Amazing news!

Google has now produced Google Voice which is like Skype when it comes to calling but nothing like it because you can call anywhere in the U.S and Canada for free to any landline and mobile phone with Google Voice! International calls are however not free.  I tried it a few moments ago and I must say I loved it!

You must have a Google Account to use this feature.

I called my mom and then I called my friend in South Dakota. Amazing! A Pop-Up window shows at the bottom of your screen similar to the video and regular chat windows and presto a dial pad is shown and you just have to enter the number either by pressing the numbers with your mouse or by typing them in with your keyboard.  The quality was amazing! And best part is that it does not cost you a single penny.

So you have Gmail–well the “Call Phone” is directly linked with all your contacts in your address book for emails! All your calls are kept in a history folder by clicking on the little mini clock shown in the pop-up or by viewing your called credits for international calls. A sweet deal in case you can’t find your cell phone!

I am sooo excited about this feature because I was so worried about paying to use Skype for calls now, but all I have to do now is dial U.S. and Canadian numbers on my laptop and start talking to my computer. Can I say once more– FREE! Oh the magic in the computer world!

“Choice words”

I absolutely love that Whoopi Goldberg is on The View. Why? Because she sticks to her guns no matter what and what she said to Michaele Salahi is completely alright. Praise Whoopi! The Salahi Couple should not have lied to White House security and just went to the dinner. What complete idiots. I don’t believe they were invited. Honest people would have proper evidence and not plead the 5th if they think they were guilty. What a bunch of bologna Michaele is bringing to the media. She is a Real Desperate Housewife hands down! The erks the Hell out of me, because pompous attitudes and glamorous dumb women should not be on TV.

Go Whoopi for being real and not taking crap from anyone. And hot head Mr. Salahi needs to get out of Whoopi’s face with that damn cellphone. WOW. This angers me that people have to be so little, and I don’t give a rat’s ass if Whoopi used choice words. Good for her! Michaele should not have to lie the dumb bitch  That’s my choice words for her.

A fire just rekindled itself and now it is burning so brightly as I wait for the third book of The Hunger Games trilogy, Mockingjay to come out August 24th.

I am absolutely thrilled about these books that Suzanne Collins so delicately weaved together! Her writing takes you on a journey of one girl and one boy each from 12 districts into mayhem and fright of The Hunger Games where survival, intellect, and maybe some love keeps your heart, mind, and soul wanting to read more and more. I recently read the two books this past spring and really could not put them down. I avoided eating and doing homework until I got into another chapter of complete rebellion and conformity.

The basis of the trilogy is so moving that the first book The Hunger Games is being filmed into a movie by Lionsgate! Now, as a blooming TV artist, I absolutely hands down adore the thought and emotion of auditioning for this movie. Just auditioning would be a honor, because the books make me feel the same way as did reading the Harry Potter books and I have no problem “dying” on set because I can say I died for my district. Oh the thrill I am getting just writing this post.

Gosh, 20,000 or so people on Facebook.com likes The Hunger Games! Amazing! Collins truly created a masterpiece by writing these books and I raise my glass to all the characters that she has brought to life.

Katniss-The Girl who dazzled ignorant capital residents by her flaming beauty
Peeta- The boy who simply shared some bread
Gale- The strong one
Rue- One of my favorite characters. The youngest, but the loudest!
Cinna- Creativity runs through him like fire blazes through brush
Effie- On point and on time.
Haymitch- Don’t let his grouchiness fool you.
Primrose- Katniss’ little sister, healing hands just like their mom

These characters all have that special role in the heroine’s life and Collins depicted human interaction so vividly, I was bound to cry, laugh, and feel pain for every step that Katniss took in this legendary war between rebellion and conformity.

Katniss Everdeen ignites a flame that will send sparks flying in all directions as she defies the odds against her.

Will this tale of pure defiance lead her astray and her family in danger? Or will it change the course of capital history as we know it?
