Not an Ass Hole

There are various important topics that require serious discussion. Rarely do you come across serious topics examined through humour. This video is one of the best I have seen and definitely resonates with me. Not sure why?? A must see and shared.

VERY IMPORTANT

Early childhood education is vitally important to our children. How will our children grow and develop and turn out as adults? At what age do we begin this education? Many educators believe that the baby can already appreciate music while still in the womb. Do we educate our children through the Reggio stream? Or perhaps Montessori or even Waldorf? What about Nature vs Nurture, which makes the greatest impression on our children? Whatever your belief in your child's early education the attached video is a must if you want your child to become an important contributor to society with an appreciation for all things good.

Pull down your pants and enjoy the ride.

Life has its ups and its downs. Everything does not always go your way and much is completely out of your control. Recognizing this leads to only one conclusion, when you have a chance to take a few minutes to yourself, pull down your pants, slide on the ice and enjoy the ride. Maybe treat yourself to a great meal or watch a great game, but learn from nature. Life's great moments need to be savoured. Go Steelers!!

Big Brother

We all talk about BIG BROTHER. There are cameras everywhere as our personal lives are more and more being monitored. All you need to do is watch TV or go to movies to appreciate to what extent big brother could be watching. Is this a good thing?  Arguable! Take a look at the attached video, it may change your views. Or at least open your eyes.

Conferences

I have been on many business conferences over the years. I always like a good "session" at these conferences, especially one with 18 holes. But I think we should be honest, these conferences are merely a great perk for staff to enjoy a few days off with colleagues in a nice, fun and hopefully warm location. Is it a team building experience? Possibly. Can the same benefits be achieved at a local pub? Probably. I still like the concept and support the idea given the right time and place. I would however rid the conference of any work related agendas and only push the fun factor. Looking forward to 2017.

Holiday to Remember

 When my son was about 10 years old I picked him up from school at lunch time and told him that he had a dentist appointment. We then went fishing for the remainder of the day. 20 years later he still talks about it. 
Do something memorable with your family this holiday. For dinner one night maybe serve only ice cream and treats. You will remember it for years to come. Ask the kids what they want to do that is special and just do it.
 Go to the movies and dress up in character or just dress up for fun. The reaction of others will be priceless.
Take the family out to dinner in Bermuda shorts and shirts in the dead of winter.
Go trick or treating in full costume on your street in December.
Whatever you do, have fun these holidays and "live out of the Box".

Breathtaking

Remember the Seinfeld episode with the breathtaking baby? I wonder if every parent thinks their baby is beautiful. I would hope so. Love is blind. But what happens if your baby really isn't too cute? What if your baby looks like Danny DeVito? Yikes!                                                       
                                                                   Breathtaking!!
