Why Professional After Dinner Speakers Don't Tell Jokes. by John Bell
Foolishly offered to give a speech?
Let me begin by saying this, if it is of any consolation, you are not the first and most certainly won't be the last to put your mouth into gear before engaging your brain. Many years back, flattered by friends who said I was a natural comedian, I did exactly the same and what follows are some of my best top tips to make the coming event a little less daunting, and hopefully help you by describing some of the basic mistakes I made in those early days whilst dying as an inexperienced, after dinner speaker.
By way of further reassurance - most audiences make allowances for a courageous amateur doing his or her best to entertain them. They often hold a 'better them than me' attitude.
A survey carried out in America showed that more people fear public speaking than death. Which, I guess means, that at a funeral, Americans would rather be the individual lying in the coffin than the poor soul providing the eulogy to the mourners!
Some, attempting to perform as an effective after dinner speaker, fail because they don't work hard enough at being funny. Being funny is seriously hard work and not that funny.
It was Gary Player who said, "The more I practise the luckier I get". This is as relevant to after dinner speaking as it is in golf. However the best, professional, after dinner speakers work on the principal that practise in itself is not sufficient, as many a frustrated, addicted golfer will also testify.
Preparation is an essential ingredient in successful, after dinner speaking. There is a saying - 'failing to prepare is preparing to fail'. Learn about your audience before you start, and never forget that preparation, before presenting, is paramount.
At the research stage, you will need to know exactly who makes up the audience. For example, if you are told the diners will be made up from members of a particular profession, ask the organiser where the audience stand in that organisation. Are they managers or machine operators? Such information will help you fine tune your after dinner speech and make it totally relevant to the audience's every day reality.
It is not sufficient to know that all of the audience have an interest in golf. You need to dig deeper. Are they all members of a particular club? Do they have a rival team whom you might poke fun at? Are there any 'characters' in the club who most members would recognise if an after dinner speaker were to describe and exaggerate their most noticeable characteristics?
This brings me to an important point in the art of successful after dinner speech giving.
Quality, after dinner speakers do not tell jokes. Quick-witted 'one-liners' are still in fashion on the after dinner speaker circuit, whereas jokes are not. The 'these three golfers were approaching the 18th hole' type stories will create a chorus of cringes, as many inexperienced after dinner speakers have found, unfortunately, too late to save their delicate feelings.
If an audience of diners have a strong interest in a particular subject the chances are they will have heard each and every joke you have placed in your repertoire a dozen times before. Hopeful you now better understand why I say being a successful after dinner speaker is such hard work. It is not a case of putting an act together and then repeating the speech night after night to different audiences.
For a professional after dinner speaker, what a particular audience of diners consider funny, fluctuates with the years, and is generally accepted as being a subjective and fashionable test. By better understanding who your audience are, as opposed to what they have in common, means you are much more likely to provide an entertaining after dinner speech that will be remembered with affection by the diners, and event organisers for years to come.
The fact that an audience of diners have a common interest in golf will, for a professional after dinner speaker, only act as a theme that weaves its way through their after dinner speech.
Basing your whole after dinner speech on golf jokes is preparing to fail. A quality after dinner speech is a subtle observation of the real life of the audience of diners, delivered humorously by the after dinner speaker.
Superior after dinner speech humour is so much subtler than simply reciting one joke after another. If you happen to be an after dinner speaker who tells joke after boring joke during your speeches, I make no apology if I have offended you by writing so. I never apologise. Sorry, that's just the way I am.
And, if having read the last few sentences, you are still have a problem understanding what it is I am saying, it may be you are without all hope.
Quality after dinner speaking has much to do with a skilful observation of real life. The words used to describe a situation require vocal expression, comic timing, character exaggeration, and carefully placed pauses that are so full of meaning. Frank Carson's catch phrase "It's the way I tell 'em" is the essence of what makes good, after dinner speaking.
For the diners doing the laughing, and for that matter the after dinner speaker too, humour is an escape from their everyday reality. Top after dinner speakers befriend an audience and quickly build a rapport with the diners. As the average after dinner speech provided by a professional after dinner speaker lasts between 20 to 30 minutes, speed in building rapport is an essential requirement in successful after dinner speaking.
To help build rapport, an after dinner speaker will often playfully laugh at themselves. To do so, the after dinner speaker needs to become a philosophical spectator of his or her own life in relation to those they have around them. Effective after dinner speaking is about showing an understanding of what makes people tick and then making witty observations to entertain and amuse the diners.
When next listening to a proficient after dinner speaker notice that many of the topics included in the after dinner speech revolve around problems the after dinner speaker encounters in his or her day-to-day reality.
Top after dinner speakers know there is little difference in people. By making fun of their own problems the after dinner speaker develops an empathy with the diners mainly because the diners have very similar problems to that of the after dinner speaker.
The best after dinner speakers are striving to be ever funnier. For them, providing the best ever after dinner speech, is a lifelong apprenticeship that few have the resolve to complete. If you are giving your first ever after dinner speech, rehearse, rehearse, and rehearse. If possible, try your material out with friends or relatives whom you trust will provide honest, constructive feedback. And if they say you need more jokes in your speech, don't listen to them!
When an after dinner speaker is working on improving his or her after dinner speech material, they will often work on a simplistic definition of the psychology of humour. Mine is - the study of wit in relation to the workings of the human mind and prediction of people behaviour.
To make an after dinner speech humorous, the diners must first predict some outcome, and then be humoured with a punch line that nudges them off their expected route.
To do this, an after dinner speaker must be a great story teller and be aware that in telling the story the majority of diners listening to the talk will be travelling down a particular path, guided by the speaker, only to be nudged from the predicated route. It is this 'nudge' that makes the story humorous. An unexpected outcome can turn a tedious tale into a funny story.
By way of example, I consider Woody Allen to be one of the best, humorous storytellers around. Here is a short extract from one of his routines and I would like you to take a few minutes out to analyse. Look particularly at the construction of the story taking into consideration the likes of rapport building, etc, I described earlier:
"When I was little boy, I wanted a dog desperately, and we had no money. I was a tiny kid, and my parents couldn't get me a dog, 'cause we just didn't have the money, so they got me, instead of a dog - they told me it was a dog - they got me an ant. And I didn't know any better, y'know, I thought it was a dog, I was a dumb kid. Called it 'Spot'. I trained it, y'know. Coming home late one night, Sheldon Finklestein tried to bully me. Spot was with me. And I said "Kill!", and Sheldon stepped on my dog."
Now analyse the construction of this short story. Take into account the skilful observation of life Woody Allen uses. Do you believe it possible that maybe he was bullied at school and, at some low point in his childhood, discovered humour made his life a little more bearable by effectively dealing with such obnoxious, bullying characters?
To best understand the quality of Woody Allen as a storyteller you need to appreciate his masterful style of delivery. Otherwise the quote from Woody I have provided above is merely a skeleton that lacks life and flesh.
Woody Allen's genius as a humorous speaker comes from his vocal expression and it is that which puts flesh onto the skeleton of a story. It is his superb comic timing, character exaggeration, and carefully placed pauses that then breathe life into his amusing tale.
If you need to better understand the importance of the ingredients I have described in giving a polished after dinner speech, seek out video clips of Woody Allen and, or a top, professional, after dinner speaker and you should appreciate why I have included them.
For now, take the full stops is Woody's story as being the pauses I described earlier. Does he build empathy by describing a situation that was similar to a problem you may once have had? It is my belief that most people have been bullied at sometime in their life. The fact that the memory of such can still cause pain may be one of the main reasons people would prefer not to speak of such events to others. It is their secret a skilled after dinner speaker has somehow touched upon. The diner can empathise with the speaker and rapport is established.
Ask yourself this:
Was money 'tight' when you were a child? (Rapport)
Is Woody Allen a philosophical spectator of his own life in relation to those around him? (Rapport)
What relationship does Woody with the other characters in the story?
Read through the story again and then consider - does Woody appear to be laughing at himself?
Is Woody appearing to make fun of his own problems encountered whilst child?
As with Woody Allen, during an after dinner speech the speaker becomes a story teller describing the practically enacted theory of the absurdities so often found in human relationships and this is usually related to a 'twist' in the story that makes the tale humorous for the diners.
The 'twist' takes the story away from the norm (the predicted path), and makes it funny. Woody's dog becomes an ant. As the story unfolds Woody creates a movie in your mind. He becomes a storyteller. You are there with him as Finklestein (did you picture Frankenstein) tries to bully him and Spot (his pet ant) is instructed to Kill!
Entertaining, after dinner speakers have the ability to have fun with literal meanings. It is said they can see the funny side of most things. They can, but only when they set the mind to the task. After dinner speakers are performers, providing humorous twists. And, at the end of the day -
(pause) it's midnight. (the twist)
If you wish to make an impact as an after dinner speaker take a topic that has a literal meaning somehow connected to the diners and think of alternative meanings to make it humorous.
By way of example - at an after dinner event where the diners are made up of people connected to the retail industry and, having probed deeper with the event organiser, you may have established that a large part of the audience will be shop owners, you therefore might include:
"I said to the guy next door - I was on my way to the shops and your dog went for me!"
Now think of alternate meaning to 'your dog went for me' i.e. the dog attempted to bite him:
"and he replied - that's impressive; it never went to the shops for me before!"
The listener is nudged from the predicted path making the story humorous and, indirectly relevant to those in the audience who are the shop owners.
I would now like to offer you important advice on the type of material you should not use whilst giving an after dinner speech.
Be extremely careful about using any material that could cause offence to any of the diners. Experienced, successful, professional after dinner speakers are usually very skilled at judging how controversial they can be on topics such as sex, politics, race or religion. If you are new to after dinner speaking, take my advice and avoid all four topics during your speech.
I mentioned earlier that an average after dinner speech, delivered by a professional after dinner speaker, lasts around 20 to 30 minutes. 10 to 15 minutes is sufficient if you are inexperienced at public speaking. Don't mistake smiles or polite laughter as in invitation to go on and on and on and on. Your aim should be to leave the diners wanting more, yet appreciative of the entertainment you have already skilfully provided.
One of the biggest mistakes made by inexperienced, after dinner speakers is their perceived need to read verbatim from copious quantities of notes scribbled on A4 sheets of paper that become totally illegible in the candle light available during your speech.
If you feel it is absolutely necessary to have an aid to memory, acquire something as small as an index card and use the odd word or two, printed in large letters, to jog your memory. Do not read verbatim. Here's why:
And so to my final tip, purposefully left until last because I consider it to be the most important. It is this - when giving a successful after dinner speech- Stop Trying Too Hard!
I understand this initially seem to contradict all I have written about after dinner speaking and the giving of a great speech, but please hear me out.
You have completed the required research, you have prepared and practised your piece and now, as you deliver your masterpiece to an appreciated audience of after dinner diners, I want you to imagine yourself speaking informally, to a small group of close friends and family. People with whom you normally feel totally comfortable and at ease.
You have my word that if on the day, you stop trying too hard, your confidence will grow, you will appear much more relaxed, and, it turn, the diners will be much more at ease and in better positioned to enjoy and appreciate your short masterpiece - the after dinner speech.
Have a great evening.

