I’m still doing a little testing here, but things seem to be running at SPEED RACER speed now. Let me know if you encounter any slow poke behavior.

Do any of you watch Moment of Truth? Man that show is just crazy!

23 days since I quit smoking!

My mom sent me this Warren Buffet fact sheet in an email this morning, and I thought I would share it. The way he looks at business is the same exact way my husband looks at business. I would love to be able to donate $30 billion dollars to our favorite charity one day.

There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the third richest man who has donated $30 billion to charity. Here are some very interesting aspects of his life…

  1. He bought his first share of stock at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!
  2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.
  3. He still lives in the same, small 3-bedroom house in midtown Omaha that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.
  4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver security people around him.
  5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world’s largest private jet company.
  6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis.
  7. He has given his CEO’s only two rules. Rule number 1: Do not lose any of your shareholder’s money.
    Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.
  8. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His pastime after he gets home is to make himself some popcorn and watch television.
  9. Bill Gates, the world’s richest man, met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So, he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.
  10. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.

You all know how much I love my coffee right? I’m pretty sure I have written about it before. It doesn’t seem to have the same bang in the morning like it use to with a cigarette, but…I will survive.

I recently had the chance to try out the Senseo Gourmet Coffee Pot System. I’ve never used one of these pod system machines, but I know they are becoming quit popular in the office, and in your cubical.

It brews really fast, and it’s really handy for the individual coffee drinker, if you’re not the type that sucks down a whole pot like me. The coffee pods taste really good, but I just didn’t think that the coffee got hot enough. I like my coffee to be tongue burning hot, so that is probably just a mild annoyance that only I would mind.

Senseo Coffee Machine

I know there is a lot going on in that picture (I have the smallest kitchen in the world, with the largest small appliance collection) but try to focus in on the Senseo machine. The machine came with a bag of Senseo Coffee Pods, and a nice canister to store them in. I also got 5 - $20 off coupons to hand out to my friends and coworkers.

Do you like coffee? Do you want to review the Senseo Gourmet Coffee Pot System? All you have to do is sign up here and you may be chosen to receive a free Senseo Gourmet Coffee Pot System. Pretty cool, huh??!!

I’m going to take my Senseo Gourmet Coffee Pot System to work and put it in my office. I’m sure I will have quite a few visitors come to try it out, and if they like it, I can give them a $20 off coupon. So sign up today and share the Senseo Gourmet Coffee Pot System with your friends.
