Blogs, Birds, and Things Learned

Well I just recently found out about this opportunity. They start out by saying, " Imagine telling your friends that your computer earns money while you are sleeping! It could happen if you are selected to be an Active Gomez PEER in the Gomez PEER Community." Gomez will be selecting a diverse group of PEERs to be paid for their computers' processing time. Right now, Gomez is looking for users from all over the world with different Internet connection types, including dial-up and broadband users. They say that they will review your application within (14) fourteen business days and email you your account status. After that your account will be set to either active, pending, or inactive . The more time time your computer is available to be connected to the Internet, the better chance you have of getting your status set to active. They review accounts every (7) seven to (10) ten days so the more time your computer is online the better chance you have of your accoun

HCD Consumer Research panel is an online survey panel I want to tell you about. It is only open to individuals at least 18 years of age or older. Membership at this time is limited to residents of the United States. Only one person per household is eligible to sign up and take surveys. So far I've only received political surveys from them, although they say that they also issue surveys with topics such as, entertainment, health care, political, food and beverage, and financial. Some of surveys seem to have a video theme, e.g. watch video, answer questions. So it’s pretty simple. The surveys are usually fifteen minutes or less and they pay in points that you exchange for cash. Surveys are normally 100 to 200 points per survey but considering those 100 points = $1.00, it can add up quick. Once you have accumulated a minimum of 1000 points you can cash your points in for $10.00 or you can just let it accumulate and have a bigger pay out later. Points are only good for US Doll

I'm new to this world of blogging so I thought I'd start with a little story about yesterday afternoon. I was sitting in front of my computer and heard a strange hissing noise (sounded like someone using a can of spray paint) so I think, maybe my husband is home from work early and outback painting something? I got up and looked out the window, there on top of our shed were these two enormous birds who were mating. I quickly grabbed my camera and ran to the back door to get some video. When I got to the door the birds were sitting side be side just soaking up some sun and looking around. I took a couple minutes of video before they flew away and started to think about what kind of birds they may have been. Suddenly Turkey Vulture popped into my head. I thought, could it really be a Vulture? I've never seen one that close. I've lived in and around this area my whole life and this is the first time I've seen one let alone two up close. So I go to Wikipedia and look