Yo Mama Jokes Origin
Yo Mama Jokes Origin by Naomi West
There are hundreds of jokes that we all quote and use in order to put a smile on other people's face, make others laugh, or just to insult them! The latter is more often the case and trust me there are plenty of jokes to choose from when you are trying to make of others. You can use the ever popular blonde jokes, then there are the lawyer jokes (but only if you know someone who is a lawyer), or you can battle it out with yo mama jokes.
Not many categories of jokes have a history or background. We don't know who started them or why they were started. Or we do - but they are very basic. For example we have blonde jokes to make fun of women with blonde hair because we feel that many of them are or act like they don't know anything. We make fun of lawyers because well…that's a story we won't get into right now.
Surprisingly enough when it comes to yo mama jokes they come with a very interesting background. Yo mama jokes are also referred to as 'the dozens' and is an tradition among African Americans in which two people (that are usually guys) will compete against each other in trash talking. This trash talking is all in good fun and in the middle of it are their mothers.
The two competitors will go back and forth and try to come up with the best comeback jokes against the other person's mother until someone gives up in defeat. Playing the dozens using yo mama jokes is played to see who is has the better mental toughness and mental agility. Each joke that is used makes it that much more difficult for the other to respond with a comeback.
If you listen closely to these jokes and when two are competing against each other you will notice a hint of elements that are often used to create many hip hop songs called 'battling'.
Usually yo mama jokes are used to poke fun at others and no one takes it personal. However, there are times when people do it to be personal. When this happens people start to become very angry and in most cases it will end with some type of violent act. But in its best form the dozens is just purely verbal sparring.
Yo mama jokes are just one example of the dozens game. They are very cryptic, short, and in most cases downright hilarious. Other times the fathers, sisters, brothers, or even wives will be the object of attention.

