Daily Prompt: Bartering, Old Fashioned, Or New Age?
Daily Prompt: Barter System
If the world worked on a barter system, how would you fare?
Would you have services to barter?
Would you be successful, or would you struggle?
Photographers, artists, poets: show us SKILL.
The old saying is that you get farther with honey than vingegar.
If you have a bee hive then you have gold.
We have customers who trade us products for some pretty strange items and services.
I am currently in the market to barter for a dishwasher and a dryer…wish me luck.

Daily Prompt: Dear Telephone Solicitor
A word of advice to any poor soul who works as a telephone solicitor.
Speaking English is a plus.
Non English is tolerable if I can understand what you are trying to say.
http://www.easychoice.com/ tried to call three times today.
The background noise from other solicitors doing the same thing from other telephones was so bad that I could not hear the broken English of the person on the phone trying to reach me. I realize that they are trying to make a living. So am I. I do not call everyone to try and make a sale. My hubby gets up early in the morning and starts to advertise all over in free spots. We do well with our businesses without annoying people with telephone calls.
I am suggesting this book to you so go to http://www.amazon.com and take a coffee break or a lunch break and read it.
You might get some creative ideas on how to find a new way of making money without annoying people with caller id.
Then a local restaurant mysteriously found our business card in their fishbowl…two free tickets to dinner…too bad I recognized the voice as they are trying to sell a water system…
Have had two different businesses wanting to know if I want to place an order this month…
Hello world… hubby has to have surgery next month…we can’t buy anything till we know what our co-pay will be.
There now I feel better.
Guess my tag today is not a nice one.

Daily Prompt: Innovative Thoughts, Tomorrows Products
Daily Prompt: The Next Big Thing
What will the next must-have technological innovation be? Jetpacks? Hoverboards? Wind-powered calculators?
Photographers, show us INNOVATIVE.
clubs.ncsu.edu
Inventions a lot of times are created by someone who just did not like the way something worked and they had an idea of how it could be so much easier.
The average housewife finds ways to use products that are innovative in her daily routine without even realizing it. She might take a product that was meant for one thing and use it for an entirely different purpose. Men do the same thing in their workshops. They might find a certain tool that if modified works much better on a project.
This is innovation this is the process of invention.
I have yet to see the slinky reinvented.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slinky
That was a simple invention that has been around for the decades.
It does come in vibrant colors now and does glow in the dark. What will be next for this product?
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dtoys-and-games&field-keywords=slinky+toy
Will it be able to make perfect toast next? Will the next step be a different movie theme? This has proven to be a timeless toy.
It is similar to the Shape O Ball from Tupperware
Only the color has changed through the ages…it is also a timeless piece.
What would your innovative thoughts create?
Would love to hear from you.

Daily Prompt: I have been touched by strangers
Daily Prompt: Stranger
Have you ever had a random encounter or fleeting moment with a stranger that stuck with you?
The delivery of baskets yesterday was just one day of many that we have had for https://www.facebook.com/Mikefest2013?fref=ts
Not only do we have Businesses who want to be vendors at the festival. We have businesses who have other commitments and will not be joining us that day.
The donations this year are incredible. Despite everything going on in the world, kindness still does exist.
I have felt an abundance of kindness and caring from people that I have met, friendships that I have made that would have never have happened otherwise.
Taking the time to sit and hear each of their stories of how they got into business, their health problems that they have been through that have brought them to the place where they want to give back. It has been priceless.
I am just a mere penny in a fountain. When you add all the pennies together though you do have a wish that has come true.
Help from just one day
The rest have already been delivered as we ran out of room.
Thank you and a list will be made very soon of all of the Donations that were made besides the participating Vendors.
With only a few more vendor spots to fill and just 12 more days to fill them we are confident that this is going to be a great year.
Wounded Warrior Sgt. Keith Hale and His Family were the recipient for the Mike Fest 2013. If you would like to be a part, let us know.
Would love to meet you and get to know your story also.
Free Local Benefit in Woodlawn
http://www.clarksvillenow.com/pages/16037820.php?fb_comment_id=fbc_521009604622790_5152910_521799947877089#f322ca4d0f5ae9c
CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Hard-rock bands from the Nashville and Clarksville areas will perform at the fifth-annual Mikefest on Saturday, May 4, to raise money for Sgt. Keith Hale and his family.
The outdoor event, at 3825 Old Dover Road North in Woodlawn, just south of Fort Campbell, will feature several hard-rock bands from the Nashville/Clarksville areas.
Bands confirmed to play include: Mindset Defect, Killing Grace and Transcend the Fallen.
Although admission is free, donations are accepted, and all proceeds will go to Sgt. Keith Hale and his family. Hale was wounded in Iraq during June 2010.
Several vendors will be selling food and drinks, and raffles and live music will be provided for crowds to enjoy during the festival.
Each year, hundreds of people attend to show their support for local music and businesses and America’s troops. This is an all-ages festival, and families are welcome. Violence, gang colors and drugs are strictly prohibited.
Mikefest is a free, annual event created by Byron and Melissa Russell in remembrance of Michael Charles Russell, who passed away during their vacation while on a ride at Disney World, due to a non-diagnosed heart condition. Rather than mourning Michael’s passing, they now celebrate his life by remembering him through this fundraiser, which benefits a different charity each year.
“Since the passing of our son, Michael, in 2006 we have received a tremendous amount of support from the Clarksville, Fort Campbell and Woodlawn communities. So in 2008, we decided to stop mourning his loss and celebrate his life with local charities each year,” the Russells said.

