This is us playing Farkle (a fun dice game) over at my uncles house. My dad is about to put all his points on the line. (hence the intense looks on all faces) Families are definitely one of the most important things ever.

From the article
“It’s a great story for us whenever an entrepreneur makes a crazy amount of money and we get to tell the world about it. For the entrepreneur? Not so much. Hitherto unknown relatives, entrepreneurs seeking angel investments, money managers and supposed baby-mamas all come out of the woodwork with dollar signs in their eyes.
Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh and COO/CFO Alfred Lin have figured out a way to cope with everyone wanting their money: Giving everyone my email address and telling them I’m in charge of their investments.
The first time I saw a Redbox, I knew that Blockbuster and Hollywood Video were doomed. Here is proof.
This doesn’t mean that they can’t evolve. Blockbuster and Hollywood can carry a huge range and a bigger inventory than a Redbox machine can. They need to maybe focus on quality. I would still consider going to Blockbuster if they had only “the best” movies and maybe a recommendation engine. Right now, I enter one and see hundreds of cheaply made movies that no one has heard of on the isles, and a couple of hits or recent releases on the end caps.
If they don’t adapt, it looks like this recession is going to put an end to Blockbuster and Hollywood.

I was trying to take a screenshot of a necklace that my sister liked in a movie and Apple gave me this error.
Why? Every other screen capture program can do this? Obviously some movie company didn’t like the idea of pictures of their movie being available. Why? It is a free advertisement for your movie if I post a picture or if a little girl makes a necklace like the one in the movie. Don’t make it hard for consumers.
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the 'Peanuts' comic strip.
You don't have to actually answer the questions.
Just read straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America pageant.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.
These are no second-rate achievers;
They are the best in their fields.
But the applause dies.
Awards tarnish.
Achievements are forgotten.
Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
Easier?
The lesson:
The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials…
the most money…
or the most awards.
They are simply the ones that care the most.
Notice the sweet lighting.
Epic wakeboarding followed. It was great.
