Do The Future A Favor- Tell A Child You Love About ZZ Top TODAY

October 17, 2011 / Paul Eide

If we don’t pass on the oral tradition of just how great their beards were, who will? The answer is, sadly, no one. In today’s “metrosexualized” world of “manscaping” and “ear hair removal”, a band like ZZ Top would’ve never made it onto a stage in your local town. Musical talent you say? Puffttt. In today’s “plucked eyebrow” musical universe, they would’ve been voted off “X Factor” before they made it in from the parking lot.

So please, pull a youth in your care aside tonight for an hour, and make them ingest Deguello before bed.

Billy Zane Is A Cool Dude

October 14, 2011 / Paul Eide

For an entire generation, Billy Zane made it cool to be bald again. Like a lot of men are forced to do, BZ endured a public battle with progressive baldness. Rather than cowering in the face of it and getting into a public “walk off” that he couldn’t possibly win (unlike one D. Zoolander) , BZ didn’t get sucked into the “comb over” or even the godforsaken “Spray On Hair.”

Maybe it was his defined jaw line, or chiseled facial features but Billy Zane rocked it and Hollywood embraced it.

If you’re going bald, take the Billy Zane route- he invented the “cool bald guy look.” If it weren’t for Billy Zane, there would have never been a Jason Statham.

Troy Polamalu’s Hair Will Be Impeccable Forever

October 12, 2011 / Paul Eide

Troy Polamalu’s flowing mane is perhaps the most legendary in NFL history and the Head and Shoulders ad campaign championing his long locks is easily one of the most memorable marketing campaigns in the last ten years.

Yesterday, his hair and the campaign which forced its rise into full public view beyond the gridiron were both immortalized by the wax works of Madame Tussauds in New York City. The wax statue of the Steelers stud is dubbed “Legendaryous Troy” was unveiled yesterday and has double the amount of hair of any other wax figure ever created.

Brown Belt With Black Shoes- Really, Sir?

October 8, 2011 / Paul Eide

On its face it looked like a normal outfit- a smart black polo, tucked neatly into an equally black pair of “Chaps” pants. But that was while he was sitting down, his outfit obscured by a well-placed table top.

Suddenly, he stood up to corral a beverage from the bar and his fashion sin became overtly obvious.

One so heinous, so egregious, a sin to outweigh all other combined it cannot be overlooked. And that sin is wearing a brown belt with black shoes. There is nothing on earth that looks more dorky, even wearing an “Alf” shirt. How old are you, sir? Old enough to know better.

Fitness should be a year-round goal

October 6, 2011 / Staff

Are you one of the many who focuses on fitness in January after the holidays or in May as pool season is approaching?

Try breaking that pattern this year, and use the fall season to get started on a year-round program.

Think about starting some new exercises. If you haven’t been doing weight training, then maybe this is a good time to start.

Also, if you’re going to try a new approach on working out, then take a look at protein powder and creatine supplements. These are important supplements if you’re serious about building muscle, but keep in mind that overall nutrition and eating habits are equally important. These items should supplement your diet. Do your research and consult your doctor or a nutritionist, but things like whey protein can be great tools in your fitness program.

Also, thing about what your goals are – building muscle, getting ripped, losing that belly? Every person should come up with their own goals, but the key is doing something! Don’t settle into bad habits as usual during this time of year.
