are going to attempt to make our own beer. Apparently this is not something new to dwellers of caves and us among the out landers. I guess I have been living under a rock for some time now and I want to get out from under it as soon as possible.
Brew Your Own more commonly known as Homebrewng, has been around for centuries. Now you can buy a kit that will show you how to make beer in just a few short steps. This process of making beer in your own home is much more cost effective than buying a 6 or 12 pack on the way home from work. And you can make an unlimited supply of brew, cool it and drink it anytime you want.
So in an effort to be more green and to become a self sustained house hold we are going to attempt the process of brewing our own beer. This will really give new meaning to the term BYOB!!

I have been using some of the tricks that I learned recently to get a better Alexa Traffic Score and show people that your site does get looked at. It’s not enough to show your own stats apparently but you have to have the recommendation of sites like Alexa who use some pretty tricky and sneaky practices to supply other people with your stats.
We use a few different programs to monitor our sites progress in the search and in the ranks of Alexa. Web CEO is one that started out free and we just had to have it for full time use. You can check all kinds of things with Web CEO.
One of these days Alexa will get their stuff together and let everyone know how they are getting their results that are so important to blogging in the paid blogging arena.
There are other sites like Technoroti who boast real time results and real time indexing of blogs that are out in the web. The blogosphere is growing and can not be stopped. You will be seeing more and more blogs supplying information and great links to other sites if you are not hip to this already.

I didn’t realize this before but there are tricks and little sneaky things that you can do to get a better score with the search engines. Now I’m not talking about anything black hat like Traffic Power used to do but I am talking about legitimate ways to get better rankings on the search engines and some of the other tracking sites.
These are proven results and everyone is using them. Check out the Alexa site and the Google help logs on their site for more information on how you can improve your site and your rank with proven results.

We are thinking about making a podcast site for our ramblings. We want to create a site that we can do podcasting on like one of our friends does. It sounds like a good idea and a lot of work at this point. We have so many projects that we are working on and that is getting a little overwhelming. But maybe something fun will take away some of the stress of working like a slave all day.
We have been working on sites to create blogs for working online. We want to attract advertisers with our blogs so that we can do things like PayPerPost and get paid to write about the things we love. Everyone else is doing it so why can’t we? PayPerPost seems to be working for us with our other blogs and soon enough we may enter this one into the PPP competition.
We love to write if you can’t tell and we sure would like it if all of our blogs where on some kind of payed advertising for reviews. We love to review websites and write about them in our own words. Chelle has been using my blogs for a while now and she is doing pretty good with making a little extra money from blogging. Enough to support me buying more URLs anyway. And we can easily pay for our hosting every month. We would really like to get into it hardcore though. I have seen some of the people on PPP making hundreds a day and that is where we want to be.
I wanted this blog to be a little higher in the rankings before I submit it for approval for paid posting but I think I am getting a little anxious to get started now. But I wil stick to my guns and wait it out to see if Google indexes again and hooks me up with some Google love and I get some Alexa love before then. Maybe in a few months.
For now I will concentrate on the podcasting and see where that takes us.

The oldest boy is really taking to the baby. He is 5 years older than the little baby boy and that is his “Little Brother”! He is so gentle with him and wants to help out with every thing that we do for the baby. He wants to do everything except change the diapers.
He has this toy that he calls his Knuckle Punch. We are not really sure why he calls it that other than its one of those Hulk Fists and maybe he made the distinction between that and a knuckle sandwich. I don’t know .. he is one weird kid.
Funny thing about marketing things like the Hulk Fists. They have the movie coming out in theaters and in Wal Mart you can get the Hulk Memorabilia before the movie even gets out. So you buy up all this stuff and then your kid says .. well lets go see the movie now. WOW .. they know how to make your kids buy things that they want you to buy. Waste your hard earned money on silly things to keep your kids happy even if they are not learning anything from the actual toy they are learning that if they want something bad enough all they have to do is whine for a while and it can be theirs.
Good job on the marketing … really … now we have 4 Knuckle Punches and they are all sitting in the closet collecting dust and we had to sit through the movie to … with the stale popcorn and the idiots who can take the Hulk if he was here right now.

Yes, it’s early in the morning .. about 2:50 am, the baby is up so I am up. So far he has been a doll. You can see some pictures of him on ErnsWrold on the photos side of the site. You have to register to see them but they are there and there are some on the site if you look around.
So it has been a bit since we got home and I have been able to post anything on here. I wanted to talk about all kinds of things today but I didn’t expect to get up this early. So now my brain is only half on and I can smell the coffee brewing. Soon I will be awake and able to write some things in here that make sense.
There is a new blog coming out on the Link The Planet slew of sites. It is a blog for bloggers and blog readers. A real blogger blog. If that makes any sense. I wanted to start one of the sites as a bloggers workshop sort of thing. Where bloggers could go and learn the arts of blogging. How to get their blog set up to make them the most amount kickbacks that they could from their writing skills. The site is not quite set up yet but when it is done the blog will be one of the greatest things that I have ever created.
Maybe I will create this new blog then out do myself with something even more spectacular. Like that one suit I was thinking about making.
Have you ever seen the movie Waterboy? That right there tells me that with a little determination and some help from your friends you can do anything.

Tomorrow we are going to go and stay at the grandparents to bes house so that we are close to the hospital for the delivery. We are scheduled for like 5 am and eh I don’t want to get up that early. Some things are just worth doing though.
Staying at their house is going to be new for me .. I have never fallen asleep in the same vicinity as Chelles dad before and she is an only child so I’m sure there are some Daddies little girl issues there somewhere. Not really we are all one big happy family. I can’t wait to get on with our lives and have this baby. I am so excited to bring him home and be with him everyday.
I was hoping that we could have a little time alone before he was born just so that we could just be alone and talk and hug before the baby gets here but that can not happen. We have been surrounded by family and friends for weeks now and there is no end in sight. I bet they even show up in the hospital to bug us every day. Soon very soon we will be adding a new little addition to the fam bam.
