Bat Signal....Kinda dark

So Teresa and I popped out to Best Buy
last night at 11:45 to get the new Dark
Knight DVD. They had a Bat Signal
shining on the wall (and it was misting).
very Gotham-ish and moody.

Only 20 Best Buys in the country were
open at midnight for the sale. I think
some Walmarts and Blockbusters were
having midnight sales last night too. I was
genuinely shocked when we got there,
There were already about 50 people in
line.

And another 100 or showed up to get
in line behind us. The Geek Nation is
alive and well.

After watching the movie again today
I was again in awe at Heath Ledger and
his performance. Poor guy.

Now I wasn’t even very interested in
this movie when it came out. When
I heard Ledger was cast for the part
I was apathetic. The Brokeback Mountain
guy? Really? Truthfully, I had never
seen one of his movies.

But the guy nailed it. Stole the show.
And it’s a bummer we’ll never see
him act again. His performance is
worthy of an Oscar.

This is one of those rare times in
entertainment when the hype is justified.
Must be what it was like when the
Beatles were around. Yes they were
THAT good and deserving of their
praise.

It’s truly a shame that he was suffering
from depression and insomnia so much
that he had to rely on a veritable pharmacy
to live.

I’m not saying that medicine isn’t necessary
some of the time. But the crap the pharmas
put out there is poison most of the time.

And then they have the gall to advertise
it on TV so you go request it from your
doctor. Plus they just make crap up…
Restless Leg Syndrome?? You gotta be
kidding me. They just make stuff up and
then get inside your head to try and convince
you that you need that junk.

I could make a list of all the drugs but
honestly they are all spam words
and this email wouldn’t get through.

And they all have side effects you
wouldn’t believe. Acid reflux pills
are brutal on a man’s pros-tate and
decrease bone density. The sleeping
pills can often cause….ready for it…
depression. Nice.

And the doctors get a kickback when
they prescribe stuff…no one will admit it but
these phramas pay for retreats and
vacations all the time in the hopes of
getting more prescriptions filled.

Don’t get me started. And the
cost of these drugs? Wanna talk
about the rising cost of health
care? Man..let’s not get started.

If you can’t sleep or if you have “restless
legs” or have constant acid reflux–how
about this?

Get some exercise for pete sake.
Make a change in your diet. Eat
a banana because you don’t have
any potassium and that makes your
legs ache.

Stop eating grease and drinking giant
cokes by the gallon that are loaded with
HFCS and caffeine. Duh. No wonder you
can’t sleep.

And do some Deep Breathing first.
The harsh drug should be the LAST choice,
not the first. Do some other stuff first.
Don’t be so lazy. Actually make an
effort to change some stuff. Not all at
once of course.

But start with some Deep Breathing.
In a couple weeks, trying cutting down
on cokes. Just one a day if you drink
tons, Then one every other day. Then
one a week as a treat.

Go out for a 20 minute walk once a
week. Then twice a week. Ease into it.

And always Deep Breathe. If you can’t
sleep try the Buzzing Bee for 5
minutes. You’ll be out like a light.

Don’t rely on yet another pill that will
solve one problem while it creates 3 others.

Until next time. Keep Breathing,

On The Pike Place Pig--With Coffee

Well we got to Seatte on

Teresa, A Salmon and A Fish Thrower

I miss ya, buddy.

Well today was a bit of a
rough day. I had to put my
cat to sleep and man is that
a bummer.

Now, for those of you with pets,
you can relate. They enrich our
lives and make us live longer.
Seriously..it’s a proven scientific
fact. pet owners live longer.

The bitch is when their time has
come. Anyone who has been through
this knows what I’m talking about.
Putting a pet to sleep is gut wrenching
and I cried like a girl today. What can
I say.

Jake has been with me for over 17 years
so I can’t really complain. I went through
the same thing when his brother Elwood
got sick about 5 years ago. (5 points for
anyone who gets the reference). But it sure
doesn’t get any any easier, that trip to the
vet.

So that was the bad part of the day. But
shed no tears..I know if you’ve had a pet
you’ve loved and lost, I have brought up
some bittersweet feelings.

The good part of the day is that my
website for my other business is
finally up and running.

I have been working on this for a
few weeks now and it is officially
“a go.”

Now in the past, I know I have hinted
around at my “other business” and so
forth. And many of you have asked me
about it and how I do it,

So today, I’m gonna let you have a peak
at my other side, so to speak. Have a look
if you’re interested.

http://concealedcash.com/

I have a Phree CD offer for anyone who
is interested. And it even comes with 6
awesome bonuses.

Teresa and I will be traveling the next
few days so I’ll try and write and tell
you how it’s going and post some
pics at the blog.

Talk to you soon. And until next time,
Keep Breathing.

Bleeding Hearts & Wingnuts

Well I am excited about today. Finally
the wait is over and I am so excited.

