New Year’s Resolutions

2011 is almost over.  It’s time to party and bring in the New Year.  With that comes the question what is your new year’s resolutions?  For some people, that resolution hasn’t change since 1990 but they get away with it because the same person doesn’t keep asking them every year.  Either that or they know you’re not going to stick with it.  Here are some things people may want to stay away from and things that might help get you to your goal.  If you are going to make a resolution to get back in shape start off slow then increase as you feel yourself getting more in shape.  Don’t go out on January 2 and get a membership to a gym or work out facility knowing the only time you will see the gym is when you walk or drive past it on your way to a fast food restaurant.  Also don’t go out and purchase those P90x workouts knowing you can’t walk one block without getting tired.  It’s going to be hard to explain and embarrassing why someone had to call the paramedics to your house because you thought you were hanging in there but blacked out.  If you are single, quit blaming everyone else but yourself on why you can’t find the right person.  Take a step back and figure out what it is that is keeping you from finding the right one for you.  Maybe it’s the sudden yelling outburst.  Or maybe that you’re a grown person and still picks your nose out in public.  Or maybe it’s the uncontrollable farting in public.  Stuff like that.  Also don’t set your standards so high that you let a good person go by.  There are others like getting money and having a drama free 2012.  The only thing I’m going to say on money is get it the right way.  Don’t be out here trying to be something that you are not.  Now you are in prison with some hardcore killers because you thought you were Nino Brown.  The only way to keep 2012 drama free is simple, don’t put yourself in those situations.  If you are over the age of 30, you should already know better.  Too many grown people are still acting like they are still in high school, WAKE UP!!!!

The power of the mind is amazing.  If you don’t believe me, think back to a time when you were in bad situation and remember how you were feeling at that moment.  Now do the same but with a positive situation.  The same goes with getting back into shape, finding “the one” for you and other things.  If you believe that you can do it, you will.  If you don’t believe, nothing will happen.  Whether you think you can or think you can’t, either way you are right.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool and see you next year.

Road Rage 2- Snow & Ice

It snowed over the weekend here in Minnesota aka MinneSNOWta which makes the roads slippery and with that comes the drivers who look like they just got their driver’s license.  I don’t understand how someone that has lived here for more than 3 years, knows how the roads get and still can’t drive this weather.  The reason I’ll give people at least 3 years is because if you are not familiar with driving in snow or on ice, the first year could be a demolition derby or crash course or however you want to describe it.  The second year may not be as bad after they took their lumps and messed up about 3 cars that first year.  If they learned from their mistakes, they would drive a little more cautious but within the speed limit, try to stay off the roads that are the worst and know how to control a vehicle on ice.  By the third year if it snows they won’t have a problem driving anywhere.  I understand that you need to be cautious in snowy or icy weather but how cautious is too cautious.  If you are only driving 10 mile per hour or lower if that is possible, that’s being a little too cautious and you’re probably going to get stuck depending on how much snow is on the ground.  And on the flip side of that, if you driving over 60 miles per hour on ice, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  What makes people think they can speed on ice?  People can’t be in that much of a hurry knowing it’s very slippery.  Another thing that bothers me and other people this time of year is the accidents after an accident.  For those of you that don’t know what I’m talking about, these are the people that cause an accident while staring at another accident because they are not paying attention to driving their own vehicle.  These types of accidents can happen any season but seems like they happen more often in the winter.  If you are driving by yourself and you see an accident, all it takes is a quick glance then you keep it moving.  You don’t need to stare for 5 minutes.  Now you’re mad because you have ran up the back of the car in front of you and smashed the front of your car.  If you have another person in the car, have them give you the blow by blow of what’s going on?  And if you are the other person in the car and you see the driver staring a little too hard, smack them in the head and tell them to keep their eyes on the road.  And last if you are not a good driver in the snow or on ice, you might want stay away from going up or down big hills.  There’s nothing worse than seeing someone stuck trying to get to the top of a hill and not know what to do.  It’s even worse to see someone panic and slam on to their brakes coming down a hill.  I’m pretty sure that everyone who has driven in snow or on ice has had that problem but its how you deal with that problem.  One thing you don’t do is press all the way down on the gas pedal trying to get up a hill because if you hit a dry area, your car is either going to take off and possibly go through the air like an action movie or you take out a few parked cars.  Same can be said about going down an icy hill.  Don’t slam on the brakes.

I don’t want to sound mean when I say this but if you grew up or have lived here for a long time, there’s really no excuse why you can’t drive in the winter.  I understand that accidents do happen but how they happen can be questioned.  Basically, be careful when driving on ice or snow and keep your eyes on the road.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time and I know it’s getting cold outside if you live in Minnesota but stay cool……………………Mentally.

Black Friday – The Aftermath

Another Black Friday has come and gone.  Hopefully everyone knows what Black Friday is but if you don’t, Black Friday is the first day after Thanksgiving that stores have a ton of sales but only have a certain amount of items available.  So if you ever hear anyone bypass Thanksgiving or look at Thanksgiving as the day before Black Friday now you know.  I bet there are a ton of people that are still recuperating from Black Friday.  Maybe they took an elbow to the ribs going for that toaster they wanted, a finger in the eye going for that camera they were looking at or got pepper sprayed by another irate customer for reaching for the same Tv.  It never fails that there’s a few stories that stick out.  The things that I hear and read about on Black Friday are reasons why you probably won’t see me out at a store at the crack of dawn or even out on that day.   First I’m not a morning person so waking up to be at a store at 5am is unheard of for me.  As a matter of fact doing anything around 5am other than going to work is unheard of for me.  And who in there right mind would sit in a chair all night or camp out in front of a store just to be the first to get what they are looking for?  Is it that serious?  For all that, it better be something for them and worth it.  I wouldn’t see it justified to do that for someone else just for them to say it’s not what they wanted But if that does happen, you should rip one of their sleeves off of their shirt, get them an elbow to the side of their head or spray them with pepper spray just so they would know how it felt the day you fought your way in the store to get them something.  Speaking of pepper spray, someone would actually pepper spray another person or people while in the store, WHAT WAS THAT.  Did they feel that threatened by the other person to spray them?  Or were they doing that just so the other people wouldn’t get that last microwave?  You never know what goes through a person’s head at that time.  If you are a timid or paranoid person that you have to pepper spray someone in a store, you shouldn’t have been there.  Another thing is my patience in a parking lot is very low.  If I can’t find a parking spot in at least five to ten minutes at the most, it’s a wrap.  So if I ever decided to go to a store on Black Friday, someone else will have to drive unless they have patience like me because the time limit maybe even shorter on Black Friday or during the holidays period.  I’m getting better with my patience in the parking lot though.  And last I’m also not a fan of big crowds and rude people.  Not into getting bumped into by someone and then have them look at me like I did it on purpose.  With that being said, if I was reaching for the last Blu-Ray player and someone comes out of no where tries push me over to get that, it may get ugly.  They might have to use pepper spray just to get me off that person.  So one false move and it could go down in the store if you know what I mean.

