It must suck to have to wear the same old lab coat day in and day out. The only good thing I can imagine is that you never have to worry about what to wear that day, only needing to make sure that your limited supply of lab coats are clean and wrinkle free and what shoes to wear.

So many of today’s medical professionals can choose from a variety of scrub uniforms that we are seeing more and more of out and about in our daily lives. The ones that are geared for the pediatric sector are really cute. I’m sure it makes a difference for the kids that they deal with each day and hopefully cheer up the place as well. Lord knows a busy pediatrics office can use all the cheering up that they can get. I can’t imagine working in that environment with all the crying and screaming kids day after day after day……..

I don’t live any where close to any place that offers any type of gambling. I would have to drive a pretty good distance to get to any place like that, which is a bummer. Years back my parents took us all to Las Vegas, what a trip that was. I was too young to really appreciate all that Vegas has to offer adults, although we did enjoy seeing several shows that will always stay in my mind for as long as I live I can guarantee you that.

Not that I’m that much into risking my hard earned money, heck I don’t even buy Lottery tickets, unless I buy them and use them as a gift to some one who I have no idea what else to buy them. In my opinion they are more fun than a gift card for some place that a person might not even use, that would really bite. Talk about a waste!

I have a few friends, or I should say co workers that go online a play some casino games slot machines at times. In the break room some times that is the major topic of conversation and I sit there like a bump on a log with nothing to contribute to the conversation. So I decided to look around and learn just a bit in order to be able to know what the heck they are talking about and to be able to join in the conversation at some point.

I found a cool site that is a rating guide to the best online gaming sites at ghidpc.com. Took a few minutes and looked around, it’s a pretty user friendly site and very flashy I can tell you that, but I guess it goes with the atmosphere of the games. If you are into online gaming I’d tell you to check them out and see if there is anything that floats your boat there.

My older brothers and most of their friends were (and still are) muscle car freaks. There was always at least one car in the back drive way that was being worked on and/or restored and I learned a lot about cars by being surrounded by them growing up. If the car wasn’t from the 60′s or 70′s or earlier they just didn’t hold our interest even though there has been a few cool cars manufactured since then, not many but a few.

We have an annual fair and parade in our town each May and there is always a good amount of muscle cars, antique vehicles, fire engines, hot rods, motorcycles and the like cruising the town in anticipation of participating in the parade. This is a huge parade and people come from all over to watch and to participate in it each year. I enjoy watching the high school bands, the dancers, beauty pageant queens, the civic groups, celebrities and the local politicians that are in the parade, along with various other entries that entertain the large crowds.  But my favorite is when the muscle cars start coming down the street and the Harley Davidsons of course. They just get me going, big time!

It’s cool to see that some of the older model cars are starting to go back to some of the classic looks. The new Mustang the new Corvette and the new Camaro are starting to make more appearances around town now and then. Heads are turning to see how they look from behind and to how they sound. A guy that used to hang around my brothers just bought a new 2010 camaro and is looking for chevy camaro accessories to start souping her up for his fall and winter project.  By next May he may be ready to cruise along the parade route along with the newer good looking cars.

In no time it will be football season. Of all of the sports that we have available to us these days, football still has my vote. I have no patience for watching a baseball game or a golf game, especially on TV for goodness sake. Nothing could be a boring as that in my book. I’ve been to a couple of live professional baseball games, if it wasn’t for the beer and the music I wouldn’t have lasted the whole game!

Anyway, this year I have subscribed to the sunday ticket with my current satellite provider. I look forward to having several parties celebrating the football season this year. I’ll start stocking up on beer that I find on sale in the next couple of months and hit the ABC store regurarly for their sales that never seem to come often enought and I should be good to go by the time the first kick-off takes place.

If there are any games that I don’t get I’m sure that I can go over to my BFF’s place and watch her Time Warner sports channels and another good friend subscribes to the well known Cox sports package that is under contract with. So I pretty much have it covered and am just counting down the months, which will be turning into weeks in no time until the fun starts taking place, live and on TV.

Most of us are very aware of the fact that gold is a great investment. I know several people that are seriously learning all that they can about gold coins and gold bullion and I’m hearing people at work talking about gold more and more these days. Of course we have all been seeing all the advertisements for “Cash For Gold” these couple of past years. Most of the major malls have a kiosk set up that will buy your old, unused and unwanted gold pieces, they are doing a booming business. People are looking for ways to bring more cash into their very empty wallets since the economy seems to be at a stand still, at the bottom of the barrel.

I’m learning, as well about gold price today issues from hearing bits and pieces from these good folks. Of course we have Internet access at work so we look up all types of interesting websites through out the day. Today we were learning about krugerrand gold at a website regalgoldcoins.com. It seems that this type of gold is from South Africa and is highly sought after due to it’s purity. I’d love to see one, nothing like getting an up close look and a good feel of things.
