Shopping Woes

Thursday, December 11th, 2008

Welcome back!

Have you seen the people in the stores? Many of them have such severe frowns, that I would not want to be on the road with them.

If you are looking for a sale, try going online in order to avoid the traffic, especially the sour pusses. I have seen some commercials for Buy.com that are very funny. Howie Mandel is in 2 of them. In one he talks to an office person who seems to take great delight in not having to leave his cubicle in order toshop. The man looks like the guy from ‘The Core’ who was the computer expert, he should know computers after all. The other commercial has Howie talking to a Christmas tree asking for ideas on how to tell people about the free shipping. The dude wearing the tree costume has no ideas. How can someone wearing a tree costume have no ideas about Christmas? The look on Howie’s face should be priceless.

I always thought that Christmas was a time for happiness, and joy. I know that times are tough, but frowns make things tougher for you and for everyone around you. A smile will take less effort from your facial muscles and help save wrinkles later on. All that I can say is that giving a smile once in a while does help, these commercials help with that. :)

Have You Smiled Lately?

Monday, January 14th, 2008

I like to smile. It gives my face something to do besides just sit there. A face that isn’t exercised gets bored. It might frown. That’s bad, it makes people think something is wrong. There are things that are going wrong in the world; and frowning won’t make them better. I have noticed, however, that a smile is something good. Did you know that if you smile, you use less of the muscles in your face than if you frown? I know exercise is good and all that but which would you rather show to the people around you?

A frown on your face will create a space around you that people give those who look angry. I guess the people don’t want the anger to rub off on them. Well, I don’t blame them. Too many people are angry these days.

At the same time, try walking in a crowd and smile! Sometimes people will smile back. I have seen times where a tired, sad looking person will see a smile and smile back. They will lift up their head and straighten their shoulders and it seems to help. Smiles usually don’t hurt you or others. It’s even an easy exercise. Remember a smile is easy on the face–less wrinkles. People don’t seem to be wary of smilers, just the frowners. So exercise your face a little–SMILE.
