Thanksgiving Day
Happy Thanksgiving Day everyone!
Today is the celebration of Thanksgiving here in the U.S. Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrated on the fourth Thursday on the month of November. It started since 1863, President Abraham Lincoln during Civil war, proclaimed a national day of thanksgiving to be celebrated on Thursday, November 26. The “First Thanksgiving” was celebrated by the Pilgrims to give thanks to God for guiding them safely to the New World, America. The first Thanksgiving feast lasted three days, providing enough food for 53 Pilgrims and 90 Native Americans. The feast consisted of fish and shellfish, turkey, berries and fruit, vegetables and harvest grains and beans. The New England colonists were accustomed to regularly celebrating “thanksgivings”—days of prayer thanking God for blessings such as military victory or the end of a drought.
Gun mug
Do you think this mug is cool? It’s kind of weird to me. It’s ideal gift to somebody who is into guns. It’s made of ceramic and holds 8-ounces of hot beverage. It’s five by three by four inches. It’s dishwasher safe.
Shopping online
Do you shop online often? I enjoy shopping online. I normally shop at amazon for books, dvds, cds and other stuff. Shopping online can be really fun because you have a great variety to choose from. I don’t normally shop at some sites that I am not familiar with. If you’re thinking about shopping on a site with which you’re not familiar, you should make a research, read some reviews and check out the seller’s site such as, look for websites that have a secure way of paying (known as an encryption facility) – these show a padlock at the bottom of the screen when you are filling in the payment details.
- You should ecure your computer with anti-virus and anti-spyware software, and a firewall software.
- Compare prices and search for the same products on various different sites
- Check the shipping charges
- Check some discount Coupons
- You should keep a paper track. Print and save records of your online transactions and receipts.
Social networking sites
Social networking sites have been really popular these days. Through social networking, people communicate and meet some new friends. What is social networking? Social networking is an online platform that offers on building social relations among people who shares the same interests, goals, and activities. Social networking sites offer users email, instant messaging, photo and video sharing. It also involves groups, individuals and organization. There are many social networking sites on the web today. Among the popular social networking sites are Facebook,Myspace, Twitter, Bebo, Plurk, hi5, Friendster, and Multiply. However, I would say that Facebook is the most widely used social networking site these days. So, if you want to find your long lost friends and meet new friends. Sign up and make a profile now at any social networking sites.
Private browsing
You can browse the web without leaving any trace in your Internet browser. We know the fact that it is nearly impossible to anonymously browse the net, however, Internet browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Google Chrome will allow you go incognito whenever you wish to browse the Internet.
The private browsing mode will reject cookies and will not keep a surfing history in your cached files. So, other users in using the same computer would not notice where you browse the net or where you had been up to on the net.
Well, in my case, I don’t use private browsing. But if you are using the office computer you can use private browsing, but you have to remember that some companies may have installed software in the computer so they can track where their employees have been up to on the web.
Additionally, remember that websites will still be able to collect information about. Malicious software can still track your keystrokes in exchange of free smileys. Surveillance by secret agents can track and of course, people standing behind you.