It’s amazing what some people determine as important.  It’s also funny to see how far people would go to get what they want.  This year was the first time I heard pepper spray being used and it wasn’t the police.  I hope everyone got what they went to that store.  If not, you pretty much wasted gas on a blank journey.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Happy Thanksgiving

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving.  For some families that celebrate Thanksgiving, it’s a time give thanks to what they have, spend time with the extended family if they are in town and for the sports nut men and women in the family, to watch the football games all day.  But it’s also the kick off to the holiday season.  For some families, it kicks off the first leg of the ugly sweater contest Thanksgiving edition.  I really don’t get how some people get a sweater that makes them look like an over sized turkey and think that is fashionable.  Do those people realize that there are ugly sweater contest that they would probably dominate.  The bad thing is that the designers make money because some people just buy those sweaters just for ugly sweater parties and contests.  Another event that has really been magnified because of a show is eating.  It has taken on another meaning with Man vs. Food on.  I have a feeling some people are going to create their own personal challenges. How fast can I eat the whole turkey before anyone notices or can they eat two pies in 15 minutes.  And finally what every man and some women do on Thanksgiving is watch the football games before, after or even during the football games.  Now depending on when they eat and how much they eat, it could turn into you watching the game or the game watching you.  Hopefully the games will be good this year so then they don’t fall asleep.

I may joke a lot and point out certain things but I’m really thankful for waking up everyday, for my family, friends, making people laugh without offending anyone and the support I’m getting from people who have read my blog.  I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Wake Up 2

I know it has been a while since I wrote a blog.  There has been a lot going on so I decided to write another WAKE UP blog. I just have a few more random thoughts to get off of the brain again.  It finally snowed here in Minnesota over the weekend and I’m still seeing people wearing sandals, WAKE UP.  There is snow on the ground and it’s cold outside but people are still wearing sandals.  I know it didn’t snow that much but if there snow on the ground, it should be time to put the sandals up until next spring. Maybe their feet are as tough as raw hide.  And if they are that rough, would you want them to rub their feet up against you while watching a movie?  Stuff like that makes me want to throw a snowball at certain people.  And speaking of open toe shoes for women, why do women still wear stocking with open toe shoes?  Isn’t that running the risk that you might tear your stockings with those razor blades that you call toe nails?  Then you are wondering why your foot is cold because your toes sliced through your stockings.  And finally for the women, is sequin still in style? I’m not talking about just the design on the shirt but the whole shirt is sequin.  Whenever the light hits your shirt, you are blinding everybody in that area with you shirt.  Men, if I see another man wearing a scarf with a short sleeve shirt thinking that’s a nice style, I’m going to choke them with their own scarf.  When you take your coat off, take the damn scarf off too.  You’re not a celebrity.  If you are between the ages of a high school kid to a grown person, STOP WEARING LITTLE KIDS BACKPACKS!!!!  It makes no sense to see high school senior or a so-called grown person wearing an Elmo from

Sesame Street

backpack, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Do they know how stupid that looks?   You are big as hell with a little backpack made for LITTLE KIDS.  That just shows how many followers are around instead of leaders.

There are so many things that make you want to say WAKE UP.  As a society, we all need to realize that.  If you wear a backpack made for little kids and then wonders why you are treated like a little kid. And as for as the still wearing sandals in the winter time someone really needs to step on your foot in some big moon boots.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool.

Liquid Courage

For those of you who don’t know what liquid courage is, it’s a little extra confidence someone gets after a certain amount of alcohol is consumed.  Now with that being said, you might see a lot of things when you go out that probably make more sense if you know what condition some of the people were in.  Here are things to avoid or help to avoid if you are a true friend.  Liquid courage will not get you a record deal.  No matter if you think you sound like Keyshia Cole and try to play every one of her songs in the juke box or request them from the Dj, to everyone else at the bar you sound like Keyshia No.  Diddy or Jay-Z is not walking through those doors to give you a record deal.  Liquid courage will not make you stronger.  So if you are 5’3” 105 pounds wet, just because after a few drinks you think you take the guy at the end of the bar who is 6’5” 240, chances are you might be calling 911 to have the paramedics remove his shoe from your butt.  Liquid courage will not give you sex appeal.  Instead of you thinking you are looking sexy and everyone is looking at you because you good.  What they are really saying while they are laughing is “Did you just that drunk chick fall?”  One of the only good things liquid courage does for you is gives you confidence to talk to that man or woman you have been looking at all night.  Depending on your condition at the time you make your move will determine whether or not you are getting that number.  If you are slurring and spitting in the person’s face as you are talking, you might or will get a drink thrown on you.  If you can compose yourself to look somewhat decent, you might lucky and get that number.

