Four Good Ideas

I'm not going to say I'm a genius, but I'm not going to deny it either.

Four Good Ideas

Life can be a little rough when you are a Renaissance man such as myself. You wake up every morning with good ideas, but there is no good way to spread the ideas around. Today, I decided it's time to share some thoughts with the world ... Some ideas that will make the world an overall better place to live. Some of these bad boys have been in my head for a long time, so it will feel good to finally share. So here it it, four good ideas.

1. Mouse Trap: The Musical

Think back to your childhood. Remember all of the board games you loved playing? Monopoly, Candyland, Life, all of the classics. If you loved every board game you played growing up, then odds are you never played Mouse Trap. The traps never worked (at least for me). It always led to me being outsmarted by a couple of mice, which got me thinking. I think that a musical about a couple of mice stuck in a goofy mouse trap would be fun. I was thinking that there could be some personal issues with the mice (maybe there are four rival mouse gangs) and they solve their differences through song. Better yet, since they are stuck in a trap, there is no dancing. You might be thinking that this is a bad idea, but I think if a musical about a bunch of perverted cats can be popular, then a couple of mice learning about the happiness of life can become one too.

2. Smart Autocorrect

Not once in my entire life have I ever meant to send the word "ducking" to anyone. That's not a word. It has never been a word. Autocorrect is one of the biggest pains. Every time I text someone, my words get changed. Some times it's helpful ... if I type "safr" I'm happy that autocorrect knows I mean "safe." But if I type "damn," I don't want it changed to "Hoover Dam." How is that an appropriate switch? It's wack, man. Swearing happens, and until cell phones decide to acknowledge this, I'm going to continue witching about it to my girlfriend.

3. Fire Tennis

Wimbledon 2017 men's quarter-finalists: ranked

I think tennis is boring. I don't even know the rules. It also takes a lot of coordination, which I don't have. I'm not going to watch tennis, unless, they add fire to the mix. I feel like playing tennis inside a rectangle of fire would just be so magical. I understand it would be hard to do ... the tennis ball would always be on fire, but that just adds to the excitement. A tennis ball coming at you at 60 mph is scary, but a fire ball coming at you at 60 mph is even scarier, and that's what I want to watch.

4. Affordable Martial Arts

This guy needs a challenge! I know I'm excellent at all forms of martial arts, but no one ever wants to challenge me or accept my challenge, and I think I know why. Martial arts instructors probably charge an arm and a leg for lessons! How are people supposed to protect themselves from dragons and evil businessmen if they don't have training? It would be ludicrous to send people into battle without having trained them. Once we get affordable martial arts, we get a strong nation, and I get some people who are ready to step up.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
