Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, just became an instant billionaire!  Facebook went IPO today with an initial stock price of $38.  Like many others, I also got in on some of the Facebook action.  I bought a few shares at $39.99 and it's already gone up.  I won't become rich or anything with this stock, but I'm hoping it'll pay off a few bills.  

Here's an interesting widget for anyone curious to know how much Mark Zuckerberg is currently worth.  The info below is accurate and is about 20 mins delayed.  

Origins of the Pippin Video Game Console

In the early 90's, Apple started development on its tragically doomed debut into the video game console market. Dual released in Japan and the U.S. in 1995 the console was marketed as the Pippin in Japan, and as the @world in the United States. While the system was technologically superior to its main competitor on the market, the 3DO, and the Sony PlayStation that would later dominate the market, the strategies used in marketing the device to consumers caused it to crash and burn with only about 5,000 units sold in the U.S. market. It faired slightly better in Japan, but never really got a foothold on the competition.

This is an awesome commercial for Ecotricity.

Hazel Jones, a woman with two vaginas goes on national TV to talk about her rare condition. Double uterus (Uterus Didelphys) is rare and sometimes woman go undiagnosed. Here are some videos of Hazel on TV and the second one below is a video of her having a vaginal exam.

My wife and I love watching reality TV. We watch shows like American Gun, American Pickers, American Restoration and we used to watch Operation Repo until we found out it was staged/fake. Another show we watch is the History Channel's Pawn Stars. This show is great... there are some really cool things that people bring in to pawn and there's always some sort of history lesson with each item. Well, we just found out that a lot of the items that people bring into Pawn Stars are staged!

I saw this on the Internet and though I'd share:

What is more morally relative than being told, Thou Shall Not Kill, and supporting wars of every kind for any reason?

What is more morally relative than being told to Love Thy Neighbor and yet denying your neighbor's equal rights?

What is more morally relative than being told, Thou Shall Not Steal, and yet vocally supporting unrestricted, unfettered and unregulated, corporate capitalism?

This is part 1 of a 3 blog post series where I will write about a combination of working from home howto, SEO and affiliate marketing. I'm married with two kids and we're a single income family . I work and my wife is a stay at home mom.

I'm a video game collector.  I've been collecting video game consoles since I was a little kid.  I tend to buy limited edition video game stuff and then put it behind glass in hopes that one day my son will be on Pawn Stars trying to sell it for hopefully more than I paid! :)  Here are some cool Wii accessories and Wii games I currently have on order:

 

There was once a man born in a distant land who came from humble beginnings and faced trails along the way.  He befriended beggars and gained power only to be crucified under the hand of a brutal tyrant.  His followers gathered his body only to witness him conquer death and become more powerful than he ever was before.   This man’s name was Conan the Barbarian.
