Why is no one talking about this?!
No no no, not his golf swing. People already talk about that enough though it never gets old. What I want to discuss is his newest venture. One that will keep him contemporary for quite some time.
While I was cruising through some webpages the other day, I came across Sir Charles Barkley's Website Charles Barkley has his own website!!! Bill Walton has his own website so why not Charles too? This website has been immediately put into my favorites and is checked daily. For those of you who believe Charles Barkley is ridiculous, a dramatist, a typical jock, or even consider him to be unbearable . . . you are right but what's wrong with that?
Not only is he a polarizing figure but I find him to be extremely good natured and brutally honest. He is who he is and does not hold back. You cannot deny that the man has an odd sort of charm mixed in with his "in your face" opinions. But this bravado comes with no sugar coating which is one of his best qualities that I truly appreciate in this day and age (along his "melodic eloquence"). Even if you aren't a fan of the man, the least you can do is stop by the site, educate yourself on his "Spanish Word of the Day," and check out his highly interactive site. He may not want to be a role model but he one heck of a sports aficionado.
The Dichotomy Continues . . .
Let's just say I have been taking a relaxing break from blogging in order to re-energize the batteries and am ready to go! During my previous blogs, I was discussing the rise of enlightened babies. After a few weeks, I thought baby commercials were beginning to take over life as we know it however, I started to notice a type of "through the looking glass" evolution. Instead of babies talking like adults . . . adults were talking like babies.
Leave it to a food chain that's slogan is "eat fresh" to come up with ads that are not. Clever and funny they may be . . . innovative they are not.
For as much as I enjoy Subway and their 5 for $5 deals (just as long as I am at a “participating location), I'm tired of the "babying" in ads right and I am ready for the next series of "Dick" commercials directed by Gerald Casale. Now those were awesome! For those of you who are chuckling at the mention of his name and have no idea what I’m talking about . . . . enjoy this!
