For a while there were vitamin commercials on television. I’m not talking about women and the recommended prenatal vitamins, I’m talking about multi vitamins. I don’t see them anymore. Ironically, we’ll spend half a day looking for vitamin pills to make us live longer, then drive 90 miles an hour to make up for lost [...]

You see folks on a treadmill from time to time on television. A scene with a character exercising isn’t nearly as interesting or amusing as a chase scene. Have you ever noticed these things? • If the person you are chasing has just taken the elevator down from the 20th floor, you will be able [...]

Did you ever notice that on television that don’t really show characters trying to find a job? It’s true. They will mention characters being unemployed but they don’t usually get into the reality of job hunting and interviewing. They could make a reality show out of what not to do on interviews.

For a long time one of the biggest weight loss success stories out there was that of Jared and Subway. It had been said that Jared lost over 200 pounds just by eating Subway sandwiches for lunch and dinner. I don’t recall any mention of exercise or fitness equipment but would think he must have [...]

• During all police investigations it will be necessary to visit a strip club at least once. • The Chief of Police will always suspend his star detective – or give him 48 hours to finish the job. • A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty. • During [...]

I used to see commercials for acne products on television all of the time. I’m guessing that industry is changing, as are many others, because I don’t see many commercials for those types of products any more. Rather than commercials people are turning more and more to the internet. There are now websites devoted entirely [...]
