I’ve a friend who is known for using this term a lot “shoulda coulda”. She actually laughs about it, but it is something that we all say at some point in our lives. I am learning that it is not just important, but healthy to make time for you. No, it is not being selfish, rather it is so important that doing it will result in making your relationships around you better, you’ll work more effectively on the job, and it will help to eliminate or reduce unwanted stress in your life.What do we gain from working ourselves to exhausting; racing after the fast buck, and in the process miss enjoying life, and the people that fills our lives with love and joy?

Stress has become a common word that is used often in our conversations. It has become an acceptable part of living – it appears that if you don’t have stress from the job or something or another then your life isn’t full enough, or you’re coasting.Could it be that a life not lived under the dominating hand of stress is possible? Despite our hectic lives, we can stop and smell the roses, enjoy the actual taste and flavors in the food we eat, take note of what we’re blessed with, and embrace the friendships around us. Yes, we can get to a place at least once a week to take time for self – to relax, and allow your body; give it that well deserved break.One Sunday I went with four gal friends on a day trip to Seattle.

Two of them have kids; Sonya had a 6 month old and it was her first time away from him. You could tell by her words and actions that she was having fun, yet missed her baby.Bev has 3, a pro at it:-), and couldn’t say enough of what “getting away” meant to her. Carmen, mother of two, her youngest is 29-Cyn, the daughter of Carmen and myself. We laughed, shopped, ate, howled at each other’s comments, relaxed and had a ball. We were all at different places in our lives, but we all had the same basic need “time for self”, time away from the norm of doing the automatic required and sometimes necessary chores. It was precious, priceless, inexpensive and healthy. Though we arrived back home later than planned, tired, but relaxed and revived. We intend on doing it at least once per year with this group. So, make plans and get away from your “norm”; spend time with yourself or with a group of people you can have fun with, let your hair down, and have some fun. Don’t wait until you’re worn out, and times run out before you find yourself saying, “I shoulda, coulda” It is time to schedule time for YOU!

Angelina Jolie in Hot Scene Taking Lives

Fallen $5.84 The Daredevil soundtrack provided a nice boost for this previously unknown quartet from Little Rock, Arkansas. Evanescence’s songs “My Immortal” and the imposing “Bring Me to Life” are clear standouts in the film, mainly because they work so well with the dramatic, eerie undertones of the storyline. They reappear here on the band’s debut, alongside a selection of similarly brooding tracks that evo…

Talking Heads: Chronology Deluxe $16.99 Chronology pulls together live performances from across Talking Heads’ career. It starts with their earliest days at CBGB and The Kitchen in New York City in the mid-seventies, through their breakthrough years in the late seventies and on to global success in the eighties. They completed their last tour in 1983 although they would continue to make very successful albums throughout the eighties be…

Neil Peart Taking Center Stage: Lifetime of Live Performances $22.73 Neil Peart – Taking Center Stage was filmed in various locations over the course of a year.

This includes rare and exclusive footage of Neil’s personal pre-tour rehearsals and backstage events at a Rush concert (including a visit to the soundcheck, and an unprecedented backstage interview as Neil warms up …

Talking Hands: A Sign Language Video For Children [VHS] $13.89 Kids gobble cookies, blow bubbles, open and close a box of dress-up items, even sit on the potty to illustrate some of the 31 hand gestures taught throughout this excellent sign language video. Much like a mini video “dictionary,” teaching focuses on word recognition alone–not the alphabet nor on full sentence structure–and covers a smart variety of simple verbs and nouns (based on American Sign…

Taking Lives [VHS] $33.33 While it doesn’t rank with such grim classics as The Silence of the Lambs and Seven, D.J. Caruso’s Taking Lives offers similarly heavy atmosphere, beginning well before fizzling into absurdity. Freely adapted from the novel by Michael Pye, and set in Montreal (although it was filmed in Quebec City), the plot trades in several familiar tropes of the serial-killer genre, beginning with the FBI agent…

Do you play a lot of video games? Are you one of those people that buy a video game, beat it, and then trade it in at GameStop for another video game? Have you ever felt like you were getting ripped off? Well, I have a solution for you. Imagine getting your next game for free, or maybe only having to pay a few dollars for it as opposed to the large chunk of change that GameStop would take out of your wallet after you get a few measly dollars for your trade in. I’m talking about going the smart way to getting your video game fix. I’m talking about buying and selling your video games on eBay.

