Counterfeit Money Detector Pen Revew

I have worked in retail for far to many years to count and in all my time behind the register it has always astounded me when people try to pass fake bills. Do criminals really thing they are fooling people who deal with money all day long? None the less they still try. So my favorite way to catch them is to use a counterfeit money detector pen and you can pick one up from itestcash.com. This site is great. It provides tons of different options to protect you from counterfeiting.

The pen is really self explanatory, all you have to do is mark the questionable bill and if it is real then a light amber / tan ink line will appear. If not, a dark brown / black line will appear.

Hopefully store clerks will never to have to deal with this situation but if you do, then the money pen is the easiest and quickest way to handle the bill.

Sick of getting welts from paint ball?

A new type of game has emerged from those who have felt that paint ball isn't for everyone., Airsoft. The game itself is very similar to the rules of paint ball, so is the equipment. However, as the Airsoft name suggests, the plastic BB that are used as ammunition are not as painful. Also Airsoft supplies tend to be less expensive then paint ball.

This is perfect for younger players easing into paint ball or gamers who don't have the money to spend on a full fledged paint ball outfit. Also the gun replicas are very real looking (despite the orange strip) and allow the gamer to further get into his sport element.

Christmas Maps dot com

Just in time for the holidays I stumbled upon (that button works wonders sometimes) a site called ChristmasMaps.com. This site is dedicated to helping people find Christmas light displays. It has show dates for all 50 states and D.C.

The others of this site must really like the holiday season as they state they are expanding the site to include Christmas music and movies. Thats a lot of Santa Clause.

I don't know what to expect the long term out of this site but for the holidays, if you have young kids, this is the site to utilize. Make sure to report any shows you have seen or know about to ChristmasMaps.com so others can share in your fun.

Also a note. The site is holding a contest to bloggers to help them increase web traffic. Click for the details.

ListAfterList.com

There is a new interesting site I came across called ListAfterList.com. This site is full of what you would expect, lists. Lists of everything imaginable. The purpose of the site is basically to condense and share information with others.

For example if your visiting a town that you have never been to, then you could go to ListafterList.com to find out what are a few individuals top 10 places to eat. Personally I wanted to see lists of the top individual baseball players. So I searched and found the ten best pitchers according to a list submitter.

Another option would be for me to submit my own list. This would especially useful for the future as it may inspire others and spur discussion. Check it out if you have a chance.

A New Shot at History (Briji-llient!)

A New Shot at History -

Washington, DC has had a handgun ban for the past 31 years, and is now the scene of the latest gun control debate. Next spring, the Supreme Court will hear a case that could open the Second Amendment to reinterpretation. Dick Heller, a federal security guard who carries a gun at his job, is challenging the city to be able to have a gun at his home in a once-rough DC neighborhood. The authors choose a peculiar commentator for the article, a former drug dealer who backs their light argument against the ban.
