Christmas Hookups

I'm always looking for a hookup, especially when money's tight. I think many of you think the same way I do, so I'll use this blog to highlight a few deals I find throughout my week.

A 'heads up': This blog doesn't have to be all about sales and shit. I think some of my future posts will be about non-tangible hookups as well. I could just drop some knowledge on your asses like give you some FREE career advice or maybe some info on how to buy a plasma or a digital camera OR maybe a hookup on how to maintain a healthy relationship...you never know. Seriously though, regardless of the topic, my goal will be to always have fun. Oh, btw, writing's not my thang, so cut me some slack if you see a few grammatical errors....cool? Let's think of it as a creative writing class and these posts are my assignments in which I always get A's for effort. Word!

OK...let's get to the deals, aka the hookups. For my first blog, I'd like to present to you the deal of the week....I call it, "Shit That I Would Like to Buy but Can't Because My Wife Forces Me To Be A Fiscally Responsible Adult":

1. WowWee Robotic DragonFly ($15)- great for a kid who likes to fly kites but doesn't have wind...or a kite for that matter. LOL...whatever.

2. Corion 42" LCD 720p - $499.99 (from $999) - I'm on the fence with this product...the reviews are good and the specs are decent. I guess I'd buy it if money's tight (which it is) and I absolutely needed a 42" LCD (which I do) AND I only had $499 to spend (which I don't)...otherwise, if I had more cash, I'd buy something better. NEXT!...

3. George Foreman Grill $15.99 (save 50%) - great to give as a gift, especially for Christmas or to a housewarming. Make sure you include a pack of pork chops and a couple of steaks too. That's etiquette rule number 582, which also says "don't be a cheap ass". Not giving meat to go with the Foreman is like giving a remote controlled car to a kid without giving him the batteries. That's some ghetto shit! Sorry folks, rules are rules...include the damn meat!

Quick rant... I used to receive RC cars all of the time when I was a kid but never was I given any batteries to put in em. It would take days, after receiving the gift, before my pops would remember to buy a pack of cheap ass Rayovac batteries. In the meantime, I would try to play with my battery deprived cars but that shit was obviously no fun. Oh, and when I finally had batteries, my cheap ass gift only went in three directions - forwards, backwards and right. Thats it?!! WTF?? Why was LEFT never an option for these cheap ass cars? Now that's some evil shit! Shame on the toy manufacturer AND on whoever gave me the shitty gift. I digress.

Damn....now I'm in a foul mood. I never knew blogging could be so emotionally painful.

Well, hope y'all enjoyed my first post. it may be my last... LOL
