Life Hacker

Do It Yourselfer's unite! If I can learn to do something on my own without paying for it, then you better believe I am more than will to give it a shot first...which is why I LOVE LifeHacker! It's a a place where you can find "Tips and downloads for getting things done" (i.e. how to Turn a Grill Tray into a Jewelery Organizer, or How to Pick an Android Smartphone, or maybe you wanna learn how to Use Levels to Fix Poorly Exposed Photos). Whatever it is, I'm sure you can find out how to get it done at this site. Or if  you'd like to share your own secrets or tips on how to do something you don't already see on this site, you can do that as well. Be a contributor. Be a "Life Hacker." I am...

Vice Magazine

Once upon a time, I lived in Hollywood...one of the things I grew to love while living there was a magazine called VICE. I would be walking down a street, past some store and notice a magazine rack with some kind of crazy picture or cool art on the cover which would catch my eye...then "FREE" would catch my eye. "Seriously? This magazine is free.99?" So, of course I would grab a copy and read through it...finding everything from pictures of people passed out drunk in random places, to pictures of medical issues gone wrong, to stupid funny comics like the one below...
 Every month, I would keep a look out around the city for issues of VICE (many places that carried it, would be rid of it too fast to have a place I could rely on finding it...so it became a sort of treasure hunt some months). Ever since moving away from LA, I am no longer graced with free copies at my disposal, BUT...lucky for me, they have a website where I can read up on all the crazy shit they continue to publish...I feel it my duty to share their site with you....so go ahead "Site Junkee"...get lost in the craziness of VICE!
Let me know what you think...

A reminder to the more fortunate

I came across this work of writing while browsing the world wide web and thought I'd post it...just because...it made me feel "something", so maybe it will do the same for you...does it?

The Oatmeal

I find it difficult sometimes to find a site that can keep me entertained AND laughing throughout my time spent on that site. I was so happy when I came across The Oatmeal, that I HAD to share it with you!


This website is completely run by "one guy" (his words). There are some great comics to read over, like this one... 10 Reasons It would Rule To Date A Unicorn

Then there's a Blog and many other things to keep you coming back for more. Trust me, it's worth checking out!
Thanks "Guy!"

Fibers

Thinking of branding your name? Or maybe you're just tired of the same ol' mainstream Tees you see everywhere you go to shop, so you're ready to get your own ideas printed on a Tee for yourself...or your family...or for your friend's birthday...or...or...the possibilities are endless at Fibers; a site I found earlier while browsing through trusty FB (yes, sometimes their ads DO catch my attention damnit).
This site is "crazy  about self-expression and strives to create an experience for customers that offers the ultimate in product customization."

So I gave it a try and I must admit, I'm pleased with the results...
Heck, I may even order one of these bad boys!
Oh, and if you don't feel like creating your own design, don't stress...there are 1,000's of pre designed templates for you to browse through until you find one that's right up your alley.

Okay folks, have fun with this one and let me know what you think if you happen to try Fibers out for yourself...

Yoga Finder

I have been wanting to try Yoga for........well, for a LONG time! Why I haven't tried it yet is lame and I really have no excuses other than I've allowed my petty life to get in the way of doing things that can not only benefit, but also CHANGE my life and the way I live. So, today is my first step in finding the right yoga class for me...after doing some reasearch, I found a website called Yoga Finder. This site is AMAZING! No matter where you live...country, state, city, town....this site will find a class in your area.
Thinking of becoming a Yoga teacher...or maybe you just want to find a Yoga retreat...or a single Yoga event in your area....well, I would recommend searching through the Yoga Finder site before searching all over google. It could save hours out of your day like it did for me! As a matter of fact, I found a center I plan to try next week, and at a very reasonable price ($20 for my 1st three classes).
 So there ya go...a new Site for a new "You".

Photo Jo Jo is the new cool!
