“Skins” to be continued…

I still haven’t had my cigar but I’m about to get my humidor out and give ’em a whiff. Maybe that’ll open up the flood-gates to let the magic out on the topic of why “The Man” wants young kids to act stupid.
(‘Act stupid’ is a poor sentence and description but using poor sentence structure is a perfect way to describe the tone of that sentence. So there.)
Sooo. Let’s deal with the idea that “Skins” helps folks to see that they should teach their children properly regarding sex and drugs. 
I heard this great story by a Rabbi that said that in order to show your son the ways of the world you wouldn’t take him to the ‘Red light district’ in Amsterdam, give him $1000, and tell him that you’ll see him in the morning. That’s not parenting, that’s foolishness.
The reason that’s foolish is because we don’t teach by showing and then removing, we teach by showing proper behavior, period. 100% we all learn by seeing what someone else did and then realizing that we don’t want that for ourselves but that is taking a situation and getting the most out of it.
Putting something in front of a young person and then saying don’t is Identical to saying, “DON’T THINK OF A PINK ELEPHANT.”
I don’t think that the parents who said that ‘Skins’ shows us what to look out for were saying to have the youngin’ watch the show and show them that bad stuff happens but I decided to go in this direction anyways because I feel like folks are letting life happen to them and not AFFECTING change.
“Oh, this world is just a messed up place.”
We need to do this and we need to do that.
As much as I’m in to action you’ve got to make sure you’re doing the right kind of action.
I was just talking this over with my partner in another company and we were talking about how you don’t just spend time on
Don't be this guy any more. Read 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' by Robert Kiyosaki
your business and expect something to come of it. Unless you’re an employee and you’re not trained to understand the value of time and effectiveness, efficiency, and quality, then just sitting somewhere and gettting a paycheck trained you to think that spending time on something may get results.
Well, guess what??
CRAZY TALK!!
“Piss-poor training leads to piss-poor results.” Practice doesn’t make perfect… Perfect practice makes perfect.
Sooo…
The point is that instead of being shocked with this new show coming out and shaking your head and saying “whoa is me” and thinking the end of the world is coming, do something about it.
AND I DON’T MEAN RALLYING! (Unless you think that’ll help)
What I mean is, BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE! -Focus Up!
That’s right. BE the change you want to see and quit talking about it. Model the type of person you want your children and neighbors to be and don’t just wait for the moment to ridicule them and call them heathens. I don’t mean just “LOVE ‘EM INTO THE KINGDOM.” I just mean to BE what you wish you were seeing on the tele.
Unless you’re one of the idiots and dipS#$&s watching these little boys and girls mess their bodies up. In that case you just sit and read all of my posts. Sitting still where you are and reading this is better than leaving this page or doing something stupid, right? Thanks.
All right. That’s all she wrote. Talk with you later and looking forward to spreading the magic and changing the world, one post at time.
Focus Up.

New MTV Series “Skins”…

What the freak is this all about? Looks like a bunch of dazed yuppie kids.
The first thing that happened as I was about to post some amazing, life-altering message to you was I googled “Talk Radio Niche” and I found this station in San Diego. The show is “Your family matters with Dr. Keith Kanner.”
I listened intently for a good 10-seconds and turned it off. Not because it wasn’t good but because my stinkin’ AT&T (that’s right, I said it) internet connection SUCKS!!! I’ve got it at the office of my other company and guess what??? It SUCKS there too.
But on to better things.
They were talking about “the new MTV show”. Hush, hush, shock and awe. I didn’t have a clue what it was called because that’s all I ever here about the dumb thing. Sooo. I went out on my Sherlock hunt and spent another 15-seconds googling and found the culprit.
Dunh, dunh, dunh. MTV SKINS!!!!
So let’s see what’s going on.
From what I’ve been hearing, which hasn’t been much but typical panic, it seems that everyone is overreacting a bit and panicking about something that may not be all that bad. So here’s a little excerpt from the series description:
“The risqué show, which follows a cast of underage teens popping pills, drinking and engaging in various sexual acts….”
ARE YOU FRICKIN’ KIDDING ME??? Ok. Maybe it is a bit crazy after all. Here’s another bit:
“…not only are the characters underage, the actors are as well – the youngest just 15 years old. According to a “Washington Post” report, Episode 3 will feature a character running down the street naked, after a night of experimenting with erectile dysfunction drugs. The actor in the scene is only 17.”
All right. Don’t take me to be some conservative Kat because I’m really not, but this is some -wait for it-
CRAZY TALK!
Yeah right. That's hot? Why would you want to do anything with her? Maybe I'm crazy.
That’s right. You just heard it in context.
There is a book regarding human behavior and thinking and psychology that sites some extremely shocking information regarding the 6 reasons we do anything. In that book by ‘Robert Chaldini,’ it shows the instance of increased suicide rates in the demographic of the latest suicide. The time range affected suicides even up to more than 3 months after the incident aired on the news!!!
That basically means that when we see someone on TV that we identify with based on age, race, and even location and more, whatever their behavior is we subconsciously and conscious take part in the same behavior.
You want some more CRAZY TALK? Well here you go. It’s getting wild in here now.
THOSE STATS ARE NOT UNKNOWN TO THE YUPPIE RICH PRODUCERS BEHIND THEIR DESKS!
That’s right. When the sophisticated want to collect on some insurance death-benefits they don’t hire a hitman, they find a kid who just committed suicide and put him on the news. You may think I’m crazy but that’s why I’m here and that’s why you’re reading. But I’m not making stuff up and deep down you know it’s true.
So…
The question you may be thinking is why in the world the few yuppies in charge want the youth to behave this way? 
That’s a crazy deep question for a crazy deep time. I’ve got to get my cigar and coffee out for that one and get comfortable.
NEXT TIME…
I’m going to address the idiots that are saying this show helps them and other parents to education their children as to why you should be careful with drugs and sex.
