Safety is very important and a sure-fire way to the prevention of fatal injuries. I remind my kids to wear their helmets when they ride their bikes. They are to wear proper clothing and shoes to keep them safe in case something goes wrong, and because an accident can happen anytime to anyone. I like to keep a close eye on my kids when they go swimming at the local pool. They are to read the rules and to know what is expected of them. If I see them slack off or forget a rule, I remind them that running is not allow due to things being more slippery when wet. I trust my son to be home alone if he is at the right age. He is to keep the house locked and allow no strangers in. He is to remain inside the house, as this will lessen the chance of him locking himself out. He’s reminded to call the emergency number and my cell phone if he needs me. If I leave him he’s not alone for very long, not until he’s mature. We do have a Home Security alarm, just not activated. Of course there is our dog who’s very sensitive to people she doesn’t trust. If we were to have the security alarm activated, I’d make sure my kids know the codes, and let them keep those codes a secret, only to themselves.

I’m not a huge fan of social networking sites. Although I admit that I am guilty of using MySpace very briefly, I realized quickly enough that those social networking sites are basically just a haven for stalkers and weirdoes. Being that I am no stranger to being stalked and do not enjoy it in the least, I have deflected from utilizing the services of sites like MySpace and Facebook. Neither of which are secure, in my opinion, nor do they respect or protect one’s privacy.
That doesn’t stop me, however, from still browsing around various social networking sites myself and laughing at all the weird crap I find on them. Which basically leads to the reason for this post.. I came across some really strange social networking sites that kind of baffle me, and confuse me. I realize that this is the internet, and you find some of the strangest crap on the internet, but even knowing that doesn’t take away from the shock value of some of these websites.
Anyway, I’m not going to drone on and on about my hatred for social networking sites, nor am I going to drone on about these ridiculous sites I found. If you’re bored and you want a laugh… or if you are a weirdo and you want a place to meet other weirdoes like yourself, then check out these sites. Seriously.
And uh.. have fun?

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of MeetLocals.com. All opinions are 100% mine.
Although I can’t say that I’ve ever been inclined to join a dating website, I know a few people who have and I also know of some of their success stories with dating sites. My very good friend happens to be one of those success stories as she met her current husband on a dating site.
With technology being what it is, it’s no wonder that there are now more people using dating sites and trying out the whole internet dating thing than ever before. It’s just another way to meet and get to know people. So with the two new dating services that I just learned about recently launching, I’m sure there will be even more, and greater opportunities for those who enjoy dating sites to interact and get to know one another.
The two new dating sites are Shop4guys.com, which should be pretty self explanatory and Meetlocals.com, which is a dating site that helps you to meet people in your local vicinity that may share the same interests as you. Apparently from what I have read on twitter, Heidi Montag from "The Hills" had a link to Shop4Guys.com on her twitter update in June. I wonder if that means she actually uses this website? Hmm.. imagine meeting a celebrity on an internet dating website. That would be totally cool.
If you’re interested in meeting someone compatible to you, maybe you should check out one of these sites. There are two levels up paid membership upgrades, silver and gold that you can choose from that have some cool features also.
