PSA: Adultery Makes REALLY Ugly Babies

Wednesday, August 10, 2011




I’m giving myself a big DOH! I could have sworn I included the link to my new website in my last entry. Anyhoo, here it is. Feel free to stop by any time. My site has and will continue to have a little bit of everything. Some sites focus on a specific topic like personal finance, fitness, cooking etc. but I’ve decided to forego that route and just write about the things I enjoy or whatever happens to be on my mind at the time. There’s really no method to my madness content-wise. I mentioned in one post that I’m a “consumer of information”; basically I read a lot and enjoy sharing what I’ve read with others. I've also began listing some of my favorite blogs and sites that I visit at least once or twice a week. Some things may interest you while others may not, but they all at one point interested me so that’s why they’re posted. So again, feel free to visit any time.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Thank You and Good Night!




Before I leave this blog I just wanted to take a few minutes to thank all of you who have been helping me develop my new site. I know I've driven you crazy with all of the questions but your input has been invaluable and much appreciated. I know it took longer than I planned but I've been working really really hard developing my business sites (the money makers) and getting those up and running with lots of content and features. Funny, those were easier than the personal website and YES they are starting so show a nice little profit which was the plan all along. Plus, some of you know the situation with my father and the effects from that. Thank you all for the support through all of that. Your kindness and encouragement will NEVER be forgotten. I could not have asked to be a part of a more supportive and knowledgeable group of ladies and to all of my other friends in my circle, one more time, a big fat THANK YOU!!! Sooooo, I got my first personal entry up today (yeah, yeah, some of you have told me it's still a little puny looking content-wise) but I promise there is lots and lots more to come. I remember some of you workshop girlies telling me that personal sites (not blogs) were harder to develop than business sites and I didn't believe you...trust me, now I do. I promise NO MORE QUESTIONS!!! Well, for a while at least. Ok, I think that about covers it. I'm going to move some of my old content from here over, so just ignore those and hopefully I'll get one more entry up tonight as soon as the Braves game is over -11th inning, score tied 1-1 (I truly suck at multitasking). Well, I guess that's it. You all know where to find me. I'm going to leave this blog up for the time being, but there will be no more updates.

Take care and love you all!!!

First Book of 2011 - The 4 Hour Body - Timothy Ferriss

 I was very fortunate to receive a Kindle for Christmas this past year. It was a total surprise from my brother, Marc. This book is my very first purchase and I'm looking forward to reading it. 




In 2010 I read The 4 Hour Work Week and loved it. It really opened my eyes to the possibilities of not working 9-5 forever.




Product Description - 4 Hour Body

Thinner, bigger, faster, stronger... which 150 pages will you read?
Is it possible to:
Reach your genetic potential in 6 months?
Sleep 2 hours per day and perform better than on 8 hours?
Lose more fat than a marathoner by bingeing?
 
Indeed, and much more. This is not just another diet and fitness book.

The 4-Hour Body is the result of an obsessive quest, spanning more than a decade, to hack the human body. It contains the collective wisdom of hundreds of elite athletes, dozens of MDs, and thousands of hours of jaw-dropping personal experimentation. From Olympic training centers to black-market laboratories, from Silicon Valley to South Africa, Tim Ferriss, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The 4-Hour Workweek, fixated on one life-changing question:

For all things physical, what are the tiniest changes that produce the biggest results?

Thousands of tests later, this book contains the answers for both men and women.

From the gym to the bedroom, it’s all here, and it all works.


YOU WILL LEARN (in less than 30 minutes each):
How to lose those last 5-10 pounds (or 100+ pounds) with odd combinations of food and safe chemical cocktails.

* How to prevent fat gain while bingeing (X-mas, holidays, weekends)
* How to increase fat-loss 300% with a few bags of ice
* How Tim gained 34 pounds of muscle in 28 days, without steroids, and in four hours of total gym time
* How to sleep 2 hours per day and feel fully rested
* How to produce 15-minute female orgasms
* How to triple testosterone and double sperm count
* How to go from running 5 kilometers to 50 kilometers in 12 weeks
* How to reverse “permanent” injuries
* How to add 150+ pounds to your lifts in 6 months
* How to pay for a beach vacation with one hospital visit
       
And that's just the tip of the iceberg.  There are more than 50 topics covered, all with real-world experiments, many including more than 200 test subjects.

You don't need better genetics or more discipline. You need immediate results that compel you to continue.

That’s exactly what The 4-Hour Body delivers.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow...or I guess I should say ICE!

Sunday night Atlanta got between 3-6 inches of snow (depending on location) followed by 2-3 inches of ice on top of that. My office was closed both yesterday and today as are most things throughout the city. Temps aren't supposed to get above freezing for the rest of the week, so I'm not sure when I'll venture out. I'm perfectly happy being at home working on my content sites and just enjoying the quiet downtime. I've never understood people who have to be constantly "doing" something in order not to be bored. I've always enjoyed my own company and doing solitary things like reading, people-watching, etc. People who have to be constantly stimulated and entertained have always kind of bugged me, especially when I'm the person picked to do the entertaining. I guess I see it as a weakness, that some people have to always be busy and around other people in order to be happy. Whatever.

Back to the ice..the winter scenery is STUNNING!! I haven't ventured out because I have an aversion to falling and busting my ass, but from my windows it's gorgeous. I'll probably go out later and scrape my car, but for now I'm staying put. I was last out on Sunday, just to get gas and a Sunday paper and even the convenience stores were crowded. I have yet to figure out why the top 3 must-haves of any hint of snow are milk, bread, and toilet paper. Do people just sit around chugging milk, making toast and wiping their asses? I kinda see why northerners make fun of us so much when it snows. Butttt, it annoys me on other levels as well. I admit we arent' the best drivers in the snow, but seriously, how often does it really snow in the south? I'm sure if we had to do it more than 1 or 2 times a year, we'd be a whole lot better. Imagine doing anything once or twice a YEAR and expected to be as good as it as someone who does it day after day for months on end. I really don't think it's a fair comparison, especially when you factor in that we don't have the same equipment and manpower devoted to snow removal as our northern neighbors. It's not cost effective to purchase and maintain equipment that maybe will be used only a few times a year. Blah,blah,blah, I could go on and on, but I won't. People will always find something to complain about and make fun of, so I won't devote a lot of energy to it. I've got more productive stuff scheduled for today. Productivity is  but one of my mantras for the new year.
