The holidays are upon us and Christmas is actually next week! Have you gotten your picture with Santa yet? Do you got a wish for Christmas that you want to make. If so, keep it in mind for when I tell you about a cool sweepstakes later on. Now, back to Santa. If you do not yet have our picture with Santa then you need to know about the Sit on Santas Lap Experience that includes a photo upload. And then you need to get that pic with Santa and put it in one of the super cool CEIVA Digital Photo Frame. Have you seen one of these digital photo frames? They are a super kind of cool. And you need to have a phone line or wi-fi to get the unique part working properly. If you like digital photo frames you will love this one!
And like I said before - do not forget to check out the cool sweepstakes that is going on when you do your Sit on Santas Lap Experience. You do have to be at least 18 years of age and be a resident of the United States. Here are some of the details - there is 1 random entry selected for each day of the contest and there is a cash prize of $500 per winner.

Holodomor Truth is dedicated to exposing the facts about the Golodomor debate in the Soviet Union. The Soviet famine of 1932-1933 hit most major grain-producing agricultural regions of the Soviet Union, including South Urals, West Siberia, Kazakhstan, the Ukraine, and Northern Caucasus. Holodomor Truth states that The Communist governments of the Soviet Republics seized grains and exported the agricultural output to the west to sustain rapid economic industrialization, a policy of Joseph Stalin’s, thereby causing the mass hunger, or Golodomor, of millions of peopel throughout the Soviet Union. An estimated 6 to 8 million people, almost entirely of the peasant class, died of the famine between the years 1932 and 1933. Some Ukrainian politicians have argued that the famine that killed so many may have been an attack on Ukraine and should therby fall under the legal definition of genocide. European scholars and politicians argued that the famine was not an attack on the Ukrainian nation, but an ineffective economic policy. On October 23, 2008, the European Parliament called the famine a crime “cynically and cruelly planned by Stalin’s regime in order to force through the Soviet Union’s policy of collectivization of agriculture”. Check out Holodomor Truth for more information.

Ms. Pacman.
Old school video games are oh so much cooler than this modern crap, and I’m not just saying that because I’m old and out of the loop. Tetris. Pac-man. Q*Bert. Rock.
So, when I need a real break, as opposed to the kind I usually take, filled with thinking and a guilty conscience due to my temporary lack of motivation, there is nothing quite like plug-and-play Ms. Pacman. It’s mind-numbing and kind of soothing, and if you get really good at it, it can help you postpone writing for quite some time!
