Your clothing says a lot about you … especially in a catty work environment!
And unless your job requires a uniform, choosing the right things to wear for work can be pretty difficult (I get this … really I do). What should you wear if you work in an industry where there really isn’t a typical style of dress (like most jobs nowadays)? Or if you actually work at a cool job that lets you rock the casual attire look? How do you keep from crossing that fine line in between casual and “do not wear that ever again”? Sure, you want to look professional, right? But then again, you also want to “fit in”? What to do? What to do? Read on, that’s what to do!
Did you know that you should dress how you want to be treated at work? It’s true! If you don’t dress seriously, you’re never going to be taken seriously (most experts will tell you this). Dress smartly and neatly, and you’re more likely to be treated in a professional manner (they’ll also tell you this). Now even though there are a ton of fashion sites out there who are saying these exact same things, most of them aren’t giving you this following little tidbit of valuable info: What never, never, never should be worn to work – period (under any circumstances): Continued

Has anyone, over the age of 18, noticed that the music out there today is complete and utter trash?
Seriously, I can’t think of any new songs that move me, and that’s just freaking sad to fathom! To be fair, poppy Top 40 s@#t has always sucked, AND it always will. Nowadays, however, even rock, rap and country can’t get “it” together. Musicians have lost their souls; it’s all about selling an image anymore, and that’s not what “real” music is all about! Real music is supposed to make you think about life … not about how much money some crappy band makes, or how cute of a lead vocalist the corporations can hire (some of the greatest singers in the world were ugly as f@#k … but they sang their asses off to make up for this shortcoming. Now, it’s the complete opposite)! Only a handful of artists are bringing anything original to the plate (without sampling classics, of course). Today, it all sounds the same, and there’s a sad reason for this: corporate bastards have taken the wheel, not the musicians! Continued

I hate to be a d@#k about things, but if a thief ever breaks into my house while I’m home their (you know what) will be grass — period!

Do you know why? Well, it’s because I have a right, just like every other American does, to own a handgun and to keep it in my house to protect my family when this kind of greedy nonsense goes down! Does this make me a gun nut (a really stupid term that the far-too-left liberals have been throwing around like candy for at least a couple of decades now)? No … actually it doesn’t! Does it mean that I believe in regular citizens owning an Uzi or AK-47? Hells no (that’s way too much gun for most people)!
You see, I don’t think this is what our founding fathers had in mind when they sat around the tavern table discussing our future right to bear arms! However, I can pretty much guarantee that they didn’t talk about low-life drug dealers (or anyone else who has had a cameo appearance on Cops [bad boy, bay boys … whatcha’ gonna do?]) or crazy a-holes who like to run into schools and reenact some phony bulls@#t they just saw in a cowboy shoot-em-up! This is not what gun-ownership is all about people, and its jag-offs like these type of idiots who are giving us regular gun owners a bad rap!
So for those who have never held a cold steel, protector-of-life in their hands, let me tell you what you need to do before this will ever happen … Continued

If you haven’t heard yet, we’re smack dab in the middle of a recession (smell the sarcasm?)!
It’s blaring all over the airwaves, and a bunch of people are making a lot of money off of scaring the living daylights out of you! First you have the media, who’s doing what they always do: turning mountains out of molehills! Then you have the financial system, whose making their money on both the highs and lows of this predicament. Then there’s the late stragglers: the scam artists and the regular folks with greedy dollars signs in their eyes, who got in late and which, coincidentally are unwittingly marking a beginning to the end of this downward cycle (good news for the rest of us: these late people always lose their shirts — always!).
For my part, I’m inviting everyone over, free of charge, to help celebrate the fact that Americans can endure anything, once they call out “Bulls$#t” to all those who Bulls$#t us! Before you enter though, why not pick up some of the following deals along the way? Continued

Ah vacations … what would we do without them, right? I’ll tell you what we’d do: we’d lose our ever-loving minds — that’s what we’d do!
I’m so looking forward to taking a break this February for my wedding in the Keys. Instead of flying down like everyone in our family will be doing, we will be driving from Boca Raton to the lowest point in the Continental U.S.: a place that will forever be known (thanks to Jimmy Buffett’s drunken ass) as “Margaritaville”. On a serious side note: it is the coolest destination spot on the planet Earth — bar none and GUARANTEED!
What I will offer you now is some sage advice that is sure to save you a ton of money on practically any vacation you will ever take (note: I won’t be cheesy like the travel websites that tell you how to get a cheap hotel room or half-priced car rentals, because that’s not what I’m all about: lying to people) but if you really want to do it “right” why not watch the sun go down in the most relaxing city known to man, and stop taking those week-ass vacations to the Jersey Shore or Vegas again (like all of your other boring neighbors are doing on the first day of summer)? Anyway, here are the tips that I was talking about earlier: Continued
