What's Grandpa Jones Cooking Up?
Nothing but wind here in Idaho right now. The neighbor's cows are flying past my window. Well, no matter! The price of milk is lower than a earthworm's hole.
I'm still doing the cooking around here. My wife retired from cooking 15 years ago when I retired from doing whatever engineers do. She does whip me up some French toast once in a while. I don't like to eat before about 2-3:00 P.M. which she thinks is unhealthy. You know, the Good Breakfast theory. Snakes eat once a month! Look how loonnnnngggg they live.
Do you know anybody that likes liver and onions? Sometimes men do. The only way they can get it is to go out for it. They usually have to call the eatin' joint first to make sure they have it that day.
I think liver is the most vile stuff. In fact, because I've had heart surgery twice and have the aortic valve of a benevolent hog, it is on my forbidden food list.
When I was a boy, I learned to eat liver. It was the only way I could get enough meat. My mother's liver was like shoe leather because she knew you should try to cook it to death, anything to destroy it. But dad liked his liver and onions. My six siblings hated it. But I knew that if I could only learn to eat it, like it or not, I could get enough meat that one day. So, I just started eating it. Ugh!
My friend, Don, runs the local market. He puts outdated stuff in these carts and you can grab things at half price. There are always some good sauces in there good for marinating things. Sauces have expiration dates on them, but don't they just get better with age? You can't hurt noodles either and most of the other stuff in Don's discount carts.
Well, I've been cooking liver and onions with some of those marinates. Even though I'm not allowed liver and onions, I just have to have it about once a year. That is all there is to it!
My wife is normal so she absolutely hates liver. She always says, "I'm not going to eat that stuff!" Well, I cook away and put the liver in front of her and she gobbles it down saying, "That was delicious!"
Well, it isn't delicious. That is not a word for liver. The word is obnoxious.
Why does my wife love my liver and onions? Because I disguise it. The liver itself, still tastes like crap, but she doesn't notice that fact. Her taster is not as good as mine.
Well, got to be moseying along. Got to help the neighbor find his cows!

The Grandpa Jones Kitchen
Hi, Everyone!
All my many millions of blog readers.
Well, maybe not that many.
Have you visited my kitchen where I make all the good original stuff (as I seldom look at cookbooks). My mother taught me to cook when I was very young and I've been cooking ever since, especially since my wife resigned from cooking on my retirement some 15 years ago.
Do you like Stromboli? I made some yesterday and served it to my wife and a restaurant owner and his wife.
I love Stromboli and it is so easy to make.

The Bear Facts
One of the pork barrel projects objected to by Senator McCain is the $4.8 million spent to determine the DNA of Grizzly Bears. The study showed that there are 765 bears in Northwestern Montana. If that was the extent of the study, each bear cost the U.S. tax payers about $6,274.50.
The investigators collected bear hair to determine the DNA. They did that carefully by avoiding the bears all together. In most scientific studies, the "Whose DNA is this?" would have been important. Evidently that would have been dangerous to determine.
The result gave a bear count which made people in Montana happy so that they can shoot the critters that attack range animals. The critters are not endangered.
So, what was the objective of this study other than to give employment to hundreds of bear-hair chasers?

My Experience With Wealthy Affiliate University
Today is my 2-Month anniversary with Wealthy Affiliate University. I had never heard of WAU until the day I joined. Someone on Yahoo send me an email. It sounded interesting so I looked at sight. After being years on the Internet making too little money, I took the WAU bait which was this:
1. The gurus won't really help you that much.
I knew that already. I have big investment in gurus with nothing to show for it.
2. You can make money with what they call Bum Marketing on the WAU campus. That means you spend no money. You write articles and blogs to sell products.
I have been an article writer for many years. The first thing I learned was that i was not using the resource boxes on my articles correctly to produce sales. I contacted Ezineartiticles.com and they changed my source boxes on 462 articles in one fail swoop.
3. They push PPC teaching you how to beat the system.
I've lost my shirt with PPC over the years. Now I have a half dozen campaigns and I'm getting great help from the search engine's service techs. I'm making money rather than losing it.
4. The best thing of all at WAU is the tutoring.
I was given constant attention for two months. I got an email about every day telling me what is was doing wrong and how to do it right. I'm now being weaned, but every email is answered withing 24 hours.
5. The Forums at WAU are fantastic.
I've learned tons of things from the forums. I love to read the success stories. I feel great when a WAU student says he has had his first $100.00, $500.00 or $1000.00 day.
I take part in the forums and I try to welcome new students and give them a hand.
6. Sharing Space
This is great. There you can read tutorials from the students and staff. I have written a half dozen tutorials myself. I learn, I teach, I profit.
7. Every month WAU spreads the wealth, giving $10,000.00 to the students. These little bonuses are given to each student in 10 gold coins worth a dime. We pass the gold coins around. I have about 40 at this writing having given 13 away. Thursday, I will get 10 more free coins to give away. It's fun to share. When you have an excess of $10.00 you get the money with your monthly affiliate commissions.
You can't imagine how great it is to deal with Carson and Kyle at WAU and the other members. There is so much to learn every day. I find myself spending a lot of time there just learning and chatting with other students.
8. The best of all is the 8-week study course. When I looked at the resources for marketing, etc, and the lesson content, and the tutorials I knew that I would be at WAU for the long haul. I joined for a full year just to make sure I did stay. That was the best thing I ever did, not to save the $10.00 a month from the $39.00 monthly tuition, but to makes sure that this time I would not fail.
I have finished the 8-week Course but I still go back and study the lessons and I repeat many of the tutorials to get my old ways out of my head so that I can make money.
I am at last making some money on the Internet. Carson said that I will be making a full time income next year at this time.
It's not so much that I need money now, but I'm retired on a fixed income. I know what inflation does over the years. I have to look to my future even though I am 76 years old. Right now, I'm hesitant to drive any long distance because of the cost of fuel.
So, I'm saying this: If you want to learn how to make money on the Internet, there is only one place to go. Read my free PDF at my website

Internet Marketing Steps: Make More Money Online
In this article I listed 20 Steps to Internet Marketing. The link is:
http://ezinearticles.com/?Internet-Marketing-Steps---Make-More-Money-Online&id=1339467
Gurus are simply Internet marketers. If you stay away from them, at least at first, you can make money on the Internet without going broke. Once you are a guru yourself, you can hobnob with them and share more wealth.
There are a number of ways to drive traffic to your site at zero cost to you. So, you need to find a niche market with hungry buyers. Then you find a product to put between them.
That's all there is to it.
If you go to my website you will learn about Wealthy Affiliate University where you will learn all the tricks the gurus know and then some: http:www.InternetBusinessToolCenter.com
At my site, you can also download FREE The 20 Steps to Internet Marketing PDF which has much more information than this article has.

Getting Over the PPC Hump
There is a learning period with PPC. You can go broke before you get started if you are not careful. If you have spend as much as you would have earned on a single sale and you have no sales, it's time to pause that campaign until you can improve it or start a different campaign that is more promising.
Can You Draw This?
I'm just finishing my 3-year course at Art Instruction Schools. It took me about a year and a half but I should have taken more time. I'm just too old too take longer. My review of he school, the fantastic course outlines, and those wonderful artist instructors. Well, if you want to learn to draw, this is the place.
The Recession and Your Dog and Cat
The critters are getting hurt in this recession. Pet food and care can be expensive. Some folks prefer to eat and buy gasoline rather than feed or care for a pet.
