Wouldn't it be great if you have night vision whenever you want? Night vision goggles, night vision binoculars, and night vision scopes are just some of the cool gadgets being featured over at Opticplanets.com. But that's not all that they have! They also offer tactical/military gears, microscopes, sunglasses, binoculars, and much much more! Personally, I'd want to get one of their flashlights (never ever go on long trips without bringing one!), spotting scopes (for my digital camera), batteries (it's always sensible to have a spare set around) and that great waterproof drop-resistant ipod case for my ipod nano.
There are wonderful deals to be had, if you browse through their online products. And to top it all, they offer free UPS ground shipping! Now that sound real good to me! :)
This is a really convenient script to un-clutter your site : flooble scripts expandable content.
Here's a sample:
Yup, will be using this one of these days. :)

Since I wasn't prepared to take a dip at the pool,
I had my handy camera with me while
the others had a dandy time getting all wet ....
and cool!
It wasn't the best place where i was at,
(because the sun occasionally had a chance to "hit" me), but
it had the best angle for taking those
unlikely shots.
Or maybe i was just bored. lol.
Have you ever been wronged? Or something done to you without you knowing why you were dealt with that way? Life can really be so unfair at times, specially if it gets turned upside down in a blink. If you have, be sure to watch USA Network's Burn Notice, scheduled to premiere on June 28th!
Watch as Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan) copes from being a spy to being "burned" (meaning, he gets fired) while on a difficult mission. He gets dumped on the one place he vowed he'd never return, with his old foes trying to gun him down, while the government freezes his bank account and made sure he'll never work again. But he's got his Special Ops training still intact, and being a survivor since 17, he scrapes by lending his services to those who can't approach the cops. He's on a different mission now, though; and that is to find the person responsible for him receiving the Burn Notice. Of course, he can't very well do all of these on his own. He's got two "friends" he can always count on: Fiona Glenanne (Gabrielle Anwar), a former ex-girlfriend who happened to be associated with the IRA for 14 years, before she left the organization, and also an expert in explosives and lock-picking, amongst other things; and Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell), a former Navy Seal, Military Intel Operative, and all-around Cold Warrior.
Whether Michael wants to or not, he needs them. Watch how Michael deals with all of these, together with his adoring mother, Madeline (Sharon Gless), who helps him get clients while playing cards with her neigbors. Armed with his Special Ops training, some good "friends" and a doting mother who keeps calling, let's watch Michael as he reluctantly becomes everybody's hero.

Wonderful blue skies and fluffy clouds ... greens on the ground ... last weekend.
Took this shot while the car was moving, since i just couldn't stop from clicking my camera and take a shot of those candylicious clouds hovering by. Hubby was game enough to slow down the car for a bit ... though not for long, or else we'd be causing traffic! lol.
Wonderful cool weekend, it was. :)
A friend has been buying most of her digital stuffs at Circuit City, and so far she has been satisfied; both with their in-store and online services. She has been recommending the store to me, but I haven't bought anything from them, yet. That is, until I found out about coupon codes. It certainly got me interested, specially when I looked at the site and saw all those discounts! Over at Couponchief.com you'll get coupon codes not only for Circuit City, but also for Adidas, Best Buy, Home Depot, as well as other large stores. So let's hurry on over and check out those coupon codes!
received this thru my email ...
