Starting out as a bartender serving the Palm Beach elite, Peter Belisi took a cue from the trendsetters that he served, and created a fashion design all his own. While struggling to support his family, he attracted admiration and interest in his new company through his pride in his highly original tie collection, and never wearing the same tie twice.

Peter Belisi came from being a struggling bartender, and now the Belisi brand enhances luxury wardrobes with ties, scarves, handbags, and other accoutrements essential to the completed classy look.

“Belisi unites the luxury and prestige of Palm Beach with Italian beauty and sophistication. Inside Belisi we cultivate a passion for exquisite materials and skilled craftsmanship. Each dramatic detail, represents our unwavering quest to fashion products of truly enduring value.” – Peter Belisi

Wirefly announces the Top 10 cell phones of 2006 based upon their customers’ orders. It’s actually pretty interesting, as my wife and I have the #1 and #4 phone models respectively. I had no idea we were so with it.

The #1 ranked phone was the Cingular modem Motoroloa RAZR. My wife has the pink model, and has had pretty good luck with it. The only problem she has experienced was that the bottom of the screen got horizontal lines going across it. This did not make it unusable however, and Cingular replaced the phone under warranty.

My phone, #4, the Cingular Sony Ericsson z520a has been excellent. I had a Sony Ericsson prior to this one, so I’m familiar with the menu and navigation system. It’s my first flip phone, and has been excellent so far. No trouble, just nice clear phone calls.

So yeah, from my experience it looks like Wirefly’s list is pretty comprehensive and the phones listed are pretty decent. I’m going to laugh when the iPhone tops the list for 2007 after it’s only been out for six months though…hehe.

Good morning Senator Boxer,

I hope that all is well with you. I found the State of the Union quite interesting last night, but am still dismayed that we have another two years under Mr. Bush. I do have faith in you and your counterparts’ potential to make a positive change though, so stay strong and make this Congress one to remember.

I do want to salute you and your Democratic counterparts for showing such respect and decorum throughout the entire thing. By being so respectful, you really reinforced the Republicans’ disrespect to some of Mr. Bush’s statements and their true disdain for saving the environment and supporting other highly important pending legislation.

I wanted to share with you an article that I came across this morning. It has to do with Mr. Cheney’s lingering ties to Halliburton, and really disturbs me. The fact that Halliburton is still getting government contracts makes me absolutely sick. I know that he has been getting away with this for many years now, and that We the People have unfortunately set a precedent for allowing and tolerating this kind of thing, but it needs to stop.

When you go to the web page, it may ask you to log in for some reason. Just click “Cancel” and it will let you read the article however.

As always, thank you for your time, and belated happy new year to you.

Sincerely,

This is the time of year when you might look at your home theater system (or lack thereof….ahem!), and think of how much better it could be. Wouldn’t it make your Super Bowl party that much better with that pretty new home theater system that you saw at Best Buy? Wouldn’t it be that much better if you could get a discount from some good old Best Buy discount codes? Yeah. I thought so, beacause online coupons rule.

Well, here I am watching the State of the Union address again. Why do I torture myself so? It’s like watching a goddamned celebrity awards show. Seriously, I can’t think of any other time that a group of more worthless people all enter one room just for the purpose of fallatiating each other.

Yeah sure, cutting the deficit is a great idea, but the plans that Mr. Bush is going to put into action are going to outlast his presidency and screw up the next one. And yeah, cutting our fuel use and dependence upon foreign oil is a great idea, but how exactly is he going to go about doing this? Right now he’s talking about Iraq, terrorists, and other shit. Blah blah blah.

He also said something about foiling a plot to fly a plane into the tallest building on the west coast. Huh? Did I miss something?

Oh yeah, and I also like the comments about Iran…after hearing his subtle pokes at Iran, does anyone have any question that Iran is our next stop?

Nice job selling the fear too, asshole. “Protecting the American People.” Yeah whatever you say. The American People are not in danger except from your dumb ass foreign policies and your neocon freak friends.

Holy fuck, is that Ollie North? What in the fucking hell is that guy still in politics? Does no one at all remember Iran-Contra? I was just a little boy, but even I remember that shit…and the American People don’t? WTF??

And now GWB is talking about Iran and its nuculur ambitions. Especially how we can not under any circumstances allow them to acquire nuculur weapons. Goddamn it, learn to pronounce nuclear. Even fucking Commander Chekhov can pronounce nuclear….”nooo-cleee-uhr wessels! In Aaaaa-laaa-meee-da.”

Miracle of miracles…he just actually acknowledged Darfur. And the American Public is going “What the fuck is Darfur?” Embarrassing at best.

Haha, GWB just said “safe haven.” That’s fucking hysterical. (The “safe haven” is the bathroom at work where you can drop a deuce without being disturbed, just so you get it too).

Yup, I say again: State of the Union: Sucky. And we’ve got two more years of this guy. Please help.

Someone….

FYGO is a new website, currently in beta, that facilitates the lending of money between folks on the Internet. FYGO allows users to borrow from $100-$2000 and establish their own interest rate, duration and payback terms. Users can also create their own lending groups that they can tap into when the need arises.

FYGO is based out of Phoenix, AZ.

If you need a loan, why not Go to FYGO now?

So by now most people have seen Loose Change and its various iterations, and maybe a few of the other 9-11 documentaries circling the Internet. There’s a new one out though that I just saw, and I highly recommend it. It’s a little dry in parts, but that’s not really the point, is it? It makes a lo of the points that Loose Change does, but takes some of the physics and science behind the arguments and puts it into the layperson’s terms. I am pretty happy with it, and would recommend it to all interested (and not so interested) parties.

Just remember - a Democratic Congress absolutely does not mean the end of government corruption and our journey into a full-on police state. Keep up your guard, good citizens!

In case you are completely in the dark, you will probably realize that Saddam Hussein’s execution did more than just punish a dictator for crimes against humanity. Turns out that the execution served an even more important purpose for many of the elite, and silenced forever the only voice capable of recounting the historical ties between his country and the United States.

Turns out, we used to be good friends. Saddam would go around the Middl East, hefting his weight around and beating up on people the neither he nor the US liked. That was fine until he started looking at “our” oil in Kuwait.

Anyway, read this article about the United States burying the truth by executing Saddam to learn all about it.

BarnCams offers wireless surveillance camera specifically designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor and barn use. Their barn surveillance systems plug right into your TV, so you can keep an eye on those pesky cows from the comfort of your livingroom. Besides that, you can also stream your video over teh Internet, so if you’re away from the farm, you can still keep an eye on those cows. Pretty cool, no?

I have a feeling that these BarnCams would also work well in any other outdoor application, so if you just want to keep an eye on your yard or house, they would work great for that too.
