"Give more than you take. Do your best to leave every situation better than you found it. Seek beauty in all its forms. Chase dreams. Watch sunsets. Endeavor to use more than 10 percent of your brain. Don't stifle your deep-from-the-gut, cleansing laughter. Take a moment to ponder the enormity of the universe, then admit to yourself that you can't possibly be the center. Breathe deeply. Swim into the dark water. Let yourself cry when your body tells you to. Love more. Delight in silliness. Don't be bitter. Forgive. Forgive. Forgive."

Distinguish Yourself

If your an ambitious person or are determined to move ahead in life than I recommend the free e-book 25 WAYS TO DISTINGUISH YOURSELF by RAJESH SHETTY. It's only twenty seven pages but packed with gold nuggets of wisdom. It only took me about an hour or so to read so it isn't time consuming. Click HERE to download it.

Jordan

For over twenty years the AIR JORDAN brand has been know as much for their entertaining commercials as their slick expensive shoes. I love the new Legendary and Melo Engine campaign by the company.

Rated R Stand-up

Before you click the HERE link on this post, be warned that this video has a lot of swearing. The video is the half hour act of CARLOS MENCIA - a really funny comic who rants about race, celebrity and other trivial matters. Hey made me laugh out loud and hopefully you will do the same for you.

Flashing Lights

Just finished watching the video to KANYE WEST'S latest single FLASHING LIGHTS. Visually I found it impressive and the female (model RITA G) shows off her amazing curves but I honestly didn't get the point of the video. I don't know if he is coming out with a sequel or if there is more - I just don't know. If you get it them please feel free to explain it to me. Click HERE to view the video.

Viral

At work, in the newspaper and even while on the bus I've been hearing about the Sarah Silverman video on Jimmy Kimmel. It took me three days to finally search for it and watch it and now I understand what all the fuse is about. Click HERE to watch I'M F*UCKING MATT DAMON. The video's already received over 5 million hits on YOUTUBE. I've always like Damon, he's just a regular guy that isn't effected by his fame and knows how to have a good time.

William Earnest Henley

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
for my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance,
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance,
My head is bloodied, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishment the scroll.
I am the master of my fate;
I am the captain of my soul.
- INVICTUS BY WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY (1849 - 1903)

Ohhhhh

When it comes to sports I'm an emotinal guy. I yell at the television, jump out of the chair, and say yeahhhh whenever my team of choice scores. But when I saw this GOAL by UNIVERSITY OF NORTH DAKOTA forward EVAN TRUPP on SPORTSCENTRE a couple of days ago all I did was scream ohhhhhh. It has to be one of the best college hockey goals scored.

Superbowl

Finally after two weeks of waiting the SUPERBOWL is on tomorrow. After thinking about it long and hard, I'm putting my money on NEW ENGLAND. I've been a PATRIOTS fan for years but even I'm sick of them always winning. I like TOM BRADY and want him to cement his place in history with another championship and go down as one of the best ever.

Grand Central Stunt

Someone sent me the link to this VIDEO yesterday. God, I wish I was there when this happened. Over 200 people froze in the middle of Grand Central Station in New York as an improv stunt. Very creative idea and I'm sure those that witnessed it found it chilling. It looks like something out of a movie.
