Liberty Mutual
Here I was watching American Idol on Tivo and about to scan through the commercials as I normally do but I was surfing the web so a Liberty Mutual commercial started playing. I really liked the music they used for the spot so I decided not to skip it. I then got hooked into the…
American Beauty
Since we just experienced the Oscars, it got me to thinking of the Best Picture winner from 10 years ago (1999), American Beauty. I remember not liking it much the first time I saw it. I thought it was so violent and so negative and disturbing. However, after time passed and I let it settle…
Laugh Think Cry
I can’t believe it’s been so long since the late great Jim Valvano gave his unforgettable speech at the ESPY awards in 1993! I remember watching it at the time and how much he made me laugh, think and cry, the three things he said we should do every day in order to experience a…
My Friends My Friends
I’ve always loved Eddie Money’s “My Friends, My Friends” but more so lately than ever before because of all the old friends that I’ve been reconnecting with online. It’s been such a shock to the system realizing how much time has flown by since the last time I saw my friends. I plan to make…

Thanksgiving is almost here and the past several days online has had a common theme for me. Everywhere I turned, the subject matter of homelessness. It started when I shared a great article called “Famous People Who Have Been Homeless”. It was an inspirational piece because it showed how anybody, even powerful rich famous people…
Crazy Sexy Cancer
Crazy Sexy Cancer is the incredibly inspiring documentary by Kris Carr about her courageous battle against a rare form of cancer in her liver. It’s a touching and even funny look at the way she’s fighting cancer. It premiered on TLC and Discovery Healthy in the Fall of 2007 but she was actually diagnosed in…
