Ghostbusters

I love the movie Ghostbusters, I even loved Ghostbusters II.  I heard a rumor about a next-gen Ghostbusters game coming out too, but that is beside the point right?  What could be better than Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and Harold Ramis getting together to fight supernatural beings?  Slimer is one of the ghosts, and every time I see him in these movies I crack up.  Anyways, Ghostbusters is an amazing comedy that should be seen by all if you have not seen it yet.  If you haven’t why the heck not?  Ghostbusters gets a 4.5 out of 5!

Hollywood Christmas Snow

Have you ever wondered how Hollywood produces all of that snow for Christmas movies? For those of us who are not “lucky” enough to have pounds upon pounds of snow that comes naturally there is a fun and clean (and much warmer) alternative called instasnow. Instasnow is movie quality snow that you can make in your own home for any occasion, which is clean and very easy to use. You can have all the fun of regular snow without the melting and the freezing. Instasnow is the only snow that will ‘erupt’ when you add water to it. Even though I have a ton of natural snow in my yard I cannot bring it in to put around the Christmas tree, but with Instasnow I can!

There’s Something About Mary

If you have never seen the movie Theres Something About Mary and you like comedies you are really missing out.  It stars Cameron Diaz and Ben Stiller and it is a super awesome and funny movie.  The movie was on television today, and I had forgotten how great the movie really is.  The part where he tries to bring the dog back to life with the cord from the lamp is the best.  This film is highly quoteable!  I give it a 4.5 out of 5!

Interactive Marketing

I am currently after a marketing degree in college. I was learning about the different types of interactive internet marketing, and I came up with a few different ideas, but the people that are the best at this type of interactive media development are at www.Terralever.com!

I was thinking that it would be fun to have a design your own Christmas wrapping paper program that somehow implemented whatever the company is selling. They say that the key to marketing is to give people something to do or something useful, so it would be really cool if they could print the paper that they create, and maybe put the website address on the bottom when the person prints it. The paper itself would not be that big, but they could interact by creating it, and print it to use it. I think that is like killing two birds or something right? I think this could work for Christmas cards or actually any occasion cards as well. As long as when you print the finished product it prints something about the company, it can be very interactive, fun, and useful.

Terralever.com is the place to go for interactive marketing ideas and campaigns. If you check out their site you can see some of the amazing campaigns they have done before, and it is really impressive! Interactive marketing is a great way to go for any campaign, because when people participate in things they remember them. Visit Terralever.com today for more information and ideas!

Deck The Halls

I rented Deck The Halls from Amazon.com to my TiVo the other night, and I have to say other than a few funny parts, the movie was sort of disappointing.  I usually have great things to say about movies, because I am not a really good critic, but this movie had a lot of boring parts and it was just pretty lackluster.  I am happy that I did not actually purchase the DVD which is usually what I do when I want to see something.  You would think a movie with Danny DeVito and Ferris Bueler could make for super funny stuff, but it really did not.  Anyways I am not saying not to watch it, it is a good movie to watch, once.  Just do not buy it!  I give this movie a 2 out of 5 stars.

Beautiful Wedding Invitations

Anyone who is getting married within the next year should really think about planning on what wedding invitations they would like to send out. A great place to start looking for the perfect wedding invitation is at www.1st-class-wedding-invitations.com, because their selection is unbeatable and the prices are very reasonable. You can get your order printed in as little as two days for those of us who like to wait until the last minute, but I would never recommend waiting like that!

I went through the process of making an invitation for a wedding on the site, because I have been thinking about doing a re-dedication for me and my husband’s 10th anniversary that is coming up next year. The process is very simple, and you can customize the invitations to say and look exactly how you want! I picked the Gown Calla Lily Vellum for the invitation, and it is beautiful. You can pick and choose what expressions are included on the invitation from a list, or make up your own meaningful expressions. I am including a picture below of the invitation that I fell in love with.

There are many beautiful designs and expressions to pick from, make sure that you do your research and pick the one that is the very best for you! This has gotten me excited about doing a re-dedication to our marriage!

Season 4

So I finally got the next season of Six Feet Under from Amazon.com, and started watching it.  The show told me everything that I needed to know so I was pretty happy.  I am already on the 7th episode because when I go on these streaks I cannot stop watching it!  I can’t help but wonder if Brenda and Nate are ever going to end up back together again.  It seems like they would but this show takes a lot of turns that I do not see coming.  Anyways, I am just stoked to be able to continue watching it, there is only the rest of this season and season 5 left to watch before I have to find something else.
