We’ll be at the beautiful La Valencia Hotel in La Jolla – 1132 Prospect Street.  Yes, that’s a glimpse of the Pacific and the San Diego coast curling up towards Oceanside, a little taste of the view we’ll see from our broadcast location poolside, on the patio!  Come by and celebrate Friday, the weekend, and summer in San Diego with Sam and me!  Everybody loves a KyXy Life’s a Beach Friday…here’s a pic of my little guy Cristian, enjoying last week’s Life’s a Beach!

I thought Cragislist was just a place where people tried to unload TVs nobody wanted, but it looks like the website was instrumental in reuniting Milady with her owner, Sandra, who had not seen the dog for four years.  It’s a great story (complete with video) – see it HERE.

Rhema Marvanne is the little girl with the big voice!  She’s from Texas and she sure can sing.  She’s also got a part in Gerard Butler’s new movie, and can belt out diva favorites by Whitney & Celine!  Get more on Rhema HERE, including a video of her performing!

And these are not off brands… I see laptops on the list from big makers like Dell and HP.  Click HERE for a list of 10 laptops, each selling for less than $500.

Justin (pictured) and Elton are two names that have just surfaced as possible AI judges.  I’ve read lately that Elton can be a little cranky, so he’d be a good fit for the chair being vacated by departing Simon Cowell.  One source says we may even get an entire new panel of judges on the show.  More on that is HERE.  Reps for Elton and Justin say the rumors ain’t so HERE.

Think about it.  They are!  I can take pictures much more quickly with my phone than with my digital camera – sometimes it takes 3 or 4 seconds after I push the button before the camera actually captures the picture – and by then, many times, it’s too late!  My phone only has a 2 megapixel camra, but it does OK.  A friend here at work just got the new Droid X phone (pictured), and it has an 8MP camera.  Think about when you last took a picture with your camera, not your phone, and then click HERE to see if you’re like everybody else!

That big number is 1 “trillion” dollars.  That’s how much the national debt is here in the U.S. right now (and I worry about paying my house payment!).  What could YOU buy with $1,000,000,000,000?  You could buy over 40 million new cars, or over 5 million typical American homes.  See what else you could buy with that kind of money HERE.

A good way to keep the china from chipping or breaking, is to store each dish between – coffee filters!   And I’ve got another 11 alternative uses for coffee filters HERE.  They sure are handy!

The most serious downside of all – you could end up with a very expensive “brick” – an iPhone that doesn’t work at all!  To see all the upsides and downsides to unlocking your iPhone – before you do it – click HERE.

Along the same lines as my post below, about saving money when you have a baby.  Here’s a list of REALLY ridiculous baby items that you don’t need and can’t afford anyway.  I am not paying $250+ for a cardboard box for my baby’s nap!  Six more really stupid (but expensive) baby items – HERE.
