Day 2 of the great slack off continues. I woke up late, went to play tennis, ate an egg, sausage and bagel, and now I am watching the Cosby Show in the middle of a work day while enjoying a mimosa. Tomorrow I will return to the daily grind, but for now, I am still chillin...

I also have come up with a new job for myself. Common Sense Advisor to pro athletes. Somewhere between high school and professional sports these athlete lose their common sense, and in some cases it is highly debatable whether they EVER had it. You have guys drunk driving, beating women, taking steroids, dog fighting, buying 66 cars, and the people around them, including their agents, just enable them, and tell them that as long as they perform on the field/court everything would be fine. My job would be to bring the reality back to the equation, and to paint a picture for them, about what the consequences of their actions would be. I guarantee my services would be in high demand. I wouldn't charge THAT much money either, I'd just be trying to keep these gentlemen out of trouble. For some reason, female athletes(except Marion Jones) are able to avoid this type of trouble..then again, there are way more male athletes so that's not a fair comparison. Anyway, I should draw up a business plan, and pitch it to someone.

ok back to "work"....
