Month: June 2016

I cant say that I am excited about the upcoming summer Olympics™ in Rio, Brazil. Money and corruption has turned the Olympics™ into an embarrassing spectacle.

Like every year, I...

Dear Haters, Three points I would like to make to you.  I know that in the video I do, people will completely miss the points so here they are in written format: Learn from others!  Hate me all you want, I dont care.  I stopped caring what other people thought about me in February of 1988.  My self-esteem and sense of accomplishment are not affected by what you think of me.  YOU are the ones that need the most help and I will not give up on you.  Please consider this advice. When you become aware of someone who has...