It’s amazing to see how much more confidence someone has after a few drinks.  Now what they do with that confidence can be hilarious as well.  Just make you sure you don’t hear these words the next day from a friend “I can’t believe you did that last night.”  Also make sure that if you do have liquid courage running through you system that you have ride home and don’t climb your drunk butt behind the wheel of a vehicle.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

After Halloween

I remember the last thing I said in my Before Halloween blog was choose your costume wisely.  I think I’m going to vent a little bit.  I really don’t understand why people want to get their sexy back on Halloween of all days but don’t regularly dress like that.  And it’s not just women, men were trying to act like they were super models in what looked like a little kids costume, WHAT WAS THAT.  It’s just not right seeing a grown man wearing basketball shorts like he played basketball in 1950 when he is 5’8” and weighs 280, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  You know it’s cool to be very creative with your costume but it’s not creative when it takes you 30 minutes to get in a costume just to cut it off of yourself when you are done with it.  Women, I warned you to cover up what ever you didn’t want be seen.  If you suffer from noassatall, don’t wear a short skirt.  That only looks like you have a very long back with a crack in it.  And to the ones with too much junk in the trunk, don’t wear a short skirt either.  It’s not covering everything up back there and you are getting the married men in trouble for staring.  Another thing, not everyone wants to see your chest.  No matter if they are real, real fake or hang like 2 hot water bottles, Cover them up.  You are not Janet Jackson.  If you were to have a wardrobe malfunction, you won’t get a lot of attention.  The only attention you will get is when you get kick out of the party.  Finally to some parents you get a big YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT for letting your kids go out as a school girl, Lady Gaga or any celebrity where clothing is optional.  I wanted to kick those parents in the knees and chop them in the throat for that.  I really don’t know what else to say about that.

Shout out to everyone who put real thought into there costume and kept it clean to a certain degree if they were with kids.  If you were one of those people who only had costume just to try to win a costume contest and not just to have fun and party, chances are you probably didn’t win the contest.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  I’m also starting to put some funny quotes on there as well.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Before Halloween

Halloween is a couple of days away.  Most people have already gotten their costumes and are ready for the parties or work.  To the ones who haven’t gotten their costumes yet, here are a few tips that you might want to take into consideration.  Is it just me or women’s costumes starting to expose more and more each year?  With that being said to the big women out there, if you are thinking of going that route you might want to put something else either on top or under your costume to cover up what you don’t want to be showing.  Either that or you really shouldn’t have bought that costume.  Now you’re trying to drop it like it’s hot at a party and all of a sudden you’re ripping out of your costume like the incredible hulk and find yourself showing something that shouldn’t be seen in public.  Another good tip for women is to try to stay away from outfits like a school girl, girl scout or cheerleader.  Then you wonder why we have some child molesters out here looking at little girls because of what they saw on Halloween.  Men, try to stay away from wearing a super hero costume.  That’s just your alter ego talking and wanting to come out one night without people calling them crazy.  Dressing up as aqua man is not a good look just because you think you are him and want to play in the tub.  And I don’t want to see any man wanting to be a chip n dale dancer, STOP THE MADNESS!!!!  They were chosen to be that for a reason.   Parents, stay away from dressing your kids like certain celebrities.  I saw a show where these parents dressed their kids up like Julia  Roberts in Pretty Women knowing she played a prostitute in the movie and Dolly Parton with fake boobs and fake butt for a competition, WHAT THE **** WAS THAT!!!!  What are you teaching your kids by doing that? Are the parents dressing the kids like that because they can’t?

Halloween is a time to dress up, be creative with your costume and have fun with your friends.  Remember kids want to be what they see on Halloween so choose your costumes wisely.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong

The reason I’m calling this blog that is because I see too many people who think they tough only when they are with a group of friends, want to talk tough on the phone aka telephone tough guy or do things to people they think they can get away with it but are quiet as a mouse when they are around certain people.  And it goes so well with what I’m writing.  I saw a few of those moments when it went wrong.  I saw someone throw an empty plastic bottle at a guy on a motorcycle, WHAT WAS THAT.  Now I don’t know what was going through that person’s head for them to throw the bottle and throw it at someone else or why they chose to throw it at someone on a motorcycle.  But I’m pretty sure they weren’t expecting the other person to turn around and come back.  So instead of standing there to see what was going to happen, they decided to duck in a restaurant not knowing the person on the motorcycle saw where they went.  You know someone was about to get there ass beat when you see someone go out of a door you’re not supposed to go out of.  I was hoping to see the some action but never did.  Another time was when I saw someone get put to sleep.  When you run your mouth while you are drinking and not paying attention to your friends going outside to smoke or to the restroom, you might want to chill out and be aware of where your friends are at.  Now they are coming back from the restroom and outside smoking to find you laid out on the ground.  Too much liquid courage in your system now you are getting carried out of the bar talking about what happen.

Those are just few situations that happen when keeping it real goes wrong.  I’m sure that people have a lot more and I’ll probably have some more to tell you as well.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool

What you see is what you get

What you see is what you get can be one of the realest thing that comes out of a person’s mouth these days but only if you ask the right questions.  Well some people would say that is giving too much information when you do not really know the person yet and I would say you are right to a certain degree about that but then you might want to tell the person you are talking to and getting to know about your alter ego before they find out by surprise.  Now you look confused when they do not want to talk to you no more because they met batman when you were trying to hang from the ceiling fan, WHAT WAS THAT.  Or let them know you are a thrill seeker.  They were thinking you were being romantic one evening by going on a helicopter ride but you forgot to tell them until they were getting in the helicopter that you are going to be jumping out of the helicopter.  Now you are mad because they smacked you upside your head before running to their car.  Or let them know you like to wear wigs and your hair is really short.  Now you are mad because when you open your door, he looked at you and ran to his car because you did not tell him you look like Grace Jones without your wigs.   And what happens when what they tell you, you don’t take them seriously?  And how could you take them seriously?  If someone told you that they are a nudist and only wear clothes to work or on a date, would you believe them or wait until they answer their front door in nothing but slippers and glasses.  Or they don’t believe in deodorant, perfume or soap.  Now you’re trying to figure out who smells like hot garbage in the restaurant.

