Natural Squeezed Orange Juice

Ever since making natural squeezed orange juice and drinking a glass a day my complexion has looked, well, awesome. This never happened with store-bought juice. Stands to reason since they boil most of the vitamins out of it when they pasteurize it.

Reality Check for Single Women

I have a message to all single women. I'm filthy rich, can crack a walnut with my biceps, am actually ridiculously good looking under my glasses, am hung like a water buffalo, I never get tired of waiting outside a dressing room and holding a woman's purse, am 6 foot and really broad-shouldered, love to dance, an hour to me is foreplay, and I am always buying people really expensive gifts and traveling around the world and always having numerous adventures.

Oh, wait. That's not me. You know who that is, ladies? A rich, gay, philanthropist porn star, that's who.

See, this is what women expect when they watch too many Disney cartoons as a child and too much porn as an adult. They get grand illusions in their heads that truly aren't realistic and in no way, shape or form represent the common, everyday straight guy.

It's so sad. :(

Dreams are good for you!

Your body heals the most when you dream. It's a proven fact that during REM sleep your body can regenerate itself more than any other time. So when you dream a lot, it's actually a really good thing since that's what often happens during REM sleep. Ever since getting this new mattress I've dreamt every night and I feel freaking fantastic!

Obama Vs. Romney: The Presidential Race

Even though the economy didn't improve since his time in office, I think Obama has implemented a lot of programs that have helped those in need. Student loan holders got relief in a variety of ways if the loans were made under the Federal Government, and although many mock Obamacare, once it takes hold fully in 2014, you have no idea how many people that will help.

Basically, what it boils down to is this...

Beginning in January 2014, individuals under 65 years of age with income below 133 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL) will be eligible for Medicaid. For the first time ever, low-income adults without children will be guaranteed coverage through Medicaid in every state without need for a waiver, and parents of children will be eligible at a uniform income level across all states.


Right now, the only ones who are getting free healthcare are those with families or those considered disabled who are on Medicaid. For those single adults out there out of work or those who aren't working much and make diddly, if they get sick and can't afford health insurance, they're screwed.

If Romney gets in office, I can almost guarantee that Mr. Richy-rich is going to feel that's unneeded and try to repeal it.

In addition, there's the issue of gay rights, which Obama firmly supports and is making progress with, and Romney, I believe, is still stuck in the dark ages. With me having a gay brother, I do believe they should have the same rights as everyone else. Many other countries do, so why is this country so far behind?

Overall, it is quite possible that some of Romney's policies MAY, in fact, equal or exceed those of Obama's in some ways as time goes on, but the fact of the matter is...some of these things have already been made LAWS under Obama, and right now all Romney can do is make promises, and we all know how well promises are often kept in the White House once someone manages to get in.

Ebook on Nutrition!

I made a manual on nutrition and dieting (A cheapy little 99 cent thing) that I published a while back but for some silly reason I had taken it off sale, even though it was providing me with about 10-20 extra dollars a month just for having it up there. (Not a huge amount, but since I'm moving every little bit will help)

So I went through and edited it a little to perfect it and am now placing it back up for sale. It's in the processing stages at Amazon and Nook and Smashwords (Which distributes to Apple), and now I'm doing Google Play and then will advertise it on Goodreads. Be on the lookout for it. It's entitled "The Healthy and Happy Life Series: Food and Dieting, Emulating Nature to Achieve Weight Loss and Better Health."

Nook Link for Nutrition Book!

Here's the link for the Nook version. It's not terribly long, but I feel it's more than worth 99 cents as far as good advice goes. Other versions are coming soon once they finish processing.

Nutrition book for the Kindle!

Now available for the Kindle! And yes, it's brief, but it's one of those things that doesn't need a lot of words to get the point across.
