fidipidi Offers Promotion to Encourage Support for Our Troops

Just in time for Fourth of July, fidipidi, a new Facebook App that allows you to create and send physical greeting cards from your computer, is providing a special offer to make it easy to show your support for the troops.  Now through July 9th, when you purchase one of fidipidi’s dozen new patriotic cards, you will receive another card free. Since fidipidi is fully integrated with Facebook, you can also take advantage of those features, such as pulling in friends’ photos, to make your card even more personal.

I encourage you to:

• Check out the service at www.facebook.com/fidipidi
• Purchase your patriotic card and get another one for free with the offer code “MILITARY” (If you order two Patriotic cards on a single order, you will receive two free cards.)
• See a quick overview of how it works at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWDxp9QuN7A

Sex and the City 2 Movie Rumors

There are many rumors that are surrounding Sex and the City 2 movie.  And one of them is who will Carrie choose: Big or Aiden.

I think the audience will be totally surprised at Carrie with whomever she chooses Big or Aiden. I think Carrie should stick with Big because all relationships have its ups and downs. All relationships should have some emotions to experience. You will have some rooting for Big, while others maybe for Aiden. Don't be surprised if she doesn't pick either one. Relationships are so unpredictable now a days, that often it leads to an unexpected option or choice.

Just a few quick reminders:

- Only EXTRA gets you on the list for the Sex and the City 2 World Premiere in New York City on May 24th!
