Skipping Into the New Year

When is the last time you skipped? Truly skipped? Yes, the popular activity of most six-year-old girls. Today I discovered iskip.com. It is a site dedicated to promoting the positive effects of skipping. The site shares that skipping just a few steps can instantly lift your mood and help you reconnect with your buoyant, exuberant, childlike spirit. Hey, that sounds like something I'm trying to do. Who knew? Skipping! The founder Kim Corbin believes that, "Today's world needs as much positive skipping energy as possible. That is why we are on a mission to share the joy and freedom of skipping with young and old alike." …

Hello, This is Santa

One more take on Kris Kringle. Reveries magazine reports on a new way for the kiddies to chat with Santa. Maybe the thought of sitting on Santa's lap is a tad too terrifying for little Jason...but what if Santa made a phone call? “She didn’t want to have anything to do with the big fat man,” says Cindy Richards, referring to her 3-year-old daughter’s response to a real, live, retail Santa Claus. It was another reaction entirely when Santa rang her up by phone, however. Little Cassidy Richards “froze in giddy shock, the phone locked to her ear … ‘I love you Santa,’ she whispered.” …

The Big Drop

This time of year I’m sure many of you would associate ‘the big drop’ with the ball of lights in Times Square that will make it’s big fall just nine short days from now. A few days before Christmas, ‘the big drop’ I think of is much different. …

Road Trip

Last week I almost died. Or at least was pretty darn close to a hospital visit wearing one of those gowns with built-in air conditioning. Kim, Jenna (the Chief Sales Servant), and I were on our way to Milwaukee for a National Speaker's Association meeting. The conversation was light and lively. Christmas music was on the radio. As we approached a flock of cars, I tapped on the brake to slow down, and made a very alarming discovery. The cruise control would not turn off. …

The Happy Side of Santa

So a few posts back I reported on some of the frightening reactions to Mr. S. Claus. From the Montgomery Advertiser comes a more heartwarming tale of a guy who bought a "ratty" old Santa suit eighteen years ago and wore it to a friends Christmas party. Now he's Montgomery's favorite Santa, with 70 holiday bookings this year. What a cool and unique way to spread the Christmas spirit. He seems like a nice enough guy, but I'm certain I still would have be terrified of him. …

Adultitis Survivor

If you've ever seen the Christmas classic, "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas," then you have witnessed first hand how someone who is suffering from a very extreme case of Adultitis can change the way they think and act to be cured from the deadly disease. With the start of the new year Jason and I will be giving you some specific steps on how to make the changes to finally rid yourselves of Adultitis. Look for our new project, The Escape Plan.

Narnia Delivers Childlike Wonder & Imagination

This past weekend, Kim and I did our part to contribute to the $65.5M opening of The Chronicles of Narnia. Great, great movie. I must admit, I haven't read the books (although I just bought the entire collection and I'm partway through the prequel to The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. …
