Every generation has its own slang. And that slang sounds pretty weird to somebody who is from another generation.

I love collecting slang terms from bygone days.  And so I’m sure the term “geevum” was in wide-spread use when The Geevum Girls ran in daily newspapers.

Thanks again to BarnaclePress for bringing us such amazing novelties that have been almost forgotten by comical history.

If you’re having problems with you’re songs beginning to sound the same, I’ve found that working with a diverse producer helps a great deal. Maybe you should even think about the music you listen to. Try listening to different styles of music, I did a search and found unbelievable amounts of songs from all over the world and although i couldn’t understand the lyrical content due to the language barrier the melodic detail blew me away! Now I’ve been inspired in a totally different way

Always come morning 

The first time I ran into  Otto Soglow‘s character “The Little King,” I thought, “Hmmm — this is pretty weird.  But the more I read, the more enchanted I became.

This is a unique take on comic strips. The King never speaks a word, and manytimes, nobody else does either.  It’s like mime comics!

If you want to peek at the weird world of the Little King — just click on the link and jump to the Joyville tribute of this comic strip treasure.

I can’t express to you the value of a resource such as Lewis LaLanne’s (aka Nerd #2) My Note Taking Nerd’s Blog.

Robert J. Ringer's best-seller "Million Dollar Habits"A terrific example is his guide to Robert J. Ringer’s legendary book Million Dollar Habits.

I first read Winning Through Intimidation shortly after finishing school and joining the work force.

What an eye-opener! I was raised in the Puritan work ethic of “Be Nice, Don’t Question Authority, Just Do What You are told.”

I immediately glommed on to his follow-up, Looking Out For #1

He has written other books since, and they are all worthwhile reads.

But if you don’t have time to read all the books — or you want a synopsis to see if they are worth your time to seek out and read — that’s where our Nerd comes in handy.

Not only business people can learn from Ringer’s philosphies — they are good life lessons — especially in our age of political and religious pressures affecting every-day life.

Ringer has his own blog, also — highly recommended reading.

A tomcat in existential trouble searching for the light

Tom & Jerry were movie stars who got their own comic book.

Yeah, movie stars. At least for six minutes at a time.

Their “animated shorts” were big hits in the 1940s — kinda like the warm-up act for the feature movies.

So it’s only natural they would spread out to other media.

Here’s a history of how they made the jump from the big screen to the little page.

But of course, you have to click on the link: Joyville

(It will be worth your while — I promise)
