Pedestrians Crossing …
Over the past two weeks, we’ve read or heard about the number of pedestrians that’ve been hit in our area. Whether it was on Ballantyne Commons Parkway, Milton Road or on a road in South Carolina (where a man was “relieving himself”!), it’s still a terrifying experience for both victim (if he/she lives through it) and the driver who hit the victim!
Listen — there are certain “rules of the road” that can help drivers miss these pedestrians (like being sure you’re driving at a slower speed through heavily-populated neighborhoods, scanning the road ahead of you where possible for any sign of “walkers” and, especially, watching out for cars parked on the side of the road! You can’t tell if a man or woman [or, worse, a child] will step out between bumpers of two parked cars!) just as there are for pedestrians to help drivers (such as wearing light clothing or jacket [preferably white or bright yellow], staying at least two feet away from the road itself where possible and being aware of any and all traffic coming!).
By following these simple steps (and there are so many others, I’m sure), we can make this a safe and happy holiday for everyone. No one wants to be in the hospital — or worse — at Christmas, right?
IPOD, YOUPOD?
Being a music lover, I can tell ya that one of the most invaluable little gadgets on the market is the Ipod. Now, what this is (as if you didn’t already know!) is a palm-sized, electronic device primarily created to play music.
They’re extremely portable, and can carry more tunes than a CD or cassette. Now, there’s one out called the “Ipod nano” that also can let you enjoy movies and TV shows — and all on a two-inch display!
And there’s one spot where you can buy these at a lower price than most (if not all) retail outlets. It has a fantastic selection and also has a great low-price guarantee as well as nifty gift certificates for those on your list!
Considering the weather (it’s gettin’ colder!), one of the best things about shopping with these folks (I’ll give ya the link to click in just a moment) is that you can do it online and securely!
Quality, price, selection, guarantee — what more could you ask for? Then just click the following link to find the best in ipods. Believe me, it’s worth it!

Al momento de tomar la decisión de comprarle el primer reloj a nuestro hijos uno a veces peca por querer regalarle el mejor de todos, aquellos que cuestan varios euros, pero que no siempre nos aseguran un buen diseño para ellos.
