Tomorrow is Fight Procrastination Day...
Tomorrow!
For me, the day started with coffee, eggs, and bacon. :) I guess the smoke alarm went off at 11:30 last night, but not with the bacon. (Can smoke detectors predict the future?)
Then we headed downtown, filming on the way, to get a parking space before the show started. If you had seen my videos, even at noon, the line was over a mile long, with cars waiting to get into the show.
Jacob, Tina, and I wandered around as the show picked up. You will see a yellow Mustang that I would not mind owning. And the best shirt of the morning? "John Wick didn't kill all those people over a Camaro." :P
We walked around talking to people. Such a friendly group of people at these Adirondack Nationals 35th CAR SHOW .
Then, Jacob and I headed up to town to film more, while Tina watched the water go by.

The day serves as a reminder of the critical role that charitable organizations and individuals play in addressing global challenges such as poverty, hunger, disease, and inequality. By focusing on charitable activities, the International Day of Charity aims to inspire people to contribute to causes they care about, whether through monetary donations, volunteering, or spreading awareness.
One of the key objectives of the International Day of Charity is to encourage individuals and communities to support charitable organizations and initiatives. This can be done in various ways, including making financial contributions, participating in charity events, donating goods, or offering time and skills to help those in need. The day also emphasizes the importance of collaborative efforts between governments, private sectors, and non-profit organizations in addressing social issues.
In addition to individual actions, the International Day of Charity highlights the impact of collective efforts in making a difference. Many organizations use this day to launch fundraising campaigns, volunteer drives, or special events aimed at raising awareness and garnering support for their causes.

How to Observe Eat an Extra Dessert Day
The day should be celebrated by eating an extra dessert. As the name implies, it is assumed that you are already eating dessert on a daily basis. On this day you should eat an extra dessert. But, don’t get carried away, as to be true to the holiday you should really only eat one extra dessert. Try a dessert popular in another country, or plan a trip to one of the best dessert spots in the United States. Make your own desserts, and read a book about the history of desserts.

Another Look Unlimited Day, observed annually on September 2, is a day dedicated to encouraging individuals to reconsider and reassess their perspectives, decisions, and approaches in various aspects of life. The day emphasizes the value of fresh insights and the benefits of examining situations from different angles, fostering personal growth and improvement.
The concept behind Another Look Unlimited Day is rooted in the idea that revisiting and re-evaluating our choices, beliefs, and strategies can lead to significant positive changes. Whether it’s revisiting a project at work, reconsidering a personal goal, or re-evaluating relationships, the day encourages individuals to take a step back and view things from a new perspective. This can lead to better decision-making, increased creativity, and more effective problem-solving.
On this day, people are encouraged to engage in activities that promote reflection and open-mindedness. This might involve revisiting past goals to assess progress, exploring new ideas or hobbies that challenge existing routines, or having meaningful conversations with others to gain different viewpoints. The goal is to foster a mindset that values continual learning and growth, rather than settling into complacency.
Another Look Unlimited Day also serves as a reminder that it’s never too late to make changes or adjustments in our lives. By embracing the opportunity to reassess and make informed decisions, individuals can enhance their personal and professional lives. It’s an invitation to embrace change and view it as an opportunity for growth rather than a challenge to be avoided.
In essence, Another Look Unlimited Day promotes a proactive approach to personal development and encourages individuals to continuously seek improvement by considering alternative perspectives and revisiting past decisions.

How to Observe Another Look Unlimited Day
The day is celebrated by finding things you don’t need anymore and giving them to charity or to friends. Also, it is a day to be creative and find different purposes for old things you no longer use. Many things can be crafted into decorations or can be changed to be used as something else. Find an object you no longer want and search the internet to see if there is something else it can be used for.
Sometimes Enough is Enough
Happy Tuesday.

I am a 62-year-old man who has been in the media business on one level or another for over 20 years. I have been in TV, radio, print and the internet over the years. I am concerned about the division that is taking over the media and what it does to people. I fully understand that the world is topsy-turvy. BUT, I am not going to sit and accept the craziness.
Positive News For You is my answer.
It is my response to the negativity that would come from the internet, radio, television, and print. Right now there is not a lot, to begin with, but it is my dream that others will begin to participate. That at first there will a story here and story there, but soon our email boxes will be filled with “good news”.
Some will say, “The news only gets worse.”
Only when we buy into it.
What if we “defund” it by putting our monies into positive news?
Yes, I recently created this website because I believe people deserve better. Oh, it may start slowly, but I believe someone needs to do something. Every day someone rescues a pet or pulls a child from danger. Every day brave men and women risk their lives for their beliefs that they can make a difference.
Take a moment to like this page and read a story or two. Then share the site with others.
And yes, I am hoping investors will come along. I am hoping writers will appear.