Setting Goals & Making Change in your Life
Setting Goals & Making Change in your Life by Leah
This article takes you through personal steps in making changes in your life. The steps follow through a quest for financial freedom of creating wealth. The steps can also be applied to a variety of different changes like losing weight or changing bad habits. First of all you must walk into you goals just like you are learning math, a foreign language, or a sport. Practice, practice, practice! Well you might be asking, "How can you practice at being wealthy?" We all were brought up knowing and practicing one way of managing money. The knowledge I had regarding money wasn't working for me so I had to learn a whole new world of ideas to change my behavior. I dove in head first to money management involving words, terms, and ideas that I have never grasped before. My world was different from the millionaires I read about. So I needed to know what they knew that I didn't. I am going to tell you the steps I took to climb my stair way or mountainous goal of changing my wealth because, thus far, it has changed my life. This change was only possible because I challenged my world or comfort and forced change in my life. Here are six steps I took in my journey to make that change happen:
1. Immerse yourself in the subject. I Read so many books on the subject with many different view points. One of the first books I read regarding money stated that most people we associate with make pretty much the same amount of money we do. Sure enough, with little exception, most of my personal acquaintances were just like me. Don't get me wrong I am a professional and make a descent amount of money to buy most anything I desire but being in the contest of, who owns the most toys comes along with owning the most debt. So as I meander across the waves in the 30 foot Baja or travel with my 40 foot trailer I pondered my meaning of leisure time. Do I own my toys or do they own me. Getting to the point, I wanted different results then I have ever had before so therefore I needed different sources. I turned to books and tapes on getting rich… even choosing authors that I didn't necessary like to provoke change. My experience thus far had created the habits and financial knowledge I had gained to that point in my life and I needed this new information to create change. Through this venture I felt a bit overloaded at times but consistency with the subject and a variety of different facts and opinions on the subject started to provoke change.
2. Write down clear and concise goals. I did this initially by stating my goals vaguely. As time went on I learned more about the subject and I was able to define my goals a bit clearer. This step took me a while but it was so important. It sounds so easy, 'write down your goals,' but it wasn't easy for me. I had a small fear that I might fail or actually have to work at something. I started slow with this goal. I finally decided, even though I didn't have a clear goal (at that time) I was going to write anything relating to my desired financial freedom. When I actually put the pen to the paper I didn't create a master piece I wrote a few sentences. As my journey went on I changed my goals as my vision became clearer. I also realized the importance of returning to my written goals, if not to change them, to be revitalized and refocused.
3. Share your goals. This one hurt me! I really contemplated the purpose. I felt that those around me may belittle me for my goal. I feared (once again that word 'fear') that individuals would put me down for the fact that I wasn't grateful for what I had. Then I examined my confidence. I knew I had what it takes to do anything. I have succeeded before but more often on the quite side! Knowing that my quiet confidence gets me through I decided to choose this route. No, I didn't stand on a rock and declare to the world that I wanted to be rich. I let it out a bit at a time. As I told a few individuals I realized even if they don't agree with me I didn't take it personally. After a few mentions I had people asking me to tell my story. One brave day I stated my goal in front of a crowd of intelligent people just because that's what the books said to do. I felt I was really off topic, I was absorbed in fear, and the whole speech turned out a bit corny, in my opinion, but I was so excited that I actually did it. After that class I had many people approach me for some type of financial opportunity and actually felt a little overwhelmed by the attention. I honestly do have a positive affect on people but didn't know why so much for that particular class. I stated to an instructor of the class that it was going to be hard to choose these individuals and questioned why people were requesting my approval. She said, "Well it was the speech that you gave on the first day of class... it was awesome and inspiring to everyone including me." That speech wasn't prepared, it wasn't practiced but it was what I felt in my heart. I was going too seceded! I am sure many in class looked at me as a joke but I definitely attracted those individuals who were interested in my vision and goal. 4. Ignore the negativity! The people in our worlds do not want to hear how we want to change. If you change your world, you inevitably change something in their world! It could be jealousy, fear, or just the plain old fact that it is human nature to resist change even if it is possibly for the better. So try to branch out and attract those who are interested in your goal. If, in turn, you attract those who are extremely opposed who cares… maybe you'll learn from them… maybe you will change their focus… Does it really matter? What matters is what you want to achieve! 5. Sales?! I saw the word, 'sales' and shut down. I learned that everyone has to be good in sales. Let me state, I am good in sales and have succeeded in past sales jobs as a stepping stone. Then I ran like crazy at the first opportunity to GET AWAY from sales. Now I learn sales is standing in the way of my goals. I wasn't happy but with all of my new knowledge I was learning to accept new information and ideas. As I studied more I realized the experts were referring to sales a bit different. I didn't need the competitive sales but only to sell this idea to myself. After I was sold and believed in myself people will begin to follow. When I was certain where I was going I would find other leaders like myself. All of the sources stated Network Marking ventures were the ideal way to go because of the free training in sales. So I researched to find the best opportunities out there and dove in head first to a couple different ventures. I chose health related opportunities because that was another big interest of mine. I absorbed as much training as possible and found other benefits I could never have imagined. 6. Never Quit. This single step is so important! No matter if you lose site of every other step in the process you have to keep going until you get it right or achieve your goal! At times I forgot about the excitement of my goal, changed my opinion, and got too busy to worry about change. There are so many things to keep you busy in your current life to distract you! But if you want change to happen you have to make it happen. Keep refereeing back to your written goals and do what ever it takes to keep your goal at the forefront. You will get discouraged. You will get distracted. You will want to give up because change is difficult. But make your decision now and every day from here on out. Your ideas of today ultimately put you where you are in life today. If you want a different outcome in your life regarding financial, health, weight, etc… you have to change your current actions and you can not quit! As for me I would always recall the reasons that I wanted and needed this change… my family. Once I felt like giving up I looked at them for motivation. I didn't think, 'I need this to happen'... I didn't hope for the change to happen… I knew it would happen until it actually did!

As for me I would always recall the reasons that I wanted and needed this change… my family. Once I felt like giving up I looked at them for motivation. I didn't think, 'I need this to happen'... I didn't hope for the change to happen… I knew it would happen until it actually did!

