We care, we hope, we pray.

Several years ago, my mother passed away after 3 failed breast cancer operations. It was/has not been easy ever since, it’s like losing a part of you, the biggest part of you. She never once let her smile fade away, she never once lost hope, she never showed signs of weakness, except physical signs that were obvious at times.

She taught me everything I know, she taught me how to survive and how to make the best out of anything life throws my way, no matter how devastating or heart breaking. My mother is and forever will be in my heart.

To all those that have gone, or are going through the same, my heart aches for you. You have to stay strong, you’re their support, there for them to lean on in time of need.

Spread the awareness, help us get the message out by using this simple wordpress theme till the end of October (or longer if you wish…)

LoopFuse Marketing and Sales Automation Suck

Friend of mine has been busy blogging over at consideropen.com only to be slammed by the phenomena I like to call ‘retarded CEO of LoopFuse comment shower’, whos marketing and sales automation software sucks, not that I even care to read about it really. CEO of LoopFuse, Roy Russo has proven several things by commenting the way he did, one being that he has zero people skills. I’m not only going to go on about how rude, immature and fucking stupid this dickhead was in replying the way he did, I’m also going to talk about how NOT to promote your product, LoopFuse can learn from this, really, they can’t get any worse so here goes.

This guy is beyond being a complete fuck up, he’s arrogant, has an ego that needs to be chopped down a notch and owes Lauren a fucking apology for the way he acted in a LoopFuse Review . Once he publicly apologies to her on her blog post, this will go away. Otherwise, get ready for a little ripple that I like to call, pin the tale on the moron. What do you think 1400+ unique blog posts about how crap a service LoopFuse is, not to mention how crap a personality it has running it will do to his company? Yeah, I see this going to the shitter pretty fast too.

“LoopFuse is a Marketing Automation Suite, NOT a web analytics package. Hence the price, hence the “extra functionality”.

… and you can view the click-stream. Trial’s are free, brain-cells aren’t.

Thanks for the plug, though. ;)”

You like sarcasm Roy? Guess what, there are over 37thousand BH’s/SEOs/Webmasters in my personal network alone that would love to share their sarcastic comments with you. I KNOW you’re thrilled to hear that.

It’s no secret, my people skills are pretty fucking awesome, you don’t get invited to the googleplex every day for having shit for skills, to talk at seminars if you were not good at what you do, but when something bothers me, when someone gets under my skin, i’m NOT afraid to say so, and I will tell it how it is. I don’t mind throwing around a few threats either, and like I’ve told many before, call my bluff if you think it is one, do it, make my day that much better.

So promoting yourself online, well one point you need to keep in mind is to never ever lash out at negative reviews, conduct yourself professionally online, or as my friend Jeremy over at shoemoney.com once said, ‘blog comments travel faster than the speed of light’…whada ya know!!! He was right ;)

Keep in mind, not all publicity is in fact good publicity. If you get 500 people chanting the same review, you’re most likely going to get shit for clients if those reviews start ranking, sure one or two wont matter much, but when word gets out, you’re in the dog house. Period.

Always remember that it’s the client that feeds you, just because you have made enough off past clients, that does not mean you’re safe to bash new ones, on the contrary, ‘what makes you, can break you’ and in this case, it’s your paying customers and potential ones. Bashing them means you’re simply hacking away at your own life chord.

Guys, use LoopFuse’s poor behavior as an example, instead of effectively tackling the review and spinning it around to their advantage by possibly changing the reviewers mind about the product, or at least fixing it with a professional discussion so users reading both the review and the comments side with you, Loop Fuse went ahead with a piss poor job of a come back and insulted not ONLY the blogger in question, but all the blog readers.

Roy, ray, whoever you all are, fix this or take it to another level by slamming me with a sarcastic reply too ;) Go on, make my fucking day, and Lauren, don’t worry, we bloggers stick together no matter what!

Naked Sushi

That’s right, naked sushi, I mean really where do I come up with this crap. Ok so i didn’t not this time, what after the whale sperm trip and the sort of spam comments I got as a result i think i’ll lay off the dumb titles for a bit. I was contacted by a friend to cook up a logo, a sushi related logo, a naked sushi related logo at that! He had me slap up an Eat in China logo not too long ago, now he added to his menu and wants the logo changed.

 

What did he add to his menu? Naked women. That’s right, really hot naked women that lay on a table covered in sushi while customers at his restaurant eat off their sizzling bodies.

Hot right? I’m definitely paying him a visit later this week, and I know what i’m going to order, naked wome…uhhh…naked sushi! :D

So anyway, the logo was not supposed to be changed all that much just have the word naked sushi added in there somewhere, he’ll only have it up till he decides on whether he’s gonna keep the naked sushi clad women on the menu or not. So here’s the logo, what do you guys think? Simple? Modernish? The fork was his idea although I wanted to go with chopsticks to make it feel more Chinese like, his restaurant is a trendy modern one so I guess it goes well with it.

Anyway if anyone is interested in naked sushi recipes, you’ll find one below;

Ingredients
  • some sushi
  • a hot female body (Asian, African American or Caucasian you’re free to choose the color)
  • 3 cups sumeshi
  • 1 cucumber
  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 6 jalapeño peppers or a bunch of sliced jalapeños from a jar
  • a leaf of some sort, big enough to fit some sushi on top of

Cooking Directions

  1. Cook sushi rice.
  2. Cut cucumber into sticks.
  3. Slice jalapeños… but be careful! Don’t get the oils in your eyes! Discard the stem.
  4. Roll the sushi, using a few sticks of cucumber, some cream cheese, and a sliced jalepeño
  5. place sushi on leaf
  6. place leaf on the womans body
  7. If you’re really hardcore when it comes to your naked sushi smother the naked ladies body with some sushi rice and eat right off the body.

