Printer Sharing

You know, I really am absolutely not technical minded. I have been trying to share my printer for days now and failed. I have given up!

My printer, Epson CX3900, is connected to my desktop computer running Windows XP Pro. I am trying to access the printer from my laptop which is running on Windows Vista Business. Although I do not use the printer much, it would be great if I could print the little documents that I need to print, remotely if I want to.

I read tutorials online that I should open access from my desktop computer. Well, I am stuck RIGHT THERE. I “think” I have already opened it but I couldn’t “see” it from my desktop.

SIGH I think I will have to do it the conventional way by emailing the files to myself from the laptop to access them from my computer or to save the files in my pendrive.

Actually, I still have another desktop computer that runs on Windows XP Pro too, that I would like to print remotely from. I figure this would be easier to network but I think I will give up lest I drive my blood pressure up!

Texas Personal Injury Law Firm

My friend, Paul, asked me to contact my sister to see if she could recommend a good Texas personal injury attorney. I don’t know why, no matter how many times I tell him that my sister is in Tennessee, he keeps thinking that she is in Texas.

Obviously, my sister does not personally know of a personal injury lawyer but there is a very experienced personal injury law firm with talented lawyers who would be able to help Paul’s friend who may have a personal injury case in Austin.

Luckily, O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath has a website so it is not difficult to look for contact information online so that this friend in need could contact the firm directly to seek legal consultation.

Buying Fresh Wedding Flowers Online

Although I shop online regularly, I have to admit that I never thought that buying something like fresh flowers would be a good thing. I know there are many online florists, but I thought that the flowers would not be as fresh as those purchased from our neighborhood florist.

Well, I couldn’t be more wrong when a friend bought her wedding flowers from an online florist and they look as fresh as those that we buy from our local florist. The up side is of course the wider choice in species and we can have flowers in some rare colors that aren’t available locally!

Since Fifty Flowers is offering free shipping on all wedding flowers, I think that it is a good choice shopping with them. Not only do they cater to bridal couples, they also have just the right flowers other major occasions.

Beauty Schools Across America

Quite a number of my girlfriends lost their jobs recently and I am not surprised. After all, women are usually the first to be asked to leave when companies make the tough decision to retrench staff.

A couple of friends have decided to go back to school and I think that it’s pretty apt that they have decided to go to a beauty school to take up a beauty course since they were in the industry for quite a while, except that they did not have paper qualification.

Regency Beauty Institute is a popular beauty institute that offers various beauty courses in major cities across America so if you are looking for beauty school houston or Tennessee or Kansas or Wisconsin, Regency Beauty Institute will be there for you.

Planning A Wedding

My friend, Soo, told me that he has plans to get married at the end of the year. He told me that they had to postpone it as the grandfather of his fiancée passed away a couple of days ago. He told me that in a way, this unfortunate turn of events has given them more time to plan the best wedding they could.

Soo and his fiancée plan to plan their wedding themselves. This would help them save some money besides the fact that it is more meaningful to be hands-on on such an important event in their lives.

I told them about The Knot Wedding Shop where they would be able to purchase wedding gifts, groomsmen and bridesmaid gifts, unique wedding favors and lots of other personalized gifts for people that matter all under one online store and at reasonable prices too!

Rare Coins & Precious Metals

My friend was telling me that it’s now a good time to expand his investment portfolio. Actually, he was rather apprehensive at first but since the Central Bank has once again cut interest rates for the second time this year, it is no longer viable keeping cash in the bank.

Although my friend does not have much experience with trading in rare coins, he is willing to give it a try this time and has been doing his homework by reading up on rare coins online, checking out in particular the resources available freely on the website of Monex Deposit Company (MDC).

He is not eyeing silver coins, especially american silver eagle because they make good investments for the future. Of course, besides rare coins, my friend is looking into precious metals as well, seeing how the price of gold could sustain even in this time of global economic distress.

Searching For Passion and More

I get a lot of arranged dates and introductions from friends because I am single. Some would even ask me to join online dating sites. Frankly, sometimes I think that they are more desperate than I am to marry me off. It’s not that I want to remain single forever; just that I still cannot find someone that I like enough to spend the rest of my life with. People say I am too choosy but then I owe it to myself to find the best match, right?

Just this morning, I got to know about passion search, an online dating and free personals websites with a difference.

As you know, I have browsed through and even registered with quite a number of online dating sites but this one looks different to me because membership is open to couples as well. That’s right, you don’t have to be single to register with Passion Search; they accept straight, gay and lesbian couples as well.

Even though from the name of the site, we have the impression that members are here looking for a date, a life partner or just having a good time, there is an option to search for “online friends” or “activity partner” so anyone who is looking to expand his/her social circle could join Passion Search too.
