Something New and it is a Secret - Sort Of

Written by Jack on February 17, 2008 – 6:18 pm

OK I have my staff at Franklin Spirko - My Internet Marketing Firm - working on a new project that we are calling ZonDez. So just what is a ZonDez well for now it is a secret and as this blog is really not very popular yet I am just putting out a link to get the new domain indexed.

That said, if you want to know more there is some basic text information a that link above and additionally you can opt into a notification list there. Do so and we will tell you more about just what the heck this ZonDez thing is all about as it becomes available.

Video of My Jon Boat Modification Project

Written by Jack on February 5, 2008 – 5:53 pm

Back in November I blogged about my Jon Boat Modification Project and was close to having the web page about it just about done.  I now have it finished (mostly one day I am going to make that site look good) and you can read the entire writing up on my Jon Boat Modifications now if you like.  One cool thing I have now added though is a Jon Boat Modifications Video that is on Youtube.  You can also view it below but if you have a moment please go by YouTube Directly and rate my video.

The music on the video is as follows,

Southern Cross - Jimmy Buffett’s Version

Born Country - by Alabama

It’s 5 O’clock Somewhere  - by Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett

My February 1st Weight Loss Report

Written by Jack on February 1, 2008 – 9:16 pm

On January 1st I blogged about the fact that I was cutting back on eating and would be loosing 52 pounds in 5 months.  That will need to be just over 10 pounds a month to work out to hitting 210 as my target weight from my starting weight of 262.  I also mentioned that Neil Franklin had bet me 200 dollars that I would fail.  Today is my first update and despite Neil attempting to sabatoge me at every opportunity I have done quite well.  The results,

  • Starting Weight - 262
  • Feburary 1st Weight - 244
  • Total weight loss in Month one - 18 Pounds

So what have I been doing different?  Not much so far just the following…

  • Light vs. heavy beer
  • Salads and soups for most lunches (Campbles Healthy Choice is great)
  • No big portions of bread, potatoes, rice or other starches
  • No candy, sugar, etc
  • I have been drinking fruit smoothies for breakfast about 3-5 days a week
  • Dinner has been what ever I want other then the exceptions mentioned above

So thus far I am ahead of the game yet the first month is always easiest, which is why I did not start exercising yet.  That starts today from Feb 1 -Feb 14 I will do 10 minutes once a day on my Elliptical Trainer then from Feb 15 - Feb 28 I will do 10 minutes twice a day and I am adding some basic supliments.  I will report in on March 1 with results and may comment on Neil’s treachery during the month of February.

All I know so far is pants I had custom fit for a meeting I had in November with Trump University will now fall completely off if I don’t have a belt on.  I must say that feels pretty good.

Cover your ASSets!

Written by Jack on January 29, 2008 – 9:41 pm

If you have worked hard for the thing you have I can not recommend the new Donald Trump book Asset Protection highly enough.  This is no “do it yourself” manual you will need to use attorneys and accounts etc. to do a lot of the things in this book but it will help you learn what to do, how to do it right and of course how to do it for less.

Now would be the time to buy it as well because Trump U is pulling out all the stops to make this book a hit and push it up the Amazon Charts.  Check out this offer,

Buy Asset Protection 101 and You also Get

  • 3  J.J. Childers E-Books-valued at $19.95 each, these 3 e-books provide you with even more information about protecting your business and wealth, saving on taxes, and enjoying a stress-free retirement.
  • 5 Special Reports-over 100 pages of extra material to help you build your wealth structure (worth $150!).
  • The Top 50 Most Overlooked Tax Deductions-this gift alone could save you thousands of dollars when April comes around again!
  • J.J.’s Asset Protection Worksheet-the master’s tool to show you where you may be vulnerable to lawsuits and how you can minimize your tax burden.
  • Asset Video - addressing specific asset protection issues, which you can view on your computer
  • 20% off - The registration fee for Trump University’s Wealth Preservation: Asset Protection Retreat featuring instructor J.J. Childers.

By the way there are still more bonuses!  To learn more visit the Asset Protection Special Offer at Trump University.  I am not sure how long they will be running this offer but if I were you I would act now.  I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy of this book from Josef Katz and I can tell you I have already put some of these concepts into practice and have my attorney working on more of it for me.

Setting up a Wordpress Blog in 30 Seconds flat

Written by Jack on January 15, 2008 – 7:48 pm

Yep really now it still will take some time to install cool plug ins, customize your themes and all I am just talking about going from having no blog to having a blog up running and ready to go and doing it on a hosted domain.  I loathe subdomain blogs like those at yourblog.wordpress.com and figure if you can’t afford a domain name and some cheap hosting you really need to solve some other problems.

Anyway check it out all you need is cPanel based hosting with Fantastico included, then follow this video to a 30 second WordPress install then get to it and start blogging.
