I have been working on a couple sites the past couple of days.
One I have owned for a little while now - more on that one later- and the other was a joint venture with Greg Mathews.
The one with Greg is probably one of the best ideas I have heard in a long while. He approached me with the idea of taking orders and mailing out Valentine Cards. The concept behind the site is pretty simple really. We are providing a venue for people to have cards sent in total anonymity.
We will write and mail out a REAL Valentines card for you making sure the ’someone special’ has no idea who it is from, they will not be able to recognize the writing, and the chances are the postal stamp will not give any clues away either.
These are real cards, not eCards. They are not the cheap dollar store cards either. The cards are valued along those you would find at Hallmark or other fine card stores.
On MysteryValentineCards.com, we take the name and address and a personal message from the user then we hand write the message on a card and mail it to the recipient prior to Valentines day. There is no way for the recipient to recognize the writing etc so they will have no idea who has sent the card.
We also offer the chance to put your real name on the card for those who are unable to get to the card store on their own. This is perfect for those overseas who may not have access to a card store.
Give it a look and perhaps send a card to someone today!

As you may recall, my son broke his Nintendo DS.
It was a true accident. He was always very careful with it.
So I went online and bought a new case for it. It was sweeeet! Crystal clear with clear buttons and even a clear stylus.
My buddy at work offered to swap it out for me. He has all the tools and is a much more patient guy than myself. I told him to have a go, and if it did not work not to worry cause my wife and I had already written the game off as trashed.
The operation was pretty delicate. He had to remove all of the inside components and transplant them into the new case.
He was about 3/4 of the way finished and the unthinkable happened. The ribbon for the upper screen tore. He felt horrible. Online he went… He ordered a new screen and waited patiently.
It arrived and he got back to work. RUT ROH RAGGY! the speakers need soldered. My buddy is on top of this too. He knows a guy 
= Speakers soldered and time to test. Test failed 
Online we go to check diagnostics… try this… to that… to no avail.
I applaud my buddy for his patience, and he and I are not done trying, but the wife and I went out and bought a “new to our son” used one cause he got some new games over Christmas.
