Blog Post for Friday: Deep Conditioning / My Own Concoction

Washed my hair this evening. Oh, I love washing it too much. Yet, I have to. I work out daily. And who wants to be engaging with people with a stinky head? It’s so not cool. I made up a deep conditioning concoction. Made my hair so soft and smooth. Ummm. My hair loves oil [...]

Blog Post for Friday: The Pe(s)t

My cat is a 16 pound guy (pest) who tells me when it is time to eat. In case I don’t get the message, he will glare at me for an hour or so. This will be followed by knocking over things to get my attention. Should that fail he’ll approach, and try to bite [...]

Blog Post for Friday: Useless Blogging Advice

Rules I read a while ago. What was funny is that some of the most successful blogs break all these rules. Blog consistently. Every day. Every other day. One must blog all the time. Blogging about pets is a no-no. Blogging about babies is a no-no. Blogging about one topic all-the-time is a no-no. Blogging [...]

Natural hair: Follow the leader method by FamilyGoingNatural

Oh, she is so correct. I understand that women are trying to find out what works for their hair, but it is like some don’t understand – keep it simple. If it feels “coarse” there may not be a product that softens it up, but if there is it shouldn’t be something harsh. A gradual [...]

The George Costanza Method

One of my all-time favorite shows, when I bother to contemplate and can recall it, is Seinfeld. In the beginning, when it was the Seinfeld Chronicles, I used to wonder how long it would last before NBC killed it. It was incredibly funny in a New York area inside-joke kind of way. In the beginning, [...]

Hair: Length Check and Bantu Knots

Note: My hair type is 4a-z, nappy, kinky, coily, cottony, soft, fine, moderately thick, and very very delicate. Time to check the hair length again! It grows so slow now-a-days. I’m still trying to figure out where that growth spurt a couple of years ago was due to. I had to cut off 1/2 an [...]

Business Failures: Contempt for Customers

The number 1 reason why businesses fail: contempt for customers, often translated and dressed up as falling sales, or loss of revenue. It probably used to take over 10, maybe even 50 years, before it completely collapsed, but today I don’t think that is feasible. Word of mouth travels too fast today. Companies can spend [...]

If the Media Goes Away, Is That Such a Bad Thing?

According to the New York Times today: Millions of households will lose television reception next week when about 1,000 broadcasters around the nation shut off their analog signals and complete their conversion to digital programming, federal officials say. And my response is, “Yay!” Intelligence Quotients may rise. People will rediscover that they can have a [...]

Life Style: Switching Up Routines

Time Flies It is one thing to schedule events to keep the self busy, it is another to make sure they serve some purpose. Going out for the sake of going out can be a rather aimless waste of time as well. Ever notice how everything happens at once? You get a phone call on [...]

Remember "Total Recall"? Coming Soon, Robotic Bus Drivers and Cabbies

If you ever saw this movie, and since I love Sci-Fi, so yes, I have, this was one of my favorite scenes. Well, the future is coming sooner than you think. The video clip of a mini-cab, minus the cab driver. I think robot should be included, just to enrich the experience. Look, Ma! No [...]

Braindump Thursday: It’s June Already?

Goal Setting I feel like I am behind the curve, or far from the goal posts. I always have a couple of goals I want to achieve, but I’m not even half way there, and half the year is almost gone! Tweets I signed up for Twitter.com, although for the life of me, I still [...]
