Weekly Feature Added, Morning Coffee, and Being Self-Employed

I’m Writing Over at Squidoo.com too!

Well, I think I’m finally getting the hang of writing on Squidoo.com. Whew! And one of the things I learned is that I can’t post exactly the same article here on my blog and on Squidoo. So from time to time I’ll post a short blurb here to highlight what I wrote there.

Confused?

I feel your pain. My Inner Domestic Diva has gone back to bed and is cuddling with her bon-bons.

When you think about it for a couple of moments, though, it makes sense. Squidoo is a business, they are there to make money to keep things running, pay the staff, and then donate the rest of it to charity so they don’t want duplicate content. They want the original stuff. The first run top-notch garbanzo beans. The primo coffee as it were. If I were writing an article for a newspaper or magazine then I’d only be able to publish it in one place. Squidoo has no problem sharing the wealth in the interest of attracting high quality original content. Which is where I come in. I write, I attract readers, I get a share of the $$.

Hmmmm..

Which brings me to an interesting point. I’m having great fun writing this BUT, I’m not doing it just for fun…

Finding Good Triple Two Step Music

May 6

Posted by Tony New (TxCowboyDancer)

Music for “Triple Two Step”

Finding good music for a particular genre of dance is often very hard to do. In this post, you’ll find some basic information on “Triple Two Step” and some sample videos so you can see it for yourself what the dance looks like.

If you do a Google search you’ll come up with a lot of possibilities and trust me on this, a lot of them are garbage. Bleech!

So I’ve created a page of some good ones. What? Do I sense some skepticism from the teeming masses? Fear not gentle readers, the songs have been reviewed by my Inner Domestic Diva and they have met with her approval! You can check out the page at Triple Two Step Music — Song List

This list of songs is complied from a variety of sources found on the Internet, including ones from my own library and suggestions from the readers of this blog. You can follow the links on the list to hear previews of the songs and buy your own copy if you like it. And if you do buy a song or CD, then I get a couple of pennies commission. Right now I just have the Amazon Links in place. I’ll have links to iTunes on the list soon.

SAVINGS TIP: Get the CD. A lot of the CDs on Amazon are priced under a dollar. And you get a whole set of songs. Yes, you have to pay postage, but the cost per song is much lower than downloading one song at a time.

If you have a favorite Triple Two Step Song and it isn’t listed here, don’t be shy! You can use the comment form down at the bottom of the page to send me a note and I’ll add it to the list. So what are you waiting for? Check out the page at Triple Two Step Music — Song List.
