Logging days has been canceled folks. This is not a lie. The glorious event that would have happened on my birthday, and was one of the reasons I got so excited about April being a personal lumberjack awareness month. Normally logging days happens at the same time that Colorado Timber Industry Association has their annual meet. The meeting is still going to happen but the lumberjack skills will not happen this year. No chopping, rolling, sawing, or that crazy thing where they chop a hole in a tree stick some wood in it and climb it. Lumberjacks are crying great big tears of maple syrup right now.
It is extremely difficult to find a picture of a lumberjack crying, I ended up making one. Can anybody get me a picture of a lumberjack in tears?

Google’s webmaster tools has just completed an update that I had not known was in the works. You can now not only see the top hundred words you are ranking for, you can see theoretically all keywords. It will also show you how many impressions you received on Google, in the last month this personal blog of mine got 90k impressions from Google. Granted I only got 880 clicks(though I think my analytics disagrees and says it was a wee bit more) but still it is fantastic to be able to see all of this. Definitely an awesome update thanks to the Google!

There is but one universally accepted fact, lumberjacks are legit. People may argue about pirates versus ninja, but nobody disputes the glory that is a lumberjack. For absolutely no reason whatsoever I am going to fill the rest of April(my birthday month) to the brim with lumberjack y goodness. Prepare for everything from a “How to make flapjacks from scratch” post to one about the logistics of a lumberjack’s chance at surviving a zombie invasion. By request I will be curling my mustache and at some point making a post about how to grow and curl your own mustache.
This month you will learn the basics of what it means to embrace the spirit of the lumberjack. You will learn to swing an axe and fell a tree. You will learn how to pick the right kind of syrup and how to eat flapjacks. To the left is a group of the most legit lumberjacks ever. Look how stylish and daring they are. Got any questions about lumberjacks? Leave a comment or join the “Ask a Lumberjack” live chat which will be Friday from 3:30-4:30 I will be there to answer any and all lumberjack related questions. Leave a comment with a post you would like to see and I will do my best to acquiesce your request
Live Chat link is below. Remember it is tomorrow at 4:30. Be there
There are a lot of Left for Dead ers that want to know more about this beefy coach character. I am here to tell you more about the real life inspiration for coach. His name is Ron Hester and he was one of my High School gym coaches, I had him for weight training and oh man is that dude tough. Just like the Left For Dead coach Hester is a retired football player. If you put them side by side you can see all of their career similarites, they are both from Georgia, they both played for the Dolphins until they blew out their knees, they both happened to be defensive linebackers, and they both went to teach High School football after all of this. Coach Hester coaches at Fletcher High School, and while they never say which school the Left For Dead Coach teaches at his jersey is purple and gold with the letters FHS on it. His jersey looks identical to some of the jerseys my old school had, Fletcher’s colours also happen to be purple and gold.
Here are a couple of not really verifiable similarities both coaches have a gigantic heart. In fact Hester has such a big heart that he has difficulties saying no to the kids selling candy for fund raiser. He is often caught eating a chocolate bar, bam another similarity they both love chocolate bars. Any of you Fletcher kids that have a similarity leave it as a comment I will add it to the list!

There are literally tons of get rich quick schemes out there on the internet, I am going to tell you right now I have tried my fair share of them. None of them have worked for me yet. That does not mean that somebody can’t earn a supplemental income online. I am constantly looking for ways to add some extra cash into my pocket, those of you who know me on a personal level know that I have been known to mow yards for a bit of extra cash.
At any rate I have been writing for Shop Wiki which is in the population stage of its development. This means that before they can fully launch they need people to write content for their website. This is where I(and some of you) come in, we create the content on a pay per post basis. 8 dollars a post is not bad at all! Essentially it is freelance writing, with one major benefit you decide which topics you write about. For example I wrote about Cello Accessories because I was interested in them. There is a list of topics for approved writers to choose from. If you guys are at all interested in getting involved you can check out the blog http://yovia.com/blogs/shopwiki/ or you can ask me some questions. I do not get anythign if you sign up,
Gratz Nina on covering my hair in vaseline. I appreciate a good prank. I am not as petty as the rest of my family is, I have never mailed mashed potatoes to anybody or placed fish heads on the engine of their car. Gained some respect for you today, but lost some for Israel when I saw this video of him.

Corey Haim is one of those 80′s child actors that we all knew and loved. The LAPD reported this morning that he died. The shocking revelation was made to TMZ. This 38 year old actor has supposedly died from drug overdose. There are many people out there who are saying that this is a hoax, and that Corey did not die of an overdose. Corey Haim has been battling with his drug problems for years. So far this seems like an accidental drug overdose, rather than something more sinister like the M-Word or suicide. Corey Haim was a great man who had his problems. He will be missed.
For more information about who Corey Haim was click HERE
Corey Ian Haim who lived from December 23, 1971 to today March 10, 2010, was one of those 1980′s teen idols. This Canadian actor starred and co-starred in a wide variety of films. Some of the more popular examples are Lucas, Murphy’s Romance, The Lost Boys, License to Drive and Dream a Little Dream. In recent years he was most notably known for his numerous collaborations with Corey Feldman. The pair was quickly dubbed “The Two Coreys”. The nickname was so catchy, and the public so interested in their relationship, that Haim and Feldman starred in a TV ‘reality’ show titled The Two Coreys, which aired on the A&E Network from 2007 to 2008. Corey Haim was a great actor who will be missed.

Cubicles and Tylenol
Slave away the day!
Pass the glass, make the moment last
Tomorrow’s just a day away
Screaming clock, crooked walk, ungodly hour
Curse the man as you stand in the shower
Wondering how you ever landed the subscription
To punching clocks and wearing socks and office friction
As you snake, brake, make your way through traffic
You see the SOB’s in HOV are laughing
HAHAHAHA
Run the hall, to your stall, all perspired
You find you’re late, it’s half past eight and you’re fired
