Nov 17 – Unfriend Day
17 NovFriends come and go but in this day and age of Facebook they linger in your friend’s list so you have to be the one to cut the rope.
Nov 16 – Int’l Games Day
17 NovWent to see some X Game BMX qualifiers and popped my NASCAR cherry while I was at it
Nov 14 – World Diabetes Day
14 NovMy dad has been Diabetic for my entire life, but he’s the sweetest man I know.
Nov 11 – Veteran’s Day
11 NovThis video is amazing. A homeless vet gets a makeover, but the fact that there’s so many homeless vets is sad. It speaks to the fact that you go fight for this country and then they give you nothing. The guy that killed Bin Laden is dead broke. No pension because he didn’t finish his call of duty. I appreciate the effort these guys do to keep us safe. Whatever that means because most of the time we are safe. I believe in the military industrial complex and that many wars are for profit rather than peace, but that’s a rabbit hole. For now watch this vid. It’s better than anything I could have put together and although a makeover isn’t enough to fix his problems, it’s a good start.
Nov 04 – King Tut Day
4 NovOk so this one may also be a stretch, but I’m replacing one legend for another. King tut was a legend and so was, well…John Legend. This is a performance from last night’s amazing concert.
Oct 31 – Halloween
31 OctFor my favorite holiday I stepped it up by actually breaking bad throughout the night as an homage to Mr White.
and the rest of my Halloween antics
Oct 29 – Internet, Oatmeal & Cat Day
29 OctSomehow the stars aligned and I was able to celebrate all three at once.
Also, this idea for Cat Day by Uber car services is just plain brilliant.

Oct 24 – Take Back Your Time Day
24 OctWhat if we could take back our time? Freeze a perfect moment and live in it forever? This beautiful film by Mark Slutsky tries to answer that.
In this case and in the case of my favorite movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, I always feel like the moral of the story is that everything is everything. Deleted memories or staying frozen in them isn’t what makes us human. Persevering and seeing our growth is what does.
