Web Word of Mouth

Social Network Marketing is the new word of mouth. Word of mouth is still and will always be the most powerful form of advertising for any business looking to build quickly. Social networks such as Facebook, Myspace, and even Youtube have made it extremely easy for people to communicate with each other about the people, places, and products they love and hate. Everything has changed and everything has remained the same. The need is the same: building brand recognition to create loyalty and new opportunities to sell your products or information. The mode is the same: word of mouth is more effective than all other forms of advertising. The vehicle has improved: social networks filled with people talking about their likes and dislikes. Who needs to pay for a research company to fill a room of people, have them test your product, and fill out a survey about what they think about it. Now, with a post of a message, a question, an opinion, some advice, you can find out what your past, present, and future customers want. You can find out now! Visit www.bizybuilder.com.

I'm So Disappointed in the Church!

Today I've been outraged by none other than a "Christian" establishment. I put that word in quotes because I've come across too many people who identify themselves as Christians and yet they shun, turn away, judge, lie, cheat, steal, commit adultery, are greedy, are glutonous, and the list goes on and on. They themselves partake in the same "sins" that they judge others for. This morning, my daughter Alexa, was ready and excited to start her first day of Pre-K at High Point Preparatory Academy, which is a private school spun off from High Point Church in Arlington, TX. About a week ago, myself and my partner Bridget went to the school to pay the tuition before we left for vacation. Alexa's teacher, Mrs. Homet, happened to be there, so I found her and introduced myself and my daughter; I also introduced Bridget, as my daughters other parent. When we got back into town, I had a voicemail from the director stating that it was pretty urgent that she spoke with me before Alexa began school, preferably on Monday, September 1st, Labor day. The school was slated to be closed that day, but she would meet me there. I had a feeling immediately what the meeting would be about, but I didn't want to jump to conclusions. I called her on Monday and let her know that I'd be happy to meet her early Tuesday morning before Alexa's class began. I've been getting Alexa crunk about going to her new school for months. She had on her new uniform, new shoes, new backpack, and she was ready for her first day of class. I get to the meeting with the director, Cami, and soon the associate pastor of the church (which by the way is supposed to be a seperate entity from the school) joined the meeting. We got into the application, which I was told was the purpose of the meeting - she wanted to make sure we are all on the same page, slowly but surely she inched her way into asking me what the extent of mine and Bridget's relationship was. I was very open, and after several questions had been asked without asking the question, I finally said, I consider her to be my partner, which is what they'd assumed. We went round and round for about an hour about how they "love" the person, but can't embrace the lifestyle, and therefore can't in good faith allow my daughter to attend their school. WOW! Of course in our rounds, I let them know that I understand and respect their personal beliefs about my lifestyle, howsumever, I am extremely disappointed in the "Church" because the main message of Bible, whether it was God inspired or not, is about Love, with no conditions. It's not about shunning those who do things that you don't agree with, Christianity is about opening your arms to everyone, the entire body of Christ, for essentialy none of us are without sin. So who the fuck are they to judge me - this is in my opinion THE sin. No one should be allowed to go to that school, because everyone there is a "sinner". He even had the nerve to say, "Yeah, I know, I sin is a sin is a sin." You Hypocritical fuckers! I thank God, the Father, that this happened before we got deep into the school year. I definitely do not want my child being influenced by such hyprocrits. I feel sorry for them and their children being that they will have to fight through, dig out of, all of the gunk, the religion, the hypocrisy, the judgemental attitudes, the discriminatory practices that they are being taught that is completely contradictory to the Bible. WAKE UP PEOPLE! Let's study to show ourselves approved. Let's listen to the Christ within us all, when something within in you is telling you that something isn't right - it's probably not.


Go to http://www.twopaths.com/faq_homosexuality.htm to get you started on your study. I found this amongst other articles very interesting at the very least. Mostly listen to heart, and look at yourself before you look outside yourself for the truth. Treat other's the way you'd like to be treated. Follow the most important commandment: Love your neighbors as yourself.

You've got to be kidding me...


WTF! This artist is literally known internationally as "Nigga". That is some bull$hit if ever I've seen some. This is just RETARDICULOUS! I, am actually at a loss for words on this one.

Obama vs. Clinton


I just don't know yet who I will vote for this year. What I do know in my bones is that who I vote for wont really matter much. Ok, I'm putting on one of my favorite hats right now: Conspiracy Theorist. I think there are a group of people worldwide who make all the decisions in relation to who is in power in each of the major countries in the world including the U.S. So, I vote so that I can write or gather with groups of people and voice my opinion in relation to politics. Now, that I've gotten that out of the way....Well, again, I think they are no different than most politicians in that they will lie to gain power, use propoganda to persuade the masses, use different tools to figure out what to say to what group of people to garner votes, etc, etc. So, I think I will search my self and try to determine for myself whether or not I and my unit would benefit more from having a black president or a woman president. Ok, Ok, I'm definitely not that simple nor am I that silly. Seriously though, let's quickly talk about my issues. Neither of these candidates supports same-sex marriage, they don't support a ban on it, and they do support civil unions. Whatever... On immigration they have the same views: give immigrants a legal path to citizenship, improve border security, improve enforcement of existing laws. Personally, I just feel like if I have to pay taxes, all of them should have to pay as well, period. On health care: Hillary's plan covers a bit more ground than Obama's plan. I understand that taxes in Canada are vast, howsumever ("however" for those ebonically challenged), I just beleive that everyone should have the right to be well taken care of should they need medical care of any kind, especially if the illness is life threatening. Barack wants to bring the troops home asap, I think Hillary does too if I can read in between the rhetoric; Barack has a leg up that he never voted to send them in the first place unlike Hillary. They both support abortion rights. I agree moreso with Obama's views on taxes than Hillary's. I gathered this information regarding the candidates views on different topics at: http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/issues/issues.abortion.html . Ahh Hell, I think I'll vote for Mickey Mouse or Stephen Colbert if their names are on the ballot....

Sad for so many reasons..


This touched me partly because he was the same age as I just turned a few days ago. Life can be so short. Any of us could be gone today. Love hard and Be happy every moment. God gave each of us the gift of time. Use it wisely....
