Free Stuff @ MindSay 
1. Take advantage of bargains and opportunities.
2. Find ways to make more money.
Thought I was going to suggest something like "lose 20 pounds" or "exercise more," didn't you? And while there's nothing wrong with either of those, most people who make resolutions like that give up by Valentine's Day (admit it; you fall into that group
).
But the two I listed above are easier to keep than you might think. Let's face it; with economic times the way they are these days, you should consider every possibility to make these times less painful. Then again, it doesn't mean that you have to panic and start believing all the "gloom-and-doom" forecasts from the talking heads on TV.
Now with all the concern about the economy and rising unemployment, it's really not smart right now to look into the possibility of working from home, right?
WRONG!
Granted, people who are concerned about their futures are generally not going to get excited about any business opportunity, especially if it involves a great deal of time and, more importantly, money. And they certainly don't want to waste any of those on something they're not going to be excited about regardless of the economic times.
But what if I told you there is an opportunity out there that's recession-proof and has wide appeal?
Now before you scoff at the idea, I ask that you keep an open mind. It doesn't hurt to at least check into it.
Might I suggest Freebie Force? It's the best one-stop internet portal for free (and nearly free) items of high value you never heard of (yet!).
Members get access to pre-screened links to free items (no dead links or "jumping through hoops") posted daily. There are about several hundred links to free stuff at any given time. All for only $9.95 a month.
I've personally received gift cards from Outback (no surveys or "requirements" to complete
), a pocket watch, coupons for free burgers at Wendy's, free samples of deodorant, granola, cereal, candy, and more. And most required no shipping fees. If it wasn't for Freebie Force, I wouldn't have known about these freebies. If you'd like to see a video of me talking about Freebie Force, just click on the link from the post below.
You also have options; you can simply maintain a Freebie Force membership and get great freebies only OR you can also make additional income by becoming an independent distributor at no additional cost or upgrade. The choice is yours! Furthermore, if you decide on just the Freebie Force membership now but would like to make money with it at some point in the future, you have that option open to you as well.
But wait, there's more!
You have 48 hours to try it risk-free!!! If you decide within 48 hours of initial signup that you're not satisfied with Freebie Force, simply cancel before the 48 hours are up for a full refund of the 1st month's fee. And if you decide to stick with it for some time, you may also cancel at any time (no refunds, though). No contracts here!
So are you curious? Why not start the New Year right by doing something that can truly make a difference in the lives of yourself and your family. Please go to:
Thanks for reading! Have a happy, safe, and prosperous New Year!

Some people are a little skeptical about the Freebie Force program. Perhaps I should help anyone reading this to understand it better.
You may have come across banner ads or received spam email proclaiming "FREE Laptop!", "FREE Xbox 360!", etc.. But if you look at the fine print, you'll likely find something like "with completion of requirements." Now I'm not suggesting that these offers are scams (some I know are not, because I know of at least a couple of people who went through all those hassles and actually received the free item offered). But most people do not have the time and patience to complete said requirements, and most ask for a credit card number (yes, you'll likely be forced to buy stuff you don't want). When all is said and done, that "free" Xbox or laptop may have cost you several hundred dollars.
Freebie Force doesn't fool with any of that stuff. In fact, their staff pre-screens every potential free offer that comes across their desk. They make sure their members do not have to "jump through hoops" in order to receive the freebie offered. Some just require shipping information, a few may ask you to take a brief survey, and others are as simple as "point, click, and print." A few may require a small shipping fee and still a few others are considered "almost free" (offers not totally free but were just too good to pass up).
I hope this explains things better. I recommend you visit my site at http://www.all4nada.com for more info.
Thanks for reading! Till next time...

I know the price of things is going up lately. Everything from gas to groceries! Folks are concerned about having the basic necessities of life, much less having disposable income to eat out, go on vacation, etc..
