Double nickels of link love!

I have a tradition of running a mile for each year I have been around on my birthday. As I get older, that gets harder to do by the mile. But one can change the measure to minutes and be successful. This year that would be farther than I can do on the comeback trail so I settled for 2.55 miles. Cute huh!

But I was still thinking about what I could do for double nickels.

Send an email? might be considered s*p*a*m... not good

Send a tweet each minute? might be inconsiderate of my followers... not good

Give link love? ah, the gift that everyone appreciates!

Now how do I get 55? Since my bloglines feed listing exceeds 800, this by nature will be selective. Let me count the ones I most frequent or find the most good stuff on. In somewhat alpha order since I started with Blogrolling listing. If I left you off, it may have been an oversight or a sign of my new age. :-)

Speed limit 55

speed limit 55, originally uploaded by TheTruthAbout....

The body is constrained, especially by the laws of gravity and age.

The mind however, really has no limits other than what you place upon yourself.

As you wake up each day, a new birth each day, it is your choice.

What limits will you test? Learning doesn't come from the safety of the center. Learning comes from exploring along the edges.

I will run today and set about enjoying a wornderful milestone.

What will you do today?

How is your radar set?

Gift idea: Handcrafted Wine stoppers

I had the good fortune to meet Keith Burtis at PodCamp Boston 3 (PCB3). He usually does live video but in this clip he shows the steps to make one of his wine stoppers.

Now that would be a good gift idea for someone who likes wine!

Do you know someone who likes wine?

Care to Connect

Image via Wikipedia

Recognizing that we all have special charities that we support during this time of the year, however, if your charity includes supporting our men and women in the military then, you may find this AT&T program interesting.

AT&T Care to Connect

AT&T Inc. has announced the launch of "AT&T Care to Connect" in all AT&T retail locations nationwide. The program allows shoppers to give $1, $5, or $10 toward prepaid phone cards for military members. AT&T will match the total dollars collected by the program through Dec. 21, doubling the amount of phone cards issued to the troops via customer giving alone. Phone cards generated through AT&T Care to Connect will be distributed to troops in Iraq, Afghanistan and other overseas regions between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day.

• For more information, log onto www.att.com.
• Note, the cards can only be purchased at an AT&T Retail Store location.

Thanks to CK for the information on this.
