Sweet 16 and Questions

Turning sixteen brings with it several responsibilities: getting a license, perhaps a job, maybe you can start dating, oh, and hearing horrible jokes about getting a license, a job, and starting to date.

Introducing...

We are a people of phrases and sayings. Sometimes it seems that everything we say is just a series of pre rehearsed one liners. So much so that even the words "that is so cliche," have become cliche. We force these words out when we talk to acquaintances, people we are trying to impress, and sometimes people we know well. We have all said them, we continue to say them, and even when it's brought to our attention like this, we will continue to say them. We'll also continue to get the same reaction from our audience. A courtesy laugh or a simple nod in agreement that they perfected the first 1300 times that they heard the same words. I introduce to you a video blog series highlighting many of these cliche sayings. There's no way that all of them will be covered, but I would encourage you to check back often. This will be updated as often as possible. There could be a new one every couple of days or every couple weeks depending on demand and time available. Please leave comments and let me know what you think. Here are two videos to kick things off. There are many more in the works.