And there you have it, a naked sushi photo, a naked sushi logo, a naked sushi recipe and one very hungry dude who’s gonna get some naked sushi this week! ;)

2 days left

Till the fight and i’m really feeling the pressure. I twisted my ankle today so who knows, if I blog tomorrow and the day after that means I missed the fight, if I vanish again, either I got hit by a drunk driver again or went and got my ass kicked :) Wish me luck.

I’m still alive

You’d think I dropped off the face of the earth, you’d be partially right. After a few weeks training extra hard, and then a couple rounds with that Yugoslavian brick wall of a boxer Strahinia I took a few weeks off. Sure I won the fight in round 4 but man was it tough. For a middle weight he sure landed rock solid jabs and hooks, he was slow and I guess I figured that out in the second round when he started letting his guard down due to fatigue.

So again, i’m slightly back, I have another fight next week but i’m fairly confident i’ll win, never the less i’ll need to workout so, i’ll vanish for a while again and keep you posted. For those who want to come and watch the fight email me and i’ll send you tickets.

Flying here and there

Ok, so from Detroit, all the way to NYC, then down to Miami, only to wait about 14 hours before jumping on plane to California for a business meeting in each city, if that was not enough, all that in less than 5 days. That’s what I call one hell of a fucking orgy. Sleep deprived, no fucking chance, i’m beyond just being a little sleep deprived. I’m so sleep deprived my butt hole puckers up at the thought of closing my eyes, because I know, the second I do, someone is going to shove a royal chopstick up my asshole and tell me there’s another meeting half way across the fucking globe.

Anyway, so its not all bad, I like hotels, actually no i don’t, I like the room service though, a little, except calling room service can get addictive. Ever tried making an emergency call to room service to bring you a fresh new towel up immediately only to open the rooms door butt naked to say ‘thanks, I was worried i’d catch a chill’ ? No? Try it, reaction you’ll get is priceless, especially if out of shock they drop the towel only to bend over and pick it up, and as they stand back up straight they realize their head is too close for comfort, the view, the smell (if you hold off taking that shower) would just add to that reaction. *sigh*

What else? The food is fine. Chinese, Japanese, Korean and some Italian, you can’ go wrong as long as you stay away from anything Indian, curry, woohoooo. Fire in the hole!!. Indians…curry, rice…that reminds me of this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=95xw65uikXg *smirk*

People who spam me…

Will honestly only succeed in pissing me off. So what’s this all about, I’ll tell you. I’m not going to spend much time doing so either as I have better things to do. Someone took a shot at spamming my personal site, now any other site of mine with PR, or traffic and such I would actually accept and consider silly spam, but here? no thank you.

So to all spammers, stay the fuck away. :)

Recent spammer Info:

Don’t make me add a Home Phone number? You know how fast those things spread on porn sites, you’ll be getting 500 thousand calls a day, would suck don’t you think?

Be nice, don’t spam, because spam kills. ;)

God Damn Music

This made me blog twice within an hour! Insane right? Then again this is my day off so whatever. I was listening to stuff off my iTouch (i fixed it yes yes) and a song started playing, god knows who had put it on there, probably Summer or one of the girls. ManEater!! Don’t ask, reminded me of a friend I know online, Nat, hahaha Insane right? She’s more a MeatEater actually but here you go Nat, prob know this song but I felt like adding it here. I’ll make a quick graphic before I add it, too!

Where to go on a first date?

What a great question! Not really. Ok so a friend of mine has sent in a question asking where on earth he should take a girl out on a first date…so this is what he had to say:

Chris Audio Clip

For now, i’ll type out my reply as I’m not in the mood to record this answer in particular heh.First of all, taking a girl out for Chinese can be really romantic, and fun! Especially if you pretend to not know how to use chopsticks, have her teach you or vice versa and so forth. That’s all great, but a 5 quid all you can eat Chinese restaurants? That’s like $10!!! Are you trying to food poison her Chris? Jesus.

Safe Sex Is The Way Damn It

Anyway, about the whole Pub outing and such, that’s ok too, but on a first date it’s always good to go out somewhere public, even though the Pub is a public place for a gathering and such, it’s usually best to stay away from them on a first date. Most girls can be intimidated by the whole Pub, beer drinking, loud noise scene, at least the ones you want to hang out with should be!

Ride in a bus? Say what?? You got on a bus, and just had it ride you around? On a first date? Chris, I don’t know if that’s a ‘thing’ now in the UK, it’s been a while since I last visited, but here in Detroit mate, you try and use public transportation as a last resort to simply get from point A to point B, let alone to use for a fucking date. Bloody hell, she’d probably get raped, not to mention that you would probably get raped after her also here for that! No, no buses Chris!

My advice would be, see what she likes. Ask her about what her fav food is, for all you know she might hate Chinese! Does she drink and smoke? She might have recently quit smoking, taking her a bar will be a sure way to kiss any action you’re hoping to see good bye! If all else fails ask her where she wants to go, have her pick a place, no shame in giving her the option to choose! Just shows her you care, and Chris, ‘action’ or ’sex’ on a first date is never a smart idea, unless that’s all you’re after, in which case I would suggest you find yourself a prostitute :D

Be safe, and always use protection! Aids sucks big time!
