Okay, as I’m sitting in the hospital room this morning, waiting for them to discharge my wife, I thought of a new idea for a TV show.

It’s called “Eternity”, and it takes place during that 2 1/2 hour period between the time they say “Congratulations, you’re being discharged!” and the actual time they let you out.

My gosh, how can it possibly take that much time to discharge someone? It’s not the 1800’s…they actually use computers nowadays. Isn’t everything already in there? I mean, it only takes 3 minutes to check out of the Hilton!

You would think that a place that will end up charging $3000 a day would be a little more efficient!

Anyway, the first episode would start with the nurse saying “You’re being discharged.” Then, the next thirty minutes would cut from scene to scene of the main character packing, watching TV, re-packing, napping, playing with their iphone, eating the last rubbery scrap of jello from the previous nite’s dinner, napping some more…then finally, the nurse comes back in and says “We’re just waiting for the doctor to okay this before we finish the papers.” And it starts all over again.

I hate hospitals.

After 22 years of sales, I know that the words you use and how you use them are crucial to your career.

Finding a way to stay in front of current client, and getting new prospects to find out who you are is also crucial.

That is where I come in. I create and maintain blogs for a living, and can do it for you.

Can you create your own blog? Sure! But if you don’t constantly add fresh content to your site on a consistent basis, you will quickly lose your customer base. And, if you’re as busy at your job as most folks are, it is easy to start out strong, but slip on your entries as time goes by.

Blogging is all I do.

Please look at my services and pricing!

If I could time travel, i would go back in time and kick the guy’s ass who invented Little Debbies.

Delicious treats, 10 or 12 to the box, for about a buck. What a jerk!

But I digress…

If I could really go back in time, I’d go back to the week before Weight Watchers was created, and start it myself. They must be making a billion dollars a year!

My wife and I go to WW, and it’s a good class. The instructor is caring, the class is supportive, and the program really, truly helps. But I also see a lot of people use it in a way that disturbs me.

I’m big on business concepts. One of the biggest pillars of business is Return On Investment, or ROI. It is simply this: What do you get back for the money you spend?

Now, WW costs about $40 per month to join. You don’t have to buy their food, which is good, but you usually buy a little something from their shop. Then, many of us join a gym as an additive to the program…that can be $30-$50 per month additionally.

When I spend that kind of cash a month (about $90) I want to see 4-5 lbs a week come off. I know, the health industry feels a 2 lb weight loss per week should be the max…but screw that! I weigh alot, and I want it gone!

I see way too many people treat WW, and it’s probably similiar in other weight loss programs, like a social club. They’re content with a .2 or .3 lb loss, or if they gain a half pound, they laugh it off. They laugh and have  a great time during the meeting, and hope that next week they may or may not lose weight.

I don’t get it!!! If I wanted to pay $90 bucks per month to socialize, I’d just go to a bar and order wings and a pitcher…

…which is what got me here in the first place.

It is, indeed, a brutal circle.

Is “moronity” a word? If not, it should be.

I, by nature, am a political beast. I love the intricacies of politics, the song and dance of issues, the drama of debate.

That being said, this political season is a hoot!

We’re all used to politicians slinging mud and acting outside the bounds of moral acceptance. However, I have never seen two candidates go at each other like a couple of 5 year olds without a nap!

On one side, you have the Obama people, who are fervently following the “rock star” Senator who uses the word “change” every third word. Then, on the other side, the Clintonites, who believe that 8 years as a president’s wife is all the experience needed to run a nation.

And in the middle…us! People, we need to not take this so seriously, and enjoy the ride! This is quite possibly the funniest thing on TV since the Soup Nazi episode of Seinfeld!

Both sides are goin’ at each other, McCain’s people are laughing on the side, and we get to witness this! It’s great!

So, please…after a long day of work at home, don’t kick the dog or yell at your spouse. Just flip on the news, and have a great laugh!

Oh yeah…and every time you use the word “moronity’, you owe me a nickel!

I’m Chris Whigham, and I want to write something for you!

Actually, I built this site to dish out some great advice for companies and individuals who want to get the word out…and get it out properly!

I have been in the business world for 21 years, and have seen some great, and some not-so-great, written words for business. More often than not, it was the latter.

My goal is to help folks increase their incomes using concise,professional and attention grabbing words.

Thanks for visiting!