Christmas Games - Are you worried that Christmas day is not going to be as "special" as you would like it to be. Is it the Christmas dinner you are worrying over, if so, stop there. There is no difference between cooking Christmas dinner than that of cooking a meal on any other day of the week. "Special is about making changes." Okay so you have to cook an extra vegetable and ornate the table, so what`s the big deal.

Pressure comes from worry of which most of us do unnecessarily, but don`t know we are doing it. What you need to do is sit back relax and think of the simple options' that can make Christmas day preparations easy
If it is not dinner that concerns you, but that of how to entertain your guests, then once again why is this also seen as a problem. Do your friends and family like to laugh? If not they are just some of the min-ute few that could have done without your invite? Nevertheless we have more jolly folk than not, so let those who purposely dwell on misery, dwell.
If you have a miserable person in your presence and their reason for this mood not be from losing a loved one but because they didn`t like the pudding, then you must not drain your energy trying to please.

The Partner Game: You will need sheets of blue and pink paper cut into ziz-zag halves. Hand each man a half sheet of blue paper and every woman a half sheet of pink paper. During the party, each person will go off to find the other matching half of paper.

Best dressed Santa wins.
Santa Scramble: Your guests need to team up into two equal teams. Create two starting lines with masking tape, and place two wrapped packages about 15 yards away if space permitting.. Line the teams up with the Santa Clause Suit at the starting line. To start, the first player on each team quickly dresses up, runs the course, and then returns the wardrobe to the next player and so on. The first team to complete the course wins. Props needed for play. Santa hat, oversized T-shirt, padding for the belly, boots, and a sack full of small gift favors which can be given to all players at the end for joining in the fun.
Christmas Charades: Include a Christmas theme to play; however you can use another if you feel ideal to get laughs. In this game, a player attempts to act out a word while others keep guessing the meaning of the word. The person who guesses the correct answer is the winner. Several rounds are played to increase the game play. Words such as Santa Claus, reindeer, snowman are most appropriate but nevertheless easy to guess.

How to Keep Your Child Safe from Sexual Abuse
How to Keep Your Child Safe from Sexual Abuse by Phil Smith
A review of studies from 21 countries suggested that in some places as many as 36 percent of women and 29 percent of men had been subjected to some form of sexual abuse during childhood. The majority of these perpetrators were relatives. This report show how pervasive is sexual abuse of children and how it can be very difficult to deal with. This should engender a need for wanting to protect your child? How can you succeed?
Learn how abusers operates
They try to win your trust and that of your child by pretending as if they are truly interested in your family. In time he may try grooming your child for abuse by separating him from friends and siblings. He goes further by telling your child to keep some minor secrets from you; such as a gift or future excursion plan.
If he succeeds in winning the needed trust, then he is ready to make his move. He tries to seduce the child by exploiting his natural curiosity about sex. He starts exposing him to pornography. He could tell him that they need to play a special game together. If he succeeds in abusing the child, he is now eager to make sure the child tell no one. He may use a variety of tricks including threats, blackmail, and blame or perhaps a combination of these. He may use expressions like; it is our secrets; if you tell your parents they will call the police and send me to jail forever; it is your fault; you didn't tell me to stop; if you tell, no one will believe you, he could use a host of other tricks.
How to protect your child
Protect your child against sexual abuse by giving him simple action to take if someone tries to take advantage of him. Act out simple scenarios: Imagine this. What would be safest response if someone tries to touch him in the wrong way? If your child is easily alarm by such question, you might tries telling a story about another child for instance a girl is with a relative she likes, but then he tries to touch her where he should not. What do you think she should do to stay saved?
An expert recommends: 'a firm no!' or 'don't do that!' or 'leave me alone' statement like these scare seducers. The entire child's direct caregivers, whether father; stepfather; or other relatives should be part of these discussions. The reason? All involved in such teaching are in effect promising the child that they will never commit such an abuse.
However, there are situation that call for more urgent or direct approach. Such as, how to identify predators in your neighborhood. How to get instant notification each time a predator move to your area. These and much more are what you will have instant access to in an amazing software.
Your report will include: High-resolution, customizable maps centered on the street address you input. The offenders' home addresses indicated on the map. Full Names, Aliases, and Addresses of the offenders. Color Photos of the offenders (in most states). A description of the crime committed by each offender. The ability to check any address including schools, day care centers, and homes of relatives and friends. With this software you and your family are always 'in the know'. When you identify an enemy, avoiding him become easier. More than that, this software equips you with more specific information on each situation that may arise. Your children are your future you cannot afford to joke with it

