Off-Topic / Pick Your Own
« on: December 08, 2014, 06:19:19 am »Message ID: 941506
Do you think it's OK to let my wife pick her own Christmas gift and not even wrap it, just start using it right away?

Should I get her another one for the tree and not tell her?

Does anyone still active on this forum have more than 6,000 posts? (it shows under your name)

That's my next goal  :glasses-nerdy:

Off-Topic / No More Chocolate?
« on: November 18, 2014, 05:59:36 am »Message ID: 936148
Have you heard that the world is eating more chocolate than is being produced and that if it continues we will run out by 2020, especially because of the popularity of dark chocolate (which has more coca beans in it). One possible solution is to grow a variety that has less taste, but would that work for you? It would cut down on consumption, but could go the other way too far.

Off-Topic / Did you see this?
« on: November 07, 2014, 06:52:29 am »Message ID: 933326
I did my usual routine this morning, which of course included the daily Paid To Click for Fusioncash and wondered how many others saw the hillarious video (not a paid one) that was included on the Entertainment page?

It made me think back and you know, there is some pretty entertaining stuff on there once in a while. It's a shame many people just wade through the 2 1/2 minutes just to get it over when they might enjoy it if they slow down a little. Be patient, it takes a while to get through the introduction in their language.

Here's a direct link if you missed it:

Off-Topic / Boycotting Sports
« on: October 07, 2014, 09:16:30 am »Message ID: 924723
I have been a sports fan for decades including Baseball, Football, Basketball and many less popular sports, but what I see in the news about Comcast locking down ESPN broadcasts for the next 9 years so those not using their expensive service can't see them totaly burns my candle out.

I finally realized that sports is really nothing but entertainment and I am going to go somewhere that doesn't rip me off to be entertained from now on!

It makes me even more glad I cancelled my Comcast services.

Off-Topic / RSS Feed

Does anyone know if Fusioncash Forum has an RSS feed? I thought about using it to have If This Then That (IFTTT.com) send me a text message when something new shows up that I might be interested in commenting on.

Offers / Moon video worth watching
« on: September 20, 2014, 06:23:02 am »Message ID: 919429
If you are used to muting the sound while watching videos, make sure you turn it on for the moon landing 2 cent video. I thought it was really interesting to see what they can do today in relationship to what happened in 1969. Do you think the original photos were faked?

Have you ever created your own Digital Information Product, such as an ebook, report, video, webinar, course or anything delivered digitally online that you sold?

Off-Topic / Is My Dog Crazy?
« on: August 08, 2014, 05:02:53 am »Message ID: 906979
I have a 7 year old Chihuahua that weighs about 6 pounds that I leave dry food out all day for, but she hardly ever eats it. I also feed her about 1/4 can of top grade Taste of the Wild with a little dry mixed in and she eats it right down most of the time. However sometimes (like last night) she gives it a couple of sniffs and just turns up her nose.

Now here's the crazy part, I wait about an hour to make sure she isn't going to eat and then cut about an inch off the tip of a carrot and slice it up in tiny pieces that I can mix into the food. She gobbles it down like she is starving!

Is she crazy?  :dog:

Off-Topic / Windows Tip
« on: July 19, 2014, 07:10:41 am »Message ID: 900728
I still have Windows XP with no plans to change it soon, so I was happy to discover a new trick to make my time go easier.

I keep folders on my desktop with current projects to try to stay more organized and not forget them and I always right clicked to get to Windows Explorer (NOT Internet Explorer) until I recently figured out a new shortcut.

Now I click the Start button and click on My Documents, then click the folder icon with the green up arrow and I'm there.

OK, so I get excited easy, but I have used it hundreds of times already and it just makes me want to keep XP even longer.

Off-Topic / Any Clickers On Here?
« on: May 07, 2014, 10:47:49 am »Message ID: 878161
Just curious how many people click ads for traffic?

I made a new discovery this morning while I was clicking for credits on my favorite traffic exchange. I'm getting older and probably click too much (a couple thousand a day), so my wrists and forearm get tight sometimes. Long ago I discovered the technique of putting an old 8 1/2 X 11 binder in my lat to run my mouse on. Well today I did that and moved the mouse with my right hand while I clicked the button with my left index finger. I was quite surprised how much more comfortable that made it.

I know some people will think it's crazy, but I learned how to make it very effective for getting referrals for high paying programs. Especially with one particular traffic exchange I found where I use the Traffic Swirl Marketplace (Google it).

Off-Topic / New Twitter Profile
« on: May 02, 2014, 07:18:48 am »Message ID: 876273
Have you tried it out yet?

I am always looking for more ways to spread a few more breadcrumbs and this is a nice addition. I avoided it for a while, but that was because I didn't know how simple it would be.

Also it only takes a few seconds to Tweet your latest cashout, so why not see if it attracts a few new referrals?

I also surf one particular traffic exchange every day and they have Social Icons at the top of every web view, so it attracts a few visitors to my profile on Twitter and others. But even better, I can offer rewards for people to follow me on Twitter, so that sends a few more.

It's all about Exposure!

Look for @PocketMoneyMan if you want to see mine.

Off-Topic / Chicken Chili Recipe
« on: April 19, 2014, 03:14:46 am »Message ID: 871763
I watched a General Mills video today and after the penny was earned, they showed another video about making chicken chili in a slow cooker that really looked good. They put half the beans in a food processor and made a puree that I had never seen done. At the end they put a link to get the recipe, but it was so fast I couldn't catch it and even trying to browse for it was not successful.

Did anyone get that link?

I even tried to go back and watch again, but it wouldn't let me.

Off-Topic / Keeping Windows XP
« on: April 18, 2014, 06:57:53 am »Message ID: 871504
I'm keeping mine for making videos so I don't need to pay for an upgrade to Camtasia. The key is to keep it off the Internet, so I used an old Compac Celeron with 2 Gb of memory to install CrunchBang Linux on for an Internet Appliance. Now that people are in a panic, I see these older computers on Craigslist for as little as $20 and they work great for this.

How about you?

Are you keeping XP and are you worried about infections getting worse?

Off-Topic / Do You Have Cable TV?
« on: January 19, 2014, 05:28:47 am »Message ID: 841241
The next best thing to making money, is saving money and my cable tv with Internet was going through the roof! My monthly bill was like $170 and I finally had enough. I was talking to my son about it and he said he dropped cable and got one of the new Winguard flat panel HDTV antennas and got tons of channels to watch with no monthly payment. The antenna was only $29 one time!!!

Well we live in a hilly subdivision and when we moved here 40 years ago, we tried a normal TV antenna and only got one or two channels with so much snow you couldn't stand to watch it, so I didn't think it would work. To make a long story short, he brought his over, hooked it up in a few minutes and my jaw hit the floor. It got a better picture on the Network channels than the cable did.

So I am headed to Costco tomorrow to pick up a couple of them, so I can quit the cable tv vice. Then I ordered a competitive Internet service for $29 a month instead of $70 I have been paying, not to mention if I drop the cable tv and kept the same Internet service it would increase.

I should save about $130 a month after paying for the antennas and spending $8 a month for Netflix (which I already do anyway) and end up with all the entertainment I need.

My wife is on a trip, so last night I was surfing my favorite traffic exchange and watching Grey's Anatomy on my 32" Monitor.
