Habithack: Lose your wallet
Posted By Jeff On October 17, 2007 @ 5:31 am
Just as the title says, you have to lose your wallet. This doesn’t mean throw it off a bridge (just yet) but you have to stop carrying it around. Do you realize how much useless items are in your wallet? I’m sure you don’t. Most people have a card for everything, pictures of everybody they’ve ever met, random ticket stubs and god knows what else. Do you really need to be carrying around a card telling people you’re FBI (Female Body Inspector)? I’ll let you know the answer is no.
Before you go out think about what you know you need, not what you ‘might need’. That will be the big time saver here. I find that the main needs are: Photo ID, Secondary ID/medicare, Debit card, Credit card, cash. For such a small list you surely don’t need to carry around a huge wallet that makes your ass look big.
If you find yourself unable to get rid of all your photos, just get rid of most of them. Wallets usually have that plastic booklet that people put pictures and cards in, start taking just that with you if you must. But in retrospect you don’t need to carry around a lot of pictures, the chances of you ending up on an island by yourself with only your memories is slim.
Once you have yourself cut down, now you can throw your wallet off a bridge. Remember to try and hit the guy in the sailboat for me!

I had to review this show first, because it is SINFULLY addicting. And I love it. ![]()
Meet the Darlings – The average, every day, multi-millionaire family that you can never be. They’re beautiful, they’re rich, they’re adored, and they’re all irreparably screwed up. From Tripp, the patriarch and ring leader, down to Brian, the priest that is ANYTHING but holy, this family is fabulous and I want to be them.
Enter Nick George, son of the Darling family lawyer. Growing up in the shadow of the Darlings, he dislikes the family for breaking up his family. Now, after his fathers plane crashes, he has been drafted by Tripp Darling to become the new family lawyer, and keep the Darling’s little secrets from becoming a scandal worthy of TMZ.
(Speaking of TMZ, I would be remiss not to mention that one of the women on this show was born a man. I won’t say who, but it’s fun to try to find her/him.)
You quickly begin to realize that things with the Darlings aren’t as they seem, and not just with the nutso priest Brian. Each member of the family has their own secrets, their own dirty laundry, and their own insecurities. The level of talent portraying the Darling family is phenomenal (my personal favorite is Donald Sutherland as Tripp Darling) and the sheer magnitude and grandeur of the locations will leave you in awe.
The real draw of the show, however, isn’t the family, but Nick’s father Dutch, the unseen character. During a typical Darling family get-together, Nick finds out that dear Dutch was having an affair with Letitia, the matriarch of the Darling clan and devoted wife of Tripp. Not only that, the Darling children knew about it, and at least one of the children held a deep contempt over it. Now, with the untimely and suspicious death of his father and the recovery of the plane with no body inside, Nick is determined to stay with the family and find out who murdered his father.
All in all, I’m LOVING Dirty Sexy Money. And if you’re a fan of Desperate Housewives or wanted to be but felt it would immaculate you, this is definitely the show for you. For a pilot, this had it all, and I can’t wait for wednesdays.
Score: 9.5/10

So have you heard? There is another public sex scandal, and it involves blogs. What do you mean you haven’t heard of it? Ok, well sit down and I’ll tell you about it then.
It all started with a woman named Jessica Cutler. She worked in more ways then one for Mike DeWine, the conservative GOP senator from Ohio. Her legal profession was sorting mail for $25K a year. However, this little one kept a blog.
In this blog she talked about having sexual relations with people of high power for money. Yes, this is known as prostitution. So, her blog was found, and she lost her job. Now she didn’t lose her job for sleeping with the boss, we all know that is common practice now a days, she got fired for misusing a government computer to publish in this blog.
So how that the shit has hit the fan about her sleeping with men of higher power, the press is eating this up like candy-flavored condoms. She is appearing on TV shows, the news in on the radio and she is simply becoming the next Monica Lewinski. And from what I read in an article from the New York Post, she has already been offered to have her story published.
So what does this show? Well, “To beat the man, you have to sleep with the man” seems to fit for me.
