Divorce Lawyer for Men


 In my recent divorce I got representation that was from a firm specializing in MEN.  I got very level-headed advice and there is a big difference between him and my wife’s attorney who is much more emotional.  Hey Fellas, You may or may not know the lock that woman have had in family courts for decades.  Cordell and Cordell change that!
They did an outstanding job representing me and protecting my interests. And it was a Gal doing it.  I am stoked that my kids will have me as a real dad with read custody.   She consistently offered me the personal attention  I am truly impressed with her legal knowledge, attention to detail, and the ability to address complex situations quickly. Cordell & Cordell is a fantastic law firm. Thanks again for the great service!" 
You blog readers remember my sad saga of divorce...there have been THREE in my past.  I've told you all the Gorey details before.  Now I am happy to be finished with my last one and can really see the difference in the attitude of this firm that I am telling you about. Read their book and watch their video.  You will see what I am talking about here.

Don't Visit Hawaii too Often...or Else!

Yes, I failed to take my own advise and after a half dozen trips, starting in Oahu, I wound up buying an inexpensive Condo thru a good real estate brooker, moving here and marrying a local Asian gal! Oy vey, would mother be mad. But I am happy. Happier than I have ever been.

I visited all the islands at least once. Honolulu is my favorite city. I have all the resources and facilities of the main land but I am in the middle of a pacific paradise. The beach is five blocks away, Waikiki is a short bus ride. AND THE WEATHER IS BEAUTIFUL ALL YEAR AROUND.

Using a real estate brooker is the only way to go because Island life is different in many ways. Some properties (including mine, smile) are what they call lease hold and this is good because it brings the price down. It is bad because you have only a 99 year period to have the property. so it has less value for my children. Well they are richer than I already! Also, not all finacing is available with lease holds. There are also Hawaiian lands for part Hawaii and only. My wife qualifies! When we swell this condo, we'll move on to a nice house away from the busy tourist areas. IMHO you need a professional to explain the details and to be sure you are getting what you expect.

See you on the beach.

Experience Become.com

OH MY Gosh... I can't believe the shopping experience at www.become.com.  Yes it is true. We went to Santa Fe NM and saw the greatest things and I just had to have some things like it. But how to afford it. Well Become lets us become the people we wanted to be. Sectional Couches are the main thing that I missed from my upbringing in a big suburban home in MA. Just look at the ones on display from the become site. We got ours there and it was so easy and absolutely satisfying. Now we can have two conversation pits going at once or just one big one at our parties. When we have friends over, Hubby can talk with his buddy and I can focus on MY friend. Candice Olson furniture is really great.

Also at Become we got the greatest Zebra wall paper. It makes me drool!!!!!! And it was affordable. Really easy on our budget. The images on this paper keep me occupied better than my favorite TV shows like American idol, AFV and different court shows. I spend much time relaxing and imagining the most interesting things sitting there in the Living room with our new the zebra print.

You know hubby does business at home sometimes...I hate this but he does bring home the bacon so to speak. And I love him. SOOOOO at become.com we found the perfect lift top coffee table to go in this great new living room. It has a LIFT TOP which allows him to keep his forms for customers at hand.

We can be entertaining and if someone likes his "pitch" he can whip out the form and get the signature with leaving the room.....I LOVE IT! Please write to me if you have similar or dissimilar experiences. For me, till I learn better, I will do my shopping at Become as it has really help us to Become who we are and wanted to be all along.

Beep your cost down

I am very into doing funny things:  I went to the Los  Angeles auto repair and parts shop and got a "BACK - UP BEEPER" .   This was the same place that sold me the head gasket for my Honda civic but that is another story.   Well, I figured out which wire under the back of the car ran to the back up lights and cut into that circuit for the beeper.  Now when I go into reverse in a crowed parking lot, I feel safer.  It is less likely that I bump someone!  


I found this place from repairpal.com. It is a free site that I use to check estimates from repair places.  There is an iphone app too so I can get help easily in a new place.  It is an independent unbiased opinion from professionals as to what a repair should cost.  It is simple enough to use that my grandmother can do it.  Next time you here a Honda civic beeping like a truck, wave, its me! smile.

5out of 5
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Breathable, Good Arch Support, Pronation Control, Cushions Impact, Stylish
Describe Yourself: Athletic, Stylish, Practical, Comfort-oriented

First day, I felt like I was walking on my bed. It was so comfortable. After a week, my heel aches but I have read that it was just some normal muscle reactions. After 2 weeks and onwards, I am getting used to it. I used it at work, gym and shopping.
I intend to use it on our trip to alaska this summer.