See I am a huge Batman fan and one
of the greatest interpretations of the
Dark Knight was the Animated Series
that ran from 1992-1997. And today
Warner Brothers is finally releasing
the Complete Collection of this series
along with extras.

Now even though I own all 4 seasons
of the show I still have to get this.
I’ll keep the old season sets for loaners
or sell them on eBay. And probably
get most of the munny to pay for the
Complete set. I love eBay.

Also, the new Futurama movie comes
out today..I’m a bit of an animation buff
too.

Why? Is something else going on today?
Did you think I was going to mention
something else?

Well truth be told I’m glad this 4 year
election campaign is finally over, The
only problem is, I read an article online
that said the race for 2012 begins on
November 5th. Ugh.

Just remember this, if nothing else.
Your success and happiness are up
to you. Government pretty much suxx.
Always had and always will.

Government is never the solution. It
is almost always the problem.

This election today may be an electoral
blowout. And the guy who gets the most
votes may not win. All is possible.

And I personally have some weird vibes
about tonight and  tomorrow….not trying
to freak you out but if you read around you’ll see
that police departments in every major
city have beefed up for tonight and the
National Guard is on alert and has been
shuffling around. Apparently I;m not the
only one catching the weird vibes.

And keep in mind that fully 50% of the
people you encounter tomorrow are
not going to be happy.

The votes will be about 50.1% vs 49.9%
Regardless of what the news says, the
new guy ain’t gonna have a mandate
I can assure you.

All I can say is relax, do some Deep
Breathing and center yourself. Prayer
and meditation are always encouraged.

Do some Full Body Breaths with Muscle
Locks. About 9 to start out with. Then
move up to 18. 27 and so on.

http://www.fearlessbreathing.com

You’ll find them on the Secrets of Better
Breathing DVD Course. You should
garb it now. It won’t be there by tomorrow
but you’ll have it in plenty of time for
the holidays…might need it then too,

Until next time. Keep breathing,

The Wii Fit...Very Impressive

Teresa bought a Wii the day it
came out a couple years ago.
She was in Miami at the time and
somehow had no trouble finding
one.

Anyway, I’m not a video game junkie
but I do enjoy some Nintendo now
and then,

What’s great (and revolutionary) about
the Wii is that many of the games are
designed to get you off your butt.

I have literally broken out in a sweat
playing Wii Sports, the game that
comes with it. You can get winded
playing the bowling or the golf. And
you will definitely get winded playing
tennis and baseball. And you may
fall over if you play the boxing game
if you haven’t exercised in a while.

Wii Fit is a new fitness game that
comes with a very sophisticated
balance board. It’s been one of the
hottest games for the console since
it was released this summer and
very hard to find.

We never saw a copy of it til this
week. We were at Target (natch)
and grabbed one a few days ago

Teresa has been playing with a
few days but I finally got around to
trying it today.

Wow. The strength training is no
walk in the park. Long slow purposeful
pushups and lunges. You can’t cheat on
this thing because the balance board
is so sensitive it measure your weight
distribution precisely. If you wobble,
it knows. If your balance stinks, it
knows and grades you on it.

It is not a toy. But the fitness routines
do feel like a game.

What was especially exciting for me
was when I tried the Yoga stuff. They
made a big deal out of Proper Deep
Breathing! So cool!

Nice to see people who get it,

And like anything else with fitness
it’s easy to get bored. So I consider
this new Wii Fit to be another thing
I can do to get in shape because let’s
face it…one of the things you have to
do when you’re starting to exercise is
keep it fresh and not get bored

It’s one of the reasons I include so
many different breathing techniques
on The Secrets Of Better Breathing.

http://www.fearlessbreathing.com

If I just showed you one thing you’d
lose interest pretty quick, It’s why
you need to have options.

If you haven’t done so already I
suggest you invest in yourself
and get that first thing that will
start to get you in better shape and
feeling better.

Deep Breathing is the best way to
start if you haven’t done anything in
ages. Breathing is an exercise and
exercise is a medicine.

http://www.fearlessbreathing.com

Until next time…keep breathing.

So I got an email from a reader the
other day saying that I was exploiting
my girlfriend…my very pretty girlfriend
for the purposes of marketing

Really? I had no idea.

It seems like she was interested in
the Secrets of Better Breathing DVD
Course but was turned off by me and
my Teresa doing a bonus DVD called
“Breathing for Better Sex”

Heck it’s a bonus. I give it away. If you
don’t like it or are offended by it then
just toss it. Or give it to someone else
who won’t be offended by it.

The thing is, it was Teresa’s idea to do that
DVD as a bonus. So she exploited ME!!

I knew I wanted to do something extra for
the course. And there is absolutely nothing dirty or
vulgar about it. It’s actually meant to help
bring couples together. It’s broken into to
parts, for couples and indivduals

For the couples part, it helps bring a sense
of intimacy for couples. To help new couples
get to know each other or for couples who
have been together a long time to re-ignite
their intimacy.

