Hello! Can We Lose the Soapbox on Obesity Already?
By Greg Dragon at October 26, 2011 | 8:51 am | 0 Comment
As a writer, one of the most annoying things to deal with is when a favorite topic gets abused by everyone (other writers) to the point where it is no longer worth writing about anymore. This is because readers get really sick and tired of hearing it. One of these topics which I love to write and talk about is obesity, being that I am big into fitness and living a fitness more...
Facebook Exposes People’s Ugly Side, Do You Really Know Your Friends?
By Greg Dragon at July 26, 2011 | 9:34 am | 0 Comment
There’s a guy that I know who seemed pretty cool and went out of his way to hail me up and chat to me at parties. Recently one of his closest friends that is like a brother to me told me how racist he was behind closed doors and while it was a bit disappointing, I was glad that I got the warning. Classic Art of War my dear denizens “know thy enemy”. Do I act more...
Will Your Future Spouse Be a Financial Asset or Liability?
By Greg Dragon at June 10, 2011 | 11:15 am | 0 Comment
One thing that people tend to neglect to do is to look in the mirror initially before making themselves the de facto financial expert in the relationship. In a lot of situations people who seemingly are doing well are just wearing a fancy mask to cover an ugly liability sheet. The person who doesn’t care about or ignores finances goes into relationships with more...
Kung Fu Theater: Shaolin Temple Strikes Back Review (1972)
By Greg Dragon at May 10, 2011 | 2:25 pm | 0 Comment
If there’s any movie to exemplify the honor and selflessness of the Shaolin monks it would be Shaolin Temple Strikes Back. In this epic, monk Ce Ling starts off as a humble warrior whose job it is to protect an 11 yr old princess from the Manchu horde. When the Manchus kill her father and slaughter his kingdom, they attempt to kidnap her in order to force her hand more...
How You Process Relationship Advice Determines It’s Effectiveness
By Greg Dragon at May 5, 2011 | 7:20 am | 0 Comment
Recently I have been reading a lot of articles on other sites that discount relationship advice and hold their givers to a level that is practically impossible to attain. People hint at the fact that if you aren’t perfect (in their eyes) then you cannot be qualified to advise anyone on love and relationships. Of course I cry foul to this as an advice giver myself but more...
Kung Fu Theater: Seven Steps Of Kung Fu (1979)
By Greg Dragon at April 19, 2011 | 10:22 pm | 0 Comment
Before I go into the review of this film I must preface by saying that this movie has hands-down some of the best kung fu sequences I have ever seen. The choreography is ridiculous and the fights, especially the ones later on in the movie are intense. Chang Shan is a master but Chang Tin Chee is equally impressive as the two protagonists drop knees on the more...
How Men Can Develop Confidence When Approaching Women
By Greg Dragon at April 15, 2011 | 5:09 am | 0 Comment
Whilst looking over the old journal that I kept throughout high school and the early years of college, I realized that it took the club life to instill within me the confidence to not doubt myself. Listening to some friends today who put themselves down even before engaging a female, I found passages within the journal when I was feeling very much the same way about girls more...
Why Old Scars and Lazy Stereotypes Keep People Lonely!
By Greg Dragon at March 7, 2011 | 12:46 pm | 0 Comment
Isn’t this sad, this statement which is the title? But many times we write off potential mates due to the transgressions of one or two people in our past. Hell, I’ve seen whole sites dedicated to teaching black women to seek out men of lighter persuasion due to black men’s lack of money, education and apparently condoms (SNARK!) It’s pretty cruel to make a more...
Should Writers Be Honest Or Pander To Their Readership?
By Greg Dragon at February 7, 2011 | 3:12 pm | 0 Comment
One thing that is hard to do when you are the head writer for any online publication is to stay 100% honest. This is due to the fact that unlike our commenters and guest writers we are held accountable for our posts. When you start a blog you let everyone within your circle and your circle’s circle know that you have words to share in hopes of getting a broader more...
Online Dating: “I Like Your Complexion, Let’s Hook Up”
By Greg Dragon at December 30, 2010 | 10:30 am | 0 Comment
Anybody else ever get this message from women seeking a date? “Hi I like your complexion, I really think we need to hook up, blah, blah, blah” Well I have yet to got this one from non black women but I am willing to bet it’s on the tip of their tongues when contacting me. What’s the deal? this is a new one to me yet lately, I’ve gotten quite a few more...
