Nutritional Goals

Today I came thisclose to hitting all of my daily nutritional goals. I actually had lots of room to breathe with my calories and carbs. I hit the top end of my fat limit so I'll try to work on that a bit, but the biggest thing I'm having trouble with is getting enough protein! I'll have to find something to give me that little extra bit I need without putting me over the edge with everything else. Any suggestions??

Ink Master on Spike TV

~From Spike.com:

"Hosted by rock legend Dave Navarro and judged by icons of the tattoo world, Chris Nunez and Oliver Peck, 10 of the country's most creative and skilled tattoo artists descend on NYC to compete for a hundred thousand dollars and the title of INK MASTER.

The stakes couldn't be higher with 'Living Canvasses' donating their skin to be permanently marked in this adrenalized competition elimination."

Series premieres on Tuesday, January 17th, 2012.

Everyone's Mixtape

Once upon a time, crafting the perfect playlist was a labor of love — hours spent hunched over a boombox in pursuit of one perfectly proportioned cassette tape's worth of music.

Everyone’s Mixtape takes us back to those glory days. Virtual mixes are restricted to 60, 90, or 120 minutes (fantastically old school), though you can add any song from YouTube, SoundCloud and Vimeo with a simple drag and drop (VERY new school). Just be sure to create an account first so you can save all your mixes!

Add songs to a tape until the site tells you it's full, rearrange the play order for optimal impact and then share it with the world via Facebook and Twitter, or with a single person via email.

Sure, it's not as personal as handing it to them, but it's a heck of a lot more convenient.

Underwater bedroom?!

I want to stay at this resort!! The Conrad Hotel in the Maldives has the wickedest underwater bedroom I've ever seen!  Hell, I've NEVER seen anything like this!  Check out these pics!

Rachel's Cover Version of Bon Jovi's Bed of Roses

My friend Rachel is back on the mic and this time, she recorded a Bon Jovi
song for me! I hope you enjoy her cover of Bed of Roses as much as I do.
