Time to Get Some Hats
Freedom. New Horizons. Curiosity. Adventure. Adrenaline. Limitless.
These words are meant to conjure a state of mind of time and inspiration. They should encourage us to embrace the wildly fearless and randomly proficient spirit of the one and only Kevin…Kevin Rawley that is.
“Little Fockers” was on television this past Saturday. Diving head first into the majestically blue waters of the ambiguously defined character of Kevin, the actor and professional wandering spirit Owen Wilson must first have a light shone on him.

Sans the money from investing in Wireless IPO”s right before they skyrocketed, lower key endeavors are certainly attainable. Just like his characters’ many hats, we too must add our own threads of creativity and motivations towards new opportunities.

Whatever speaks to us.
Keep Everything Vastly Imaginative Now!
Happy Monday!

Fortunately, for everyone who hasn’t seen it, as well as those who have, the writers of “The Big Bang Theory” made the executive decision for Simon Helberg/Howard Wolowitz to inject his voice-altering talents into the latest episode.
To set the scene: They’re playing Dungeons and Dragons, there’s mysticism, Nicolas Cage and a special appearance from a guy who is famous for having a scar on his face…
