Where can you buy an Asus netbook with a 10.1” display and Intel Atom inside that usually sells for around $380 for only $179 plus five dollars in shipping? Woot!, that’s where. Do you know about this site? If you don’t, you’re missing out on some of the best deals around and a heck of a lot of fun. Woot! made a name for themselves among online retailers with their “One Day, One Deal” idea. This site is a weBEgirls must!  Read more>

When I know I need a boost to return me to an optimistic thinking path, I’ll pick up a copy of Success magazine. Success’ tag line is “What Achievers Read”. Who doesn’t like to think of themselves as an achiever? (If you don’t maybe you can start a magazine called Failure; What Losers Read.)  Read more>

Yesterday Helen Thomas, the first female officer of the National Press Club, the first female member and president of the White House Correspondents Association, retired amidst an uproar of controversy over her comments that Israelis should “get the hell out of Palestine” and “go home” to “Germany or Poland or America,” thus ending an illustrious and highly respected career covering 10 presidents with a 15 second blurb of folly/fury (or something like that).
