So You Don’t Have to Wonder How your Order Adds Up

When we fetch my hubby at Eastwood we always wait for him at KFC. That’s the closest fastfood  from his office that Z likes to eat from. I was already familiar with that KFC branch there but last time I visited I was surprised to see this in front of me.

You know how it was when you’re at the cashier ordering your food and the crew behind the counter starts pressing  down some keys? I always wonder what she types or if she was typing the right order. Now I don’t have to wonder anymore because they have installed an LCD in front of the customer while they are ordering. I was able to verify that my order was correct and I can check if they have added it right. I’m really impressed they’ve upgraded their equipment even their receipt printer to make the receipt more understandable and readable. These little things I’m sure their customers will appreciate and will feel more valued. I hope other fast food chains follow suit. I think they are the first ones that did this but I’m not in the position to say because we don’t get to eat out often. Have you seen this installed in other fast food outlets?

Bracing for the Hot Summer

I’m always watching the news and they keep on talking about El Nino. They said it’s going to be a long drought this summer which would affect all of us. Since there is already a shortage of water they have started rationing the water. The city of Paranaque has already noticed the decrease of water flowing in their faucets. Pretty soon they are also going to start rationing electricity. I’m dreading both because we’re on the third floor so we’ll definitely the first one to be affected once they started rationing water. As of electricity, I work at home and if electricity becomes scarce then my work would be affected.
Anyway, I was researching about electricity when something caught my eye. I haven’t heard about electric cigarettes until now. The thing that I hate when I see someone smoking is the smoke and the bad odor. Electric cigarettes remove those messes plus the stain of nicotine on the teeth. I hope they use that instead especially when they’re out in public places.

Farmville’s New Unwither Ring

I’m not a shopaholic. If you ask me point blank what I want to splurge on I would have a hard time answering you. It’s not that I don’t need anything – I could sure use some new clothes now that I think about it, or a laptop that I can give to my mom – but there’s nothing that I really really want to buy that occupies my thoughts late at night. That was me until I opened my Farmville a few days ago and found this.

That’s the new Farmvile Unwither Ring. You heard it right, unwither = no withering. Your crops will never wither – EVER! Isn’t that amazing?! I tried to buy it but Farmville told me I don’t have enough cash. I got confused because I already have 200,000 farmville cash in my bank and it said I only need 200 Farm Cash. So when I researched further I found out that 250 Farm Cash is equivalent to a whopping $40.00! Waa! Isn’t that a tad too expensive for something that’s not even real?

I don’t know why I can’t get it out of my mind though. My farm is so small that it only takes 2 minutes to harvest, plow, and plant all of my crops. It won’t really benefit me the way it would for those players who have “acres” of farmville land that they tend to every day. But something inside me tells me I want it. I have the money in my paypal and I can buy it whenever I want and I almost did. Thank goodness I stopped myself in time. So this post is my goodbye post to the Unwither Ring. You’re really cool but I’m not buying! I’d rather put my money to good use.

So excuse me while I go look for some term life insurance quotes now. I’m embarrassed to say that we don’t have term life insurance which is important and I’m here looking to purchase this virtual item. Term life insurance is really not as expensive but it’s a surprise so many people don’t have it for their families. They spend on gadgets and toys – things that are wants but not on needs. Yes, sometimes I’m one of those people. I must really start prioritizing what we need for our family and not want we want.

Facebook was Outranked with its Own Keyword

This is so hilarious I thought I was going to die laughing. For some background info, Facebook is indeed the most popular website with a Page Rank of 9 which I can only dream of. I thought nobody can outrank Facebook with that outrageous PR and with its own keywords at that but I was totally wrong. Miracles do happen (or Google makes mistakes too) and this week a social media blog called Read Write Web (which has a not so bad Page Rank of 8), outranked Facebook with the keywords “Facebook Login” when they published a post entitled, “Facebook Wants to Be Your One True Login.”

That means if you typed in the words “Facebook Login” at Google a couple of days ago the number one result would be the one I encircled in the picture. That screenshot was just made today so we all know that Google has caught on and already righted their wrong.

Since 99% of the people who uses Google always click on the first link and nothing else people started going in droves on the Read Write and Web site thinking it was the Facebook Login page. And since Facebook just recently changed it’s homepage they actually thought (as in really really thought so) that the wrong website was the new Facebook. The people just kept on coming the Read Write and Web article on Facebook leaving really frustated comments that they finally inserted this paragraph in their original post:

Where’s the funny part?  I copied some of the comments left by the angry and frustrated people who “just wanted to login please” below so you can see them for yourself. Do read on. I’m sure these would please you like the best acne remedies you can find in the market.
