The Coin Project Day 184: It’s Alive!

January 12, 2012

It’s been a while since I updated this blog and it’s been even longer since I updated the coin project. The main reason for the lack of updates when it comes to the coin project is that I just haven’t found any coins and the reason why I haven’t made any other updates is due to the fact that I am extremely lazy (at least my self awareness is intact).

Comedy Gold from Times of Malta

October 27, 2011

It’s been a while since I say a truly funny comment on Times of Malta but when I visited their website yesterday I found this article about a 15-year old boy getting caught driving a car while speaking on the phone. The police also found two shotguns in the car after they had stopped him.

My Wife Just Landed Me Some Free Coffee

September 30, 2011

I love the fact that I have a wife that bakes because not only do I get to eat all the goodies but it also comes in handy when there are competitions of some sort. A couple of days ago Nescafé ran a competition on their Facebook page for the Dolce Gusto Coffee machine which she entered by submitting a picture of a Black Rose Cocktail made with Espresso Intenso.

Video of the Day: What Happens Next?

September 30, 2011

This is a pretty old video of a gullible Obama supporter. I’m not saying she is gullible because she supports and believes in Obama over the other guys but rather because she bought all the stuff that was said before the election and made her own little interpretations of what was promised.

How to Make Money as A Blogger

September 27, 2011

It might seems a bit ironic that I am writing a post on how to make money as a blogger when the only money my blog is making is what I find in the street during my Coin Project. The reason I have this blog isn’t to make money from it though but it’s rather a way to do SEO experiments and to vent from time to time.

September 26, 2011

Working from home is great, I love it, but there are days when it’s nice to be able to change up the working environment (and enjoy some free air conditioning).

The Coin Project Day 66: Long Overdue Update

September 26, 2011

The reason why I haven’t updated this project for a long time is that I just haven’t found many coins to write about. Since the last update I have only managed to stumble across a single cent which isn’t much to write home about. But since that’s all I have found lately I will have to write about that anyway so that all my frequent readers know what’s going on with this project.
