Thanks to DVDs, all of your favorite '80's animations series are being are becoming available to own. Mill Creek Entertainment released the first 32 episodes of the 1987 series Beverly Hills Teens earlier this year and now the second volume featuring the final 33 episodes is available to own on DVD.

Beverly Hills Teens is about a group of wealthy teens, but with the typical teenage problems, but the problems are outrageous. It’s a combination of Sweet Valley High and 90210. The series had a wide variety of different characters, such as the 10-year-old freshman Chester McTech, the money crazed Buck Huckster, scheming Bianca Dupree and the part-time model Larke Tanner.

Review:

When most people hear about an animated cat, they probably think of Garfield, but there was another cat on the airwaves in the 1980s called Heathcliff, based on the comic strip of the same name. The smart-talking cat debuted in a short animated series from 1980-1982, but returned in an all-new series in 1984-1988 with a total of 86 episodes, which featured an 11-minute Heathcliff adventure and an 11-minute The Catillac Cats episode.

Mill Creek Entertainment recently released Heathcliff: Season One, Volume Two featuring 33 episodes on a 3-disc set.

The episodes are:

With the holidays around the corner, I'm sure there are many people (young and old) dreaming of owning an exotic car for Christmas. I recall riding in an old friend's 1969 Ford Boss, which is my only exotic car driving experience, and it was a heavenly experience, minus a few bumps, as the car was in rough condition, but still drivable.

Giving a family member or friend an exotic car for Christmas would make a perfect gift. Yes, I know cars can expensive, but there are other options than buying a new car.

Though young kids (boys and girls) are a bit to young to drive a car, they also have a fascination with cars, too, as they probably picked it up from their parents. A great present idea is a collectable Hot Wheels or Match Box toy car or even a remote control car.

Plastic car models may be a thing of the past, but they still exist at hobby shops and online stores. You can find a model on about any type of car ever made. This can make a great present for a child, teenager or even an adult.

Many people my age have their own businesses, which a few are closing because of the failing economy. Sadly, I don't own a business, unless you count a little bit of freelancing writing a business, as well as blogging.

For those who don't know what blogging is, a blog is online journal and media outlet, which stretches from mommy/daddy blogs to professional journalist blogs. Basically, you can find a blog on any subject you can come up with.

My blog is primarily a book blog, though I have stretched out into other review terrorizes over the past two years. I consider myself to be an average blogger, as there are die-hard bloggers that can make an actually income from blogging about their favorite authors, mostly this is from advertising. These bloggers travel around the world attending book blog conventions, where bloggers get to meet publishers and authors. I've heard you can make many connections there and receive tons of free books to review or giveaway to your readers. The rare few might actually get a publisher's attention with their writings and get offered a job.

My Answer:

It depends if the review has to be posted right away, as there are times I have forgotten about a book and I have to read it at the last moment. Normally, I wait at least a day for writing a review; that way I can reflect on the book before I write the review.

Linky List:

When I say the word "internship" most people probably think of this past summer's critically panned "The Internship" starring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn. An internship is a non-paying job (though there are some paying ones) or more of work-study to see if a person can handle a job.

You may think internships are only for college students and adults, but there are many companies offering summer internships for high schoolers. Sure, the last think most teenagers are thinking about is working the entire summer with no paycheck, but an internship can be rewarding and will look great on a college application. 

I know it is almost Thanksgiving, but some companies and businesses are already accepting internships for 2014. You should ask your school councilor or your local career/job center (most towns have one) about applying for an internship.

Types of internships you can find are at universities, research facilities, children's hospitals, cancer centers, sciences departments, summer school programs, libraries, city halls, government buildings, news stations, etc… If you can't find the internship job you are wanting, locate the business you’re interested in and ask them if they will take an internship student.
