Arbitrary Thoughts
June 30th, 2011 - Arbitrary Thoughts - 57 Comments »+ So, last week I stumbled across this. Incredible. Also leads me to believe that a lot of people think I wear glasses because of my absurd avatar.
+ Favor: If you’ve read my book, would you be willing to spend 2.5 minutes leaving a review on Amazon? Just a couple honest sentences – good or bad. If so, click here.
+ Any writers out there using iA Writer? I’m on the verge of dropping $18 for it and need you to talk me out of it if it isn’t worth it.
+ Today is the last day to sign up for our Reluctant Runner July Challenge. If you use Nike+ and want in on the action, head over there and give me your email address. And while you’re there, read yesterday’s post about how using a jogging stroller is like making out in middle school.
+ I can’t wait for you to see a project Tripp and I are working on. It’s Tripp Crosby at his finest, and I promise you’ll want to watch over and over.
+ I know I talk all the time about Knox McCoy’s Bachelorette recaps, but one of my favorite elements is the readers’ opportunity to ridicule a certain contestant in the comments – kind of the opposite of Chuck Norris-isms, if you will. This week it’s Ryan.
Ryan can pinpoint any Yankee Candle scent
Ryan has nicknames for his friends’ moms
Ryan’s lips never touch while he chews gum
Ryan’s made sure his contract allowed him to sneak away every afternoon to catch Ellen
+ A friend of mine, Steve from NerdFitness.com, just did a talk at Google (yeah, the place where people like Conan and Tina Fey speak). Incredible. Proud of you Steve. Check it out here.
+ Today I’m giving away 3(!) autographed copies of my friend Jeremie’s new book, Leadership is Dead. You know the drill – answer the question in the comments and I’ll pick 3 winners at random.
Question: Name one song on your Top 10 Songs of All Time list.
I’ll go first.