Daily Prompt: Going List-Y
Daily Prompt: The Satisfaction of a List
Who doesn’t love a list? So write one! Top five slices of pizza in your town, ten reasons disco will never die, the three secrets to happiness — go silly or go deep, just go list-y.
Why do we make lists? What type of lists do we make? Are they to keep us organized, help us to remember or just something to doodle when in a meeting?
I decided to explore the different types of lists that people make. Here are my findings.
The Ever Famous Summer Bucket List…(Kids are out of school for break, have limited time to get it done in short time)
Then I began to think about what do we use list for besides…
Menus in Restaurants
Making Appointments
Having a party or wedding
Taking notes or inventory
Cleaning Lists
Hmmm
We make this so we do not impulse shop
Ah the Honey Do List…
Now it is time for me to make my list like the prompt said…
I need to decide which list to start with first…
Perhaps I need a list for my lists
Should they all be neatly lined on the fridge?
Do I line them up by importance?
What deems the list more important?
My fridge has a Honey Do and Grocery…
Both are forgotten by hubby…
If I could eat in a corn free restaurant, I would love a menu
I don’t drink, so I do not need a wine list.
I am a little old to start a bucket list
Today is day off from A-Z Challenge
Tomorrow I do the Letter M
That really is a list of sorts, yet broken down by day
It does not feel like a list that is in a list.
I guess you could easily say that my lists have lists.

Daily Prompt: Organizations I Chose To Be Beneficiaries
Daily Prompt: Charitable
You’ve inherited $5 million, with instructions that you must give it all away — but you can choose any organizations you like to be the beneficiaries. Where does the money go?
Wow with that amount of money it was a tough question.
1. Mike Fest 2013 (Would set it up so each year a recipient would receive a set amount). This year is Wounded Warrior Sgt. Keith Hale.
https://layedbacklife.wordpress.com/2013/04/09/daily-prompt-mikefest-history-and-today/
2. Paws with a Cause Local Chapter Max’s Hope
https://layedbacklife.wordpress.com/2013/03/09/give-a-shout-out-to-our-local-organization/
The other charities I would have to think about for a bit and ponder. My reason for this is that I have a problem with Administrative fees. With these two that I have chosen, the money goes directly to the cause at hand for what is intended.
Perhaps if I just split between the two that would be enough to keep MikeFest and Max’s Hope going for years to come.
Have a Blessed and Happy weekend and stay safe.

Homemade Dryer Sheets
I have heard so much about these and so many people are using the Tupperware containers to store them in that we can’t keep them in stock. They are using the container with a neat lift out center to keep the liquid in the bottom for reuse. I found a blog on another site with another great way to recycle flannel shirts and make them.