The Sex drive
The Sex drive by Emmanuel Timothy M.
Your sex drive is killing your sex life.
The amazing gift - of a sex drive - that you were born with, has become your worst enemy.
Let me ask you something…
Have you ever seen an innocent child chasing after a butterfly?
Just as the child gets closer to the butterfly, and begins smiling because he's about to catch it… he gets too excited, and moves too fast… and scares his prize away.
And this is exactly what you're probably doing with women right now.
Innocently… and ignorantly… you're pushing away the women you're most attracted to… and, in the process, you're pushing away your chances of having sexually fulfilling relationships with those women.
How am I so sure about this?
Because I did this exact same thing ALL MY LIFE.
And it's only now, after years of "self development" and learning that I'm able to see my past thinking and behavior for EXACTLY what it was… DESTRUCTIVE. Some Of The Many Mistakes I Made…
You may have heard me mention this before, but I didn't have my first girlfriend until I was 18 years old. Up until that point, I had gotten used to women not paying attention to me, and I just assumed that I wasn't the type of guy that women were "interested in".
I would hear stories about the other guys in my high school "hooking up" with the attractive girls… and, over time, I just got the point where I accepted the idea that those guys must have something "special" about them… that attracted women in a sexual way.
The more these other guys "scored", and the more I didn't score, the more I affirmed that belief in my mind…
But here's the kicker: Just because women weren't interested in ME in a sexual way… didn't mean that I wasn't interested in THEM in a sexual way. My desire was always there… hoping… waiting… praying for a chance opportunity to be with one of these seemingly out-of-reach beauties I saw all around me.
Now that I look back on it, I realize that the frustration that came from believing that I would never be successful with women… combined with my growing desire to BE with one of these women… ruled my "mental world".
I had no idea that I had the word "DESPERATE" written in big bold letters on my forehead. Women could see it… but I had no idea it was even there.
This "foundation" (if you could call it that), led to another set of problems as I got older…
Because I secretly believed that women weren't interested in me "in that way", I always felt embarrassed, ashamed, and guilty about my desires to be with them…
I could be talking to an attractive woman, and as soon as I started to think "Hey, this woman is hot…" I would become INCREDIBLY self-conscious.
All of a sudden, I felt like my thoughts and intentions were being projected on a giant movie screen right in front of the girl I was talking to. I felt like she could READ MY MIND.
Worse, I felt like she not only knew what I was thinking, but she was probably DISGUSTED by it… and wanted to get away from me.
I mean, if you were an attractive woman, and a guy that wasn't attractive in any way was talking to you… and thinking sexual thoughts about you… wouldn't YOU want to get away as fast as possible?
I thought so. And, more importantly, I thought that SHE thought so.
And again… now that I'm older, and can look back on this with experience… I can see that I was literally sabotaging my chances of success with these women. What Was Wrong? Why Couldn't I See It?
At that time in my life, I had NO WAY of knowing what the problem was.
I had no way of knowing that the women I was so attracted to could see RIGHT THROUGH ME.
I had no way of knowing that it was OBVIOUS to them that I wanted them… and that I didn't know how to GET them…
The problem was actually three problems:
1) had NO Sexual Confidence.
2) I had NO Sexual Experience.
3) I had NO clue.
Not only did I lack confidence and experience, I didn't even have anyone to slap me upside the head and say "Hey dumbass! Go get some Sexual Confidence… and read a few books about sex already!"
In fact, sometimes I mentally go back and bitch-slap my inner child and say those exact words! Just don't mention that to any therapists… they might not agree with my self-motivation techniques…
In total, I spent around ten YEARS of my adult life in this "rat maze", trying to find the secret door… and only running into one frustrating situation after another.
I'd get lucky, and start a casual conversation with a woman that I found attractive… and screw it up because I was so insecure about my sexuality… and because I thought she could NEVER find me attractive… so I wouldn't even TRY.
I'd get lucky again, and wind up dating a woman that I really liked… and because I had no Sexual Confidence, I'd turn into "Super Wussy Boy" and she'd get bored of me… and we'd break up.
I'd get VERY lucky… and find myself in a situation where an attractive woman was in bed with me… but I'd get nervous and self-conscious… and not be able to even get sexually excited (by the way, this one is the hardest to even admit… and I can't believe I'm typing these words right now).
These are just a few of the COUNTLESS situations that I screwed up over those ten or so years of my life…
If you've been reading this, and you can identify with what I'm talking about, then what I'm about to say will probably change your life FOREVER. I'm not kidding… The Root Of The Problem…
The sad (but true) fact is that I had NO IDEA that my problems were coming from my MIND.
It wasn't that women weren't interested in me… and it wasn't that they were disgusted by my desire for them…
The reality was that I didn't know how to MAKE them interested… and I didn't know that if they were interested, that they would LIKE the fact that I wanted them sexually.
In short, I had no SEXUAL CONFIDENCE.
Those two words are interesting together, aren't they?
Somehow, even though you've probably never seen them used together… you probably know EXACTLY what they mean when used in this way… right?
Let's put it another way.
I'll bet you've "thought through" the idea that sex is "natural"… right?
You've gone over it in your mind over and over… and you've convinced yourself logically that there's "nothing wrong with sex"… and that if you are interested in a woman sexually, that it's totally healthy and acceptable.
But then there's REALITY…
When you find yourself in the SITUATION with a woman… and you suspect that she might be "reading your mind", you become self-conscious and ashamed again… even though you "know" there's nothing to be self-conscious and ashamed about…
This, my friend, is a lack of Sexual Confidence.
But there's more…
I also mentioned earlier the factor called "sexual experience".
Here I'm talking specifically about knowing exactly how to please a woman in the bedroom. I'm talking about having the goods. I'm talking about being able to look at a woman and say to yourself "if that woman is lucky enough to experience some time with me on an intimate level, she is going to remember it for the rest of her life".
THAT is what I'm talking about.
And when you COMBINE these two factors, and you develop them consciously… you will become a man that has UNLIMITED options with women. A "Dirty Secret" That Most Women Will Never Admit…
One of the most INTERESTING things I learned while I was teaching myself about Sexual Confidence was this:
Many (or maybe even most) attractive women have gone through… or are going through… a time in their lives where they have become what I call "sexually dormant".
What I'm talking about here is very private, and very personal to most women…
A woman who is going through this experience has found herself in a place where she has FORGOTTEN what it feels like to be SEXUALLY ALIVE.
See, for most women, they rarely (or NEVER) meet a man who has that amazing combination of "Sexual Confidence" PLUS the ability to really "please" her in the bedroom.
And, just like I programmed myself that there was something "unattractive" about me… and I'd probably never succeed sexually with women… a woman who is sexually dormant has come to believe that this is just the way it is.
She has literally LOST HOPE.
Whoah, heavy man.
But there's good news. And it's VERY good news…
If you work on yourself, and develop your natural Sexual Confidence… then learn a few things about how to please women… you can awaken a woman's sexual side. And then… WATCH OUT.
Even though this sounds like some kind of romance novel sex fantasy, it's 100% true. Every word of it. And I'm going to prove it to you… One Technique That Will Literally Transform Your "Sexual Success" With Women Instantly…
Before I go on, I'd like to share a technique that you can use to dramatically increase your success with women on a sexual level. If you pay attention and USE what I'm about to share, you will see VERY powerful results. Why am I going to share this technique with you? Because I want you to see for yourself just how much difference a small change can make. And I want to you to see for yourself that you can LEARN how to improve your sexual success with women (I also want you to invest in my home-study program as well, but that's another story…). Have you ever heard me tell the story of "Old Bull and Young Bull"? Maybe you've heard the joke…
Old Bull and Young Bull are standing on a hill. Young Bull says to Old Bull, "Hey, let's run down there and have sex with one of them cows". Old Bull slowly turns to Young Bull and says, "Let's WALK down there, and have sex with ALL of them". The moral of the story is that Old Bull has learned that being in too much of a hurry limits your sexual success. Being in too much of a hurry scares women away. Being in too much of a hurry makes women RESIST… it weirds them out. If being in too much of a hurry hurts you, then what's the obvious solution?
SLOW DOWN. This is a good start, by the way. And I recommend it. Lean back. Don't move too fast. Don't communicate that you're needy. Don't get overly excited if she gives you a "positive signal". In short, CHILL OUT. But this isn't the ULTIMATE answer.
This isn't the answer that brings you the EXPONENTIAL increase in success.
This isn't the answer that literally gets women AROUSED… and turns them on.
For that, you must do something that's both SIMPLE… and "counter-intuitive".
By counter-intuitive, I mean that you must do something that you'd probably never think of… and you'd never stumble on by accident… because it almost doesn't make sense.
And that's the BEAUTY of it.
Because it's not something that most men think of (or do accidentally), it is INCREDIBLY powerful to do with women… because they never EXPERIENCE it. The "Magic Key" To A Woman's Arousal… Anticipation
The way to take this idea of "slowing down", and multiply its effectiveness… is to add a simple twist to it.
This twist is to actually STOP once in awhile… and GO BACKWARDS a step.
In fact, I call this technique "Two Steps Forward, One Step Back".
And here's why it works:
For a woman, arousal (or being "turned on") is all about ANTICIPATION.
Men get turned on instantly… but women usually take longer. And they ENJOY the process of getting turned on more and more over time.
If you know this simple fact… and you know how to create MENTAL ANTICIPATION… you will know the secret of getting any woman aroused sexually.
Here's how to do it…
Next time you're with a woman, tell yourself that you're going to STOP at every "base", and take a step BACK.
Let's say you've kissed her for the first time.
STOP.
Lean back.
Smile at her.
Start talking again.
And don't touch her

