Black Friday!!

Repost from a year ago and it still applies!!

It's almost that time of year when after our tryptophan-induced comas (read: turkey make me sleepy) we bargain hunters set out to shop for the best deals on the hottest products. Black Friday is only a couple of weeks away and lots of big name stores are putting out their ads and sale prices already. This should allow you to set a plan of attack and prioritize that big-screen HDTV over sleep on turkey day. Check below for a couple of sites devoted to black friday shopping. They do a VERY good job of finding, categorizing and posting the sale information and even actual circulars of many stores before anyone else. Most of the items even have pictures taken straight from the ads that you will otherwise see in stores soon.

Hit these links for my 2 favorite black friday ad sites.

Also, check out the forums on each site for more info, including last-minute sales, local sales and even freebies.

If you are venturing out to the brick and mortar stores, expect a scene like this...

ENNEAGRAM Test

Your result for The Quick & Painless ENNEAGRAM Test ...
2 - the Helper

Thanks for taking the test !

2 - the Helper
you chose CX - your Enneagram type is TWO (aka "The Charmer").

"I must help others"

Helpers are warm, concerned, nurturing, and sensitive to other people's needs.

How to Get Along with Me

* Tell me that you appreciate me. Be specific.
* Share fun times with me.
* Take an interest in my problems, though I will probably try to focus on yours.
* Let me know that I am important and special to you.
* Be gentle if you decide to criticize me.

In Intimate Relationships
* Reassure me that I am interesting to you.
* Reassure me often that you love me.
* Tell me I'm attractive and that you're glad to be seen with me.

What I Like About Being a TWO

* being able to relate easily to people and to make friends
* knowing what people need and being able to make their lives better
* being generous, caring, and warm
* being sensitive to and perceptive about others' feelings
* being enthusiastic and fun-loving, and having a good sense of humor

What's Hard About Being a TWO

* not being able to say no
* having low self-esteem
* feeling drained from overdoing for others
* not doing things I really like to do for myself for fear of being selfish
* criticizing myself for not feeling as loving as I think I should
* being upset that others don't tune in to me as much as I tume in to them
* working so hard to be tactful and considerate that I suppress my real feelings

TWOs as Children Often

* are very sensitive to disapproval and criticism
* try hard to please their parents by being helpful and understanding
* are outwardly compliant
* are popular or try to be popular with other children
* act coy, precocious, or dramatic in order to get attention
* are clowns and jokers (the more extroverted TWOs), or quiet and shy (the more introverted TWOs)

TWOs as Parents

* are good listeners, love their children unconditionally, and are warm and encouraging (or suffer guilt if they aren't)
* are often playful with their children
* wonder: "Am I doing it right?" "Am I giving enough?" "Have I caused irreparable damage?"
* can become fiercely protective

The Lover Style Test

This dating site that I joined has a sister site that hosts lots of quizzes that help with compatibility and matching you with others according your answers (duh). This is my result for the Lover Style Profile Test.


Your result

The Liberated Lover

77% partner focus, 67% aggressiveness, 55% adventurousness

Based on the results of this test, it is highly likely that:

You prefer your romance and love to wild and daring rather than typical or boring, you would rather pursue than be pursued and, when it comes to physical love, your satisfaction comes more from providing a wonderful time to your partner than simply seeking your own.

This places you in the Lover Style of: The Liberated Lover.

The Liberated Lover is a wonderful Lover Style, and forms the kind of free-thinking, sexually-exciting, self-confident lover that society once condemned but that a liberal-mind cherishes and exults. The Liberated Lover is a treasure to find, though it can sometimes be difficult to do so because they are often already engaged in relationships or are in high-demand if "in the market."

In terms of physical love, the Liberated Lover is possibly the most thrilling and demanding of all, with the one potential drawback being that it is possible to feel 'overmatched' at times by their prowess and selfless giving. Given trust and understanding, and the right lover, the Liberated Lover can be a delight in bed.

Best Compatibility can probably be found with: The Exotic Lover (most of all) or the Carnal Lover, or the Suave Lover.


Take it for what its worth, a little bit of fun and insight.

Before I Go...

I am going on an actual vacation tomorrow night to the Dominican Republic and wanted post a couple of things before then. I had promised you reviews for a few things and have waited much too long for them to still be relevant. Anyhoo, here goes:

Iron Man Movie - Great. Go see it. Twice.

Iron Man Video Game - Garbage. Dont bother. Dont even rent.

Grand Theft Auto IV - Excellent. Go buy it. Twice. And play it a lot.

Ninja Gaiden 2 (Game) - Definitely a possible buy. Do yourself a favor and start off on Easy.

More in-depth reviews of current and upcoming games and movies and music and whatever else I feel like posting coming soon, soon after my wonderful vacation to the tropical paradise that is Punta Cana.

Dating Persona Test

So, I joined a dating site. Yes, I did. More on that later. I was browsing the site and came upon some tests they have and decided to check one out. It was called the Dating Persona Test. It ultimately tells you what kind of dater you are and who you would match well with based on 4 adjectives, sort of. So, you are either: Deliberate or Random, Gentle or Brutal, Love or Sex, and Dreamer or Master. Hey, dont ask me, I didnt create the test. Here are my results. Interesting to say the least.


Your results are in! elduro13, you are...
The Poolboy
Random Gentle Sex Dreamer (RGSD)


Friendly and eager. You are The Pool Boy.

A teen at heart, you anxiously move about your daily tasks, hoping, praying for a good, instant lay. You're carefree, enthusiastic, and rarely discouraged. Love is cool, but it's not for you right now. You know what is? Crotches.

You're a fun person in both big and small groups, and your friends trust and love you. Inside you, meanwhile, your lust is only growing. Imagine your beating heart sprouting pubic hair. Exactly. Try shaving that.

If you're not scoring enough--which you aren't--you should adopt new strategies. Lower your standards. Be aggressive. Pool Boys are often submissive and hope (desperately) sex will find them. Realize that passiveness will not hook the horny girls you desire. A bolder approach and sheer repetition will.

Your exact male opposite:

The False Messiah
The False Messiah

Deliberate Brutal Love Master

Lil Wayne

Lil Wayne has somewhat renewed my faith in 'Hip-Hop' these days. His latest hit "Lollipop" seemingly came from what must have been a joke line in one of his previous songs. "So I let her lick the (w)rapper." That word could mean both in the song. Either way, the beat in this song is ridiculous, ridonkulous even. Its so infectious. It is one of the most chill/relaxing beats I have ever heard but unfortunately its also on one of silliest songs I have ever heard. None of that matters. If you can get your hands on the instrumental version of this song, do yourself a favor and put it on repeat and just listen to it. Chill, grab a beer, smoke, eat, whatever it is you do to relax and play this song. You wont regret it. Unlike myself regarding this post tomorrow.

I'm Back...Again.

I have decided that after a long hiatus from this blog, I will be trying much harder to keep posting. Its tough to do when you have limited time and limited motivation. Ultimately, I think we will all (both readers) benefit from this. It gives me an outlet for my ideas and opinions and gives you something to help you get to sleep quicker at night. So, yeah...