There are many scenarios with this one both good and bad.  The main reason for this is to keep it real.  A lot of people think they have to put on a fake personality or something they do not normally do or leave out certain details for others to like them.  Be yourself, crazy or not because that all you know how to be.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool  

Loud Perfume/Cologne

How can you describe the scent of too much perfume or cologne on someone other than being loud?  I don’t mean loud as in a high volume of sound that could hurt your ears.  I’m talking about loud in terms of if a person has too much perfume or cologne on that the scent makes your eyes water.  I’m talking about so loud that when that person leaves the room, the scent lingers for hours in that room after they are long gone.  Now you have to keep a door or window open with a fan going so you head won’t hurt from inhaling the fumes like paint.  Don’t get me wrong, using perfume or cologne is a sign that a person takes care of themselves, shows some style and depending on what kind of perfume or cologne people wear how much money they have or wish they had.  But what do you say to someone who uses way too much?  Everyone has encountered someone like that.  If not, chances are you are that person that I’m talking about.  You have to have an incredibly bad sense of smell to not know how loud you smell or just don’t care how loud you smell.  If you do have a bad sense of smell and don’t think you smell loud, take a look around the room and see how many people’s eye is watering or people starting get headaches because there is no decent ventilation in the room at the next meeting.  They are not crying because they think your presentation was that good or head hurts because they may be hungry.  What ever happen to just a few squirts of perfume or cologne could last you all day?  Now we have people who smell like they take a bath in it.  And what I can’t stand is when someone that smell very loud hugs you and their scent seems to overtake the scent of whatever you have on now people are looking at you like you stink.  Or when someone walks by and the smell hits you.  Now that person got you smelling yourself as if you walked through the perfume isle at the store.

I really don’t know what to say about that other than if you think you need that much perfume or cologne, maybe you should take a better shower or bath or whatever you do to wash your ass.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool

WAKE UP!!!!

This is a chance to get whatever is bothering me off my chest and into writing at this moment.  It may be some very random thoughts.  My first random thought is if you are going to the mall or on a date with a woman, you shouldn’t wear a fitted hat that is too small for your big head and afro, a sweat shirt, baggy jeans with holes in them and sandals with some off white socks because they are dirty, WHAT THE **** IS THAT!!!!  Isn’t it in one way a man’s job to impress the woman with how they dress?  And that’s not saying too much about her taste either if she is out with him looking like that or she just won’t say anything and not talk to him again after the date.  To the parents of elementary school age kids, I understand that some of you have some pretty independent minded kids but please make sure that your child or children are dressed properly before they leave the house for school.  There’s no reason for your child to come out of the house with one of those stocking cap that you only see their eyes with a dress on looking like a serial killer at recess. And parents remember coordination.  Don’t have the kid coming out in something wouldn’t even wear as a kid.  Got the kids out with an orange flower shirt with some bright red pants and blue socks, WHAT WAS THAT.  Put some matching outfits out for them and have them choose one of them to wear.  Help them out a little.  And last, when was it ever fashionable to come out of the house still wearing pajama pants and slippers?  That deserves a WHAT WAS THAT and a YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Only two things I can think of when you come out in pajama pants is one you really don’t care how you look that’s probably why you don’t have a boyfriend or girlfriend and two you probably didn’t wash your stinking ass before you left the house.  If your feet hurt that bad that you wear house slippers in public, maybe it’s time to go see a foot doctor.  That’s not a good look walking around the mall in some torn up house slippers with some ashy feet.  WAKE UP!!!!!

That actually felt good to let that out.  People need to wake up and realize if you want people to care about you, you need to care about yourself.  And parents if you have a good fashion sense make sure you kids do too.  They don’t need to copy you style.  Just make sure they coordinate there outfits.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Road Rage

There is nothing funny about road rage.  Oh wait, yeah there is as long as no one gets hurt.  The sight of a grown person having a temper tantrum in their car like a little kid is hilarious.  But what causes road rage?  I’ve came up with some ways that could help prevent road rage from both ends as an angry impatient driver or the timid driver that the impatient driver is angry at.  First, if you are a timid driving meaning you act very nervous and scared when driving anything and drive way under the speed limit, you shouldn’t be driving.  As a matter of fact, how do those people pass their driving test?  And who was the instructor?  If you don’t know where you are going, get directions and map quest or GPS where you are going.  There is nothing worse than being behind someone who doesn’t know where they are going.  Now you are hitting your break every block now because the car in front of you is looking for a certain street and the person behind you is getting mad and having a temper tantrum.  Now from the other side, if people would give themselves enough time to get where they need to go, they would have to run up the back of the car in front of them or swerving in & out of traffic on a one lane street.  If you leave yourself some time and be patient, there won’t be any need to scream at the top of your lungs in your car because the timid driver in front of you is going 15 miles per hour.  One thing that both sides make it worse for road rage is merging into on-coming traffic.  Here’s the difference, the timid driver would cut you off as they are driving very slow and they might be paying attention to the car in the next lane.  As you past them and look over to their car, they usually are too scared to even look at you.  The impatient driver will cut you off as they zoom past you knowing who is in the next lane.  If you are able to catch up to them and look over at them, they are looking right back at you daring you to say something or give them the finger.

There are a lot of things that could easily be prevented if people would just take a step back & think, is it really worth it.  It’s amazing how the little thing things turn into huge problems.  Be patient.  Life is too short to dwell over petty stuff.  Follow me Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool

Fall Season Confusion

It’s officially fall in the state of Minnesota but it has been feeling like summer for September and part of October so far.  With that being said, there has been a large amount of confusion on what to wear during this time.  There are people mixing two seasons into one that are making for some very interesting combinations.  I saw a guy standing at the bus stop with a stocking cap, t-shirt and shorts, WHAT WAS THAT.  The problem was its 80 degrees and he had a stocky cap on like there was a chance for flurries in 80 degree weather.  I also saw a guy wearing a sports coat, button up shirt, slacks and sandals, WHAT WAS THAT.  If he was standing on the corner to cross the street, I think I would have ran over his ashy toes for that one.  And guys quit wearing boots with shorts.  This is not New York or a music video from the 90’s.  Women are not too far behind when it comes to wearing boots with shorts.  I’m talking about any type of boots for woman.  Ladies be patient the snow will be falling soon.  Why walk out of the house like that?  And who said that was fashionable?  That’s not a good look wearing Uggs with some short shorts suffering from noassatall (space it out).  On the flip side ladies, why wear an over sized sweatshirt with short shorts?  Now you look like all you have on is a sweatshirt unless you lift that up to show you have some shorts on.  That makes no sense.

