This is a welcome post for AGO, my latest real life friend, myspace friend and co-worker. It is time for Darker Me to get some new happening friends! She is the first one, for now. Can’t just go grab people off the street, they must go thru a series of random tests.

Top 10: Manliest Moments from Man vs Wild (Note: I have nothing to do with that sentence).

Bear Grylls, the star of “Man vs. Wild” on the Discovery Channel, is under fire today for reportedly staying in hotels and having crews build things for him during the filming of his show, which is supposed to document him being dropped into some of the harshest environments in the world and showing viewers how to survive.

Following was my advice to this guy’s problem…

Women don’t understand! Even if they say they are, they don’t! SO, you have 2 choices…

1) DON’T propose! Get her involved in home building. Maybe you’ll start to hate her. There won’t be any marriage.

2) Listen to Eugene Hasenfus’s advice. Give her sumthin’ real to shut her piehole!

Keeping things light and carefree can be tricky when you’re up to your neck in some heavy business, but you can manage to do so with grace today. What’s the reason for your cool, calm and collected demeanor? Confidence, plain and simple. You know deep down in your gut that this project or task is going to go off without a hitch in the end. While others fret and worry, you can continue to picture the celebration you’ll have once it’s all over.

From my office…

NYC Midtown Steam Pipe Explosion 071807

Survived midtown NYC steam pipe explosion! I used to work close to 41st & Lexington, explosion location, once, not anymore. BUT smoke/steam was visible from my office @ 48th & 3rd. Took buncha pix from 45th floor window. Will post them on Flickr and on Google album tomorrow. Why both? Because Flickr considers me loose cannon, one MUST login to view my pix. Thus using Google album to share with people without yahoo ID. I could have posted pix today BUT used work camera AND I jumped out of work ASAP! I can’t afford to die, few people depend on me! Times likes this makes me appreciate living walking distance close to work. Too bad after July 28th I’ll be moving up to hood again. Additional stress! I’m used to it. Just bring it!

After getting the green light from the FCC just a couple of weeks ago, Research in Motion today officially took the wraps off the RIM BlackBerry 8820, the company’s first smart phone with integrated Wi-Fi. Available through AT&T Wireless later this summer, the 8820 supports 802.11a/b/g standards and is compliant with Wi-Fi security protocols, including WEP and WPA. In addition, the BlackBerry 8820 is the company’s thinnest full QWERTY device to date (beat it, BlackBerry Curve), and has built-in GPS for out-of-the-box support for location-based services such as TeleNav GPS Navigator.

IT Support people are the only so called “professionals” who still seem to do work for free. You can’t get your friends whether they are Doctors, Lawyers, Accountants or whatever to provide more than a general high level advice. Actually that goes for any of the trades also.
My professional friends when asked to do work suggest that you make an appointment to see them during business hours. This will be charged for and scares people off.

I like to think of guys at bars as telemarketers. Time is money, and the more time you spend listening to their spiel, the more guilty and attached you become. Also, that’s time that said guy could be spending talking to another (presumably more interested) girl. You think you’re being polite by spending all evening chatting with a guy you’re not into, but what you’re really doing is messing with his quota.

So what do you do? You learn how to reject. It’s grown-up, it’s empowering and it gets easier over time. A good rejection has two parts. The first part thanks the solicitor for their efforts, and the second issues the rejection in no uncertain terms, putting forth any additional rebuttals in a clear, consistent manner.

You didn’t fuck anything up, but you are being a little dense. I know the idea of a long, slow courtship sounds really refreshing, like an electric fan on a naked ass, post-shower on a summer day. But very few people have the time and energy to email their family and friends, let alone establish an email courtship with someone they’ve never met. A woman who’s about to leave the country is not one of them.

Reminds me of someone I used to work with.

Waist-hip ratio or Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is the ratio of the circumference of the waist to that of the hips. It measures the proportion by which fat is distributed around the torso. Scientists have discovered that the waist-hip ratio (WHR) is a significant factor in judging female attractiveness. Women with a 0.7 WHR (waist circumference that is 70% of the hip circumference) are invariably rated as more attractive by men, regardless of their culture. Such diverse beauty icons as Marilyn Monroe, Sophia Loren, Alessandra Ambrosio and even the Venus de Milo all have ratios around 0.7, even though they have different weights.