But what many people don't realize is that there are actually sites online that offer FREE items. You've got sites out there offering free things like samples, gift cards, restaurant meals, software, even airline tickets!
But the sad fact is that most people will never hear about them. The average American is bombarded with advertising messages on a daily basis, so much so that most are ignored altogether. Furthermore, we've become increasingly jaded and cynical whenever someone offers something for "free." They think there has to be a catch. Sure, it's understandable; I've come across the banner ads on Myspace and elsewhere offering "free" items like gift cards, PS3 consoles, laptops, etc.. Then you read the fine print at the bottom of the banner ad about "completion requirements", so you have to "jump through hoops" to get to the so-called "free" item. So you're now have to pay for and be stuck with a bunch of stuff you really didn't want, like a membership in Columbia House or another checking account.
You want stuff that is actually free! Stuff where all you have to do is either submit name and address or even something as simple as point, click, and print.
There is such a site; in fact, it's a one-stop portal for many free items offered on the web.
It's called Freebie Force, and it's quickly becoming the fastest growing site of its kind on the web.
If you're even mildly curious about it, I suggest you click HERE to get all the details about this phenomenon.
You can also make a few bucks by telling your friends and referring others.
So go ahead and check it out for yourself. You even have a few days to try it RISK-FREE!

When we got to campus, sis and I met up with Maria to help get things together for the French Club's booth at Winter Cruise, a campus tradition in which many clubs/organizations set up booths, follow a theme, and give out freebies and info about their group. This year's theme was James Bond in Candyland, whatever the hell that's supposed to be.
Anyway, Maria brought us all coffee, which was super nice of her in spite of the fact that I'm not a big coffee fan and hadn't had a cup of coffee for at least six years. I say this now, because I'm giving you a heads up to the fact that after drinking my big cup o' joe I was on a crazy ass caffeine high for the rest of the day and was pretty much bouncing off the walls. The downer to my energy rush was that my stomach ached for as long as my energy lasted...so that's no good.
But anyway, so I spent the majority of my day at the booth, helping keep little miss pulled-an-all-nighter (aka Maria) awake, giving away french kisses (i.e Hershey kisses), various other types of candy, bubbles, pencils, paper hearts, and information about the French club. Also, I designed a fortune teller that allowed people to learn what famous dead french person they were in a past life. As it turns out, quite a few people were Napoleon Bonapart and Marie Curie. Who'd have thought? (the options all together were the two previously listed, as well as Jean D'Arc, Gustave Eiffel, Marcel Marceau, Simone de Bouvoir, Claude Monet, and Josephine Baker--yes, I realize not all of them were french but they found fame in France so same difference :P ).
Anyway, as a whole it was super fun. I saw a few of my friends and/or people I knew from past classes and had fun gushing to Maria about the loveliness of Ryan's voice (I let her hear a msg from him, she quite agrees). Other pass times included teasing Maria about her love of bearded men, talked about people we saw walking around, watching the Bond man dance around, fending off a crazy straw-hat wearing man who was after Maria's heart (poor girl, not only did he not have a beard but he was also a good ol' boy. Accent and lack of sophistication included. Plus he was down right creepy), and eating candy.
While at Winter Cruise I managed to get all kinds of freebies. Said freebies include but are not limited to:
A 2007 Homecoming Tshirt from the SGA [Student Government Association] (I was asked to fill out a comment card and tell them how they're doing. I said they're doing well and begged them to get Weezer to come for one the spring/fall concert lol), two plastic cups (one from the SGA, and another that Maria took from the SGA and wrote "Fraincais is cool" on), a "This is what a feminist looks like" sticker from FMLA [Feminist Majority Leadership Alliance] (where I saw Veronica who was quite rude to me. It's not my fault she sucks as a president and never gets anything done), two tote bags from the SPDA [Student Painting & Drawing Association] (I had to pay for these, however, I got to choose a free V.day card which was rad. Some of them were stupidly retarded, though....like "You're my ass rainbow!" wtf?), oogles of candy, a mini toothbrush, a plastic martini glass, and a "sand garden" aka a wooden tray that I filled with all kinds of beach-related things (mini flip flops, drink umbrella, starfish, sand dollar, foam flamingo and palm tree, rubber alligator, etc) minus the sand. One of my favorite things that I got was a giant button with my face super imposed over a nun's on it (I look like my eyes are going to fall out. It's funny. Sis got one with her face super imposed over Vince Vaughn's and she's standing next to Owen Wilson. The button makes me drool. *siiigh* lol).
