Friday Link Sharing #7

It’s Friday morning and that can only mean one thing.  It’s time to share a link!!  Ok, it can mean other things, but your relationship with cod and cod related products is yours and yours alone…

Today’s link is about finance.  I know you are all now salivating in anticipation!!  If you want to learn more, something I love to do, check out http://www.investopedia.com/.  I find the site to be well structured and informative.  However, it does have quite a bit of US based information and that is not always the same as Canada (If you know of any good Canadian sites, send them along!).  You can also read about the rumour that Alphabet, Google’s parent company, should buy Verizon.

As a bonus, here is Graham Norton’s YouTube Channel.  He is one of my favourite talk show hosts and I love the British spin on the interviews.  🙂

Have a great weekend ahead.

It’s Friday morning and that can only mean one thing.  It’s time to share a link!!  Ok, it can mean other things, but I really don’t think the ceiling fan was engineered to support that kind of weight…

Have you ever felt overwhelmed with work but didn’t know how to respond professionally?  We all know that burnt out people do much less work than those who have reasonable demands on their time, but we don’t always have the appropriate words to express our feelings and make sure we are doing our part in managing our own workload.  Mashable has some suggestions for us all: http://mashable.com/2015/01/29/drowning-in-work/?utm_cid=mash-com-fb-main-link?#rbDa_ygPO5qO

Have a great Friday and may your day be TIFU free (Ah, Internet lingo, how I love thee).

Cheers to a great weekend ahead!

It’s Friday and that can only mean one thing.  It’s time to share a link!!  Well, it can mean other things, but wishing for it won’t make it so.  Get out there and do it!

This week’s link gives you lots to watch during your time off with the top 25 holiday movies, as rated by Rotten Tomatoes.  http://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/guide/best-christmas-movies/    Yes, Die Hard IS a holiday movie and anyone who thinks different is wrong!

As a bonus, watch this awesome video to get you in the spirit of the season.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTLAx3VDX7g

Have a great weekend and holiday season!!  May the force be with you and your family.

Friday Link Sharing – #1

It’s Friday and that can only mean one thing.  It’s time to share a link!!  Well, it can mean other things, but sometimes bacon isn’t the answer.  Rarely, I admit, but sometimes…

 

This week’s link was going to be something completely different, but a typo in an earlier email gave me some inspiration.  This is a TED talk I watched with the family last night:  https://www.ted.com/talks/al_seckel_says_our_brains_are_mis_wired?language=en  – Our brains are interpretive wonders, but, as Plato said, our senses deceive us.  There are lots of cool things to learn at Mind Hacks as well.  My daughter recently started to get interested in these as she showed me how to find our blind spot.  Very cool.

As a bonus, check out Amazon.ca’s holiday deals.  There are new ones every day and Christmas is only TWO WEEKS away!  With the lack of snow, getting in to the spirit has been more challenging.

Have a great weekend!!
