Ok, not sure if 1 minute of TV exposure qualifies for 'celebrity' status, but it sure does in the Lane household. Colleen was called this week for an interview aired on our local KEPRTV news channel. We had 15 minutes to get ready, as the interviewer was on the way to our home! I now know we can clean and pick up a house in 15 minutes! Colleen, nervous as all heck, composed herself perfectly. She's like that. The interview lasted about 30 minutes, but only 1 minute was used. If you care to watch Colleen's 1 minute of fame, fast forward the video to where there is 3 minutes, 50 seconds remaining:

The last time Colleen was on TV was when we were dating 24 years ago. When I saw her on "Let's Make A Deal" I thought she was incredibly pretty. Time…

Sometimes I feel like I'm wandering in the desert as I frequent many online circles, but cannot say any one place can be called home. I'm envious of the folks that have 'camped out' at one online location and have established roots. However, there are advantages to getting around. I'm subscribed to many affiliate marketing blogs as a result of Squidoo and a fellow was trying to sell the book, The 4-Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferris.

I'm not the conspiracy theory type, but I wonder just how much privacy we'll have left, especially with the advent of cloud computing. Enjoy this video...

I was reading Sellsius the other day. A great blog, btw. Actually, so good it's a time suck! Anyway, I came across a blog entry I thought repeating. The story as quoted by Sellsius goes,

Someone had their car broken into while they were attending a football game. Items stolen from the car included a garage door remote control and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard.

When the victims got home, they found that their house had been ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen.

The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house (go home feature) . They then used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house. The thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they…

As soon as I walked into this West Richland, Washington home I immediately noticed the spacious, clean, and well maintained qualities of the home. I loved the natural sunshine coming thru the house as well as the kitchen opening up to the dining and family rooms. The best part of this home is the large bonus room above the garage which can be finished however the new buyer would prefer. Take a look for yourself, as I've put together a virtual tour...
