I don’t know about you but I am tired of spending every weekend at home with no one by my side. The holidays haven’t help much as those holiday blues just make me end up feeling worse. It’s the same old every holiday.  Downing 10 bottles of vodka, seeing the same relatives and hearing the same stupid Viagra jokes. I always wonder to myself, ”Which caves are all the good ones hiding at?” (more…)

Nice guys finish last. This is as true of a statement than any theory mankind has ever come up with. Nice guys finish last is up there in the same class as E=mc2, three sides to every triangle (DUH!) and the rich get richer. It is so true that even Green Day wrote a song about it.

Excuse the pun. You may be wondering right now, what in the world are you talking about Jeff? Have you ever asked yourself “why can’t I get a date?” Or how about ”why can’t I get past the first date? What I am trying to say is that the old way of dating just doesn’t work anymore in today’s super busy society. How many times have you heard “I’m too busy to go out”? That line is now being used more than “I’m busy washing my hair.” Well, I’m tired of it and I have given up on dating. (more…)
