Sink or Swim

I’ve gathered up some trivias which may seem have a small impact in our lives, but then again, we need to learn new things everyday, right?

1.  When Bugs Bunny first appeared un 1935, he was called happy Rabbit.

2.  Walt Disney’s cartoon character was Oswald the rabbit.

3.  There are 11 points on the collar around Kermit the Frog’s neck.

4.  There are 63,360 inches in a mile.

5.  In 1949, Walter Huston and his son John became the first father-and-son team to win the Oscars as director, and an actor, in Treasure of Sierra Madre.

6.  New York has the highest reported number of violent and property crimes in the U.S.

7.  The top killers in Africa are AIDS, malaria, and war.

8.  The song, ‘When Irish Eyes are smiling”, was written by George Graff, who was German, and was never in Ireland all his life.

9.  The song, “Happy Birthday”, as originally written by sister Mildred and Patty Hill as “Good Morning to you”. 

There, some of you may know some of these but I bet many of us don’t know all of these until now. Knowledge is power, as they say, but learning is a more powerful tool to have as we always strive to be better.

So I’ve lost around 17 lbs playing ball with my buddies since October last year. The beer got to me. The sedentary lifestyle got to me, too. So now I’m back in shape. I thought I could do a sick lay-up at today’s game until I landed on the WRONG part of the foot. Now I am in pain. But the nurse was hot.

So I was browsing on some stuff online and I found out that a big percentage of males aged from 30-50 are for a fact, not as sexually active as some may think. Yes, folks – long gone are the days when people accepted the fact that men think about sex every three seconds – if it is a fact at all.

As it turns out, not all men are after sex, after all and this is a result of a growing dilemma amongst men in that age range. Depression is also a said factor to this as a high percentage of men who are depressed and are counted in based on the studies, to just completely lose interest in sex. Most of these men are married by the way and aren’t even thinking of cheating.

40 percent of these men who seek the help of marriage counselors and professionals are still capable of making love but just don’t want to. While this may be an alarming fact, there being working for long hours coupled up with stress, can be fixed. How long it may take to solve remains

So its Labor Day ladies and gents. Instead of being on a holiday, I’ve submitted myself to the worst no rest day of all time.

I had to help a friend move into a new apartment. And my usual careless self, got a china cabinet to just fall over Me.

This is the life.
