Gisele Bundchen Weight

How Much Does Gisele Bundchen Weigh

Gisele Bundchen WeightI am fortunate to answer the question, “how much does Gisele Bundchen weigh?” because this gives me a chance to show you a bunch of pictures of Gisele Bundchen.

Really, how great of a job is that? It’s early Sunday morning and I am going to be spending time with you talking about, and looking at, Gisele Bundchen.

If you think I am fortunate, consider Tom Brady. He is waking up on this Sunday morning right next to Gisele Bundchen. Imagine that! Waking up next to Gisele Bundchen…

Hmmm. Tom Brady has got to be one of the luckiest guys on the planet.

The Process of Copying a DVD: Is It Difficult?

is-copying-dvds-difficultWhen I first wanted to copy a DVD, I did lots of research on the Internet.  The articles I came across made the process seem so difficult.  But, after distilling it down to just three simply components, it’s actually pretty easy.

When you want to copy a DVD movie to another DVD, there are three things that need to take place:

  1. First, if the DVD has encryption you will need software to decrypt the DVD.
  2. Second, because you just have one DVD in your computer, you will need to copy the files from the DVD player to the hard drive.
  3. And, third, you will need to burn the data from your hard drive to the DVD.

My friends told me of a particular New York Craigslist post the other night that I had not seen.

In the post, a “spectacularly beautiful” woman requests a man who earns greater than $500,000 a year.

The Curious Case of Fatherly Fashion

Dad Fashion Beer GutThis is a fashion piece. Particularly, fatherly fashion.

Let nobody be confused. I am the last person who should write about fashion. If you meet me one year, and then again ten years later, you might be left with a question: Wasn’t he wearing that same shirt ten years ago?

So, I have no qualifications to write this, except one: being human. And, right now, my human eye is in the airport looking at a father with his three daughters. I can’t help but note that his attire is similar to many fathers.