I mean, if you were an attractive woman, and a guy that wasn't attractive in any way was talking to you… and thinking sexual thoughts about you… wouldn't YOU want to get away as fast as possible?
I thought so. And, more importantly, I thought that SHE thought so.
And again… now that I'm older, and can look back on this with experience… I can see that I was literally sabotaging my chances of success with these women. What Was Wrong? Why Couldn't I See It?
At that time in my life, I had NO WAY of knowing what the problem was.
I had no way of knowing that the women I was so attracted to could see RIGHT THROUGH ME.
I had no way of knowing that it was OBVIOUS to them that I wanted them… and that I didn't know how to GET them…
The problem was actually three problems:
1) had NO Sexual Confidence.
2) I had NO Sexual Experience.
3) I had NO clue.
Not only did I lack confidence and experience, I didn't even have anyone to slap me upside the head and say "Hey dumbass! Go get some Sexual Confidence… and read a few books about sex already!"
In fact, sometimes I mentally go back and bitch-slap my inner child and say those exact words! Just don't mention that to any therapists… they might not agree with my self-motivation techniques…
In total, I spent around ten YEARS of my adult life in this "rat maze", trying to find the secret door… and only running into one frustrating situation after another.
I'd get lucky, and start a casual conversation with a woman that I found attractive… and screw it up because I was so insecure about my sexuality… and because I thought she could NEVER find me attractive… so I wouldn't even TRY.
I'd get lucky again, and wind up dating a woman that I really liked… and because I had no Sexual Confidence, I'd turn into "Super Wussy Boy" and she'd get bored of me… and we'd break up.
I'd get VERY lucky… and find myself in a situation where an attractive woman was in bed with me… but I'd get nervous and self-conscious… and not be able to even get sexually excited (by the way, this one is the hardest to even admit… and I can't believe I'm typing these words right now).
These are just a few of the COUNTLESS situations that I screwed up over those ten or so years of my life…
If you've been reading this, and you can identify with what I'm talking about, then what I'm about to say will probably change your life FOREVER. I'm not kidding… The Root Of The Problem…
The sad (but true) fact is that I had NO IDEA that my problems were coming from my MIND.
It wasn't that women weren't interested in me… and it wasn't that they were disgusted by my desire for them…
The reality was that I didn't know how to MAKE them interested… and I didn't know that if they were interested, that they would LIKE the fact that I wanted them sexually.
In short, I had no SEXUAL CONFIDENCE.
Those two words are interesting together, aren't they?
Somehow, even though you've probably never seen them used together… you probably know EXACTLY what they mean when used in this way… right?
Let's put it another way.
I'll bet you've "thought through" the idea that sex is "natural"… right?
You've gone over it in your mind over and over… and you've convinced yourself logically that there's "nothing wrong with sex"… and that if you are interested in a woman sexually, that it's totally healthy and acceptable.
But then there's REALITY…
When you find yourself in the SITUATION with a woman… and you suspect that she might be "reading your mind", you become self-conscious and ashamed again… even though you "know" there's nothing to be self-conscious and ashamed about…
This, my friend, is a lack of Sexual Confidence.
But there's more…
I also mentioned earlier the factor called "sexual experience".
Here I'm talking specifically about knowing exactly how to please a woman in the bedroom. I'm talking about having the goods. I'm talking about being able to look at a woman and say to yourself "if that woman is lucky enough to experience some time with me on an intimate level, she is going to remember it for the rest of her life".
THAT is what I'm talking about.
And when you COMBINE these two factors, and you develop them consciously… you will become a man that has UNLIMITED options with women. A "Dirty Secret" That Most Women Will Never Admit…
One of the most INTERESTING things I learned while I was teaching myself about Sexual Confidence was this:
Many (or maybe even most) attractive women have gone through… or are going through… a time in their lives where they have become what I call "sexually dormant".
What I'm talking about here is very private, and very personal to most women…
A woman who is going through this experience has found herself in a place where she has FORGOTTEN what it feels like to be SEXUALLY ALIVE.
See, for most women, they rarely (or NEVER) meet a man who has that amazing combination of "Sexual Confidence" PLUS the ability to really "please" her in the bedroom.
And, just like I programmed myself that there was something "unattractive" about me… and I'd probably never succeed sexually with women… a woman who is sexually dormant has come to believe that this is just the way it is.
She has literally LOST HOPE.
Whoah, heavy man.
But there's good news. And it's VERY good news…
If you work on yourself, and develop your natural Sexual Confidence… then learn a few things about how to please women… you can awaken a woman's sexual side. And then… WATCH OUT.
Even though this sounds like some kind of romance novel sex fantasy, it's 100% true. Every word of it. And I'm going to prove it to you… One Technique That Will Literally Transform Your "Sexual Success" With Women Instantly…
Before I go on, I'd like to share a technique that you can use to dramatically increase your success with women on a sexual level. If you pay attention and USE what I'm about to share, you will see VERY powerful results. Why am I going to share this technique with you? Because I want you to see for yourself just how much difference a small change can make. And I want to you to see for yourself that you can LEARN how to improve your sexual success with women (I also want you to invest in my home-study program as well, but that's another story…). Have you ever heard me tell the story of "Old Bull and Young Bull"? Maybe you've heard the joke…
Old Bull and Young Bull are standing on a hill. Young Bull says to Old Bull, "Hey, let's run down there and have sex with one of them cows". Old Bull slowly turns to Young Bull and says, "Let's WALK down there, and have sex with ALL of them". The moral of the story is that Old Bull has learned that being in too much of a hurry limits your sexual success. Being in too much of a hurry scares women away. Being in too much of a hurry makes women RESIST… it weirds them out. If being in too much of a hurry hurts you, then what's the obvious solution?
SLOW DOWN. This is a good start, by the way. And I recommend it. Lean back. Don't move too fast. Don't communicate that you're needy. Don't get overly excited if she gives you a "positive signal". In short, CHILL OUT. But this isn't the ULTIMATE answer.
This isn't the answer that brings you the EXPONENTIAL increase in success.
This isn't the answer that literally gets women AROUSED… and turns them on.
For that, you must do something that's both SIMPLE… and "counter-intuitive".
By counter-intuitive, I mean that you must do something that you'd probably never think of… and you'd never stumble on by accident… because it almost doesn't make sense.
And that's the BEAUTY of it.
Because it's not something that most men think of (or do accidentally), it is INCREDIBLY powerful to do with women… because they never EXPERIENCE it. The "Magic Key" To A Woman's Arousal… Anticipation
The way to take this idea of "slowing down", and multiply its effectiveness… is to add a simple twist to it.
This twist is to actually STOP once in awhile… and GO BACKWARDS a step.
In fact, I call this technique "Two Steps Forward, One Step Back".
And here's why it works:
For a woman, arousal (or being "turned on") is all about ANTICIPATION.
Men get turned on instantly… but women usually take longer. And they ENJOY the process of getting turned on more and more over time.
If you know this simple fact… and you know how to create MENTAL ANTICIPATION… you will know the secret of getting any woman aroused sexually.
Here's how to do it…
Next time you're with a woman, tell yourself that you're going to STOP at every "base", and take a step BACK.
Let's say you've kissed her for the first time.
STOP.
Lean back.
Smile at her.
Start talking again.
And don't touch her

