My Opinion – What’s it Worth?

Well this is my favorite blog… It was a brainstorm of mine after meeting a friend who had a celebrity blog and was making some money at it.. ( A living actually)

It was a crazy dream of mine that people would actually be interested in what DaveStuff actually has to say. I figured people would often search for “controversial opinion” (and they do) would want to comment on my silly opinions and perhaps contribe to them too. I am #1 in controversial opinions in google… But to what avail?

I used techniques I learned from ProBlogger to put this site together and hopefully to monetize it! (Do ya see the ads?)

I have not made enough money to even get the first check from Google‘s AdSense program. But that’s OK

I Still Love To Give my Opinions and have more plans to continue this blog and to certainly keep my loyal readers happy… I get anywhere from 20 to 60 visitors every day and would love to keep serving it up!

I’m working on a new brainstorm now… On a later post I’ll elaborate on that one…So stayed subscribed… You dig?

TV Series “The Shield” The Show’s Over

Well, my favorite TV show “The Shield ” has come to an end. I wrote a review about it awhile back. I got addicted to it years ago when channel surfing one night when I was bored.

They more or less wrapped up the characters as best they could while keeping the violent crime and disturbing images rolling on the last show. Those guys have come to be my friends Sorry to see their lives just got so screwed up.

The last show was actually quite depressing. To see that knucklehead Shane kill his wife and kid’s and then take his own life was just pitiful… And the fact that Vic lied to his loyal partner and let him go on to be convicted of all of his wrongdoings was pitiful too.

Oh, you could say that Vic’s life got screwed too even though he saved his own skin. He now has to work at a desk for years and his family got put into protective custody to protect them from his twisted justice kind of ways. So now he NEVER get’s to see his wife and kid’s again. Gee he always seemed to put his family first…Whatever…. That silly guy.

I noticed the black cop’s character which they let fade away a few season’s ago was taking a hard look at some gay guys that were happily chasing each other around on the streets. I assume he was wishing he were doing the same. He got married to a girl but her character was never heard from again. I assume he stayed with her but would still prefer a “boyfriend”

Yep, Ronnie had to go to prison because Vic got immunity and then lied to him saying that it was for the both of them…Remember he needed to protect his “family” Vic’s a family man you know? (I just keep hammering on this one)

Dutch is still finding serial killers and that 2 faced David is going to be mayor finally… Everybody got what they wanted…Except the “strike team” Crime doesn’t ever really pay does it?

Vic and the Boys… Have a good time! You will be missed…

Hancock – Super Hero Movie with a Twist

I like super hero movies… I saw Batman The Dark Knight Recently… Very Kewl.

Hancock is certainly a different take on Super Hero movies…This guy is a drunk with super human powers (like Superman) and has an attitude of FTW… If you know what im saying…

He is always tearing up stuff as he saves people and catches bad guys… He seems to have no guidance or morals when it comes to how he get’s the job done… Very interesting.

He then saves a guys life that becomes his friend and “consultant” on how to become a cherished super hero instead of one considered to be an “asshole”

I also checked out “The Bucket List ” this weekend… It was a moving story about 2 guys that are terminally ill and create a list of things to do before they “kick the bucket” Great story and photography as they travel worldwide… Almost holding back tears at the end… I hate that…

Using Debt Cards at Restaurants. Risky?

So you go to a restaurant and you order some food for you and your date.

When the bill comes you simply give the waiter your debt card and they bring back a slip of paper for you to sign.

Balance $4512

Tip ______________

Tax $4.50

Total____________

Now you write in a tip and do the total and that is what should come out of your bank account right?

Not always... In fact the past 2 times I have eaten it has said something different when I check my account online. The tip was either wrong. Or I left the tip blank and left cash but a tip was taken out anyways.

So why the discrepancies? Confused

Then sometimes I’ll look at it a day or so later and the balance has changed once again…Either up or down… You just never know. Guess Ill start taking cash to go out and eat because most of them won’t take a check either.

How risky is it to hand your debt or credit card to a waiter anyways? What is to stop them from writing down that number and then going shopping online when they get off work?

You guys be careful… Ya dig?
