My 4 year-old-nephew can focus better than him, and he has hard time concentrating.

Asian ladies, no need to cover the sun to avoid getting tan, there is hope

This is Sammy Sosa. He was most famous for trying to break the MLB home run record that stood for 37 years while under the help of something that rhymes with android.

The photo on the left was taken earlier in 2009, and the one on the right was taken in November 2009. Does he remind you a little bit of Michael Jackson? He claimed that he was using a lotion in conjunction with cosmetic skin peel to rejuvenate his skin, but to the mass public, it whitens it more than it rejuvenates.

Whatever it is, Asian ladies and those who want to achieve that Twilight pale look should start booking with Sammy's spa and dermatologist. IT REALLY WORKS. JUST LOOK AT GOOD OL' SAMMY!

Do you, um... you know, know what verbal crutches are?

 
Have you ever noticed many people use the word fillers like "you know", "um", "like" and "so"? In the above clip, if the poster did not call out the excess use of "you know," would you have noticed that? All of these bridging words are all called VERBAL CRUTCHES.

I for one, is an offender of this terrible terrible verbal disease. In fact, I just talked to a Clipeprs ticket salesman, and during the conversation, I repeated said "you know." In my mind, I knew I was saying it, but it just felt so good that I could not stop. It's like when your mother put a cake on the counter, you KNOW you have to stick your finger in it to steal a bite.

Verbal Crutches has reached to a pandemic level and it has to stop before it becomes an epidemic, aka Swine Flu. I sound not only, on certain level, un-educated, and I do think this could be something major that will hinder my career when I give speeches to young'ns about somethings I will do down the line, such as me  becoming an astronaut or a stand up comedian.

A fresh re-start

I'm gonna restart this little site that I used to use as a gateway to communicate with myself.
