Zak Bagans, the Twitter extraordinaire
I’m posting a quick mention about Zak Bagans simply because I think his tweets are hilarious. You may know him as the head honcho on Travel Channel’s “Ghost Adventures.” I’m addicted to the show, and Zak is a hottie in the Las Vegas-native, buff sort-of-way. Don’t ask me why I’m following him on Twitter. Anyway,…

My blog has a conflicting identity
I can’t decide what I want this website to be. Some days, I pass along tips and advice as I fight through the interesting battle that is blogging and social media. That seems relatively popular. Other days, I post about finances and life. A few of you have mentioned these posts to me in person,…

Actually, today (Tuesday) marks the one-week anniversary! So let’s celebrate. In one week, VJA has welcomed 300 views, with 94 as of 11:30…

Making moolah online
“I earned $70,000 in one month.” “My website went from $200 in advertising to $5,000.” “How I became a millionaire online” “What you need to know to make money online” It’s incredible how many websites exist that promise such high claims. Of course, they’re only pulling you to the site to click on their ads,…

I want a husky (and some other YouTube videos)
Yes, I want a dog. My first and only pet – Travis, the 14-year-old border collie/husky/mutt mix, ran away from home at my mom’s place in North Carolina a few weeks ago. She had been moving slowly for some time, so we assume it was the old-dog-goes-to-the-woods-to-die thing. Mom searched and searched for her for…
