The Sitka Kayak Adventure

While in Sitka, Alaska, C.B. & I journeyed to a faraway cove to face the rigors of cold water kayaking off the shores of the Alaskan back country. We were in search of fame, fortune, and fowl, but actually all we saw were eagles and salmon. But the scenery? Absolutely fabulous! Shooting this video was extremely hazardous because of the fragile nature of the kayak, and the fact that C.B. kept rocking the kayak trying to light his cigar. Scared the fish away. But it was quiet and serene and really not all that cold (at least according to the natives). Watch closely and first you'll see a humpback sounding, then a couple of eagles high up in a tree. Wildness and wilderness, a oft repeated refrain when in search of Alaskan wildlife. Check it out at the Digitalshores Site.

Don't forget to check my other blog post at http://shagmiser.blogspot.com/ 'cause it's got some cool IM thoughts from Jim Daniels.

This is probably the last video post from our Alaskan Cruise (you wanna hold down that applause) so let us know what you think, or not! It was major fun filming and producing these various videos for "all you all."

OK OK - So it didn't work!

I tried to upload C.B.'s pictorial essay of the Alaskan Cruise, but it was way too bulky and long, and I had problems. So where we pointed you to (http://www.digitalshores.net/) is not doing real well right now. But have patience. I'll be breaking it down and reposting, probably tomorrow. Once I get through Neil Shearing's new "Positive Cashflow Secrets" video course. I cannot recommend this course highly enough. It's got everything I needed to help with my site.

My main site, The Internet Retirement System, touts passive, recurring income as THE WAY to go for retirees and work-at-home moms wanting to earn supplemental income. So naturally, Neil's course was an obvious selection for me, so I could learn even more. Once that's done, I'll rework and repost CB's pictures.

Neil's course was originally recommended to me by Martin Avis of the Kickstart newsletter. I really respect his (Martin's) views and opinions. He's a straight shooter and doesn't give out positive testimonials to just anybody.

TTFN - and CIO!
BTW - I expand a little more on Neil's course in my other blog, http://shagmiser.blogspot.com

Two New Alaskan Cruise Videos Posted

Well, I've done it again, added 2 new Alaskan Cruise videos. One is a deck crawl mixed in with a pub crawl, and the other is of the Hubbard Glacier, as part of the inside passage. Charlie Brown stars in the first, the Hubbard Glacier in the next. One is about jogging and pubbing, the other is about finding ice for your next drink. Go figure.

I am in the midst of trying out 2 new services right now that seem really promising. One is another list builder that I am testng, and the other has to do with sending out actual physical cards for birthdays, special occasions, etc. without leaving the comfort of your home computer. I'll keep playing with both, and let you know how I fare with each, and what I think of them.

I'm hoping the card idea will help me keep in contact with my customer base a lot more effectively. Thanks to Ann Seig and her team for turning me on to this. You all remember Ann, she's the lady responsible for the "Renegade Network Marketer." I'm in the midst of reading it now, and I'll review it next post.Anyway, enjoy the videos, they have been posted at my Alaskan Cruise mini site.

Ciao for Now - Dick
PS - Don't forget to also check in with my Shagmiser Blog - Neil Shearing jusr released a new video course on Passive Cashflow, and it's really good. I've already got a copy.

More Alaska Cruise Videos

I have just posted 2 new Alaska videos, but instead of using this blog site to post, I created a new website, specifically for the Alaskan Cruise videos and still pictures. It's a our Alaskan Cruise site (click on the underlined hyperlink), and I'll be adding to it as I get more videos edited and posted.

Here's a new thing I've decided to try, and I wanted to let you know about it. As most of you know, our metabolism slows down as we age, AND, we tend to do a lot less in terms of physical activity (does the term "couch potato" ring a bell?). Well, wanting to do something to supplement my minimal physical (12 oz. curls?) and increase my metabolic rate, I've decided to try HealthSlim from MicroNutra. Click HERE for more serious info. They've got an iron clad money back guarantee.

There's an option to receive an RSS feed to notify you as I add posts to this blog, which I'll do everytime I add a new video, or have something else to say. Here's the URL to get the feed:
