Much Classier Than The Previous
Matt Ryan, welcome to Atlanta!
You’re a breath of fresh air after that last “franchise quarterback” we had. Hope he was able to watch the NFL draft from his cell.
Atlanta needs you Mr. Ryan. Welcome aboard!
When Cheerleaders Attack
April 26th, 2008When Cheerleaders Attack
Actually, That’s Not So Bad
Oh no, the cheerleaders are attacking!
Wait… I’ve been waiting my whole life for this to happen. If you’re going to be attacked by anything, it should definitely be cheerleaders. You’ll know when you’ve been hit by this hot cheery bunch.
You can also set the sexy Squad81 Cheerleaders from Company 81 loose on your unsuspecting friends as well. Just visit their website and enter your friend’s email address. It will be the most pleasant attack they’ve ever been subjected to!
Be sure to check out the Company 81 product line, and enter the sweepstakes competition while you’re there for a chance to have the girls pay you a personal visit, along with a whole new wardrobe!
Diners, Drive-ins and Dives

Food Network Is Making Me Fat
I’m convinced that Food Network’s Diners, Drive-ins and Dives is directly responsible for about 15 pounds of my extra weight.
You know the show… The one staring Guy Fieri - where he drives around the country and visits, well, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. During each visit we get to witness 15-inch chilidogs, 5-pound cheeseburgers, eggs fried every way imaginable, and practically anything and everything that can be smothered with melted cheese, and/or deep fried.
Man, I love this show.
The problem is, it’s usually on TV around midnight when I catch it. And that’s also around the time I start getting hungry. Being a little bit hungry while watching this show is very dangerous.
Usually by the first commercial break I’m in the kitchen, trying to dig up something fattening. Sadly, I usually find something to satisfy my appetite, at the expense of my weight.
But I never find anything that looks quite as good as what I’m seeing at the diners.
One thing is for sure, Guy Fieri has the most excellent job in the world.
Wholesale Products
April 25th, 2008Wholesale Products
Excellent Pricing
OK, I really hate to be the bearer of bad news, but someone needs to break this to you… You should probably sit down.
The American economy isn’t doing so well.
If you’re an entrepreneur searching for a way to earn some money, or a small business looking for a way to reduce costs as well as find a new revenue stream, then wholesale products could be exactly what you need.
Anyone can purchase wholesale products at incredibly low prices from DollarDays.com. There are no minimums!
These products are sold by the case – perfect for smaller retailers or online auction sellers who have limited room for inventory, or limited capital for huge, bulk, orders.
Some of the most profitable businesses in this country were formed during downturns in the economy. Are you going to let this one pass you by?
Death
April 25th, 2008Death
It’s All In How You Get There
On my way home from work today the news guy on the radio was reporting about a swimmer in southern California who was killed by a great white shark.
The news guy said how it “was a horrible way to die”.
As I listened to him I thought to myself, aren’t all ways to die “horrible”? I mean, is there really a “good” or “pleasant” way to die?
OK, I guess you could die while making love, or after taking some mind-altering drugs. I suppose either of those could be “less-horrible”, but the end result is still the same… You’re dead. That’s really the horrible part. Not how you get there.
I’m sure being chewed in half by a great white shark is painful. Or, maybe not since our bodies generally don’t feel pain at the time of the injury. For the sake of argument though, we’ll assume it’s painful.
But the pain only lasts until death arrives. And at that point, did the pain even matter? Surely not to the dead guy.
Disaster Recovery
April 25th, 2008Disaster Recovery
Can You Sleep At Night?
Recently I commented about the importance of data backups for individuals. With the amount of irreplaceable data out there, backups are absolutely essential.
When we begin talking about business data and systems, a good recovery plan is exponentially more important. Not only could you lose your data, you could lose your entire business.
Likewise, businesses not only need data backups, but entire disaster recovery plans. Along with those backups you need computer systems, business applications, and an alternate facility from which you can run your business if the disaster warrants it.
Where do businesses go to begin their contingency planning? Rothstein Associates provides companies of all sizes disaster recovery services and consulting expertise. They offer everything from books and software to full consulting services.
Is your business prepared for disaster?
Are you sure?
Stimulating Packages
April 25th, 2008Stimulating Packages
The Downward Spiral
So, the economic stimulus tax rebates are on their way. Make sure you fasten your seat belts because the economy is suddenly going to take off like a rocket!
Yeah, right…
Most people will use this “rebate” to pay bills. Others might save it. And I’m sure a very large portion of it will end up in the hands of the oil companies.
And those who decide to go ahead and spend this money - what do you think they’ll be buying?
Chances are it will be a Japanese televison or video game system. Maybe a Japanese camera, or a Chinese-made iPod.
Excuse me, this is going to help the economy how?
I’m not hurting for money, and don’t really need this rebate. Maybe I’ll donate mine to the Get The Fuck Out Of Iraq Fund. In my opinion, there’s no better way to help the American economy right now.
As of this writing, the war in Iraq has cost American taxpayers $514,286,975,551. This increases by approximately $341,000,000 per day.
I’m not “anti-war”. I’m not even “anti-Iraqi-war”. But the time has come where the cost in human lives and American dollars is far greater than the return on investment.

Christianity

What Is It?
Christianity: The belief that some cosmic Jewish Zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.
Makes perfect sense.
Wax On, Wax Off
April 24th, 2008Wax On, Wax Off
Go For Quality
There are a few things I never let someone else do to my vehicles if I can avoid it. And they are two of the easiest maintenance tasks to perform. Oil changes and detailing.
The fact that they are easy is exactly the reason I don’t trust others to perform the work. If you need a transmission replaced, or some troubleshooting on the electrical system, chances are a qualified automotive technician will be assigned the task.
But, oil changes? This is usually assigned to some high school kid.
Detailing? I’ve yet to find a detailer that speaks English.
I apply a high quality car wax twice each year, just before summer and just before winter. This has proven to work well, and protects the finish during the two harshest seasons. And by using only quality Lane’s Professional Car products I can be assured that protection will last between applications.
By detailing my vehicle myself, I know that only quality products are being used, no shortcuts have been taken, and no spots have been missed.
Now, if I could just keep the birds from using it for target practice…
