Michael Jackson

I was sorry to hear of the untimely death of Michael Jackson - although I always felt that he was frail. I hope he didn't suffer too much in his final hours and hope he rests in peace.

Toll Positions - Harvey Brody's Patents Live On

I love it when someone provides elegant solutions to problems. You know the type of thing - the wooden drawer in your wardrobe stops running smoothly and jams every time you open and close it - and then someone tells you to rub candle grease on the runners to make it run smoothly again. That's a fast, cheap solution to a daily problem - and although you might choose to have the drawer repaired by a carpenter, the candle grease works well in the meantime.

Now imagine it was you who provided the candle grease solution; further, if you had patented the solution and sold the candle grease in a dispenser just for this purpose, and had arranged the manufacture of this dispenser, selling it to distributors, then you control the whole process. You also earn money on each and every sale of your invention.

That's effectively what Harvey Brody did many years ago now as a young man when he invented the Zoom-Spout® Oiler. It is still being sold today - see the Zoom Spout Oiler being sold right now on eBay.

How do I ask my girlfriend to marry me?

“The Wedding Proposal Of Her Dreams”

Popping the question…it’s not so easy is it? And the last thing you want to do is ask the question in such a way that it’s about as memorable as last weeks left over stew. You want the day you asked your sweetheart to marry you to be as memorable for her as her wedding day itself. Yes, it IS possible. All you have to do is use a little imagination. This article will give you some tips to get you started.

Hopefully, if you’re actually serious about marrying this girl, you know quite a bit about her. Of course these days, that’s not always a given. But for our purposes, we’ll assume you do. Great, so what does she like? What places has she told you about that she’d love to visit? What’s her favorite food? What’s her favorite night out? What does she long for almost as much as your company? If you’ve made a mental note of these things, coming up with a wedding proposal idea shouldn’t be hard.

For example, let’s say that your gal has always wanted to go to a Broadway play. Let’s say that her favorite ones are the love stories. You know, where the guy gets the gal at the end. This is perfect. At the end of the play, when she’s crying with tears of joy, pull out the ring from your pocket, open up the box, take it out, take her hand and say, “Darling…will you marry me?” Think she’s crying now? You ain’t seen nothing yet. This will be a memory she will not soon forget.

Another thing you might want to do is find out from some of her friends if this is something that she’d like to share with them. Some friends know things like this. If so, arrange to have some kind of public gathering. Maybe a party for her and her friends. And then, at the end of the evening, you ask for everybody’s attention and then, with the room dead quiet, you go through the ritual. Your gal will be absolutely speechless.

These are just a couple of the many things you could do to put some zing into your wedding proposal. However, if you want some really killer ideas, check out the link in my signature. It is a review of a great resource with more wedding proposal ideas than you can shake a stick at.

This is one day you want your gal to remember.

Can’t End Your Affair? Read This!

There is probably nothing harder in this world than ending a bad love affair. Well, maybe doing advanced Calculus might be a little harder, but not much. Truth is, there are just no words that you can say that will make ending an affair with somebody go down easier. So looking for some magic solution is going to bring you down a long road filled with disappointment. However, in this article, I’m going to share some tips that might ease the pain just a little.

For one thing, you need to be direct but sympathetic. Nobody likes a jerk and ending an affair with something like, “Hey, go take a hike!” is not going to win you many brownie points. You need to have just a little bit of compassion for the person on the other side. Of course this compassion should also be in proportion to how much of it you were on the receiving end of. Some people are just flat out mean and don’t deserve more than a kick out the door. But we’re talking about letting people go who are essentially good people.

When you sit down with the person, talk about the good times you’ve had. Tell the person what you like about them. Not all breakups have to be all bad. Truth is, no relationship is black and white. There is always some good and bad, even in the ones that stay intact. By pointing out the good times, you help ease the blow a little bit. Then, explain why you feel it’s best to end things. Make the explanation as clear as possible so that there is no mistake. Nobody likes a vague reason for ending things. Answers like, “It’s just not working” do not go over well. Explain WHY it’s not working. The person on the other end deserves that much.

Finally, and this is the most important thing, take responsibility for your part of the breakup. It’s never just one person’s fault. Explain what you did wrong and how that only made the situation worse. Total honesty will go down a long way. It won’t make your partner any happier but it will make it all go down just a little easier.

Stunning eBay Auction Success

Wow - Jim Cockrum has been running an auction on eBay to create a web site for someone and let them keep the profits - the details read

Description (revised)
Hi I'm Jim Cockrum and I want to work with you one on one to make a VERY successful website.

There will be only ONE WINNING BIDDER on this auction.

If you have ANY questions you can email me at Jim@SilentJim.com

Here's the deal:

I'll do 95% of the work (all the stuff you don't want to do) and in the end it will be YOUR website. I'll even promote it and make sales.


I am GUARANTEEING GREAT SALES when we launch...read on for details...


Am I qualified for this project?

* I've personally written and sold one of the all time best selling ebooks ever written. It is without a doubt the all time best selling eBay related ebook (that's a very crowded market) on the top ebook website online. My best guess is that it's sold nearly 80,000 copies in the last 7 years or so....possibly far more (I didn't start tracking it until recently).
* I've recently auctioned off a few hours of my coaching time on eBay for just under $10K. The bidding was furious and all of the winners ( I took on more than one student in that one) walked away happy and are still working with me. I'm a lifelong coach - not a one shot "take the money and run" type of guy.
* I run two very popular membership websites with over 7,000 combined fiercely loyal members.
* I have nearly 100,000 subscribers on mailing list and am considered by thousands to be a top expert on eBay, ebooks, and online entrepreneurship.
* I'm running this auction to once again prove what my time is worth on the open market

There's only a couple of hours left on this auction, so, if you're interested, you'd better hop on over to the eBay auction

Caravan holidays

I haven't done many caravan holidays - but I have very fond memories of two.

The first time that I clearly remember is visiting Dunbar where my in-laws had rented a caravan just off the links golf course. If my memory isn't playing tricks on me, we stayed for a few days - and it was a quick walk from the caravan to the beach. The weather was glorious and the atmosphere lovely and friendly.

The second time I stayed in a caravan was when I met my second husband. A friend and I visited her parents' caravan near Strachur in Argyll. (OK, it was a static van rather than a mobile caravan) and it was very comfortable. We had a great holiday - and when, on the first evening, we went to the Glendale hotel, I met Sandy and that sealed my fate. The small, exlusive park is still there - but, strangely, I haven't been back in over 20 years. I still think fondly of the experience though.

Caravan holidays can be as straightforward or as complicated as you like. I prefer the freedom of choosing when to have breakfast, when to face the world - and love being able to cook simple meals (although I do love to go out for meals as well). Also, dress code can be slightly more relaxed than staying in hotels. The nice thing about owning or hiring a caravan is that there is usually a fairly sociable group of people who will welcome you and help with any problems - or who will leave you to your own devices, if that's what you prefer.

I'm checking out second-hand caravans right now - I'm told that the bargains are being picked up fast as more people choose to tow their holiday home behind them as they cut down on the expenses of vacations.
