Helicopter Show in San Carlos!
June 13, 2009
What started out as a pre-party to welcome our helicopter pilots before the big “Vertical Challenge” Air Show has now become an event all to itself. The “Wild Brew Yonder” allows visitors to experience the excitement of “Vertical Challenge” but in a much more intimate setting. Sample beer from the top microbreweries in the Bay Area while enjoying a BBQ dinner and watching the best helicopter performers in the world. This is a unique experience that you can’t find anywhere else! A very fun event!
Cell Phone Going Public, Protect Yourself.
June 10, 2009
Ok, I just had to share this….
REMEMBER: Cell Phone Numbers Go Public next month.
REMINDER…. all cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sales calls. …….. YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THE CALLS. Even if the message is saved on your phone, you will be charged for the minutes to listen to it.
To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone: 888-382-1222 .
It is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute of your time. It blocks your number for five (5) years. You must call from the cell phone number you want to have blocked. You cannot call from a different phone number.
HELP OTHERS BY PASSING THIS ON TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS… It takes about 20 seconds.