How Can I Be Funny?
How Can I Be Funny? by Martin
How Can I Be Funny?
The essence of comedy and humour, why we perceive certain things as funny and what actually makes us laugh, has been studied and mused upon for decades, with no real definitive conclusions. But the question most commonly asked by the man on the street, which appears to largely have been overlooked is, can I LEARN to be funny? Is it possible to take an average Joe and turn them into the life and soul of the party, by teaching a variety of principles and techniques?
The desire to learn comedy is obvious. The craving for laughter is inherent in every human, no matter how much some people may try to suppress it. Laughter provides us with about the most positive emotional state a human is capable of, so it stands to reason that the man or woman able to regularly induce this emotion will be in high demand. The ability to make people laugh can grant you instant popularity, and the social and potential reproductive value of such a gift is obvious.
But this brings us to another interesting question. Do you really want to be funny, or do you just want to make people laugh? There's a difference. Whilst comedy and laughter are evidently linked, it is certainly not necessary to say something funny in order to induce laughter. People laugh for a variety of reasons, including embarrassment, nervousness, communicating playfulness, or simply as a result of hearing someone else laugh. Understanding this distinction is important, as it can actually help you to be perceived as funnier than you are.
So, let's come back to the original question. Can you learn to be funny? It is my belief that everybody, no matter how socially inept or solemn in demeanour, has the ability to intentionally come up with something 'funny'. What actually constitutes 'funny' is subjective of course, but clearly it is creating humour that appeals to the maximum possible audience and with the greatest impact that is most desirable, and some people have a more inherent gift for this than others. With this in mind however, the question should really be 'can you learn to be funnier?'
Comedy, like pretty much every human ability, is a learned skill, and as with any skill, it can be worked upon and improved. Some people may have a more natural affinity than others, and may be capable of achieving a higher level of mastery in a given field, but any person is capable of attaining a superior level of ability by virtue of persistence, determination, application and guidance. Nobody is born a concert pianist; an international football player; a movie star. Granted, most people couldn't be a concert pianist no matter how hard they tried, but if they practised daily under the guidance of an experienced teacher, would they ultimately become a very proficient piano player? Yes. Comedy is no different.
Whilst I can't snap my fingers and turn you into the next Chris Rock, I can give you some tips on how to start down the path. Here's my top 10:
1. Judge your audience. The subjects you joke about with your friends will likely be very different to what you joke about with your partner, which in turn will be different to family banter. Always be mindful of the people you are with and the environment you are in. There's no hard and fast rules, it's really just intuition.
2. Know when to turn it off. Don't try and be the 24/7 comedian - firstly, because you can't be, and secondly, because no-one would want you to be anyway. You run the risk of becoming the 'class clown', which is not where you want to be.
3. Don't try and make every line a 'funny'. Comedy is about peaks and troughs. You need the lulls to make the high points (ie: the funny lines) work.
4. Comedy requires confidence. You need the confidence to try and be funny in public, and sufficient self-esteem to not be dragged down when one of your attempts at saying something witty backfires (which it will from time to time). There's no easy way to gain confidence, but there's plenty of resources out there that can help you develop it over time.
5. Try some storytelling. A good story, laced with moments of humour, is a great low-risk way to build your comedy confidence up. Ideally, you want to come up with your own, based on a real situation that happened to you (don't tell me nothing funny has ever happened to you!) and then work it over in your head and see how you can dress it up a bit with some comedy touches. Just make sure the story has an interesting point, and it won't matter so much if your funny lines don't come off. If they don't, simply rework them, then tell the story to someone else and see if you get different results. This form of exercise is good for getting your brain into comedy gear.
6. Learn some basic principles. Many people have tried to categorise jokes, with the size of the lists varying enormously. There is simply no definitive way to pigeon hole a particular funny line, but there are certain recurring themes that you can fall back on again and again. Exaggeration is one of the most commonly used methods. The "Your momma's so fat..." jokes maybe a crass example, but serve as a good reference for this principle. Exaggerating something can create a mental image that people find funny. Other useful tools are misinterpretation - taking something someone said deliberately out of context; misleading - taking the listener in a particular direction, then deliberately changing course (many 'classic' jokes are based on this concept); referencing - if something has made everybody in the group laugh, simply referencing it in some way an hour or two later can produce great results, even if your reference isn't particularly funny in its own right.
7. Analyse your favourite comedians. Whatever sketches you're particularly fond of, break down each funny line and ask yourself what it is about the line that made it funny. You'll be amazed how often the exaggeration technique mentioned above crops up, for example. Do not, however, attempt to outright copy the style of your favourite comedian, as it will be incongruent with who you are.
8. Stay out of your head. Don't spend too much conscious thought on trying to be funny in social situations. The jokes come from your unconscious mind. Let it do its work.
9. Don't force it. Comedy should never be forced in public. The only time to force it is when writing comedy or doing exercises to improve your comedy skills. Under these circumstances, quantity is better than quality, because you can always edit your work to remove any deadwood later. It's much better to have a page of bad jokes than a blank page - at least you're working your comic mind, and the chances are, there'll be at least one gem in there somewhere.
10. Learn and practice. There's not many books out there on the subject that aren't geared at wannabe comedians, but it's worth looking around. Absorb all the information you can, then just keep trying stuff out until your confidence builds up. It can take a while, but it can be done.

