Alright back in April we purchased our iPad 2 and everything was going good then I dropped it while having it in an otter box protection case only I didn't have the face cover on it and it hit the computer chair you know the base of it where the roller wheels are yeah hit it just right and shattered the face of it...I purchased a walmart product care plan when I bought it which the iPad 2 was $600...OK so I sent it to have the screen replaced to walmart care plan they sent it back and left it on my porch for the taking for who knows how long they left it there...so then when I got it back the battery life was changed it didn't hold a charge very long and now it wont hold a charge at all...so I called apple instead because I didn't want to have it delivered without my knowing and it be left for who ever to take...and they said they could take care of it but I needed a service plan I gave them my payment information and then they transferred me and they said I didn't need that service because its hardware related and its supported without the phone service...which by the way lasts only 90 days then you have to purchase an extension for phone support...so they can trouble shoot your problem then resolve it or decide its hardware...so you have to pay additional money for someone to tell you that its hardware otherwise to my understanding you cannot call them and set up a repair for the hardware issues...OK so its the battery I sent it in to Apple to be fixed and some how in the conversations on the phone the order for it to be fixed was canceled I will call them soon and there will be a part 2 to this rant but I am not at all pleased with Apple and how they operate especially on such an expensive item as an iPad 2 yeah I know their laptops are more but I honestly at this point in time would like a refund I am so discouraged by their support I have gotten so far...I called them when the first hardware issue began which was when I got it back from Walmart product care they said it was program problem that I needed to reset the iPad to factory settings and it would resolve it didn't fix the problem and at this point I cannot even hook it up to my computer cause the iPad turns off and on and off and on when it is hooked up to my laptop which no its not an Apple THANK GOD FOR THAT! I don't ever plan to buy another Apple product ever again especially if this issue isn't fixed...again I will call them after the holiday and see about it and then update the blog so stay tuned for the next rant or resolve...and in the mean time DONT BUY APPLE unless you of course don't mind coasters when they stop working cause thats what its looks like its good for at this point...thanks for staying tune for the next entry...and not buying APPLE yeah right like I have that much power over you all...you will do what you want...I hope you don't get screwed around like me...good luck if you do buy from them!

search engines on store sites
I really hate that when you type in a certain term that it brings up both words singular or together so you never actually find what your looking for...like right now I am looking for a good vlogging video camera that I can see the screen when its pointed at me I have tried numerous ways of saying what I think it would be called and still have only found a couple cameras and only by chance like the Samsung one with the flip screen which is cool but too pricey for my kind...and the bloggy or whatever which I hear isn't the greatest...so I keep trying to find one on the sites and find absolutely nothing but camera's with screens imagine that! Anyway I am very frustrated. Even Google fails me in trying to find such terms stated together in a sentence "flip screen" "movable screen" "vlogging camera" "best vlog camera" "adjustable screen" etc. all ending of course with camera but you get the point I have tried them all and only get Best cameras and adjustable straps on cameras that have screens! ugh! Anyways, I thought I might ask you all out there who ever you are and if you ever do come to my site, have you found a video camera perfect for vlogging where you can point the screen at yourself while you are videoing yourself? I would greatly appreciate any comments on this as I am at a loss with the search engines on Walmart, Bestbuy, Samsung, Kodak, Target, and many more. Thank you in advance for any advice :-)
Talk to you later

Scofield Hyundai body shop
We were in a driver side impact t-bone accident on 11-11-11...and well the door was so crushed it wouldn't open and at the top of the door it bowed open. Anyway, we took it to Scofield because we figured they would have the parts and right paint color.
We got it back 12 days later cuz we were unable to pick it up on the 11th day as they had it done then. Anyway, the car smelt like nail polish or nail polish remover very strongly from the paint job, and it looked like the dust had been just smeared around, I also noticed a spot on our light tan interior seat, but it might have been there prior but I can't remember. They left the polite paper floor cover sharing their strive to keep it clean, but yet smeared the dust all over the dash, knobs and radio face. Well anyway, the work was done from what I can tell with the way the door shuts etc. over all on the actual work done I'm impressed. The cleanliness of the car afterward could use some work though. Anyway. They sent a thank you card too. Hope we are not on a mailing list now...oh well.
Anyways I just wanted to share that with you.

Dodge Avenger car
Well we were in an accident on 11-11-11 and while our beloved Hyundai Elantra was being fixed, we were rented a Dodge Avenger. So I have quite the opinion on this car for the just over a week rental period.
The trunk though spacious and accessible from the middle pull down cup holder area in the rear seat, which my children enjoyed throwing toys and trash in there it was rather entertaining as well as revengeful for my children to throw the other child's toy in the trunk. There was water that leaked out of the trunk latch due to I believe the rear light not being sealed properly.
Most importantly the biggest compliant I have are the horrible blind spots, I nearly cut so many people it wasn't even funny. And I looked best I could and still missed seeing several cars even a truck! I also didn't like how easy it was to flip the brights on and off, I had to of blinded so many people when I used the blinker! The heater worked well, didn't get to try the air conditioner because it's cold here, so I can't comment on that part.
I noticed when locking, unlocking, and starting the car there is a bit of a delay for some reason. Like I would turn the key and it took like a couple seconds to engage the car to start, most bizarre thing I've experienced with starting a car... Same with the button unlock or lock system, it took a second or two to engage.
The steering was very touchy almost too touchy...very tight suspension, and the radius wasn't very good, I kinda expected with the tightness I could turn tighter corners but I was wrong. Didn't wreck or anything so that's a plus!
The pick up and go was the best part, there was no hesitation in gearing up to get on the highway, just those blind spots got in the way of really seeing what it could do.
The seats didn't feel like the supported my lower back like they looked like they would, which would of been nice. I couldn't see myself or my family taking it on a long drive, I mean yeah it had more room than our Hyundai, but I felt we were at the pump more often, still need to figure out if it has a smaller tank or is just that much worse on gas than our Hyundai.
Needless to say I'm very happy to have my Hyundai back.
I personally wouldn't buy the Avenger just cause the blind spots being so bad. Too life risking to trade power and tight suspension. Plus you kind of felt claustrophobic inside it and I don't know if it's because of the black interior or the high window placement or what. Just know I felt like it was closing in on me.
I heard the Dodge Charger is the same way with blind spots, and actually the Avenger was built based on the charger so it's basically a baby charger. Anyways, just thought I would share this info with you all, who ever you are. Do you own one? Do you disagree? Comment below and tell me, better yet go test drive one and then come and tell me there are no blind spots in the sucker! :-) good luck! Hope you live through it to tell me about it. Thanks for stopping by and reading this.
