In a bit of an explanation I went from suddenly doing nothing, to suddenly having to deal with several issues. I won't bore you with the details, but alot of "Dallas"-like drama was involved.
My grandfather (on my mom's side) had a heart attack
--- had to deal with TONS of family drama on that; I swear to God certain family members of mine are the dumbest people alive. I had to be the one to finally transport him home last Thursday. Their was alot of clothes shopping, price finding for meds, and searching for backordered medical equipment on that deal that took alot of time. I would go into more detail on the drama, but i'll leave you with this on it...Would you give a pacemaker to a man in LATE-STAGE Alzheimer's Disease, to try to keep him alive?
Sure you would... if it involves continuing to receive to a Worker's Compensation check.
I let my opinion at the disgusting nature of it be known, but my opinion doesn't count of course.
Sex Clubs and Fucking the Babysitter
--- I won't name names, but I got thrown into the middle of a nasty divorce between two friends, involving one the bitchy golddigger wife and the husband fucking the babysitter and the underground sex club and drug scene in Orlando with the moderate to very wealthy, while his sick near dead newborn daughter lie in the hospital.LOTS of drama there. I was asked to try to legally be a witness in court, but ultimately I decided to stay out of it.
The Death of a 20+ Year Friendship
--- Like many of us, we have friends who "change" as they grow older or get married. After taking several years of disrespectful behavior and a lack of appreciation, I told him off, and resciended my best man offer for his wedding. Now he's calling and i'm done. So there was alot of heartache, anger, frustration and drama there.My own stuff
--- While trying to go back to college for the fall (which i'm now ready to go on), I got thrown into the middle of alot of financial issues where there should've been none. So while dealing with all this other stuff, i'm having to write letters, go back and forth legally (because phone calls and e-mails aren't enough in 2012), and dealing with that.Trust me, there's alot more elaboration I could give that would drop your jaws, turn your stomachs, or make you laugh or scream out loud. It wasn't a "good time", but it was enough that I could provide an entire season of scripts for Dallas or The Newsroom, that's for sure.
Either way, thanks for all your thoughts, and I should have more time now. All issues have been resolved... for now.
Wow that's all?

I'm looking to put together a concise youtube video for my business. I need somebody who has experience with video production and can put together something sharp.
I figured with all the homemade GNR vids floating around here, somebody may fit the job or at the very least make a recommend.
Thanks.

What are you talking about? Be more concise.

You don't have to have a car.
You're paying for insurance one way or the other. If you pay for a cab, your portion of the insurance is inside the fare. Same with any other form of public transportation. Likewise those who do drive cars pay a higher insurance for those who do not and choose to drive anyway.

Don't even waste your time...he's convinced rates will go down.
You're looking at it backwards. The more people pay into something the cheaper it becomes. Right now insurance is high because we are paying for MILLIONS of Americans who are not insured. In fact the system we currently have is closer to Socialism than anything the GOP could dream up.

Talk to any accountant about Obama and they will tell you how he is a job killer due to the new taxes sitting out there. Especially health care. Once he sets precedent with health care he will be able to force us to do anything. I own a small business, it will cost me so much money to hire new employees if Obama gets his way. Companies like McDonalds and Walmart are exempt from the Healthcare thing because they said it would cost them too much money to insure everyone, but my business would not be. Hilary Clinton should have been our President. Obama is Nothing like Bill Clinton, so get that out of your head.
Somebody explain to me how providing health care to 30M more people will kill jobs? You've got to be kidding.

It's a notch above a fan made video. I liked the behind the scenes stuff. Ultimately a bit lazy, and simply too late. I still enjoyed seeing it though.

I'm not sure how I feel about that poster? For somebody who couldn't be bothered to show up to a reunion....shakes head.