Can A Truck Really Run On Water?
Can A Truck Really Run On Water? by Jim Warren
Have you heard truck that runs on water? It may sound surprising to some but it is quite real. Some people just do not believe it to be true and think that someone would have played a joke on them. And it does! To be honest, this new idea does break all rules that truck has to run on some form of gasoline.
Even electrically run trucks can be thought of but to think of a truck that can run on water is outrageous. The idea is noble and in a sense, can save one a lot of money provided they take interest.
The gasoline prices are anyways high, and by using water as an alternate fuel instead of gasoline, you could convert the gas guzzlers into mean machines for sure. For you to know, how can you use water to run your trucks, you should read this article.
You would already be thinking that you should be pouring water into the engine. Do that and be prepared to be hit by a hefty repair bill. See - Water is made of Hydrogen and Oxygen. All you have to do is work a technique in separating the Hydrogen and Oxygen. Once you do that you could use Hydrogen, a highly inflammable substance as fuel.
Now they key is - How do you do it? With a process of electrolysis, you could easily break water into Hydrogen and Oxygen separately. There comes the need of an electrolysis device that could do this task, because you cannot do this manually.
A truck that runs on water uses an electrolysis device. This device is used to extract hydrogen from water. The hydrogen extracted can be used as a fuel source in the engine. There are couple of challenges with this working here - 1) Enough amounts of Hydrogen has to be generated, and 2) There has to be a mechanism by which the hydrogen can be transported to the engine. Drivers who have used this as a source have reported difference in results. Thus, you may be better off finding if you can use this as a source or not.
"There's a sucker born every minute," carnival king P.T. Barnum allegedly proclaimed in the fall of 1869. And while Barnum was never known to own an auto dealership (after all, he died in 1891 -- several years before Henry cranked out his first Ford), some might believe his words live on in the heart of every car salesman.

Watch Comedy For Stress Relief
Watch Comedy For Stress Relief by Mark Doyle
With today's fast paced life style many people are dealing with more stress than ever. Factor in the raising cost of gas and slowing of the economy and it is clear to see a population that is stressed out. Growing data indicates that a good belly laugh may be the best way to battle stress. So go to the local comedy club or check out the free comedy clips on line for some stress relief.
Laughter's benefit on your health is no joke, and provide both long term and short term benefits. When you laugh, it doesn't just lighten your load mentally, it actually induces physical changes in your body.
Laughter enhances your intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulates your heart, lungs and muscles, and increases the endorphins that are released by your brain. A good laugh cools down your stress response and increases your heart rate and blood pressure. A good, relaxed feeling, and lower stress rates are the result. Laughter can also ease digestion and stimulate circulation, which helps reduce some of the physical symptoms of stress.
Long term benefits include an improved immune system. Negative thoughts manifest into chemical reactions that can impact your body by bringing more stress into your system and decrease your immunity. In contrast, positive thoughts actually release neuropathies that help fight stress and potentially more serious illnesses. One study, of people with cancer who watched humorous videos showed less stress. and an increase in a particular cell activity that's beneficial in fighting diseases such as HIV and cancer. Research increasingly shows that laughter may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers.
Laughter can also help make difficult situations a little bit easier. One study of nurses who work in emergency rooms found that nurses who use humor in dealing with their patients and co-workers experience greater job satisfaction. They also experienced feelings of personal accomplishment more than do those who do not laugh during their shifts.
The data is in that laughter is good for you, and it is a lot of fun too. So get that funny movie or go to the comedy club or watch stand up comedy online to enjoy the positive effects of humor on your body and mind.

Stop Your Hair Loss
Stop Your Hair Loss Like I Did. by Willie
Stop Hair Loss
A man is lucky to have friends who will be honest with him about the sensitive hair loss subject. I'm no exception. When I bumped into one of my best friends from high school at a local ball game, I could see the shock on his face when he noticed my drastic hair loss. At first, he smiled and made small talk, but then he got very serious. "Willie," he said in a hushed whisper that had me leaning close, "you know bald isn't in. It's way out." His lopsided smile wasn't making fun of my hair loss. I could feel his compassion as he spoke to me. "If you had seen me a few months ago, you'd be thinking that both of us had aged a lot sense high school, but discovering Provillus has changed my life and reversed the hair loss that once plagued me."
I have tried other hair growth and anti hair loss products, and most of those are scams meant to slip the money out of our desperate hands, so I wasn't very excited to try another, but Charlie was so adamant that I knew I'd give Provillus a chance.
Were my hair loss reversal results worth it?
You bet! Looking into my mirror today, I don't see a man ruined by hair loss and old before his time. I see a man who has a lot to offer, a man with a winning smile, a man with shiny hair that commands attention. Never a joke. Never a cruel bald comment. Often, very often, a sexy smile that reminds me I still got it.
Hair loss has a way of taking the excitement out of your life. You know what I'm talking about - I know you do, because I have been there, too. Runs through the park, nights out on the town, dates with interesting people, even family time can be excruciating when you live with the dread that your problems will make you the butt of the joke.

Stop Hair Loss
A man is lucky to have friends who will be honest with him about the sensitive hair loss subject. I'm no exception. When I bumped into one of my best friends from high school at a local ball game, I could see the shock on his face when he noticed my drastic hair loss. At first, he smiled and made small talk, but then he got very serious. "Willie," he said in a hushed whisper that had me leaning close, "you know bald isn't in. It's way out." His lopsided smile wasn't making fun of my hair loss. I could feel his compassion as he spoke to me. "If you had seen me a few months ago, you'd be thinking that both of us had aged a lot sense high school, but discovering Provillus has changed my life and reversed the hair loss that once plagued me."
