Mini Mall on Jay Leno

If you watched Jay Walking on the Tonight Show last night you might have spotted a familiar character. The guy that does the Montgomery Mini Mall Rap was the first person that Jay Leno spoke to.

I thought the guy looked familiar and when he said he was from Montgomery, AL. I knew instantly. pretty funny.

I wonder if the Tonight Show knew that they were talking to a You Tube Celebrity?

come on lets do this dance...
To the left
To the Right
Its just like...its just like, a Mini-Mall...

If you are clueless about the Mini-Mall rap, you should goto You Tube and search for it. Its a pretty funny commercial. There's even some fan base out on the internet on similar commericals. Just another great use of the internet.

2005 NHL Lockout

On February 16, 2005:

Game Off! NHL Cancels Remainder of Season

By IRA PODELL, AP Sports Writer

NEW YORK - The NHL canceled what little was left of the season Wednesday after a series of last-minute offers were rejected on the final day of negotiations.

A lockout over a salary cap shut down the game before it ever got a chance to start in October. Now the NHL, already low on the popularity scale in the United States, becomes the first major pro sports league in North America to lose an entire season to a labor dispute.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all my weekly readers!

I am looking forward to an exciting and adventure year. I hope everyone has a prosperous and fun 2007!

If weight loss is on your New Years Resolution, I would highly recomended going to Weight Watchers. Don't be discourage when you go this week when there are long lines. This is normal, and by the second and third week most people will drop out. However, you should stay with the program for at least a couple of months.

Making a weight lost change takes time, don't expect to see dramatic weight loss in a week. You will loose weight, its a matter of time and commitment. Goto Weight Watchers and think positive and think success. You can do it!

Have a great year, and I'll see you at the Top!

35 Pounds!

Yesterday I weighed in at Weight Watchers and have now lost a total of 35 pounds!

If you Google 35 Pounds, you'll see that other people have lost the same amount of weight, or at least have it as a goal.

What am I doing to loose that weight? What's the big secret? Well I attribute my success to:

Drinking lots of Water
I don't drink much soda any more, anytime that I am thirsty I get some water.

Watch what I eat
Using Weight Watcher's point system its easy to track what you eat. You can still eat at McDonalds and Burger King, but you can't go every day. Don't ever order the supersize meal, no matter how hungry you are! Its not worth it!

Exercise
I don't have a gym membership, yet. Instead, I usually park far away from the shopping center, walk up the stairs at work, and just do a lot more movement than before. Key word is MOVEMENT!

Don't go alone!
Going to Weight Watcher's with someone is a good idea. Its even better if you see them every day. Having someone else along for the ride makes the journey fun and enjoyable.
