Escaping Monday
Sometimes .. when I am feeling that sour-stomach feeling from stress and/or worry, I find the quickest fix comes from the attitude change caused by a certain image, or song, or .. a smile from a friend.

Ad Muncher: Free ad blocking for all browsers
Been in production for over 14 years….Was $29.95. Now Free!
I have used it several times when it was on sale. Broke my heart when it expired.
Better than AdBlock Pro. It not only blocks ads from your browsers but it does programs too. You can block the ads on Evernote and Steam..just to mention a few. It saves you bandwidth

Good to be back. RL has taken over for now. Just been so busy lately and the free GOOD stuff just isn’t out there as much.
Save 70% on Ghostbusters: The Videogame on Steam WEEK LONG DEAL! Offer ends 3 November
I am NOT a big fan of Steam/Valve but I finally bought THIS game.Usually I get the free ones or buy through the Humble Bundles and get both the PC and Steam downloads. But I just could NOT resist this game. $3.29 CN was just too tempting since I love the movies.
With Manhattan overrun again by supernatural creatures, gamers take the role of a new recruit joining the famous Ghostbusters team. Equipped with a variety of unique equipment and gadgets, players hunt, fight and wrangle a wide range of ghosts in an all-new battle to save New York City from its latest paranormal plague.
THE AUTHENTIC GHOSTBUSTERS GAME EXPERIENCE – Delivering a special gaming experience to the tremendous Ghostbusters fan base around the world, Ghostbusters™: The Video Game features the original cast from Columbia Pictures’ classic Ghostbusters films, including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson – together again for the first time in over 20 years. Supporting the original Ghostbusters crew are the talents of Annie Potts, Brian Doyle Murray and William Atherton.
Now I can’t wait for a rainy, stormy day to bust ghosts with the best. Bustin’ makes me feel so good!

delenn13,
An insignificant fee for hours of fun. (Especially considering tickets to see a movie, here, are $15…) Enjoy!
