TV Turnoff Week : 2006

Monday, April 24th, 2006

I am taking part of TV Turn of week. Starting yesterday i will not watch any television. This means anything Tivo’d and i am going to take it a step further and say no downloaded shows either. I will just watch those shows next monday. I have already noticed a difference of not turning the tv on. During dinner me and my girlfriend usually put on a movie or just put on the tv. I didn’t take it to the extreme last night, i cheated and i watched some Tivo’d Elizabeth I. But not anymore, the TV will be off. I usually put on the tv when i go to bed, but last night i did not. I forgot and i turned on the tv this morning for a second, because it is just ritual. But i quickly turned it off. Support TV Turn off week, and see how much TV is in your life. Turn off that TV! For more information about TV Turn Off Week, please check out Adbusters.org : TV Turn Off Week and The Tv Turn Off Organization
. Did Jack Bauer take out the President, Who did Tony Soprano k, Did all of the Lost characters die? I won’t know until May 1st, And either should you, Turn off that TV!

“Blocked” Hanes Commercial

Hanes Commercial with Kevin Bacon and Michael Jordon
I was watching a movie on abc family, and the funniest commercial came on. It was a Hanes commercial. Hanes commercials usually don’t make me laugh, but this one was just to funny. It is a commercial with Kevin Bacon and Michael Jordan, Where Kevin tries to make a shot, and Jordon blocks every shot that Kevin makes. I found it online on there website at http://www.hanes.com/HanesCommerce/en-US/Explore.htm. And then you have to scroll to the right some and you can watch this commercial. I am glad that Hanes puts there commercials online, i wish that more companies would do this.

I got the Flu

Sunday, April 9th, 2006

I somehow got Influenza again, so if your counting thats me getting the flu twice this year. The first time i got the flu my body was aching for about one week, and then i got a cold because of it, that went away two months later. Did you know that the flu kills about 36,000 people a year. I couldn’t find for sure but i bet thats because they got something else because of the flu. But anyways, thats a lot of people dying because of some stupid disease.

I was told that you can’t get the same flu twice. Your body learns how to protect your body from that flu, so it can’t touch you. But a little bit different strain can. When you get a flu shot, that shot only protects you from %80 of the flu that season. The best time to get a flu shot is in november or october.

I got the flu and a couple of days later i got a little present and now i am getting a runny nose. Posting is going to be a little less sparse until i can think better or get the energy to write something.

In the meantime you can check out my photoblog at http://photo.wordpress.com/ and leave some comments if you like any of the pictures.

If you want more information about Influenza you should check out the Center for Disease and Prevention website about the topic at http://www.cdc.gov/flu/
