I keep hearing about this new 'toy' called the Flip Mino HD as per this news article entitled 'your family memories get mobile'. It is described as a 'seamless, intuitive' home video camera the size of a cell-phone. I love having my cell phone camera handy and all charged up wherever I go, and this seems like it could be the next level for me.
In another great story today, 'No place like home', 'An aging population is creating a wealth of business opportunities for home health-care franchise operators'. Nurse Next Door is a home healthcare franchise that tends to senior's health care needs at home helping seniors avoid nursing facilities. 'Even in a recession, the aging population is creating business opportunities in the home-based health-care sector, especially since plenty of seniors... have no interest in spending their twilight years in a nursing home and are determined to remain as independent as possible for as long as they can.
The sector is considered a major growth area ,with 13 per cent of Canadians today over 65. In the next 20 years that figure is expected to nearly double to 25 per cent.'
I think I'm going to try this Microwave Carrot Cake from Lily's Wai Sek Hong blog...only 8 minutes in the microwave! Who knew you could microwave a cake?
On a lighter note, I'm in McDonald's this morning just before lunch, and I'm served by this tall, slim, black woman with a great smile. I give my order, then I hear myself saying 'you're so pretty, you should be a model, have you ever tried anything like that?' She laughs and asks me if I have an agency. Then she thanks me. I swear I got an extra large order of fries in my takeout order. But she really was beautiful and with a pleasant personality.

yo know, that is SO nice of you to say that to that young woman. We don;t do thigns like that enough. There are so manytimes I'd love to compliment someone similarly, but being a guy, one simply can't or it mgiht freak them out as bing hit on when one is only trying to make tehir day and bless them.
That gadget is just the ticket, methinks. I don't even hae my own camera, let alone video thing.
Hey Christine
You need to try the salads at McD's they are surprisingly really good.
Jammmie, something about that girl made me feel comfortable to compliment her, she seemed a receptive sort.
SoccerMom, I keep telling myself to try a salad...those fries weren't for me anyway!
