A blog about beer and/or advertising.

Let's call it "beervertising" for short.

That's not really all that short, but it's better than beer and/or advertising.

First Post of the New Year

...is going to be a lame one. Because I have no idea what to write about. Which is why I haven't posted in a while. So, I suppose I'll just write some random things until I get bored or something strikes me as interesting.

There's a new documentary out now called "Lemonade," which profiles 16 (I think) people who were laid off from various advertising positions and went on to follow their true passions. One guy became a coffee roaster, another made the movie (after being laid of 3 times in 10 years), another guy became a woman. Part of me wants to buy this movie, partly to support my unemployed brethren, partly as a lesson in what I should be doing with my time, as my one-year jobless anniversary* is fast-approaching. The final part of me says not spend any money unnecessarily and to find a way to watch the movie without spending money because I don't have a full-time job.

From the same blog (makethelogobigger.blogspot.com) that I found that nifty youtube clip above comes this article. It basically states that German researchers have determined that men who stare at boobs live longer because the sexual excitement they feel while staring at boobs increases blood flow and heart rate, which they claim, if done enough, is equivalent to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise**. While I do believe this has the potential to be a crock of shit, I'm going to follow the advice of the German scientists and stare at boobs as often as I can. I feel that I owe it to myself and my loved ones who don't want to see me die to do everything I can to prolong my life. If that means I have to stare at boobs to do it, then so be it.

*I don't count my part-time work
**Not in the calorie-burning sense, just the intensity of blood flow

Just Doing My Part
