I was just reading an article that suggested that the divorce rate was higher if a couple lived together before marriage.

The article suggested that although the divorce rate was higher for those who lived together first, factors like children and other people living in the home played into the divorce rates.  So the author of the article was pointing out that a couple may actually be better off to live together first.  Here is the link:  Link

Would you ever give serious consideration to living with a person before you married him/her?

Rep. Barney Frank wants to end federal penalties for marijuana users as long as they have less than 100 grams of marijuana.  Here is the link:  Link

NASA is doing a bed rest study and they are paying participants to stay in bed for three months.

A school in Texas has made national news because it will make students wear a “prison-like” jumpsuit if they break the dress code.

It is funny to watch how quickly some people go into text speech.

You can have an intelligent individual who writes well thought out posts and all of a sudden you talk to that same person on IM and he/she goes into a texting mode.

“hw u doiN Dan?  wauu2 2day?”

But I noticed that recently that I have at times not capitalized letters during certain IM conversations that should be capitalized.

Have you been impacted by text speech?

Add me on Facebook and catch me on Facebook IM sometime.

Lifestyles Condoms is saying they want Miley Cyrus to be a spokesgirl for them.

The company has said that they offered her $1 million to act as a spokesgirl for them.  They said “We believe

Miley is both influential and
relatable to this afflicted set — and is the obvious choice to get the
message of safe sex out to teens across America.”

A rep of Miley Cyrus said they had never received an offer.  Here is the link:  Link

On the one hand, she would influence a lot of young people.  On the other hand, she is only 15 years old.

Do you think Miley Cyrus is too young to be a spokesperson for a Lifestyles Condoms?

I hope I am not the only guy that is excited about the makeup designed for men.





It is happening in the UK which means it is going to be popular here in the U.S. soon.  The cosmetics are not for transvestites.  “These days you can be macho and wear make-up.”

If you think about it, men are shaving their chest now.  They are having their eyebrows waxed.  They are having their nails done.  This is just a great way to add a little darkness to their eye lashes.  Here is the link:  Link

Guys are starting to pay attention more to their appearance.

Do you think we are slowly making our men into women?
