Hello hello Gnafia!
It is once again Friday. Which usually means it's time for Friday Freebies. Continuing with my 'Oooh, these freebie are geared towards <insert name>' and in the spirit of Wednesday's post, a much younger, more nostalgic Gnafia Gnodfather is the target of today's Friday Freebies. Without further delay, here are your Friday Freebies!
Honorable Mention: Junior Edition Slime
The young Gnodfather at one point had one of those neat mad scientist laboratory kit where you made all sorts of tasty concoctions and delights under the guise of science. It was fantastic. He also watched plenty of shows with slime, and in general, like most little boys, liked slimey, gooey things. So, in honor of that aspect of the young Gnodfather, you can get your own Junior Edition Vial of slime! Click here to get your free vial of slime!
Runner-Up: 5 Free Sports Cards
The young Gnodfather was an avid collector of sports cards. Yes, the Gnodfather's parents would be frequented with requests to go to Schinder's to fuel this collection craze. Well, you too can satisfy that collection itch with 5 free sports cards! Be sure to like 'Breaker Brothers' on Facebook, as that is all they ask in return for 5 cards from the last 3 decades of your favorite sports team. Click here to get your free sports cards!
Winner: First Aid Kit
Like most young Gnafiamembers, the Gnodfather would often get scraped, banged up, and even cut. Not by a knife, but usually by some peice of furniture. The Gnodfather's parents no doubt would have preferred this free first aid kit vice the dirty dish towel used to apply pressure to gushing head wounds sustained during mischief. You can be prepared with a FREE first aid kid! The promo code that is asked for is KIT. Click here to get your free first aid kit!
Double Winner: 50 Pieces of Oragami Paper
Well, the Gnodfather enjoyed building and making things. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any free LEGO's, which would have been perfect. Instead, I did find a way to get 50 free pieces of Oragami Paper, PLUS a lot of online oragami instructions on the same site. Click here to get started with your own oragami building! Or is it more folding, rather than building? Who knows!
Thats all for this week. I must say this is probably one of the better weeks we've had for free stuff. I hope you all enjoy it and take advantage of it! I'll be uploading a picture of the bountiful goodness recieved so far in the Gnafia's Hideout as evidence that these are legit!
Keep it in the family! Or tell everyone, that way the family grows. But keep it in the family, too.

Nostalgia
Greetings Gnafia,
Today I'm here to blog about nostalgia. What brings up this pseudo-random topic? Well, itself of course! I spent the entire lunch hour today discussing LEGO's of all things with a co-worker. I have some very fond memories of LEGOs when I was a child, and other not-so-fond memories where I'd like to go back and punch myself in the face and tell myself to stop being such an idiot. So, as part of this tribute I'd like to thank my parents and my siblings especially for putting up with me as a younger child. I'm sure my antics weren't appreciated, but I greatly appreciate you all putting up with me and helping me get to where I am today.
There is definately a place in a Man Cave for a work bench. I almost feel that any person who has a Man Cave and played with LEGOs as a child ought to have a healthy nostalgia for those little building bricks and of course include them in their holiest of shrines to all things manly. Of course, there shouldn't be anything wrong with going over to a friend's house and bringing a 6-pack of Leinenkugel's and engineering some sort of LEGO contraption. But there is that precept that you're playing with children's toys. To that I say, "I believe the box says '14+', and I am postive I fall into the '+' category!"
Now, if you have something you are particularily nostalgic about, I encourage you to leave a comment. It can be from your childhood, your children's childhood, or something that happened this morning, because I'm nostalgic about my dog whenever I'm not at home with her and my wife. Speaking of dog's, we had a dog as a kid named Cisco. Cisco was a great dog. Hooray for nostalgia!
Keep it in the family!

Swag Bucks Monday
Hey hey Gnafia!
I know it's been about a week since I've last posted. I was on leave last week, hence the lack of posting. But we're back in full force!
I'd like to revisit one of my first posts about Swag Bucks, the site where you can get FREE Amazon Gift Cards and other sweet stuff (including cash) for doing everything you normally do on the web (surfing, voting in polls, clicking links, etc.). If you sign up today by clicking on the Swidget (on the righthand side) or by clicking HERE to sign up you can enter a code for a BONUS 20 Swag Bucks on top of the regular 50 for signing up. You'll be well on your way to the 450 required for a $5 Amazon Gift Card.
As a status update on Swag Bucks, I've earned about $50 in Amazon Gift Cards so far in the ~3 months I've used it so far. It takes about 5 minutes a day and I've been making bank (in my opinion, at least). Make sure to do your dailies: 1) Voting in the daily poll 2) Clicking on 'Trust Surveys' 3) Clicking through the NOSO and 4) Searching for Swag Bucks in the morning and evening.
Easy, easy day. To get your Swag Code, click on the Swidget and select the button at the bottom that says 'Swag Code' and then 'Check to see if there is a code'. Enter that code and you'll end up with some free Swag Bucks! AWESOME!
Thats it for now, Gnafia.
Keep it in the family.