There’s nothing like living in Minnesota or maybe any state where it’s officially fall season but still feels like summer.  I can only imagine what other styles that other states have.  Hopefully I will have a chance to travel and see what outrageous styles are out there without seeing them on TV.  Follow me on Twitter @ wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Fat Moment 3: Eating at a Buffet Restaurant

It’s not uncommon when you go to any buffet restaurant that you may see a lot of plates at people’s tables as you walk to your table.  Now here’s the question, how many times did they get up to get those plates?  I know I probably sound like a broken record by saying this, fat moments can happen whether you are big or small.  A lot of small think just because you are small but eat enough for three people, you get away with it because you are small.  Not when I’m around you won’t get away with it.  There’s no reason to make only one trip to get some food and come back to the table with more than one plate of food.  I saw a person going back to their table with four plates stacked with food, WHAT WAS THAT.  They looked like a waiter bringing the table its food.  Some people fail to realize that it’s a buffet restaurant.  The food is going nowhere unless you are at a nasty restaurant.  If you see one piece of chicken, be patient.  They know the chicken is running low and they will be bringing more chicken out.  There should be no reason for you to cut in front of someone in a buffet line to get a piece of chicken.  Now you’re about to get in a fight with a senior citizen in the buffet line over a piece of chicken.  That’s not a good look getting jumped by a group of seniors with canes because other seniors will come to another senior’s rescue and getting kicked out of a buffet restaurant.

When going to a buffet restaurant remember to pace yourself.  Why grab three plates right away and then realize you can’t finish the third because your eyes were bigger than your stomach.  Another thing to remember is patience.  If they see a family that resembles the Klumps, they are ready to move fast to get the food out.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool

What Was That?

I think it’s about time for me to come up with my own catch phrase instead using someone else’s even though  it seems to work for what I’m writing. It’s time to change it up just a little bit but keep it moving. Have you ever seen something and thought I really didn’t just see that?  Those moments I’m going to start calling WHAT WAS THAT moments.  There will still be some You Need Your Ass Beat moments.  Here are a few I have seen that are WHAT WAS THAT moments.  I saw someone wearing some baggy high water jeans, WHAT WAS THAT.  Did they not try the jeans on before they left the store?  And why didn’t someone say something to them about his jeans.  That can’t be a style.  Another was I saw someone with finger waves, WHAT WAS THAT.  I thought this was 2011 not 1991.  What’s next, the jheri curl will make come back?  And speaking of hair, since when did having neon color hair become a fashion?  Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga got these women out here looking very wrong.  Women, one thing to remember if you are a darker skinned person you might want to stay away from the bright color hair because at night, it will look like an invisible person with bright hair walking by.  Stick to just highlights in your hair.  I saw a person driving a car with a helmet on, WHAT WAS THAT.  From the outside looking in, that didn’t look right.  I mean if you need to wear a helmet while driving a car, you shouldn’t be able to operate anything.  I know that I don’t know the whole story but for real.  And last, I saw two guys on a motorcycle, WHAT WAS THAT.  Need I say more?  That’s not a good look on so many levels.

It has a while since I have written a new blog and I appreciate everyone who has checked out my blog, passed it on to your friends and spread the word.  It also make me feel good that I haven’t pissed that many people off  too.  I’m going to keep going until the wheels completely fall off and even then I’ll find a way to keep it moving.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Fat Moment 2: Knowing what to say

I have said it before, there is nothing wrong with being on the chunky side.  Most people don’t want a skinny woman or man.  I call it having a chunk of love.  As a big person though, there are certain things you shouldn’t say when you are around a lot of people or ordering food.  One thing is saying I’m really not that hungry but let me get a number 1 super sized with a diet coke, two double cheese burgers and two apple pies.  Ok, first keep it real.  If you are coming into a fast food restaurant about to do damage to some food, do your thing.  But don’t say I’m really not that hungry but order the whole left side of the menu.  That’s not a good look.  Another thing that I have heard is I really need to watch what I eat but they are standing in line at Dairy Queen.  Things like that make you want to say, really you just realized while standing in the line at Dairy Queen that you need to watch what you eat?  Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a small guy and have had many fat moments.  I’ll let you know I’m about wreck some food and won’t be ashamed to say it.  But you won’t hear me say I need to watch what I eat before or after I just ate a large pizza and drank a two liter of soda.  And finally, when I heard this I wanted to throw a soda on that person for saying this.  The person was eating and said I shouldn’t eat one more bite because I don’t want to get any bigger.  YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  I don’t care if it’s a joke or you are trying to be funny but if you are sitting at a table with your gut hanging out, you really shouldn’t say something like that.

Whether you are big or small, you should know what to say and not to say in public.  What makes it funny sometimes is that they realized what they have said but it’s too late.  To most, it doesn’t bother them and they keep it moving.  To others, they will have that look as to say I can’t believe I just said that.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

