Toys For The Basement
As Christmas nears, we are starting to figure out what we should get for our newly remodeled basement. We think Santa may bring Will a train table for down there, since Madison has a nice wooden train and track, and we really have no place for the kids to play with it. That being said, daddy would love to get a pool table for down there. We actually know exactly where we would put it. Once the main things is that the pool table felt would definitely have to match the rest of the basement. I think I would go with a basic blue like Border Billards has. Having played in many pool halls, I have learned that it is defintely important to have good quality felt on your table, since there is definitely a lot of wear and tear (literally) involved. When the felt starts wearing out, it definitely effects your game. Of course, if I do let Bill get a pool table there will definitely be some extra that will have to bought like pool cues, pool cue chalk, pool table covers, pool balls, etc.
Any other suggestions for the basement? I personally would love a dart board too, but I really don’t want to put holes in my new walls!
Calling all Canadian Coke Fans!
I know I have a few readers from Canada, so when I saw this contest I was excited (even though I was bummed that I can’t enter because I am in the US!). Would you like to Win a trip with iCoke.ca? The trip in question is for 4 to Atlanta, Georgia. You can also win gift certificates to Best Buy and Cineplex Odeon! This contest is to celebrate John Pemberton (that’s the guy who invented Coca-Cola!). So what’s the catch? You need 500 iCoke coins to enter. Now, if you are drinking Coke anyway, this isn’t a problem because for a limited time, you are able to get 1,000 Coins from PINs found on specially-marked 591mL bottles of Coca-Cola® products. PINs to get coins can also be found under the cap of all specially marked 591mL and 2L Coca-Cola® and Coke ZeroTM products. Each PIN is worth 500 iCoke Coins. If you don’t win the trip, they even have a contest on the site that you can design your own Coke bottle (I know what I am doing for the rest of the day!). If your bottle gets voted on the most, you could be the featured bottle on the site for the week! Either way, start buying Coke products and get yourself entered into this contest!
