I Need A Movie, On The Fly : Stream Movies To Your Phone

I'm not tech savvy. In fact, I'm typing this blog with sincere fear in my hear that some techie is going to call me out on the grounds of blasphemy after reading this. What I do know that I have a ton of DVDs. I was just sharing a laugh with a friend today about it. He asked me if I remembered when a "Netflix" night was just that and I didn't mean sex to the audio track of a random movie playing on your DVD player. Meet WonderFox, a DVD Video Converter tool. Whew, that was a mouthful.
I had a boyfriend who was into all things tech and when I saw this product, I imagined him rolling around in printed sheets of code and wearing thick Buddy Holly inspired glasses.
Of course this service has been around for some time, but it's still new to me and it may be new to you as well. There are free trails to download and give it a go. You can rip a DVD and convert it right onto your cell phone. I'm ashamed that this is still very cool to me and this was available ages ago. Sadly, I just rely on the men I'm dating to show me what I can do with my phone. Pity party aside, here is a an example of what you can do:
The cell phone ripping is honestly what appeals to me most, but you can also convert videos to gif's which is likely how so many people have done it and I had not a single clue how it was all done. If you are into filming of any sort and want to place a watermark on a video (instant branding from a marketing standpoint), WonderFox also has that capability among many others.
Still not sold? Don't buy. I'm a firm believer in taking full advantage of a free ride. You can download a free trail for many of the WonderFox products or take a look at their current promotion and see if that tickles your techie fancy. Oh, and if you're stumped be sure to check out the resources page to learn how to perform a variety of functions for several devices.
Remember, anything you try...drop a line and provide a review for other readers so they can hear how well things work (or don't).

The Real Thing *Relationships/Dating*

I love Marvin Gaye. I love how he croons along with Tammi Terrell about having the "Real Thing". If you have followed my blog over the years, you have seen me get separated, divorced, and hit the dating scene. Its been a long road. There was a time that I was dating just to get my feet wet. I just wanted to get into the habit of conversing and entertaining men in a way that I hadn't due to the confines of marriage. I just wanted to be single again. Eventually I came to want more. I wanted to have something...real. I am not a traditional woman. If I didn't have children I would likely never be married and I would be totally fine with living in a separate home from my significant other and connecting when we wanted to connect and maintaining space all other times. However, I have children...and my lifestyle preferences are not a priority. I am more interested in setting an example and foundation for my girls. So here I am, dating with a purpose. I have been on POF,

The Punisher: Relationship Prejudice

When started dating after separation, I did it in phases. The first phase was catch up. I wanted to catch up with every man I had a spark with to explore where it would have went had I not gotten married. Once I realized that these "what if's" were really "don't bother's" I moved on to try to find "the one." After several failed attempts and false starts with "the one" I began making rules. I didn't always know what I liked but I was certain after several failed relationships of what I didnt. However, now that I look back, I realize that plenty of the red flags that made me run were almost always a shared similarity with my ex. If a man said he was interested in anything my ex was interested in, I began to feel uneasy and delve deeper for more "flags". I'll even admit that if a man were from the same country or continent as my ex, I would get turned off. I now know that I was suffering from PTRD (Post Traumatic Re

The Secret Society Of Trump Supporters

I've heard at least a dozen people proclaim their disgust with the success of Donald Trumps Presidential campaign. I'm lying, it's been everywhere. On social media, articles, and conversation you hear plenty people express their disdain at the mere thought of Trump assuming office. Then there are the supporters. There are the people who openly express their support of Trump winning the White House. As time goes on, Trump's position is yet more secured and his supporters are also more secure in showing just how much they love him. It seems now that victory is within their grasp, they can more openly say : I helped make this happen. Those are the cowards. They won't openly defend their candidate but they quietly follow and support him. Those are the people who will say: "well there are some people who support Trump because he says what others won't say." Those people, are talking about themselves. They are far too timid to say what Trump says and he ha
