How to Learn French

I watched a lot of infomercials this weekend. I admit it! It was very relaxing for some reason, though I just couldn’t look at that gt express after reading the bad reviews in amazon about the coating coming off very quickly!

I have been interested in the “how to learn french” teaching aids for hopefully a trip next summer to france. This summer is too late. Anyway there was something I saw on tv but I fell asleep during it (okay what can I say). However, there is a free course I found online via email which is here: How to Learn French

I will try that first and if I like it there is a more involved product. What looks good about this is that it takes less than 8 weeks, there’s a focus on restaurant ordering which I like and you can make it slow so you’re not lost. I’m a pragmatist so I like that there is a lot about asking for directions, hotel and travel dialogues and practical areas. This is what I’ll be using it for so why would I want to learn like 45 animal names etc? Also since I’m fast foods oriented I like that it’s mp3 and instantly downloadable.

When I went to school at McGill for a year it was really good but my boyfriend spoke too fast and I couldn’t get it and since he spoke perfect english, we gave up on french. Anyway this is the free course link:

I think if I want to return it, it’s easier than dealing with shipping for an infomercial product right now since I don’t have time to run to PO. Au Revoir.

TV Articles – Young and Restless, Wife Swap , Seinfeld, Friends

My favorite shows are young and restless, wife swap, seinfeld, people’s court and friends. I find as a therapist that wife swap really puts you in a situation where you have to change or else meltdown! I do think they find extreme couples though to make the sure at it’s most intense level. The young and the restless seems to have a lot of romantic situations but I like the corporate ones as well and the dilemmas they discuss. There are some articles here on these programs:

What’s interesting is a combination of humor, compassion and intelligence and I think these shows all have that quality.

Luggage and Other Infomercials

Is it just me or do the infomercials have a true knack for getting you to take out your credit card? I don’t know if I’m a sucker for them or if you are more vulnerable in the middle of the night! I ordered some luggage from an infomercial and though I was happy with it, I found it cheaper online a week later. This is because I think some people will buy things and then decide it’s not for the and resell them. I found some nice infomercial luggage items here for kids so it’s worth looking around. Also it is easier to wear sneakers I find going through airport security and why wear a belt since you just have to take it off anyway! You can put a nice ribbon or scarf with a knot on your luggage so you can quickly identify it on the luggage carousel rack too.

Gingivitis Symptom and Sonicare Elite Tooth Brush

Well I am travelling and definitely find that as my sonicare elite tooth brush has lost it’s charge more and more and rotates slower that the gingivitis symptom I have- the back teeth bleed a bit has returned. It really is interesting to me that the rotation speed of the sonic care is very important and it’s good to keep this baby charged! I didn’t really think it was a factor but it must be. My dentist told me I need to stimulate my gums a lot and I think when it rotates slowly that is just not right for my gingivitis issues.

Sonicare Tooth Brush Information

The weird thing is that I am afraid to bring the charger with me when I travel because I don’t want to leave it anywhere but I just talked to someone on the plane the other day who left her cell phone charger in a hotel room so I guess this is a common problem.

Sonicare Tooth Brush – Sonicare Charger

I wanted to mention something I observed that might be important. In my condo the plug in my bathroom only has one jack (the other one somehow won’t work) so I have at times roated plugging in the sonicare tooth brush with the sonicare charger and using the plug to recharge my cell phone. Anyway, I didn’t charge the sonicare tooth brush for 10 days or so and it worked , but had slowed down in speed and I had more bleeding . So I think it’s important to charge it and get the max rotations you can from the  sonicare charger.

Sonicare Tooth Brush Review

Anyway you can read more at above link but I did want to mention that it made a difference in my gum bleeding. Another thing is that the picks I got from my dentist were similar to the rotadent ones and I can’t find them at drug stores. The ones at drug stores seem very thin.

Sonic Care Elite Commercial and Dental Checkup

I read something on the net that said that using the sonic care elite toothbrush could increase your pockets. Well, I had a dental checkup and he said that made no sense, so I wanted to mention it. I actually learned about this product from a tv commercial (I don’t remember if it was an infomercial or a short one). I liked that it was fun to use but also I was having a lot of bleeding and needed something. My dentist also gives out these little picks that I think are good too.

I talk a bit about the floss I use and what I notice about about the speed when I brush with it over here:

Review of Sonic Care Electric Toothbrush

Oh I did have a weird experience last time at the dentist, I tried to fill the water cup myself when they left the room for a chart and I ended up not being able to turn the water off- it was supposed to be automatic , but it wasn’t. Anyway, it reminded me of the Seinfeld episode when he was playing with the dental equipment and I realized it’s better to just stay still in there!

Carmen and Kevin Fischer

I can’t believe they are going to frame Kevin Fisher for Carmen’s death.  The show somehow seems to be full of murder mysteries lately and very little romance (except for Amber and Kane!). I wonder if the Young and Restless will bring Jenna back and exonerate Kevin. I don’t think Colleen will die but I bet she’ll be brain injured or have a memory problem for a while! Is it just me or will the Fishers not ever get a break?

Young and Restless – Who Killed Carmen?

Hey I see on cover at supermarket they will reveal Carmen’s killer this week! I wonder who. They are really playing up it’s Adrian. Also I wonder if Sheila REALLY is dead and what is going on with Jenna’s disappearance. I still think this soap “Young and Restless” is done so masterfully, keeping up with the times in terms of expressions, jokes, fashions etc. Even references to Sex and the City is funny. I wonder what happened to Sylvia Browne? She hasn’t been on young and the restless lately. But you can get a free reading online here  .

Tv Psychics

It seems that a lot of the tv psychic shows have been taken off the air. Does anyone know why? What is interesting is that recently the Young and the Restless has had Sylvia Browne on and she is helping Catherine learn more about those baby flashbacks she was having. She gave her some clues which Amber ended up investigating . But what happened to those 1/2 an hour tv shows with psychics they used to have during the day?

There is a site that will give you a free psychic reading. So you can visit there and take advantage of that offer.

Satellite Tv on Your Computer

One thing I’ve been reading about is that though many of the satellite tv on computer software programs are one-time fees, some are recurring ones. So check that out before you order.  Advertisors can be quite clever.

In fact I think it’s interesting they put supernanny right after wife swap as those seeking discipline for their kids would watch both consecutively.
