The Good Life- Tip#5

January 24, 2008

I’ve always had this quote for men’s fashion- “You can like a pair of jeans, but you should ask yourself, ‘Does this pair of jeans like me?’ When the answer to that question is YES! Well you my friend have found the perfect pair of jeans.

We Are The Best Person of Ourselves

January 20, 2008

Ever wonder how we’re always trying to be like someone else. We feel that if we were that person then our life would be so great… OK, maybe not great but at least a bit better? When we do this we are not developing ourselves and wasting precious time. The most important thing to strive for is the best version of ourselves.

Race Against Time

January 14, 2008

I’m off to bed now, but I wanted to leave you with this one thought. Doesn’t it seem in life the only true enemy is time? It’s the scurrying that causes stress in this world. In the end will it all really matter? Satisfaction is leaving this world with one big influence. Something that will live for years beyond our own lives. Make sure whatever it is you decide to do that is it a positive effect. Don’t let anyone judge the validity of it. They are just jealous. All else is a catalyst to get you to that point. You’ll know it when your there.

Tetes a Claques

January 10, 2008

Over the weekend I was out with friends. One who is fluent in French (Justin) was reciting lines from about an episode of Tetes a Claques (Halloween). Yesterday afternoon after working the morning & noon newscasts I happen to start watching some of these Tetes a Claques clips. My mother translated them for me… which helped add to the humor. However, if you can’t understand french it’s still freaking funny.

I Don’t Care About Your Dog/Cat/Bird/Etc.

January 10, 2008

My rant for the day. STOP TALKING ABOUT YOUR PET. I don’t own a dog, cat, bird, etc. I don’t care how cute they are. The bark, chirp, jump, poop, and lick. It’s gross and I’m not an animal person. I don’t care. Don’t force animals on me. I know I’ll get a vast amount of hate mail on this, but that’s how I feel. I’m use to being in the minority…

Hillary Wins NH!

January 9, 2008

With working the morning and noon newcasts all week my sleep times vary. Yesterday as I ate lunch around 2pm and watched a bit of Fox News their polls had Hillary behind by 10 points in NH. I went to bed around 3pm and when I woke up around 8:30pm to head to the gym I was so happy to learn that Hillary was in the lead. She is by far the most experienced candidate on the Democratic side. I wish her well with the rest of the primaries.  Goes to show you to never give up.

Grown Men Who Own Cats

January 5, 2008

What is it with grown men and cats? Three (grown men) this week at work somehow starting talking about their cats. What they do, what they like, and how cute they are. Call me crazy, but is it normal for a grown man to own a cat? Am I the only one who thinks that is a bit odd? Anybody that knows me knows I can’t relax and feel comfortable if there are animals/kids running around. But that’s not the point I’m making right now. A dog I can see a grown man owning… well certain types. They can’t be a small dog, because owning a small dog is like owning a cat, and that’s just crazy talk right there. Don’t you agree?

Rock Her World

January 3, 2008

I woke up this morning to read this story about a model in this commercial for a jewelry store who is suing the company. They did not disclose the name of the model in the video. Apparently they told her that an average guy putting a necklace on her would get her excited. My opinion: If your hired by the company, paid, and participate in the shoot then they own all the footage and can do what they want. Plus if your moaning for a camera how do you think the ad will come across? Seriously, this ad is no worse then the famous Herbal Essences ads of yesteryear (see below both ads).
