Gillette Fusion ProGlide Sucks!

I would like to make a blog on a sort of review on razors.So I used to use really cheap dispsoable razors to do my shaving. I have a chin strap and im very picky on how it looks, so I decided to go a step up and buy a nice razor. Well i was watching television the other day and I saw the Gillette Fusion ProGlide and they advertised that this particular razor has special gliding razors that are supposed to prevent razor burn and be gentle on your skin. So I was very excited because I always without a doubt get razor burn with my cheapo throw away razors. I hate razor burn with a passion and I like this new razor, because I have razor burn no more, but I dont get all the little hairs off! I have little pricklys that drive me crazy. I mean you can't see them from a distance like you can only see them if your like really close to my face, but I'm still very self conscious about it and i really just want somebody to give me some advice on a really good razor that  doesn't give me razor burn and removes all of those little pricklys!!So please comment and let me know what razor you use and if you like it.

Halloween

I know it's alittle early to be talking about Halloween, but October is only a week or less away.I saw a sign in Ruma the other day about some haunted house or something and it made me think about last year. Every year my group of friends and I always go to all of the haunted houses around this area. Last year we went to the "Haunted Woods" in Evansville, then the one called the "Haunted Trail' in waterloo, and those are the only ones I can remember, it seemed like we went to at least three, I just forgot the last one. Halloween is my favortie time of the year besides Christmas. My family has this tradition where we go to Red Bud to the pumpkin patch outside of town to get pumpkins. Last year we had my blazer, and my mom was like i want cornstalks and haybales! So we were driving down the highway with cornstalks falling off the top of my car and pumkins and haybales inside. We are always cramed in the car every year.There was a statistic on Fox 2 News stating that people spend just as much on Halloween as they do on Christmas! Can you believe that? I mean yea costumes cost like fifty bucks a wack but just as much as christmas? I just couldn't believe that!

Hit and Run!

So I had a very exhausting week, balancing school and work is no fun at all! I was looking forward to my weekend coming up because I actually have it off from work and I get to go see some of my friends. So while we were hanging out I remembered I had to  pick something up from Walmart before I left for home. I pull up to Walmart and go in side and get the few things I need and when I come back to my 1998 Chevy Blazer, I notice a big dent in my rear bumper area, and I said to myself whoa that for sure wasn't there before! I look around and there are no cars by mine and I'm like great, guess who's paying for that? Me! So it was very depressing and I don't even know when I'm going to have time to get a estimate to see how much more I have to work to be able to fix this. Life little hassels right? On the bright side my car is really old and its not as bad as having a new car getting a dent because I would be infuriated then! So todays lesson for everyone is to park all the way in the back in walmart parking lot, away from other cars!

-Old Cartoons are the bomb-

I was really bored the other day and I was on you-tube. I was like why not tube some old shows i used to watch when I was younger. Some of my favorites were Rocko's Modern Life, Rugrats, The Angry Beavers, Catdog, Real Monsters, Hey Arnold, The Big Comfe Couch, and Gumby. Now I know we're supposed to blog on topics that have a significance so I was going to point out how bizarre some of these shows were, that young kids used to watch. Thinking back, I loved those shows, but some of them had suggestive content not really suitable for a younger generation to watch. For example, on Rocko's Modern Life, I tubed this video that was about Mr. and Mrs. Bighead, who are Rocko's neigbors, lost the lust in their married life. So Mrs. Bighead tried to attract attention, in a flirtatious manner, to Rocko. This made Rocko very uncomfortable and what eventually happened Rocko set the Bigheads back up and they were happy again. Thinking back I was like, wow I really loved these shows, but I didn't remember much of what messages were being sent through them. It's very interesting how they would put something like that for young viewers to watch. On the other hand, I never really remembered much of anything that impacted my "development" from my younger years up till my adolescence years. I guess this is the reason why Nickelodeon got rid of these shows, because I never see them on anymore.

Hurricane Earl

Hurricane Earl is getting stronger and is developing winds of 140 mph. It's path is scheduled to hit the Atlantic coast, from North Carolina up to Massachusetts. Thousands of tourists are evacuating for safety from the strong storm. It is a big inconvenience  for the vacationers because of Labor Day weekend. Most people see Labor Day weekend as the last weekend to go out as a summer holiday. It is rated as a category 2 hurricane. It is expected to hit Thursday night into Friday morning. Heavy rains and strong winds are expected on most of the East coast. The Atlantic coast getting hit by this storm takes me back to when Hurricane Katrina hit the New Orleans area. It's been five years since the hurricane, but it's taken that long for the Southerners to rebuild their homes. I remember this hurricane so well because I was in grade school when it occurred, and I ran a fundraiser for those people affected by it.I was in a Beta club and the members and I made collection cans and we placed them all alound town in spots where most people visit. We didn't save up much, but every little bit helps. Thinking back, this also reminds me of the Tsunami of the Indian Ocean in 2004, that killed 200,000 people.Well that's alittle update into the hurricane and it's progress; I hope everyone on the east coast is prepared, and are in a safe place.
