Repxchange Beta
Repxchange Beta RepXChange: Do you sell things on Ebay and you've had it with "undesirable bidders". These are the bad buyers that no one wants to have to do business with. This site was started by an ex-Ebay Power Seller and helps you collect user ID's to add to your "blocked bidders list" on Ebay. This is a list of bidders with whom sellers have had a bad experience with and no longer want to do business with. The power of it is in the numbers.
The purpose of RepXchange from the site itself:
"RepXchange allows sellers to generate and download a list of bidders who have slighted other bidders in the past and add these IDs into their own blocked bidders list. By doing so, sellers proactively protect themselves against bidders who are likely to cause them loss of time, money and reputation."

Goodbye Boss, I'll Miss You!
I received word today that one of my online friends and web host of about 10 years had died back on April 18th. The sad word came to me by email that David Black was dead from one of his business associates. David was always online and I had been sending him emails for the past 3 weeks wondering where he was. He was always online so when he didn't answer I thought something was odd. But then I thought maybe he took a much needed vacation and I'd wait another day and send another email and nothing. So this news of his death has really blown me out of the water. I had even sent emails asking him "hey, you alive?" how sick that is to me now.
David was a kind gentle soul with so much wisdom. He had a way of always making me feel better about things and myself. He was a brilliant programmer and the best web host I ever had. He was kind, non judgemental and wise beyond his years. He didn't hold grudges, and no matter what happened to him he kept on rolling. He was from Texas but of late had gone home to Oklahoma about 5 years ago when his Mom was diagnosed with cancer so he could be with her in the little time she had left. On her death bed she asked David to stay and take care of her elderly husband. And that's what he did. Because that's the kind of man he was. His word meant something and his friendship was always true and steady. I think he was only 44 years old. So young to leave this earth. Why did God take him away? I know he missed his wife who was killed by a drunk driver when David was in his twenties. He loved her so and you could hear the pain in his voice whenever he spoke of that incident. Always a sense of loneliness.
I don't know where you are tonight boss ( I always called him that) but where ever you are I hope you have been reunited with your wife and your mother. For I know that would make you so happy. I've always wanted you to be happy and to find love again. As of late I know you had been speaking with an old female school friend and were really enjoying yourself. Even mentioned you might go to Washington to see her. How could this happen? they say it was something like "Aortic Aneurysm" that killed you. You even drove yourself to the hospital. That's so like you. You always did everything on your own terms.
I'm going to miss you boss every day. You were truly a dear friend and you taught me a lot. We only knew each other online. We use to joke how we were going to hook up someday and have a beer together. I guess now that will never happen. We always think there's tomorrow, that is until they stop coming. Perhaps now we will meet in heaven. Won't that be fun. I love you Boss and I miss you so much already. Sleep well my friend. Until we meet in eternity.

Generator Software’s Header Generator
Generator Software’s Header Generator
Header Generator is a very useful point-and-click
software program designed to create header graphics
for your websites.
It’s been proven that well designed header graphics draw
attention and can boost your website conversion ratios
up to 30%.
The problem is most people are not graphic designers so
it can get expensive to create these type of graphics
every time you create a new website.
Header Generator eliminates this problem making it a
very cost effective alternative to hiring a graphic
designer.
Since the software program has been built for people
with very little technical or design skills, it is
impressive just how quick it can be to create a header
that matches the layout and design of the rest of your
salesletter.
With this program there are no restrictions as to the
number of header graphics you can create and with over
300+ templates included in the package, it’s very easy
to get started.

Dog Detective® - Lost Dogs & Found Dogs - the first and largest pet recovery network on the Internet
Dog Detective® - Lost Dogs & Found Dogs - the first and largest pet recovery network on the Internet:
This is a little off-topic today but something that I think is very important. If you've lost or found a dog, you must go to this site. Did you know that "32% of lost dogs are found over ten miles from home. Dogs are ten times more likely get lost if they are not spayed or neutered. " As a dog owner myself I shudder to think how I would feel if my own dog was out there somewhere, lost and alone.
Dog Detective has been online since 1999 and is one of the largest pet recovery networks online today. So if you've lost your dog make sure you post it on this site and if you've found a dog, go to this site and maybe you can help to bring home someone's loved one today. Make sure you bookmark the site as it's one of those services you don't know when you'll need.

Happy Halloween From Dakota and Gia!
This was my first Halloween without Teddy Bear, and it's a little tough. Every year I have this tradition where I dress the dogs up in costumes and take their pix. I then create cards or flyers and send them out to about 40 of my friends. This was Gia's first year and since she just turned a year old she wasn't very cooperative. Trying to get her to sit still is like trying to kill a mosquito with a needle...impossible.
Dakota on the other hand is a ham. He'll literally "work for food"....if you know what I mean. He has food issues and is in sore need of Jenny Craig services for dogs....if someone would invent that they'd make a fortune. Here is my creation for this year! Happy Halloween Teddy Bear....and to all of you!

Miss Gia Turning 1
My "little girl" is turning 1 on Oct 21. Can you believe it? I remember bringing her home as a small puppy just a few months ago. It's amazing how fast he year has gone by, but considering it started out with the death of "Teddy Bear" I can't say I'll be sad to see it go. My hope is that next year starts out on a better note. Happy Birthday Gia! You are an angel.

Miss. Gia- Isn't She Long
I have not weighed her lately but I'm guessing she's about 13lbs now and so long. All legs she is. A lot of people say she looks like a deer. I guess that would be about right. She's so beautiful I just want to squeeze her up.
Gia in Her Pretty Pink Dress- 9 Months Old
I love putting clothes on Miss. Gia. I don't know how she feels about it, maybe she finds me annoying or crazy. That's ok. I am.
