Possible celebrity website in the works

I'm thinking of starting several different blogs or websites in the future. I was seriously thinking of making one about celebrities, maybe about stars that have babies and the baby picture if I could get it. But then I thought why bother because there are so many celebrity blogs and websites out there already that it would be a total waste of time. Do we really need yet another blog about Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan? Do we really need yet another major waste of Internet space on those nasty girls from that really airhead waste of time show, Beverly Hills something or other? I think NOT!

But then I thought, that's where the money is. The reason the money is there, is even regualr news stations are doing celebrity news now. They are devoting valuable news time talking about stars. Celebrities are everywhere, and we have to hear about them every day. Whatever a major celebrity does means BIG business for so many media outlets. Major magazines, photographers, advertisers, newspapers, and all kinds of cable TV shows ae making large amounts of money by talking about celebrities and showing their pictures.

Sounds like a super easy way to make major mooolllaaa to me!

That's because stars are the people we fantasize about becoming. Everybody, except my husband wants to become a star. We all want our 15 minutes of fame. And so many regular people are becoming stars by appearing on really bad reality TV shows like Rock of Love, Flava Flav, the Bachelor, and the Bachelorette. And those are only some of the really awful TV shows out there.

People are becoming stars and making major dollars by being on these shows. We are appearing on You tube and other Internet social networking sites in hopes of gaining fame. That's why we watch all these shows with regular people running do irregular things. Because we want to have a great time, and make tons of money doing it! Who wouldn't want to be a star?

We are fascinated by what stars do and how great they look and if somebody got a boob job, or a face lift. It's because they live charmed lives and believe it or not, most of us don't. We work hard for what we get in life, and stars hardly work at all and make millions for not working real jobs.

They live in FANTASY land, while we slave away. That's why we actually like watching them from afar and wish we were like them.

Considering that I am writing about stars, I have to mention a major good looking Australian actor. Eric Bana has been in several movies inlcuding, Munich, Lucky and Troy. He is tall, handsome and oh so cute! He has that puppy dog look down pat. Maybe I'll start a wesite all about him. I made my husband rent Eric Bana movies on Mother's Day for me to watch. I for one can't wait until he stars in another movie.

Going Green For Mother's Day

What gifts can you buy for Mother’s Day that are environmentally friendly? With everyone going green these days why not buy Mom some environmentally friendly gifts?

What can you get Mom for Mother’s Day and save the earth at the same time?

Here are the top ten going green gift ideas:

1. How about getting Mom a goat? Or would this idea be more suited for a Dad? Get Mom a goat this year for Mother’s Day so she doesn’t have to mow the lawn . A goat can do all the work munching on the lawn, and you’ll be saving the planet at the same time.

2. Get Mom potted--- plants, that is. The kids can plant a garden from seeds, so Mom can sit back and watch the plants grow. Just make sure you put a fence around the flowers so the goat doesn’t eat them.

3. Buy gifts on the Internet from the comfort of your home. This way you won’t be emitting pollution into the air, thus keeping the air safe for everyone. And with gas so expensive, you’ll be saving money in the long run. Hey, if you get free shipping with your online purchase, you are that much further ahead.

4. Let's get this compost started! Start a compost area right in your very own kitchen by purchasing an inexpensive home composting kit with a plastic bin. They come with a supply of red worms and instructions on how to get the composting started. Hey, the kids will love seeing the worms wriggling around, in the house!

5. Buy Mom an environmentally friendly windmill of her very own. She’ll be thrilled with this expensive but super green machine. She will be so happy when she realizes all the energy you will be saving.

6. Plant a tree near the house. A tree that produces pretty flowers during the spring will be an added bonus. This way the house gets some shade during warmer months and serves as a windbreak during colder windier months.

7. Buy Mom some sweet smelling natural products that are environmentally friendly. Buying Mom natural products that can be purchased at a food co-op and even some of the big-box stores such as hand cream, body lotion, and even lip balms can be a GREEN way to go.

8. Don't be a tightwad! Buy some of those canvas bags and put a nice gift in one of them. She’ll be so happy at the sight of those incredibly versatile, yet incredibly ugly bags, she’ll have hugs and kisses for everyone. And of course, she’ll love the gift too!

9. Buy Mom some vintage clothing or thrift shop garb. This way you are saving money, but reusing clothing in a very good way. Consignment shops and thrift stores in very pricey neighborhoods carry some designer clothing, purses and shoes for super savings!

10. Here’s a great way for Mom to work out and get some close to home errands completed. Get Mom a bike. This way she can ride to nearby stores to get quick errands done, and save gas money and the environment at the same time.

Going green for Mother’s Day gift ideas. A great way to save the planet and make Mom happy for her special day.
