i sat and stared at the four liter bottle of pure spring water sitting on my kitchen counter for about 10 minutes. as i sat and stared at the simple container filled with the most basic human resource i thought about how i’d like to take that container, and a hundred others like it, fill it up and take it to uganda, to haiti, to kenya, and allow the people there the simple need that we...
This is one of those times
that I wish hot chocolate came in a can. Fact: being snowed in can be so awesome when you’re stuck with the right person(s). Right now, crashing on the couch at home and mentally sorting through some stuff involving a certain musical venture I’m working on with a guy some know as Verble.

More from LikeCool -

He finally landed a notable role in Funny People as Randy, an extremely energetic and incredibly vulgar stand-up comedian. just this past weekend, a stand-up special he recorded in 2009 premiered on Comedy Central.
Intimate Moments For A Sensual Evening is incredible. Aziz delivers the jokes so...

It’s so simple guys. All you have to do is send a text message, something almost every single one of you does every single day. If you’ve got the money to do so, donate to these people. Just think, that’s only the price you’d pay for two drinks at your local Starbucks. This is money you don’t have any problem spending any other time in the week, so why not spend it...
Invisible Children, Inc.
I first learned about Invisible Children a couple of years ago, but I researched them and got involved in 2009.
Here’s some info about them from their Who We Are page:
How It Started
In the spring of 2003, three young filmmakers traveled to Africa in search of a story. What started out as a filmmaking adventure transformed into much more when these boys from Southern California discovered...
So, this is my new blog.
I figured I’d set one up to link with my Facebook account so I can post about stuff on here and have it automatically be posted to my Wall. I’ll be posting everything: news, movie and music reviews, information about causes & events I feel people should know about, and other things that happen to spark my interest. Hopefully you’ll enjoy this as much as I do.