I also got to shoot a glock at a paper wedding couple (the glock was rigged to shoot air) for $1. I did nicely ;). Oh, and sis, Maria, and I got our pic made. Voici:

(Left to right/top to bottom: Me, sis, Maria) I look like a snob. I love it. lol
After W.C. ended (at 4pm) I took Maria out to a super late lunch at Zaxby's. This one guy that worked there kept coming out and looking at me it a weird way. Gave me the hibejibes.
Later we met back up with sis (who had abandoned us around 12 for classes and paper writing) and hung out in the art building. While there, I saw Ira as well as learned that I can hold a tube of lipstick with my boobs and apply it evenly to my lips (No, Ira was not in the room when I discovered this talent). Impressive, right? Blame this new found knowledge on Maria. It's her fault for watching The Breakfast Club.
Thursday was pretty mellow. Painting was okay'ish and Litho was the usual (i.e. lots of joking, dirty double entendres--apparently I'm into waxing cucumbers, and down time with friends). I got my first etch processed on my stone...so...yay. Also, John (prof.) ran after sis like a little girl saying "Whyyyyyyy, Laken, whyyyy?" It was ridiculously funny.
Something interesting? Saw Cory. I had my back to the door while I was "massaging my stone" (i.e. rubbing gum arabic all over the surface) and I heard someone behind me go "Mea B...[Last name protected for obvious reasons]" So I was like *who on earth would call me by my full name?* and turned around. It was Cory. idk why. He stopped by before his drawing class with Donna, though. Then he came back on his brake and hung out. Ugh...I swear, he's liked some kind of a drug that gets into my system and makes it hard not to think about the possibility of things happening there. Greg was saying to me that he [Cory] has been having problems with Jessica. He also told Greg that he's ready to have sex and is going crazy. So, I don't know, he's retarded. And I need to stop seeing him. He keeps giving me bad thoughts and ideas that I would never want to follow through on. Especially for Jessica's sake.
Anyway, after classes sis, Maria, Greg, and I (we invited Cory but he declined so I ran through the parking lot saying "Cory P. sucks!") went to Olive Garden where we laughed insanely, I was uneasy over the presence of a giant child who slept very rigidly and who's mother later picked it's nose for it (I'm thinking "it" was a he but who knows?), and probably made our waiter [Scott] feel very uncomfortable. Plus I think he thought we were all flirting with him. How sad for him...
Yesterday I basically did nooothing of relevance. I worked on a History paper which was due at Midnight that I managed to send to my prof. at 11:57:44pm. Whew. Other than that not a whole lot happened. Little got done today, too. I finally cashed the two Subway checks I'd been carrying around for close to a month and I donated a $1 for the March of Dimes and received a almond and chocolate bar that I am now eating.
Workload for next week includes:
Hist: Take quiz 2x and prepare for the exam
Marriage & Fam: get 1 more woman and 3 more men to take my survey so I'll be able to give Betsy the results on Wednesday
Painting: Finish figuring out proportions / under painting by Tues and begin adding color
Lithography: Complete my 2nd etch and produce at least 1 "good" print (though I really need to do my whole edition) by Thursday.
Has anyone seen any of the episodes of Gossip Girl on The CW? Just curious. I've seen some previews and am kind of interesting but I could just be being swayed by the music they've been playing with the show clips. lol
