Where The Hell Is Chris?

Written by Chris

If you haven’t heard of “Where the Hell is Matt” then check out this video…

I wish I was Matt. I’m still waiting for Tim Ferriss to do some dance when he’s on his worldly trips.

In about 2 months, I’ll be doing the Matt dance in Costa Rica, then Brasil. :)

Any special dance I should do?

Today, I was driving my car with the windows, down listening to some 9.73 The Coast (it’s pure 80’s ALL the time), and a commercial popped up for a bar.

Now let me preface what I’m about to say with something I heard from Michael Masterson of EarlyToRise.com, when he was in the bar business. In an interview I heard him talk about the secrets to a successful bar.

It wasn’t to have the most beautiful women as the bartenders or waiters, but to have good looking male’s working there as well. It makes sense, the girls want to talk to the good looking bartender in hopes that they can take him home. He strings them along for weeks and weeks and brings in business.

Now, these girls coming back to the bar will attract other males. The males then buy the girls the drinks. This starts the circle of endless buying of drinks and cashflow for the bar. (we’ve all been there before).

So this brings me back to my story about this commercial…

So I’m listening to the radio and the ad is for a local bar called, Average Joe’s. WTF!? Average Joe’s? What dude in their right mind, or girl looking for a guy want to find an “average” person?

Maybe I’m missing something, but I wouldn’t want to goto Average Joe’s - EVER. The people in there then label themselves as, you guessed it - AVERAGE.

Girls, go here to find the average guy. Guys, go here to … uh, well, umm… find an average buddy because no girl would ever go here.

Can you think of a better name?

I thought of the All American DoucheBar.

Peace.

On Thursday Justin and I flew into LAX airport to goto Frank Kern’s Mass Control event here in San Diego. Although the event is in San Diego, I figured I’d get a plane ticket in L.A. so then we can make the “cool” drive over to Diego.

What a great idea!

You see, I live in Florida. Yes, flat, landscape deprived, Florida. When I use to drive to Florida State in Tallahassee (i can finally spell it right), it would take me 6 hours to drive there. I’d fill up in Delray and stop in Gainsville to some gas.

On the way up is …well … pretty boring. There’s not much to see. Occasionally you’ll see, a Turnpike station pop up with a Popeyes Chicken or the illustrious Cinnabon. Other than that you’re looking at a lot of tree and flat ground. The only “hilly” place when making the drive is in “Howie-In-The-Hills.” There’s one bump in the road. It’s about a 15 foot bump and probably the highest elevation in Florida.

Ok enough about Florida because California…

Is All It’s Cracked Up To Be!

I’m sitting here in Carlsbad (about 20 minutes north of San Diego) looking at some million dollar mansions in the hills. Here’s my view…

It’s beautiful!

When Justin and I were making the drive from L.A. to here, I can honestly say that the views and landscape were like crack for my eyes. The mountains, the homes, the ocean views (OMG!), the street performers, the fish tacos, the breaks… everything is amazing.

I’ve lived in Florida my entire life and thinking to myself… “I can move here. I have an internet business.”

I’m going to be posting some more photos, videos, and other cool stuff along the way, but for now I gotta jump in the shower and get ready for Kern’s Mass control my mind event ALL day today.

Gosh what a horrible place to be right now…

FREE Language Classes?

Written by Chris

I just came across this very cool Web 2.0 website called, Mango. It’s a complete online language learning platform that contains tons of lessons. Since my girlfriend and my mom speak fluent Portguese, I figured I’d give it a try. Turns out, there over 105 Brazilian Portugese lessons of this site. The best part - it’s 100% free!

Mango

Falo Portugese?