MN State Fair

The MN State Fair aka The Great Minnesota Get Together and after what I saw this year and it previous years it should be called The Great Minnesota Get  Together of Uncoordinated Misfits, they need to have not only rules and regulations for the fair but maybe a dress code for the fair like the nightclubs.  Before I get into the severe dress code violation, I want to talk about other things I saw like kids on leashes.  Everybody has seen this before at the mall or a park or anywhere.  I would never in a million year put a leash on my kids or anyone for that even if that was your freaky thing.  Some of these parents crack me up.  You mean to tell me you have no control over a 3 year old kid that you need to put a leash on?  YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  What ever happen to the speech that kids used to get before even getting out of the car?  I’m not the only one that got that speech.  If you can’t keep an eye on your kids at a fair, you don’t need to be there or bring them.  And how would you like having a leash on as a parent?  Wait, the way some people are these days, they might like it with their freaky butts.  Moving on, back to the dress code violations at the fair.  I’m saying this as a man that has seen enough in only one day, FANNY PACKS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL!!!!  If you are not in the medical field or a lifeguard at a swimming pool, you should not be allowed to wear those. I’m not saying that whoever invented fanny packs was wrong but there are too many types of bags, purses or backpacks in this day and age to put a fanny pack to rest.  There should be a rule that if you see anyone with a fanny pack on, you should have the right to karate chop that person in the throat and beat them with their own fanny pack.  It is 2011 not 1981.  Another thing that I saw was women in boots at the fair.  It is the state fair not the nightclub.  When you think of a fair, you think of a lot of walking and being hot depending on the weather.  Who are you trying to impress at a state fair?  They don’t give out awards for walking the longest distance with boots on in 90 degree weather.  And last, if you know that you are going to the fair, wouldn’t you think you would put a little more thought into what you are going to wear.  I mean if it is going to be hot, you wouldn’t wear a long sleeve shirt or if you knew it would be a little chilly, you would bring a light weight coat or sweat shirt.  But don’t come to the fair looking like you just rolled out of bed, headed to a nightclub or your color coordination is way off.  Why do people think pajama pants are fashionable in public?  What makes it sad, it is grown adults that are doing it.  They need to be dropped kicked back to sleep for that.  There’s no need to dress to impress at the fair.  It is 90 degrees outside and you want to come to the fair in a long sleeve button up and leather pants.  You deserve to pass out from heat exhaustion wearing that to the fair.  A word of advice, a tie dye shirt, plaid shorts and tan socks with black shoes does not go together.  Take your butt back home and put on some solid colors.  And make sure everything fits from the shirt down to your shoes or sandals.  I don’t think I need to repeat myself, all I’m going to say is to read some of my other blogs like BIG PEOPLE/little clothes and Big feet/little sandals or flip flops.  But I did see something new.  If your foot is oozing off the side of your sandals or flip flops like cooking dough oozing off of a table, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!

There are people that dress to stand out at the fair and make a statement.  Then there are people that don’t want to make a statement but do for all the wrong reasons.  Follow me on Twtter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

End of Summer Review 2011

It is coming down to the last few days of summer.  Kids will be going back to school and parents will be very happy their kids are going back to school because the kids were getting on their last good nerve.  A lot of kids and some adults will be starting or going back to college.  Now it’s time to put away some of the dress code violations that almost took over the summer.  Just to name a few like the too short shorts for women.  If you have to keep pulling on your shorts every time you get up from sitting down or move, you shouldn’t be wearing them.  As a matter of fact, you knew you shouldn’t have put them on before you left the house but now it’s too late to change, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Another thing that bothered me with some of these clothes women were wearing was short or too short shirt but they have their arms around their stomach like they were hugging themselves.  Why wear a shirt if you are not comfortable in it?  You need your ass beat for buying that shirt.  Men, it’s time put away the skinny jean short and thong flip flops you bought at the dollar store.  I have a feeling that the skinny jean fad will fizzle out one day and men will finally come to their senses.  And when did cut off jean short come back in style?  As far as the flip flops, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!  You’re a grown man wearing sky blue thong flip flops that you bought at the dollar store but try to say you bought them somewhere else.  I want to step on your ashy feet for that.  Also men, quit wearing too little baseball caps.  You look like you stole that hat from your little brother and makes your head look big as hell.  How do you go from wearing your hat too big to wear them too small?  Another thing that bothered me about some men was the very loud colors they were wearing.  If it was just the shirt, that’s cool.  If it was just the shorts, that’s cool.  But wearing both shirt and shorts, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Coming out of the house looking like a bright neon color fluorescent light bulb.  And finally, I don’t mind seeing men or women wearing sandals with socks.  Key word is sandals not flip flops. There is a difference.  But don’t wear long socks with sandals or sleepy socks with sandals.  Sleepy socks are socks that don’t stay up because the elastic is stretched out.  And men, same rules apply to you as to women about wearing the right size sandals.

Fall is rapidly approaching and next thing you know it, the snow will be falling.  There will be some bad cross over season’s dress code violations like winter coats and sandals, boots and shorts.  Look out for those blogs as well as others.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.

Nasty A** People

Have you seen someone do something that you thought was nasty and thought to yourself, did they really just do that?  I’m not talking about something you do at home because some people do the some of the nastiest stuff at home like clip their toe nails while you are eating popcorn.  Hasn’t happen to me but just saying.  I’m talking about out in public, at a park, a restaurant or anywhere out for that matter.  One of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to nasty people is when someone blows their nose at the dinner table or at a restaurant.  How hard is it to excuse your nasty butt from the table and go to the restroom rather than blow your nose in a crowded restaurant or at the dinner table, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  I wish I could stab them with a rusty butter knife for that or spill a soda on them.  What ever happen to the “5 second rule”?  And does it apply at certain restaurants?  This is one of those moments when you just so happen to look up from having your face all in your food and look up to see someone pick up something off of the floor.  My thing is, how do you not know anyone is looking.  Unless it’s the last bite of food and within 5 seconds, you might as well take a lose on that food when it hits the floor.  Now, must people that know me know that I can’t stand feet so when I see someone sitting at the bus stop picking at their foot, it makes me want to hop the curb and run them over.  You couldn’t have found anything else to do while waiting for the bus like read a book, play a game on your phone or even people watch, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  You know, that may need more than that, how about SMACK YOURSELF with that hand you were picking your foot with you nasty butt.  One of the funniest things to see but still nasty is catching someone picking their nose at a stop light or driving.  What makes it funny is when they look over to see if anyone is looking, their finger is still in their nose.  You couldn’t have used a piece of tissue to blow your nose when the car is stopped?  Instead you decided to go gold digging and got caught.  What were you going to do if you struck gold anyway?  I’m surprise they didn’t hit a bump and get their finger stuck.

