Feeding My Seeds 3

Brushing without flossing, is like showering without soap.
Your body is a temple. Your temple. Treat it as such.
If you run out of IT, just add water. Water stretches EVERYTHING.
The refrigerator is not a time machine. The freezer is.
Use 2 ply. No more than 3 squares at a time.
Paper towels do not flush.
Look like you're listening.
Read everything that comes through your hands.
If He brought you to it, He'll bring you through it.
Faith is nothing without works.
Get your hands dirty. Then wash them.
Patience builds character. Perseverance builds success.

In celebration of the return of great late night programming, I present to you...

More embedded videos.

You may or may not know that I love all things Conan O'Brien. The man can do no wrong. He's comedic genius in the likes of the writer's of the Office, 30 Rock, Chris Rock, Dave Chappele, Dane Cook (yes, Dane Cook) and Stephen Colbert. I could go on, but I won't.

Not only did he bring back Andy Richter, the underappreciacted and long-missed prodigal sidekick, but also Max Weinberg and the Weinberg 7. In addition, they've also added new weirdos and the salvaged the internets second favorite bear.

"Don't spit on that twit
Don't flush Twitter down the..."


And the highlight of the day, the new and improved, "In the year 3000". A certified classic Conan sketch revamped for relevancy. If you don't appreciate Richie the Trombonist's soothing falsetto, you don't appreciate the gift of hearing.

"In the year 3000...

Youtube, Twitter and Facebook will merge to form one super time wasting website called, 'YouTwitFace'."



Welcome back, old boy, and cheers to your your continued success.

The leg we're grounded in. This song remains Ye's best work to date. Glad to finally see a video. Not to mention, the ending was epic.

Some videos are so good that I wish I had a voice to the masses to force them to pay close attention. Without further ado.

Relax and take notes.
Always wash under the door handles. (Editor's note: In this case I'm talking about cars, but feel free to use this bit of advice in any realm of life. Take that for what it's worth.)
Males: When urinating in a public restroom, always angle your back to the door. Trust me.
Older people are not always smarter than you. Keep that in mind. Alternatively,, often older people have experience that lends them wisdom which goes a long way. You need to keep an open mind and remember that they were not always old, they've simply lived your life many times over at this stage, so more often than not they know what they're talking about. Listen.
You don't have to be social to be sociable. (Mental note: expand on this)
Write down your thoughts. You're going to have some great ones and forget some great ones many times over.
Keep that. You're going to wish you had later.

Feeding My Seeds

Things I must remember to teach my children:

Talk to the "little people."
Always lather off the top layer of soap before you start washing. Think about the last body part you washed in previous shower and the first body part you'll wash in your current shower. This does not apply when using body wash.
Tie your shoes tight when playing sports.
Think first, speak second.
Do something tangible.
Listen.
Do not share food, utensils or cups.
The 10 second rule does not apply unless you 1. Rinse off the food in question. 2.
Say, "God kiss it, devil miss it." 3. Never applies to gum.
Fish is a meat. As are eggs.
Never accept inferiority. Don't settle.
Reading is better than television.
Help people.
People > money.
Quality of life > things.
Towels can be used more than once.
Stretch.
Smile.
Write down your thoughts and date them. It will make sense later.
Never shake hands in the bathroom.

Hopefully I'll periodically add to these thoughts and look back on them when I need them.
