Coupons Alabama - Coupons and Coupon Codes on GetCalhoun.com is the name of my Coupons Page on GetCalhoun.com.
I have access to tons and boatloads of coupons for just about everything you can imagine. The coupons are changed out all the time. But that is not why I write.
Sadly, my video went poof. Yes, Coupons and Coupon Codes on GetCalhoun.com was billed as the most unique coupon code place in the entire world because of my live deer cam featuring a live shot from somewhere in Arkansas 24 hours a day. How many coupon pages have a live deer cam on it? Why would they even want one?
Well, the video was purloined from ESPN. I and a few other sites grabbed their video feed to use on our own sites. I really thought I was unique until the feed went black and I started looking around.
Naturally, the other sites were outdoorsy type places....and wouldn't know a coupon code if it bit them. So, in that regard, Coupons and Coupon Codes on GetCalhoun.com was pretty unique.
Alas, ESPN decided one fine day recently to get out of the outdoors business and back strictly to the team sport business. It's maddening! I LOVED that deer cam. But, we have to learn to let go of the things we love from time to time.
So...in an effort to put something...anything...in the way of video back on the page, I discovered a purely delightful little vid about the Russian Home Shopping Network. It is called, appropriately enough, "russian home shopping network." It seemed to me to be the right thing to do.
You will want to click on the link at the top, go visit, buy a few things, and tell ALL your friends about it. It's a real good thing!

Survival Information is one of my websites that I have worked hard for search engine optimization to get a better result on Google. It looks like the work is paying off.Last evening, I noticed that it had moved up to position #7 from position #9 on the first page of Google for the phrase, "survival information."
This is a remarkable thing for a number of technical reasons that I won't mention. But I will say that it is on page one of a search phrase that gives About 146,000,000 results. Getting on page one of Google with competition like this is in the very upper strata of getting a website found. I do these things on a regular and predictable basis.
Please don't look on this as bragging. I mean, it is bragging, but you don't have to look at it that way. Heh heh.
What I do for myself, I can do for you...or even teach you to do for yourself. If you have ANY aspirations to be one of those people who sit around the kitchen table all day long making money from the Internet, you MUST visit my Internet Marketing Training pages and TAKE ACTION.

Angie's List Reviews is one of my oldest affiliate accounts on GetCalhoun.com. I'm pretty proud of this one because it demonstrates the power of GetCalhoun.com outside the area. Nationwide my Angies List pages come up VERY often for typical searches for Angies List. Hundreds of searches, and most on the front page of Google, Bing, and Yahoo, the top search engines.
When my sales fell off I started looking around. Seems like someone had gotten ahead of me with their Angies Coupon. Common sense says folks were going there for a better deal. I would have myself.
So, I got in touch with the affiliate wrangler there at Angies, who is a super guy and secured a better deal. For the longest, I have been offering 20% off Angies, like several other purveyors including all the talk radio guys like Beck, Hannity, Levin, etc. But now, I have secured 25% off. That's a nickel more than 99% of the competition.
You may not be interested in Angies, or you might. The point is that once again, GetCalhoun.com proves to be an industry leader.
How do we do it? We do it through hard work and HONESTY. If anything, I talk too darn much, but I like folks to know where I'm coming from and what they are getting. I don't present the slickest advertising, but I do present the most honest advertising. Hopefully folks will recognize this and respond accordingly.

I'll be very blunt. If you are presented with the situation of sheltering in place during an F4 or F5 tornado in Calhoun County, Alabama, you most likely will die. The Joplin, MO tragedy put an exclamation point on this theory.
You might survive an F4. You will most definitely not survive an F5, unless you are below ground with some handles to hold onto to keep from getting sucked out of your shelter.
An F0 tornado can kill you under the proper circumstances. Even straight line winds can flatten you like a crushed beer can if a tree falls on you during the event
Seems like in my youth puffy white clouds would turn into pleasant showers and even thunderstorms off and on all summer long. Nowadays, about the only time we get good rain from Spring until Winter is when a rowdy violent squall line roars through our fair towns.
It's pretty clear now to a lot more people that simply going to the lowest floor of the house, which is most often the hall closet or interior bathtub isn't going to cut it any longer.
Even better, if you're at work, what are you going to do? Leave? And go where?
It is time in Calhoun County, Alabama that the people in charge spend some of our tax dollars to give more people more options, and that means constructing underground storm shelters where they will do the most good.
I say that this could be accomplished, from start to finish by next spring...if there were a will to do it.
In the meantime, safer locations could be identified and plans put into place to assure that they would be available to the public in times of storms. I can think of two places this very minute. One in downtown Oxford AL, and one in downtown Anniston AL that were locked when the Tuscaloosa tornado came within 20 miles of ruining our collective lives here.
I say that there is no reason for folks who want to survive to not be able to survive. If there was ever a wake up call, this season of twisters was surely it. Shelter in place is not viable when the air hits you at 200+ miles per hour.
The challenge here is that someone must step up and lead the movement to provide livable shelter for folks who want to use it when a storm is coming. It won't get done by itself, and if I'm any judge of local politics, it won't get done easily.
If it comes down to ball parks or bomb shelters, I choose the latter. We can live to play ball another day. (Of course with all this Obama money floating around, we should be able to have both.)