There’s not much that creeps or grosses me out.  As a kid, I was taught that if you need to blow your nose, excuse yourself from the dinner table.  It’s sign of respect to not gross everyone out at the table or in the restaurant.  I have a feeling this is just the start of a few more nasty people moments.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Haircuts and Hairstyles

I remember when men would go to the barbershop and get just a regular haircut like a fade, get a line up or a trim.  Same with women when they go to the hair salon they would get braids, a decent hairstyle, get their ends clipped, get some highlights or even get some weave put in.  Even some of the old school haircuts are coming back like the high top fade or having your name or other words cut into your hair.  But these days, it’s crazy what some of these people are coming into the barbershops or hair salons asking for or even what they do to their hair after they leave the shop.  Since when did the mohawk haircut make such a comeback?  And when was it ever in style?  And who decided to put different color hair dye in their hair with it and cut words on the side like the old school regular haircuts?  They should have “Something is wrong with me, HELP ME!!!!” cut in the side if they have a mohawk.  They look like Mr. T on drugs.  Men if you need to use an afro pick for your mohawk, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!  I understand if some guys do it for a sport or something short term.  And Wiz Khalifa got all these kids and some adults putting yellow dye in their hair.  But what would you do if you were to spill the dye in your hair?  Now you look like a circus clown without the make-up.  And why are some women getting fades or just cutting one side of their hair.  Word of advice, just like some men with mohawks, just because Amber Rose looks good with a very short hairstyle doesn’t mean you do.  If your head is shaped like a bullet, football or a cone head women, you shouldn’t cut all your hair off.  If you still try to pull it off with you head looking like a bullet, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  This is where you will know who your true friends are because they would tell you that’s not a good look.  Some women look very good with a short haircut.  Also with these sometimes weird hairstyles, I’m starting to see a somewhat role reversal in terms of hair.  I’ve seen men with long dreads & braids talking to women with fades & mohawks.  Wow, is this what the world is coming to?

Haircuts and hairstyles are just like what I was talking with clothes, they all don’t go with everybody.  Celebrities are also victims of bad haircuts and hairstyles too.  Just because you see someone else with haircut doesn’t mean you need to get it.  Be yourself and except who you are.  The only person that can change what you are or want to be is you.  Be a leader not a follow.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool.

Little guys in TOO BIG clothes

I had to talk about the big people for wearing too small clothes because it was getting a little out of hand.  Now it’s time to get on the little guys.  Little guys, why do you feel the need to buy and wear the biggest shirt and pants in the store?  Do you think you will eventually grow into them one day?  Do you feel that wearing big clothes will help with your little guy complex?  What is the reason for that?  If you are 5’3” or smaller and not even weigh 105 pounds soaking wet, why do you need to have a 3XLT shirt with some 38 waist jeans?  Correction, why are wearing a 4XLT shirt under 2XLT shirt with some 38 waist jeans and a belt that hangs down to your ankles, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Really, you couldn’t find anything closer to your own size to fit you at all?  Not only that, why are you even in the big & tall section anyway knowing you should be in the kids section at JC Penny looking for a extra medium shirt?  And who told you that looked good?  They need to get slapped.  That’s like Spud Webb wearing Shaq’s clothes.  You could fit you and another person into them clothes.  If your shirt looks like a long sleeve dress, you shouldn’t be wearing it.  It’s not a good look when you have to cuff your jeans more than four times or seeing you back pockets at your ankles.  I’m surprised that any little guy with too big clothes on doesn’t turn into a kite when it’s windy outside.  If I was a real big guy, I would literally step on every little guy with oversized clothes on.  Maybe that’s why bigger guys wear smaller shirts because the little guys have taken all the big sizes.  It’s like a role reversal in terms of clothes.

You would think after a certain age, they would eventually snap out of it and buy some clothes that fit just a little loose.  Then they would sound like the older generations when they look at old pictures and say “What in the hell was I thinking to wear that”.

Skinny Jeans

First, let me clarify who I am talking about before women think I’m talking about them.  I’m talking about any guy under the age of 30 because I don’t think and I hope anyone over the age of 30 wear those.  Men, what in the hell were you thinking when you decided to make skinny jeans fashionable?  Back in the day when they were not called skinny jeans they were called hip huggers or tight jeans and not tight meaning they look good, you would get talked about.  I guess not much has changed because I’m talking about whoever wears skinny jeans.  Maybe it’s because of the wrong guys are wearing them.  If it takes you more than ten minutes just to put skinny jeans on, you shouldn’t be wearing them.  How does it take more than ten minutes to put them on and only pulled up just below your butt with a belt that you really don’t use but for fashion?  If you are one of those guys that wear an extra small shirt that only comes to your waist but you pants are below your butt, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Quit stealing your little brother’s shirts or buying too little shirts.  If you are over 250 pounds or look like an offensive lineman for the Minnesota Vikings, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Do you know how bad you look in skinny jeans?  Key word is SKINNY.  Anyone that works in a clothing store and see a big guy try to buy some skinny jeans, call security and have them because it would probably take more than one security guard since it’s a big guy throw his big butt out of the store like Jazzy Jeff used to on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.  If you wear size 13 shoes or bigger, you shouldn’t be wearing skinny jeans either.  You look like you have some skies on.

I understand people want to have their own style but what should you do if the style you choose doesn’t fit you.  Be comfortable in what you wear so you don’t have keep a hold on your jeans while walking.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool.

Improper Swimsuits

In one of my first blogs, I talked about the difference between a one piece swimsuit and a two piece swimsuit.  I think I need to go more in depth in terms of a two piece swimsuit for women and swim trunks for men because I have been seeing some sights that have been hurting my eyes.  If you are over the age of 50, you shouldn’t be wearing a two piece swimsuit.  If you still have nice body that’s cool and good job on taking care of yourself but there is no shame in wearing a one piece swimsuit.  But if you look like a wrinkled leaf and know it, there is no way in hell you should have a two piece swimsuit on.  If you are between the ages of 12 &17, you shouldn’t be able to wear a two piece swimsuit.  Here is why, the way some of these young ladies are developing early is crazy.   If you are a parent that buys your over developed daughter a two piece swimsuit but gets mad because all of these old perverts are looking at her and trying to talk to her, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  Why buy that knowing you are going to flip out and are not comfortable with them having that on?  Or are you one of those parents that don’t know what your kids buy until you see them wear it?  Now, to the men out there when wearing swim trunks, I have 2 words for you, CRACK KILLS!  Can you please make sure your swim trunks are pulled up and tied up?  That goes double for all the big men out there.  We don’t need to see all that.  Also men, if your trunks come above your thigh, it’s time to buy some new trunks and get rid of those old ones.  And again we don’t need to see all of that.  If you are still wearing swim trunk that you got when you were 6 and you are 14 now, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  And to the parents of that kid, why let them still put those on?