Sugary Substance Ban in NYC – What is Next?
It is rare to find a can of soda pop in our home so this came as a surprise for me to read that a Mayor would take such a drastic step in his city to try and control the obesity. There are very few of the diet soda’s that I can consume due to my corn allergy. I do drink a ton of coffee, however when we go out to eat which is rare, a diet soda is what I will order if they do not have sweet tea. Will coffee be next on the hit list?
Here is what the news had to say on this subject.
By Howard Koplowitz | March 01 2013 2:46 PM
As New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s ban on soft drinks larger than 16 ounces gets set to take effect later this month, Gotham residents are deeply divided over the controversial initiative.
A little more than 50 percent of New Yorkers oppose the ban while 46 percent support it, according to a new poll released Thursday by Quinnipiac University.
Under the mayor’s plan, which goes into effect March 12, soft drinks larger than 16 ounces cannot be sold in restaurants, movie theaters and other places regulated by the city’s health department.
Bloomberg, a lame-duck mayor who is nearing the end of his third and final term, has unveiled initiatives aimed at making New Yorkers healthier throughout his tenure, including banning smoking indoors, doing away with trans fats and urging restaurants to cut back on salt. The mayor’s other health-conscious proposals have been warmly received.
While the mayor doesn’t have to worry about the next election, those vying to replace him would be wise to side against the soft drink ban, according to the poll.
The Quinnipiac survey found 29 percent of voters are less likely “to vote for a candidate who backs the drink ban,” while 21 percent said a candidate’s stance on the controversial policy won’t factor into their voting decision.
The survey found New Yorkers were divided as a whole, but Republican voters and black New Yorkers — two groups with generally very little overlap — largely oppose the ban. The poll showed 65 percent of registered Republicans don’t like the ban while 33 percent support it. A majority of Democrats – 52 percent – support the ban, compared to 46 percent who don’t.
While whites and Hispanics were roughly split on the ban, black New Yorkers are largely against the ban. Six in 10 blacks oppose the soft drink ban and 38 percent support it, according to the poll.
The survey also showed that Bloomberg’s job approval rating still hovers above 50 percent, although his popularity has dipped since taking office in 2002.
“Mayor Bloomberg maintains his pretty-good-for-a-third-term job approval,” said Quinnipiac poll spokesman Mickey Carroll. “No more of those 70 percent numbers that were routine in his second term. But, as his tenure winds down, we still like him.”
The poll’s respondents were also asked whom they think did the best job as New York City mayor. Bloomberg ranked third at 24 percent. He was followed by late Mayor Ed Koch (25 percent) and Rudy Giuliani (31 percent.)
New York soda ban could be the end for children’s pizza parties and mixers for bottle service as Mayor mandates no soft drinks can be sold over 16oz
PUBLISHED: 16:57 EST, 24 February 2013 | UPDATED: 17:55 EST, 24 February 2013
Next month, Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s ban on sodas and sugary drinks larger than 16oz will kick in for all bars, restaurants, cafes and delis in the city.
The new law could have the unforeseen effect of killing pizza parties, children’s birthday parties and taking the fizz out of bottle service at high-class bars.

New Yorkers were furious to learn that the soda ban will prevent pizzerias from delivering 2-liter bottles of soda with pizzas – thus putting the kibosh on a time-honored family meal.
The New York Post points out that most pizza joints charge $3 for a two-liter. Six 12-oz cans – a roughly equivalent amount of soda – will cost $6 to $7.50.

‘It’s not fair. If you’re gonna tell me what to do, it’s no good,’ Steve DiMaggio, of Caruso’s in Brooklyn, told the newspaper. ‘It’s gonna cost a lot more.’
Representatives from city restaurants have been lobbying hard against the mayor’s new law and they say the ban on delivering 20 oz bottles with pizzas makes even less sense than the other provisions.
‘It’s ludicrous. It’s a sealed bottle of soda you can buy in the supermarket. Why can’t they deliver what you can get in the supermarket?’ Robert Bookman, a lawyer for the New York City Hospitality Alliance, asked.

It’s not just pizza parties that would take a hit. Bowling alleys and other spots that serve soda in pitchers to large groups of kids are also going to have to change their tactics.
The ban applies to sodas and surgery teas and juice drinks. Diet sodas and 100percent juice are exempt.
The mixers available for customers who buy bottle service at high-class night clubs will also be restricted.
Currently, unlimited amounts of soda, cranberry juice, tonic water and other popular mixers are offered for anyone who pays for a bottle of liquor at clubs across the city.
The law counts all of those a sugary drinks – they can only be served in 16oz bottles – even though they are meant to serve several people and not just one.
Bloomberg says too much soda consumption is resulting in obesity problems – especially for low-income New Yorkers and children.
The ban aims to reduce the amount of soda that New Yorkers consume.
