Half-Nekkid Thursday - Redux

Don't ask me what brought this edition on. I guess it was just one of those inspirational moments that I couldn't shake. I decided to post one of my favorite HNT's (which I know is an upcoming theme....but I have many more!!), along with a similar shot that I took today in my current frame of mind. I'm not really sure I like it, but it is what it is!!

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Holiday! I've got some cool pics from the weekend to post later.

Happy HNT Everybody!!

26. The first product Motorola started to develop was a record player for automobiles. At that time, the most known player on the market was the Victrola, so they called themselves Motorola.

George Carlin said it best about Martha Stewart ... "Boy, I feel a lot safer now that she's behind bars. O. J. Simpson and Kobe Bryant are still walking around; Osama Bin Laden too, but they take the ONE woman in America willing to cook, clean, and work in the yard, and they haul her ass off to jail."

Happy HNT and Turkey Day To All, & Happy Birthday To Me!!

Because of the Thanksgiving holiday and my almost certain absence from the computer until Monday, I'm posting my HNT today, and my wishes for a Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

First business of the day is my HNT - Blue Collar Edition III. As always, I give thanks to the men and women who take pride in their work, who work hard to support their families, and who ask for nothing more than a decent wage, safe work environment and health insurance.

Secondly....Happy Thanksgiving to Everyone!! Don't eat too much!!

And, thirdly.....Happy Birthday to Me on Friday!!!

All of these days off with EVERY reason to celebrate are going to spell trouble for me (and my liver)!!! LOL

Be Safe, Be Happy, Be Thankful.

Beauty Tips

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness....

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people....

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry....

For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day....

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone....

People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have TWO HANDS; one for helping yourself, and one for helping others. (Audrey Hepburn)

I needed some uplifting today, so I thought I would post something inspiring. Hope everyone is doing well!!

Happy Birthday Melly Monster

Half-Nekkid Thursday - NFL Edition II

My reason for posting another NFL shot is two-fold. The first reason being that I didn't have enough time to take any new pics because I'm working two jobs. The second reason is to give a shout out to Emmitt Smith for kicking ass on Dancing with the Stars.....Whooo Hoo... I LOVE a man who can dance!!

Besides, I've got to do something to get my Chiefs a win this week!!!

Remember to: Work Like You Don't Need the Money, Love Like You've Never Been Hurt, and Dance Like Nobody's Watching!!

I hope you all have a great day!! ~Jenlicious~
