A few weeks ago I suggested you might want to Get Mom A Clock For Mother's Day. Whether it is an antique shelf or mantle clock or even a new long case clock like a Howard Miller Grandfather Clock or Edward Meyer Grandfather Clock, it will be a special gift that she will love for many years and will almost certainly become a family heirloom.

Well there is now a new storefront on the web for buying old clocks, and interestingly enough the name of the place is MyOldClocks.com.

Over at Wedding Photographer Huntsville Alabama there's a new post about some things to ask or think about when selecting a photographer for your wedding, especially if the wedding is going to be in Huntsville, Alabama.
I won't restate everything here, the article Getting Married in Huntsville Alabama? Need a Photographer? tells us a lot about what to think of and questions to ask, and even mentions honeymoon ideas and thoughts about where to find apartments after you're wed.

Time for the Women on Dancing With the Stars

Tuesday night was the second night of the two night premier of season six of Dancing With the Stars on ABC. and it was all about the women of dancing with the stars.

leading off was shannon elizabeth on dancing with the stars. she rocked! granted she was first shannon elizabeth did a great job as was beautiful doing it! shannon elizabeth is definitely a contender on season six dancing with the stars.

second up to dance was monica seles on dancing with the stars womens opening night. she looked stiff as a board while her partner tried his best to make her look stronger. monica seles was nervous and did not do well. i think monica seles is probably going to be the first woman eliminated from season six dancing with the stars.

the fourth dancer was priscilla presley on dancing with the stars season six. she rocked. priscilla presley age didn't make any difference as she was clearly the best performance of the night. look for her to be a true contended, maybe the winner of dancing with the stars season six.

fifth was olympic skater kristi yamaguchi on dancing with the stars. an early favorite because of her skating background kristi yamaguchi seemed to get off more on the entertaining aspect of the comeptition. She really has that part down. look for kristi yamaguchi to go far on season six of dancing with the stars.

finally it was marlee matlin on dancing with the stars, an award winning actress who is totally and completely deaf. yep, that's right, deaf as a post. she has to depend completely on her partner and timing to do the routine and what ever system they worked out, marlee matlin and her partner rocked the house! clearly second best only behind priscilla presley (the plastic surgery queen).

stay tuned for more updates on dancing with the stars season six for the women and the men!

Another Nail Biter on LOST Tonight

Tonight's episode on the ABC hit series LOST is yet another example of why we love the show! This one is all about Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell) and gives us a lot of the missing pieces that we don't know about her life on the island. And I had forgotten about her thing with Goodwin and I'm pretty sure I didn't know he was married so wow, the hits just keep on coming.

Check out Life In the Internet for Thom's great recap of the ep, What Happened on LOST: The Other Woman. And here's a quickie of Juliet's (Elizabeth Mitchell's) back as she and Goodwin are talking.

Get Mom a Clock for Mother's Day?

Look, Mother's Day is right around the corner. What are you going to get her? It's got to be something great and classy right? Well how about an fine timepiece!

It doesn't have to be an antique (although that might be nice!). It could be just a nice Seth Thomas Mantel Clock or you could go all out and spring for a Howard Miller Grandfather Clock! Wow, that would win you some points wouldn't it?

Which ever way you go, do consider getting mom either an antique clock, Seth Thomas clock, Edward Meyer Grandfather Clock, or a Howard Miller Clock. All of them are fine timepieces that could become family heirlooms if you're not careful! If you have any questions about what to get or need a recommendation, check out the Antique Clocksmith website.

Clocks like these have been called "the heartbeat of a home"... now wouldn't mom like that!!! Get her one!
