For years our family has used Farmers insurance. Our Farmers Agent here in Pearland, TX is a great guy, but with the recent rate increases I was left with no other choice but to start price shopping.

I was thinking recently about the Adblock plus plugin for the FireFox browser. Then I came to realize that Microsoft with Internet Explorer could easily destroy google's Number1 revenue generator and bankrupt them if they wanted to.

Even though real estate in Houston tends to be on the cheap side.
There are a few neighborhoods that are turning into the Texas version
of Malibu. Spring Branch and Spring Valley off I-10 are two of these
areas. I was driving through there the other day, and I was amazed by
how these communities were being transformed. Land values in the
area alone will go for $350K and up. Some people are just fixing up
the original 1950's homes, others are ripping them down and building
custom million dollar estates. I noticed this
beautiful Spring Valley home for sale
on the corner of
Bingle and Westview currently for sale. What is great about the homes
in Spring Valley is the high number of million dollar homes. I give it
5 years before you won't be able to get a home in this area for under a
million dollars. At $407K this one is a steal. You have to see all
the photos
to appreciate it.

For years my wife and I have enjoyed Oishii Japanese Restraunt. The sushi was always fresh, and the service was always great. One other thing kept us coming back. Their prices are the cheapest in houston. My favorite is their Happy hour 3PM - 7PM weekdays. Buy one get one free on several rolls including spicy salmon. Normally you get 6 pieces for $4.00. During happy hour you get 12 pieces for $4.00. My wife and I could walk in and walk out stuffed with sushi, for under $20 including Tip. Click the read link to see where its at.

I first started making websites using frontpage, then I started using dreamweaver, and life was good. This was back in the days when dreamweaver was run by macromedia. Back when Dreamweaver was in version 4.0 ( way back ). Well on the latest release of CS4 I guess Adobe decided that it was better to not provide any support for .NET guys like myself than to provide support for older ASP.NET 1.1 components. I recently updated to CS4 only to discover this after the fact. To say the lease it was not a good day.

With the huge disappointment of Windows Vista. Microsoft needs to make waves with the highly anticipated Windows 7 OS. There have been several rumors, some of which could have a huge impact on sales for hardware manufacturers. Keep in mind there are just rumors. But if true Microsoft may been a good company to invest come June 2009.