Everyone knows that eBay is one of the best places to buy just about anything at a discounted price, and video games are no different. You can save anywhere from a few dollars to over $20 if you buy your video games on eBay instead of at a local retailer. And the best part is, you can sell the same game back, just the same, and then buy yourself a new one. The savings are phenomenal if you think about it, especially if you play a lot of video games. Sometimes you can even get more for your video games than what you originally paid for them. I have personally experienced this several times.

When placing a bid on a video game, think about the most you’d be willing to pay for it if you were going to buy it retail. Subtract shipping and handling from that price. Then bid. Chances are you’ll win the bid at a lot less than the retail price would be. Or, if you want to be a spend thrift, as I often am, set the price at the most you’d be willing to pay for the game, even if it’s below retail. If you have the cash, I’d recommend bidding on a bunch of the same game at this way low price. Chances are, you won’t win most of the auctions. But if you win one at a steal it would be all worth it. Plus, if you win two copies, you can always resell one of them. This method works great and I use it quite often. When Nintendo Wiis first came out and were sold out in stores, they were selling on eBay for $600 and higher. By using the method I described above, I won my Nintedo Wii at $330 with 18 free games. That’s less than they were selling for in stores at the time. And I’m not talking about 18 games that no one would want. My Wii came with Super Smash Brothers Brawl, Wii Sports, and Legend of Zelda for the Wii. The other 15 games were really good GameCube games.

So next time you’re thinking about trading in one of your video games at GameStop, you might want to take a second and consider cashing it in on eBay instead.

Call Me Irresponsible $7.04 It’s no coincidence that Michael Bublé’s new album starts with just his voice and some fingersnaps on “The Best Is Yet to Come,” a song made famous by Frank Sinatra. The Canadian smoothie looks longingly towards early-’60s Vegas, an impression quickly reinforced when a boisterous horn section makes its grand entrance, about 20 seconds into the track. That Bublé means business is confirmed by the…

Monty Python and the Holy Grail (Special Edition) $5.75 Could this be the funniest movie ever made? By any rational measure of comedy, this medieval romp from the Monty Python troupe certainly belongs on the short list of candidates. According to Leonard Maltin’s Movie & Video Guide, it’s “recommended for fans only,” but we say hogwash to that–you could be a complete newcomer to the Python phenomenon and still find this send-up of the Arthurian legend…

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (Unrated Widescreen Edition) $4.45 Will Farrell followed up his star-making vehicle Elf, which matched his fine-tuned comic obliviousness to a sweet sincerity, with a more arrogant variation on the same character: Ron Burgundy, a macho, narcissistic news anchor from the 1970s. Along with his news posse–roving reporter Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd, Clueless), sports guy Champ Kind (David Koechner), and dim-bulb weatherman Brick Tamland…

the matrix?

this is not a question this is a statement. the matrix is a possibilty and i have not been “watching to many movies” i believe that the idea of the matrix is a reality, what do you think?

You know. I’m fascinated. Please email me and tell me what and why you think this. What evidence do you have?

And Neo, watch out for that Cipher…

Anyway, I suppose anything is possible, and it makes sense for truly scientific minds to consider any possiblity. Although what we could do about it if it were is pretty limited.

The songs unfold in rolling waves, each more complex and richly layered than the last, yet each fully capable of standing alone as a musically satisfying experience. The standout track on this disc is “Return to Innocence,” which combines Native…

Unearthed $15.83 The songs on “Unearthed” pay homage to ancient cultures with their titles (Cuzco, Pompeii, Harrapa, and Ebia), yet they are as contemporary as Deep Forest and Enigma and attract the same kind of fan. The music is at one moment dark and choral and at another light and airy; one moment you’re in Greece and then in Ireland or South America. It’s a film score, clearly cinematic, but there’s no movie…