As an adult, you know how your body looks and what looks good on your body.  As a parent, you don’t need to be so strict on what your kids wear but you should be at least a little cautious.  Lead by example by not wearing clothes that you really shouldn’t be wearing.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool

People and their vehicles

Shouldn’t you have to be a certain height to drive an SUV?  How short do you have to be before you realize you are almost honking your own horn while you are driving?  It looks like they are literally standing up to drive.  If you are less than 5’3”, you shouldn’t be allowed to drive an SUV.  I don’t care if you are using a phone book, a booster seat or stilts to reach the pedal.  And on the flip side, why are big people driving small cars?  I’m seeing too many big people in cars like a ford focus.  Wow, when you are shopping for cars and you have to either fold yourself or squeeze yourself into the car, you shouldn’t buy it.  If you keep honking the horn as you are either getting in or out of the car like Rasputia in the movie Norbit, you are too big for that car.  If you look like Officer Hightower from the Police Academy movies in a small car, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!!  If you don’t know what I’m talking about, watch the movies.  If you over a certain age, you shouldn’t be able to drive either.  I get nervous when I see a senior citizen going 40 miles per hour on the freeway in the fast lane.  Maybe they should have to take the driver’s test over to see if they can still drive.

All I’m saying is buy a vehicle that fits you.  Just because you think a ford expedition looks good doesn’t mean you look good in it.  Think before you act or you will run into people like me.  Follow me @wlhoward_psa.  Until the next time, stay cool 

Spandex

This is a RED ALERT blog to inform the people that spandex should be banned from anyone who doesn’t qualify.  Once again, I have nothing against a BBW or skinny woman but you are testing the waters in your choices in what you wear.  CARDINAL RULE: SPANDEX IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY!!!!  This is a major dress code violation and should be a YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT moment.   My only problem with some big and skinny woman is that they don’t dress properly in them.  If you can see what kind of nasty underwear you are wearing when you are wearing spandex, you should not be wearing spandex.  If you are wearing a shirt that comes above your waist to see what kind of nasty underwear you are wearing, you should not be wearing spandex.  If there is a hole in your spandex anywhere, take them off and throw them away.  If they are baggy and you need to keep pulling them up, you should be outlawed from wearing spandex because you didn’t get the right size.  There are too woman out there that don’t care how they look when they walk out of the house but are ready to fight someone because of what they are wearing.  Before you women get mad, please read the blog all the way through first.  If you don’t break any of those rules, you will be ok and I won’t talk about you.

Most of my blogs always come back to a few things.  First, do they have mirrors in their homes?  And two, who in there right mind, would let you walk out of the house like that?  If they really loved you, they would say something to you before you take one step outside.  Men can have some problems too, but not with spandex I hope.  Follow me @ wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool

Receding Hairlines and Comb Overs

First before I start, I am not talking about all men with receding hairlines because I understand it can be hereditary and it happens.  Also if you keep a low cut or bald knowing you have a receding hairline, that’s cool with me.  The men I’m talking about are the ones who still think they have long flowing hair down to their shoulders with not a strand of hair on top, the ones that keep a comb over in style and the ones who can’t accept that they are going bald and try to rock braids, dreadlocks or a pony tail on the sides since that’s all the hair they have left.  All I have to say on that is, IT’S TIME TO LET IT GO!!!!  How can they think that looks good when your comb over is blowing all over the place because it got caught by a gust of wind.  Now it’s sticking straight up in the air while you are waiting for the bus and you are wondering why people driving by are laughing and pointing.  And why would you keep letting your hair grow out knowing you are very bald on top?  You know I get it if you had a full head of hair to have braids, dreadlocks or a pony tail at one time, key word is had but now you look like you have a rat tail.  Your hair is gone and it is not coming back unless you try one of those hair restoration places and I’m still going to talk about you because I knew what your head looked like before.  There is nothing wrong with being bald unless you are that self conscience about your head.  And speaking of which, some of these men out here crack me up by still wearing toupees in 2011 and try to pass it as their real hair.  If you don’t take that dead squirrel of your head, IT IS 2011 NOT 1911!!!!

It’s time to keep it real.  Only real woman like who you are.  If you are bald, you are bald.  If you have receding hairline, woman don’t mind as long as your hair doesn’t look like George Jefferson or Hulk Hogan and even then they might let you slide.  Be yourself and don’t try to be someone else.  Follow me on Twitter @ wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool.

Foot Neglect

Summer will be over soon and it will be time for the ladies to put the sandals, flip flops or open toe heels away until next spring.  But before you do, I want to let you know that some of you ladies foot game was very messed up.  The reason I’m going after some the woman is because they try to buy the nicest pair of sandals or open toe heels not realizing their feet are jacked up.  How are you going to walk out of the house knowing your feet look like eagles claws and the nail polish is peeling off?  And maybe you might want to put some lotion or something on your feet too so they won’t look like you have been stomping out fires all day or breaking bricks with the back of your feet.  And to the ladies, who wear open toe heels knowing your toes look like a crowded elevator, toes fighting for position, get a bigger size.  There is a nail shop in pretty much every neighborhood, community or city where they can use a heavy duty sander and nail polish to get your feet right.  There is nothing worse than when you are cuddling with your lady and she is rubbing her feet all over you and you think your legs are wet from sweat but you are really bleeding because she has cut you up with her rough feet and razor sharp toe nails.  Now your bed looks like a murder scene for your legs bleeding all over the place.  Foot neglect can also happen by not wearing the right size shoes.  Now your toes look like cashew nuts because you have been wearing shoes two sizes too small.  Oh but don’t worry ladies, I haven’t forgotten about some of the men out there too who’s toes look like they could kick a tree down and feet that look like they have been walking over hot coals.  Men buy sandals knowing their feet are not looking right.  I have two words for that, NAIL CLIPPERS!!!! 

Remember, your feet are the first things that go in the bath tub.  Most people that complain that they have bad feet as they get older are probably the ones that neglected their feet.  Wear the right size shoe.  If you don’t get your feet done on a regular basis, all you need is some nail clippers & lotion.  Take care of your feet and you will be just fine.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool
