Do these items looks familiar to you? They didn't to me either until I went to the Walmart website one day and saw up in the corner a link for Poise and the 2nd Talk. What the heck was the 2nd Talk?

This is my son. Ok, he may not have been born to me but when I married his father he became mine. I watched him walk across the stage this past weekend and receive his diploma. A day we struggled for, for the last 4 years. He was not the best of students, he was forgetful and at times careless, but he always tried his best and treated people with respect and a smile.

Once or twice a month I will rent a movie at Blockbuster or from the pay per view channels on my tv. This time I decided to do things a bit differently. I had to go to Walmart to pick up a few things, including something 'yummy' for my son, and saw the movie "We Bought a Zoo" as soon as I walked in the door.

I recently purchased this new cereal for my son because he's a fan of the 'Toast Crunch' cereals. It's new and he likes to try new things so I wasn't afraid of that, what I was afraid of was that this box of cereal didn't stand a chance and would be gone in the blink of the eye as soon as the other kids found out about it. I was right. He loved it.

You know how, when you're a kid, you follow your father around and do what he does? That's how my love for motors started. My dad tinkered on everything from cars and trucks to lawn mowers and go carts. So I guess it's only natural that I use the same products he does.