The individual exercises are meant to help
women and men relax and open up. And to
help men with stamina and increase pleasure
for women.

How about that?

In fact, people tell me they order The Secrets Of
Better Breathing for the bonus as much as they
do for the “main” DVD.

Here’s the thing though. A friend and business
mentor of mine says I need spin off the Breathing
for Better Sex DVD. I should either stop selling
it as a bonus or develop a bigger course based
on it. I’m leaning toward the latter

http://www.fearlessbreathing.com

What do you think. Shoot me an email.

Until next time, Keep Breathing,

We are having some roofing
and painting and drywall work
done in the apartment.

Leftover fun from Hurricane Ike
but Houston is getting there. A
lot of crews from out of town still
here doing repairs everywhere.

Our place was supposed to be
a one day job–replace drywall
from water damage. Re texture
and then paint.

But that was last Friday and here
we are almost to Thursday. Ugh

But sometime stuff doesn’t always
go as planned right?

No biggie. And as frustrated as I
am that this is still going on I just
sit back, relax and count my blessings.

It;s not so bad and it could certainly
be worse.

Just do some relaxing and deep breathing.
9 or 10 good Fully Body Inhales and
I;m a new man.

Try it next time you’re pissed or frustrated.
And remember what I said…next week
about 50% of the country is gonna be
pissed. So beware.

Just relax and work on yourself.

Pick up my best selling Secrets of
Better Breathing DVD while the getting
is good. I’ve had such positive response
for the Breathing for Better Sex Bonus
DVD that I’ll probably be spinning it
off into its own product.

So grab “Secrets” while you can with
Breathing for Better Sex as a bonus.
Because it won’t last long.

http://www.fearlessbreathing.com/

Talk to you soon. Until next time

Keep Breathing,

from the big day. Yep. Election day
is coming up and I can guarantee
you one thing.

Half the country is gonna be pissed
off of Nov 5th.

So really I;m talking to both sides of
the aisle here. Either your guy is gonna
lose as predicted or your guy is gonna
lose because polls are usually pretty
inaccurate. So don’t freak out.

Anybody old enough to remember
the “Dewey Defeats Truman” thing?
Or for that matter does anyone know
anything about history anymore?

Ah well. Either way just be aware that
you’re gonna run into some grumpy people
next Wednesday, Best to
remember to breathe. Do your Full
Body Breaths and Muscle locks that
morning.

Maybe even a few Stress Squeezes
at the red lights when you’re out and
about…but not while driving…just at
red lights.

As for me, as long as the Cowboys
keep losing I;ll be happy. We’ll see
if they can make it “3 in a row” today.
3 losses that is.

We’ll be at the Texans game this
afternoon…seeing if they can make
it 3 wins in a row. Hey, it’s the
Bengals, who are only slightly worse
this year….so they’re a 30% chance
I’d say.

My other despised team, the Oilers
are doing remarkably well so I just
won’t even talk about them. Yes I
know they changed their name, but
in these neck of the woods they’ll
always be the Oilers.

Talk to you soon and until next
time, Keep Breathing.

The pressure is on but that’s cool because
pressure makes us perform better I think.

Just in case you missed the incredible call
we had tonight you’re in luck.

As you know I hosted a phone call with my
buddy  Kevin Thompson and he talked about
his awesome Automatic Income System.

But I had a lot of emails from folks who couldn’t
make it. Some were overseas, some had to work.
etc etc.

So the good news is this. If you missed the
call you can go here and download it and
listen to it,

http://www.CashFlowShortcut.com/recording.html

You will learn a lot on this call about
how to get your own site up and running
and making munny.

Again it’s the same system I use on my
sites.

But a word of warning. There is a special
offer on there and you gotta hear it before
Midnight tomorrow.

Kev told me he was quite serious about
limiting the number of people who could
take advantage of this so go listen to it
now before the website and the recording
disappears…no joke. Go.

Until next time. Keep Breathing.

go pick up our buddy Eddie
Baran at the airport. Trying to
decide about which BBQ place
to take him to.

Ya can’t get the good stuff on
the West Coast, let’s face it.

The best place in Houston is
probably not a good choice today.
You can only eat outside there
and today is a bit rainy.

Ah well. May settle for the
number 2 joint…still pretty dang
good.

I’m gonna go practice some Big
Strong Lungs exercises before
heading out. Wanna be able to show
Eddie some new stuff he hasn’t seen
before. And he promised to show me
some new exercises too

My favorite is The Expander.

Makes your lungs bigger, stronger
and more able to get the good stuff
in and the bad stuff out.

Check it out here.

http://fearlessbreathing.com/bslp.html

Only available at this price for a couple
more days. FedEx says online the new
DVD’s will be here Friday..so jump on
the pre-publication price now while the
gettin is good.

Talk to you soon. Until next time, Keep
Breathing.
