Can't go to Neopia, but imagine where 500,000 Delta SkyMiles could take you

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TravelPro. All opinions are 100% mine.

Win 500,000 Delta SkyMiles® with Travelpro®

While you cannot get to Neopia (you know the virtual world Neopets is based in), you could go pretty much anywhere in the world with 500,000 Delta SkyMiles.  Of course, first you got to have the miles to use them.  Normally you got to do a lot of flying or use a reward credit card to rack up enough miles, but with the TravelPro sweepstakes you might just get lucky and win 500,000 Delta SkyMiles.  Plus, you get 2 great TravelPro Rollaboard bags, which are great durable bags to make it through the travel of all those miles and more.

Win 500,000 Delta SkyMiles® with Travelpro®

Imagine all the places you could go if you won 500,00 Delta SkyMiles.  You could simply use them to go visit relatives you have not seen in a while or you just do not see as much as you would like.  You could also use the miles to go on new adventures to far away places like Europe, Asia, and South America.  Where would you go if you won 500,000 Delta SkyMiles?

All you got to do to enter for your chance to win is head over to the TravelPro sweepstakes and fill out the entry form.  Note that you do have to be 21 years old or older in order to enter this sweepstakes.

Untitled Jersey City Project - An Interesting work-in-progress TV Drama

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Untitled Jersey City Project. All opinions are 100% mine.

While I love Neopets, I rarely just play the games.  Usually I am also listening to Pandora or watching television shows.  I especially love watching Crime Dramas.  The work-in-progress TV Drama Untitled Jersey City Project seems like just the kind of show I would enjoy following every episode of.

UNT_091311_Title_bmb_v01.ai (1 page)

Currently there are 8 short-form episodes available online.  On their own they leave much to be desired, but they sure work as a great teaser to make me want to see more and look forward to actual full episodes of the show.  The clips show enough to get me interested in the characters as well as the drama and mysteries that they are involved in.

The Untitled Jersey City Project show is about the building of a new city among the burned-out building across the Hudson from New York City.  It may be a new city, but it is still much the same of the same game of money, fame, and power that can be lost or lead to death.

Check out Episode 1 below and get a first taste of this work-in-progress.  Also, feel free to comment and let me know what you think the show will be like (your style or not).

To beat him you must get 11,000 points in Slorgs in Space.

Prize is Pink Slorg Backpack for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are one of the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.
