Mission Statement

Being a humble copywriter requires many things of me. When I'm inspired to write a pay per click article in response to inspiration and it's good, that rocks.

My recent foray into the realm of the buyer was hilarious. I thought if I can't underbid them - hire them. In the role of buyer humble isn't a good trait to have. After sorting through 85 bids, and reading endless samples I connected with three great writers. But lacking the time management skills of a total genius or the ability to give up sleeping, I exit stage left to return to what I'm passionate about. Once again, I write.

No more editing other people's writing or spending hours setting up a project for someone who has lied outright about what he expects for an infinitesimal amount of pay. (You don't get Franz Kafka or John Grisham for the same amount you get George Smith for). George who ????

Exactly!

Horseback Riding In Jamaica

by , Jun 26, 2008

There are many horseback riding tours in Jamaica. You can ride on placid trails, mountainous trails or along the beach. There are many places for tourists to go horseback riding in Jamaica. You may gallop through the picturesque countryside and onto the seashore where you can ride bareback into the ocean waters, or ride lazily through a plantation trail with fields of banana, and sugarcane on either side of the equestrian path. Or perhaps a hilly trail or even riding to the top of a mountain would be your style.

A spectacular view of the island is to waiting the end of a mountain trail. Along the way your escort will guide you and tell wonderful stories of the history of Jamaica. For a tremendously exciting time you may even be allowed to ride bareback along the beach. You would have to be an experienced rider for this delightful ride. Nearly every resort or hotel will be happy to arrange one of these equestrian experiences for you at the time of your choice.

There is a Polo Club at Chukka Cove situated between St. Ann Bay and Runaway Bay. It is a state of the art riding and polo club. They offer tours along the beach with a choice of riding in the water or staying on the sand. One of the most popular day trips is the one provided by Safari Tours. You will not only ride but also stop for river tubing. The horseback riding at Prospect Plantation will be on magnificent horses previously used for polo. Anyone who knows horses realizes the excellent quality and training of polo ponies (they are called that as a nickname but are actually horses).

Other services for horseback riding in Jamaica can be found in Negril, Montego Bay as well as the South Coast Area, which provide choices for riding into the mountains, through the countryside or onto the beach and into the water.

Another one worth mentioning is Ocho Rios Jamaica Horseback Riding tour. Ride one of their horses down to a splendid beach where your fantasy of riding a horse bareback into the sea becomes reality. Anyone over the age of five and weighing not more than two hundred and fifty pounds can take this tour. I would suggest experience with riding as a prerequisite.

The guides will take you from your Ocho Rios cruise ship in an air conditioned van to the stables. The drive takes you along the North coast of Jamaica and gives you a great chance to see the sights. You will want a camera along for this drive. To avoid losing or damaging an expensive camera, I would suggest buying a disposable one.

Upon arrival at the stables you will have friendly, horse smart guides to match you with a horse well suited to your level of experience. This adventure is perfect for couples, families and beginners. The professional escorts ensure your security and safety as long as you are honest about your experience with horses. They share their knowledge of the land with you in a continuing narrative on the passing scenery. This tour leads you past a great variety of plants and trees as you make your way towards the sand and sea.

Your time on horseback is about two hours and ends when you get back to the country estate of the stables. Refreshments will await you and you can sip them in a setting surrounded by bougainvillea, pimento trees and fishtail palms. They return you via air conditioned vehicle to your cruise ship.

Advance reservations are required. This adventure will provide an experience to treasure for the rest of your life...

What About Bob?

Finally I blog, the title of my first blog post, made me start to laugh to myself. Who hasn't seen Bill Murray in "What About Bob." I can visualize that marvelous scene where he was tied to the mast on a sailboat. It was the sailboat of Dr. Marvin's daughter and her friends. I still hear him shouting to Dr. Marvin as they sail on by him, "I'm sailing, I'm sailing, look I'm a sailor, I sail" while the look on Richard Dreyfuss' face is priceless.

He sailed and now I'm here announcing "I blog, I blog, I'm a blogger, look, look."

Will anyone laugh when they too recall this movie?

Once i saw Bill Murray in a serious role and I just kept waiting and waiting and wondering why I didn't get the joke. (there wasn't one) I kept thinking it's Bill Murray I should be rofl. Spoiled the whole movie for me.

And now I'm off to bring you one of my pay-per-clicks...

FINALLY, I BLOG

Is there a good way to start a blog. My plan is to somehow advertise with Adsense. Step one not unreasonably is to write things others will elect to actually read. I can do that. I have done that. A few articles on Triond have had over 500 clicks. Woo hoo, that'll getcha $1.24.

I'm passionate about certain topics and write with feeling. For a new writer it's often hard to allow the world access to your deepest feelings. I do love writing advertising copy. I guess in a blog, I'm advertising my words and ability to put them together in a way that flows pleasantly as the reader browses through them.

Perhaps I'll begin with a pay per click article I have published on Triond. Not many fellow bloggers read them on Triond or Helium therefore if no one reads them here, how much worse off will I be.

Everyone loves to travel. Everyone who lives in a colder climate loves to travel to a lovely tropical island where the water is 80 degrees and the people are warm and welcoming. Swim, snorkel, scuba dive below the waves to view amazing creatures of the deep. Leave your winter coat waaay back where you needed it, live in your bikini with Harry Belafonte and Beach Boys songs humming inside your head. What's the first destination that comes to mind - Jamaica mon...
