Wake up to …. Spilled Coffee!!!
If you think that coffee wakes you up wait till it’s spilled. Yes it doesn’t matter whether it’s hot or even coffee a matter of fact but spill one drop and your adrenaline will bring you back to life more then 3 Espresso’s and those are doubles. I can’t say it will last as long as the Espresso’s will (unless you keep spilling) but it will definitely start the engine running. Spilling Coffee might not be the neediest trick to wake you up in the morning but it just might be the most effective. Further note the writer only advises professionals to attempt this move (lawyers note) and please bring napkins.

Justice Tilted
Today across America average Joe’s and Jane’s are being indicted for crimes they didn’t commit on flimsy evidence, that isn’t even thoroughly vetted, yet the former Secretary of State hasn’t even had a grand jury be called on damming evidence that builds up every day. It is true that Hillary Clinton might be innocent of a crime and everyone deserves their day in court before such judgement can be made but the court date should have been set already. We are supposed to be a country based on laws not people and therefore equal justice should be enforced. It’s ironic that the former Secretary claims she is a woman of the people when she is being treated as if she’s royalty by our justice system. It isn’t right for her supporters as well as our justice system for this charade to continue much longer the FBI must do it’s job now and see that Mrs. Clinton gets prosecuted for not doing her’s legally.

Taco Bell- Brilliant
Taco Bell has turned the lights on with an incredible marketing campaign that shut out it’s competition. It is offering a new surprise item that will be revealed on Superbowl Sunday but to make the marketing even more brilliant you can pre-order this item and taste it 2 days before the big event. This marketing ploy will build suspense better then most horror movies could do today and with the pre-order (see link) it will build sales before it’s even launched (not to mention prestige for the first bites). The Superbowl might be big but Taco Bell’s marketing campaign has truly scored the winning touchdown.

Martian wins the Oscar…..
And the Oscar’s goes to “The Martian” for ….. best sound mixing. This is the obvious choice with the late David Bowie’s song playing in the background. Sorry it doesn’t deserve best film for it’s very predictable and the characters haven’t been drawn out enough. The jokes are so bad that you would have thought they were written by a scientist (sorry scientists) . It also feels as if your in a Mad Science class that you didn’t study for, in which I would have definitely failed. The depth of the script and action was better then I expected though with incredible visual effects probably another Oscar win. I could also reasonable expect the film to win Best Cinematography and probably Matt Damon will win Best Actor. In closing “The Martian” was better then I expected yet didn’t achieve the Oscar Gold.
*** 1/2 Stars for “The Martian”

Frederick Douglas great American but….
Frederick Douglas was a great American who fought for basic freedom and dignity for all American’s but had a terrible barber. I know this is quite a superficial look at such a wonderful historic figure in American History but appearances do matter and now even his Doodle has the same problem. His hair makes Donald Trumps hair look real. There must have been a good day for Frederick Douglas and his hair and I believe even if we have to bend history a bit let’s do something with this hair. To conclude Frederick Douglas is a great man who we should take pride in and even emulate except with the stuff growing from his head.

Manhattan Island
Lately my trip to Manhattan has felt as if I was visiting an Island far, far away. For what normally is a 45 minute ride has become two hours full of mazes and bumper to bumper traffic. Where roads are all of a sudden closed and people are steered down one small road as if they were cattle in a rodeo. The exhausting trip is still worth embarking on if you have a loved one to visit or want to see some of the worlds most interesting stores, restaurants and sites but be prepared for the long haul for this trip to Manhattan might still take your breath away and your patience as well.

Boko Haram burns children- Pit of Evil
Boko Haram has burned children alive in a despicable vile act that killed at least 86 civilians. These Islamic Extremist groups (including ISIS) have performed such hideous acts that the world hasn’t witnessed since the Nazi’s controlled Germany. What is pathetic is they claim in some way that this is the will of G-D when their acts proof that is the act of Satan instead. For G-D has brought every human life into being and who can say they are acted in G-D’s behalf by extinguishing an innocent light. Boko Haram, ISIS and other Islamic Extremist groups must be eliminated from the civilized worlds even in areas that might not be as civilized as we like.
