This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of LG Chocolate Touch. All opinions are 100% mine.

I gave up trying to keep up with the cool kids’ toys a long, LONG time ago. I am always on the look out for that 1 device that will do everything I ask of it and keep functioning like it should for years at a time. All these kids that come into clinic with their DSI’s, iPods, iTouchs, and even cell phones just kill me. Who has that kind of money to be spending on it all? Not I for one. If I can find a device that has it all then that’s what I need to spend my money on. My main functions are an MP3 player for the gym and if I can find something that will let me listen to FM Radio too that’s a score for me because the TVs have that option at the gym if I so choose. So we have radio covered. Then I would need a cell phone, camera with flash, video, calendar, and email as well. Combine all that and I’d pretty much be a happy camper so long as the sound quality was good and the phone itself looked good. What I do miss in my current phone is the TrackID that I used to have on my old one. I don’t know why companies don’t think that isn’t a much needed function.

The LG Chocolate Touch has all of these functions and more with the sound quality being Dolby. If you are into all the social media like Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter you are covered.

Sherlock Holmes

This has been a long time coming as it were since this movie just came out Christmas day. Of course I went to go see it since I did not have anything else to do. I also made sure I bought my ticket online the day before so I wouldn’t have had to go through that sold out fiasco with Alvin the Squeakquel. It was almost sold out by the time the movie finally started too.

Now if you love Robert Downey, Jr, then you will love this movie. He plays a mean Sherlock Holmes and Jude Law as Watson was a compliment to the entire movie. This movie was about 2-2 1/2 hours long and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Kept more entertained than Avatar I must say in that I wasn’t looking to see how long I had been in the movie and how much longer I might have to be there lol I even got the same seat I had when I went to see the Alvin movie because it was in the same theatre. The only annoying thing was that my phone was going off like hotcakes. Must’ve had about 20 or so emails and some text messages lol

I’m not sure which book this is based off of only due to the fact that I have never read any of them, shocking I know. I might just have to buy them now just in case they choose to do a few more of these movies. Of course this one was the serial killer who happened to like the occult as well and of course a well to do one at that. Seems to me that this is some sort of plot in almost any popular series isn’t it? Either way, a must see movie especially if you want to see Downey all buff in a fight with his shirt off. Hopefully he will stay off the drugs and alchy to keep in tip top shape for more roles as he is very talented in my opinion. Even when he did that stint on that show I think was called Ally McBeal? You know the one with the dancing baby, he was probably 3 sheets to the wind on most of those shoots but held it together enough to do a pretty good job. That was the only time I watched that show was when he was on it.

Casino Guides

logotypeIt just so happens that most of my friends took a trip to Vegas either over the Thanksgiving holidays or Christmas holidays. And what do you do in Vegas? Gamble of course. I was in Vegas years ago for a friends wedding and hardly left the blackjack tables. I wanted to get into a Texas Holdem tourney but they never had enough people to start it while I was there. That prompted me to hop onto a Casino Online so I could get my fix in. I have always loved watching Poker Stars, etc on TV and did not see why I could not do the same online whether it was just for fun or for real money and possibly get into a final table from one of the online entries that they have.

CasinoLaunchpad.com has a beginners guide for those wanting to start playing online whether it is poker, blackjack, etc. It is most important to be aware of what sites will allow you to play based on where you live because it could be illegal. Take my state for example, it is illegal to gamble, so I have to be aware of what site I am on if I so choose to play for real money. With that in mind, CasinoLaunchpad gives information about what some of the verified websites offer in terms of what you are looking for whether it be no deposit bonuses, matching bonuses, or casino bonuses. I personally think the matching bonuses offer more to me but then again others might think differently.

Should you be looking for some bonuses on the side then be sure to read the latest online casino gambling news link because it has a long list of what the casinos are offering for some of their games and exactly how much you would need to spend on which games to get a chance at some of the promotions. There is even the rules of some of the more common games that you may have been afraid to try such as craps or baccarat. Overall I’d say it is very informative and would help out some of the beginners very much.
