“You are FIRED!” The only permanent fixture in any company structure is the man who runs the business ie: the big cheese. If you are a lowly employee, no matter your position, you are expendable. If there is anything you take away from this article, take this one with you – YOU ARE EXPENDABLE. I know this crushes your inner feelings of “safety” and “security” but the moment you forget this fact, you will find yourself assed out if they decide to let you go. People fool themselves into thinking that their worth is beyond what it really is. Sure your boss can’t do his accounting, he doesn’t know any of the clients and you are the go-to person for all of the major accounts. Sure you’ve created the workflow and built the business into what it is now, but here’s the thing – if your boss doesn’t think so, guess what? No matter how… [Read more]

Men, step up and claim your women. Is it me or do we have a sort of retreat by men as a whole when it comes to the more alpha type women? If we see the assets blooming, the bank account full and her attitude solid, we slink away assuming she’s a bitch with an agenda. I need to know when was it that our balls started shrinking and moving north up into our stomachs. When did it become an unwanted challenge to slay a Dragon, cut down other knights and climb a tower in order to claim a buxom babe as ours. Why are we afraid of a career woman with a little bit of attitude? Doesn’t the reward far outweigh the hassle once the shields have dropped, the thighs have parted and you share in the pleasures of partnership and romance? I know exactly what it is boys, you think she’s going to… [Read more]

I have NEVER been attracted to muscle women, actually come to think of it whenever I’d see a chick on the cover of a muscle mag, it was a HUGE turn-off. This was me until I met Denise, the cardiovascular nurse who I worked with periodically. She was sweet, endearing and we would trade smiles with each other whenever we crossed paths.  Soon I found out accidentally that we both parked our expensive German cars in the same distant lot to hide them from nosy co-workers wanting to know what we drove. Needless to say, all that muscle stuff went out the door, I was in love. So lemme describe Denise, she was a shorty about 5’3″, caramel complexion with a short bob haircut. She had a backyard but no fat or cottage cheese, the legs and arms were cut up to hell, letting you know immediately that she worked out. She was single, in… [Read more]

Shoes show that you understand the concept of completeness. Any clown can buy an expensive suit and a silk tie. But a man’s ability to pick the right shoes to match his suit shows he isn’t a peasant, and knows what he’s doing. – Momo Women will look at your shoes automatically because they are wired that way – we look at the rack, they look at our shoes, it’s just a fact. Having grown used to hearing the words “oooh her shoes are cute!” from the woman, I realize that women keep their eyes south when checking out our gear. It comes from the attention they pay to their own shoes, having tons of them, always looking for them and seeing who is wearing them. It’s like being a logo designer, you do it so much that you can’t eat, drink or drive by anything that has a logo without doing a mental critique… [Read more]

“The things we forgot about being different in the Public School system.” My friend’s young daughter has had issues with school, she is smart as a whip and extremely polite so as you can expect academics aren’t the issue. Although she is 22 years younger than myself I can understand what she’s going through. Blame this on me being an enormous 6 foot child mentally or the fact that my childhood memories are still pretty keen. Either way, the aspect of “fitting in” is starting to really grate on her young nerves as she battles the name-calling, the unsupportive people who look like her (more on this later) and the adults who lack the imagination to see things from her side. It’s a struggle that I remember well, and I hope for her sake that she is as strong a child as I was. If you (the reader) are not black, some of what I… [Read more]

There are certain guys that get tried on a daily basis and there are other guys who never get tried for whatever reason. It’s not always about looks because some of the biggest guys still get tried and get their asses beat and some of the smallest guys are avoided by literally everyone. Why is this? Us martial artists like to think of it as an aura that surrounds an individual, lets think of it as colors like a green aura means “try me” and a red aura means “step the hell back”. Many of us would love to have a red aura but we have somewhat of a greenish-yellow tint as in we aren’t tried much but there are times when we get checked. Personally my aura is orange-red, it is near red but sometimes people will get close to trying. I didn’t develop this color from beating people’s asses, quite the contrary, my… [Read more]

People always say that its only when pet peeves and annoying ways come into play that you realize how much you are willing to put up with when it comes to dating… once you know how much you are willing to put up with (and what you definitely are not) you tend to migrate towards and settle with someone who fits that mold. Then there’s that chick.  We all know who she is, the one who for whatever reason, her issues are always the sole controller of her emotions when she meets someone and gets close to a real relationship.  Could it be that she is much more comfortable when she is getting screwed over because that’s familiar to her?? I have known women in the past who have put up with a lot of jackass activity and they truly didn’t deserve it.  Makes me think nice girls really do finish last.  It’s like when… [Read more]

It is better to appear teflon to people than it is to appear vulnerable. No-one likes a malcontent who bears the weight of the world on his shoulders, but everyone respects James Bond. What does 007 have to do with this? Well he is a master of “the cool”, thus his famous words “shaken but not stirred”. To the average guys defense though, I would say that if half of us could score prime quality tail as much as Bond does, we would be aloof to stress like he is… or would we really? Mastering the cool starts with wearing a mask, it was the hardest part of the lesson for me being that I am not a liar. I have spent a lifetime trying my best to be upfront and honest with no need for facade with the flawed thinking that this would make me a “man of honor”. I took it too literally, since… [Read more]
