Krillion is making summer time easier...

"Summertime and the living is easy". Well, that's what the song says. The truth, however, can be a little different. Summertime is anything but easy for refrigerator owners who are noticing their appliances aren't quite performing up to snuff now that the mercury is making its way up the thermometer. Summer temperatures put a strain on refrigerator compressors and many machines make their last tray of ice before sputtering out for good during this time of year.

So, where does one find a new refrigerator. Although many people search for product information online, most end up buying appliances from local retailers. Krillion, a relatively new company, is trying to make that process as easy as possible for those on the lookout for new appliances. The Krillion Localization Engine allows people to do their research online and then find local businesses who are selling the right products at the right prices. Now you can choose from among all of those great new General Electric refrigerators during your online research and then actually find the right one locally without experiencing the usual headache!

Now, all of that online research won't be wasted when you get to the store only to find that the make and model you wanted aren't available or aren't offered at the price you wanted. You'll have all the info you need to make your summertime a little bit easier, thanks to Krillion.

Pet Hoarder Had Puggle

You may have heard the recent news about the New Jersey animal hoarder whose whom was stuffed with a veritable menagerie, including twenty-four large exotic birds. This individual, who likely suffers from a mental illness, created a situation that the family could no longer tolerate.

Fortunately, it doesn't appear as if the guy was mistreating the animals. The birds, for instance, were all found in clean, well-kept cages. That's good news, because many hoarders are unable to care for their compulsively-collected "mini farms".

The puggle tie-in?

It wasn't just birds in Cumberland County. The gentleman in question had dogs, too--including a puggle. According to a NJ.com article, the puggle is currently available for adoption.

Here's hoping that all of the feathered and furry friends find great new homes. And that the hoarder finds the help he needs, too!

Love Your Puggle During the Dog Days...

Hey, folks. I know this isn't a big newsflash or anything, but it is getting HOT out there.

Summer time is a great time for outdoor fun and frolic with your favorite designer dog, but it's also an extremely dangerous time, too. I'm sure you've been thinking about it ever since things started to warm up, but I feel obliged to remind everyone to pay close attention to the care and handling of their puggles during the summer months.

Remember, your dog needs hydration and can suffer from heat stroke when things get a little too hot out there. Many pets die every year from completely preventable causes related to summer heat, and I'd hate to see your puggle on the list.

So, think about it! Now that it's hot, it's time for you to step up and take care of your puggle!

Oh, and don't forget--you should be wearing sunscreen! :-)

Orlando Vacation Villas

If you're traveling to Orlando, Florida, to spend some time golfing, visiting Disney World, attending a convention or taking advantage of any of the countless other enetertainment options available at this holiday hot spot, you'll need to line up appropriate accomodations.

You could stay at a hotel. Orlando has an impressive number of hotel rooms and all of the major chains are represented. You could stay at the resort of your choice. Most of the top attractions do offer on-site accomodations. There is, however, another very attractive choice: Orlando vacation villa rentals!

Why stay in a run-of-the-mill hotel featuring the same generic experience as that offered in every other U.S. city when you can secure a fully-featured vacation home at a competitive price? Wouldn't your vacation time be more enjoyable and flexible if you had a "real" place at your disposal instead of settling for a tiny hotel room?

The next time you make plans to visit Orlando, consider looking into some of the great rental vacation villas in the area. It can be the difference between a good vacation and an absolutely perfect set of lifelong memories!

Crazy Pug Fan Lambasts Puggle People

What is up with fans of the pug being so down on puggle people? I just don't get it.

Some people like chocolate, others vanilla. I might like thought-provoking foreign films with subtitles and abstract symbolism. You might like Judge Dredd. I love puggles. They love pugs.

So be it! Let diversity of thought and opinion flourish!

Not for some, though. Take, for instance, this pug advocate whose love for the pug makes him a freaky hater of the puggle. Oh, but please note that part of the reason the pug admirer seems to go loco is because puggle buddies are rude to him.

The puggle/pug war is apparently on. I'm gonna be like Jimmy Stewart in Shenandoah. This ain't my war and I'm not taking sides.

I am, however, a puggle person. Nonetheless, I can love pugs, too.

Here's an excerpt from the bizzare world of puggle hatred:

"However, if you are looking for that pug/beagle mix mutt of a dog, I still don't like you, so go away. I am tired of constantly complaining about the puggle hits, so I will stop now. You may have worn me down all you puggle lovers, but the link at the top of this page will forever serve as a reminder of how much I hate you. OK, maybe not forever - I get bored pretty quickly."
