			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow, Melanie &amp; I just finished watching Sex and the City from the very first episode, through the very last, over the last few weeks.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Sex-City-Special-Candice-Bergen/dp/B001DDBCUU/thbipibl-20"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-165" title="Sex and the City - Extended Cut" src="http://www.charly2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/picture-1.png" alt="Sex and the City - Extended Cut" width="271" height="212" /></a></p>
<p>And tonight&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-164"></span>We watched the movie (extended cut)!</p>
<p>All I can say is WOW, what an amazing show!</p>
<p>I feel like it should be required viewing for both guys &amp; girls right after high school, just before entering college.</p>
<p>I feel *incredibly* fortunate to have found Melanie! <img src='http://www.charly2.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>It seems like I have some new friends, Steve, Aidan, Mr. Big&#8230;   They&#8217;re all people I know, and it&#8217;s interesting how they are actually like real people I do know&#8230;</p>
<p>Samantha, Miranda, Charlotte, and Carrie &#8211; I know girls who totally remind me of each of them too.</p>
<p>What I found really interesting was the incredible connection I had with Carrie when she was totally devastated, for days, in the movie tonight.</p>
<p>The acting &amp; directing was superb, at least, to me.</p>
<p>I felt, and lived, that exact way when I hit rock-bottom in 2005 after it was decided that I was getting divorced.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t seen an episode of Sex and the City before, I suggest you start with Episode 1, Season 1, and see what you think&#8230;  Otherwise, let me know what you think!</p>

<p><span id="more-95"></span></p>
<p>I review how much I really enjoy my compact point-and-shoot Canon digital camera &#8212; the Canon PowerShot SD 850 IS.   Although I believe the 850 IS is discontinued, I&#8217;ve used the newer SD 1100 IS, and it&#8217;s even better!</p>
<p>Anyhow, when you really get into Squidoo, and see some of the pages people have created, it&#8217;s quite exciting.</p>
<p>I have many more ideas for things to post on Squidoo as well.  Stay tuned. <img src='http://www.charly2.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Take a look, if you have a second, let me know what you think about Squidoo!  I&#8217;m very curious!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Quite a few people have noticed that I&#8217;ve lost weight over the last year&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.howdoiloseweightnow.com"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-52" title="picture-2" src="http://www.charly2.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/picture-2.png" alt="" width="390" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;m really excited to announce the debut of my new web site that reviews:</p>
<p><span id="more-51"></span></p>
<ul>
<li> how I&#8217;ve done it,</li>
<li>the lessons I&#8217;ve learned in 10 years of trying,</li>
<li>why it&#8217;s been extremely successful for me now, and</li>
<li>how you can do it too, if you want to.</li>
</ul>
<p>My site is <a title="How Do I Lose Weight Now?" href="http://www.howdoiloseweightnow.com/knowing-your-bmi-and-bmr/" target="_self">www.HowDoILoseWeightNow.com</a>, and goes after two of the biggest learn phrases people type in Google:</p>
<ol>
<li>How Do I Lose Weight</li>
<li>Lose Weight Now</li>
</ol>
<p>Quite a while ago I realized that the only way I could really lose weight, keep it off, and be the best I could be, would be to change my lifestyle.</p>
<p>My new web site talks about creating a lifestyle you can life with.</p>
<p>The words of James Hetfield on Metallica&#8217;s St. Anger&#8217;s CD really made me think a few years ago:</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Your lifestyle determines your death style&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>and got me thinking:</p>
<p><em>What I do now, will really determine if I&#8217;m around to see my girls get married, see my grandchildren, and experience as much of life as possible.</em></p>
<p>When you get down to it &#8212; you have this small space in time starting from the day you&#8217;re born, until the day you die, to do as much as possible&#8230;</p>
<p>What totally hit home for me though was being with one of my best friends &#8211; <a title="Remembering Gramms." href="http://www.chc2.com/gramms/" target="_self">my grandma</a> &#8211; as she withered away from cancer 6 years ago.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.chc2.com/gramms"><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.chc2.com/gramms/images/gramms.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Over the course of her battle, we had a couple of really good conversations about life lessons.</p>
<p>One of the very last things ever she said to me was &#8211;</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Don&#8217;t ever let life pass you by, be sure to make the most of every day&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Not only did she live a very active lifestyle (tennis, boating, snowmobiling!), in my opinion, she did make the most of her days!</p>
<p>I never forgot that, and it&#8217;s taken me 6 years to lay a foundation, and create a lifestyle that works for me.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s to you Gramms! <img src='http://www.charly2.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>If you have any feedback, or hints &amp; tips you&#8217;ve found helpful in losing weight, please let me know!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to be posting new articles every week &#8211; and would love to find out what you may have tried!</p>

<p>I received my latest issue of Success Magazine, and I made it in there!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.charly2.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/success02.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-38" title="success02" src="http://www.charly2.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/success02.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>What&#8217;s really interesting about it is <strong>the leads it&#8217;s generated</strong> for Internet Services Group!  Quite a few people have searched directly in Google, visited our web site, and inquired.</p>
<p>As a matter of fact, today, we just landed a web site development job in Las Vegas directly from me being in the magazine!  Whoo hoo!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve developed a News Release around this, and I&#8217;ll be posting it soon on the ISG web site &#8211;</p>
<p>The release talks about how I grew up around passionate people, my mom, my dad, my grandparents, and how they&#8217;ve all really enjoyed what they&#8217;ve done relating to work &amp; income.</p>
<p>In the release, I also talk about how I started a new company on my birthday this year called Interesting Ventures, LLC which is all about promoting what the different topics I&#8217;m passionate about for the benefit of many.</p>
<p>You can see one of my Interesting Ventures projects here &#8212; it&#8217;s still under development, but you get the idea:</p>
<p><a title="How Do I Lose Weight Now?" href="http://www.HowDoILoseWeightNow.com" target="_self">www.HowDoILoseWeightNow.com</a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve got a couple other sites in the works, and you&#8217;ll be able to see them soon, too.</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s all for now &#8212; if you happen to be in a bookstore, check it out!  I&#8217;m on the page facing Jay Leno (about 12 pages in).</p>
<p>Have a great day!</p>
