Hey Listers,

In case you didn’t know, Facebook is the cause of the two  latest social networking crazes: a list of 25 random things about oneself, and  tagging an emoticon poster (aka a picture of smiley faces with different  emotions) with the appropriate Facebook friend. I will avoid mentioning the  latter again, in order to not give it any more legs than its already grown.

The other craze has already grown legs, legs like the giant  spider monster in Lord  of the Rings: Return of the King. Everyone was doing it. Every major news  source had stories about it. Imagine Beanie  Baby Teletubbies that laugh when you tickle its stomach. Yeh, that big. But  fortunately that monster’s  been slain.

Until now! I’m bringing it back, baby! One last time. Like a Barbara  Streisand comeback tour. Here are the 25 random things you didn’t know  about ListAfterList.com:

 
1. LAL is       slang for ListAfterList.com – not to be confused with the L.A.       Lakers or Indo-Iranian word meaning “red friend queen”
 
2. You       can follow LAL on Twitter and       get all the new lists dumped into your feed with all of Ashton Kutcher, William       Shatner and the REAL       Shaq’s updates

7. LAL       was fat in high school
 
8. LAL       now has over 16,000 lists
 
9. LAL       has been pooped on by a flying flamingo
 
10. LAL       now has over 2,000 listers who have created at least 1 list
 
11. LAL       was born on February 26, 2007 – sharing       birthdays with Michael Bolton, Levi Strauss, Johnny Cash and Marshall       Faulk and same day as the final       radio broadcast of Dragnet
 
12. LAL       has had over 2 million visitors since its birthday
 
13. LAL       has 6 toes
 
14. LAL has hundreds of lists across 29       different categories

16. The       most popular list of all-time on LAL is Famous       Celebrity XBOX Gamertags
 
17. LAL       once had a message       show up in its Alpha Bits cereal – it said “Ooooooo”
 
18. The       sports category is the most popular category, followed closely by movies       and personalities
 
19. “Worst”       is the most popular search term on LAL
 
20. LAL       cried at the end of the “Rudy”       when he finally runs out onto the field
 
21. If LAL       were on death row and had to choose one final meal to eat, it would       definitely be Chipotle
 
22. LAL       has become THE place to create and share “bucket lists” with the rest of       the world

24. On LAL       you can edit, re-order and add to any wiki list someone else has created
 
25. LAL is       being a complete hypocrite

Hey Listers,

With every New Year come new resolutions. Some people resolve to quit smoking, some to lose weight, some resolve to get out debt – some people just resolve to follow through with previous resolutions. Even with generic resolutions like these, a whopping 85 percent of people fail to succeed.

The problem lies in the longevity of the resolution. Quitting an addiction cold-turkey is nearly impossible. Losing weight is a difficult task to begin with. To accomplish it, then keep it off for 12 months, is even harder. And getting out of debt is a task our country’s leaders can’t even tackle. So what makes you think every January you will be able to jump head first into solutions for these problems?

What you should be doing is making bucket lists. A bucket list is a resolution for life. It’s not something you need to accomplish tomorrow. It’s not something you need to even start tomorrow. A bucket list is a list of lifelong goals, goals to complete before you “kick the bucket.” Don’t consider it a “wish list,” you need the mindset that this is a list of things you WILL accomplish before you die, not thing you just WANT to accomplish.

It’s just like a to-do list. You shouldn’t make your daily to-do list full of just the most difficult tasks. Instead of just writing “run 3 miles” or “finish project” or “clean the house” – add some simple tasks like “brush your teeth” and “eat breakfast” and “put on some clothes”. These tasks will allow you to cross things off, and give you a sense of accomplishment as you progress through your day. Instead of staring at those substantial tasks and procrastinating as long as possible, you will jump right in and start check-marking boxes.

Don’t make your bucket list full of things you’d hate to do but know you should. A don’t make a list of completely impossible tasks, aka resolutions. You can have some aspirational goals, like make a million dollars, kiss Keira Knightley, or drive a flying car – knowing they may be unreachable, they may still help you strive to reach other “un-listed” things.

Season's Greetings Listers,

Wrap all your gifts yet? Well don't rush! How you wrap a gift says a lot about who you are. And how you open it says even more.

Think about the cheapies whose gifts are wrapped in last Sunday's sports page. And the lazies thrown in a plastic bag with the grocery receipt still stuck inside. Think about the hectic gifters with too much paper and the last green-tagged piece of Scotch tape. Compare those wrappers to OCD-gifters, with perfectly creased parallel lines, symmetrical bows, curled ribbons, and snowman nametags written in loopy cursive.

Now think about those "kids" who tear through their gift then race to the next. Directly contrasting the patiently-waitings, who keep to themselves until each gift has been handed out, sincerely savoring each and every present, opening not only the bag or wrapping, but also the manufacturer packaging, reading the card verbatim, and actually using the gift before moving on. And then there are the OCD-unwrappers making sure not to tear the paper, saving it for re-gifting next year.

First impressions are everything. And a first impression is hard to change. But it's not impossible! Anything can sway someone's initial opinion, but not just your iPod playlist, your favorite movie, the clothes you wear, the house you keep, the team you cheer for, or the job you work; the quirky little things matter too.

Consider an order at Subway, or Chipotle, or even a pizza, and the volumes that speaks to others about who you are. Ham and provolone on white with mustard, lettuce tomato is simple and plain. Spicy Italian is care-free. Specialty sammies are for the adventurous. And how about the vegetarian Chipotle burrito with no beans or sour cream? Or the vast differences in people who get plain cheese pizzas versus supreme?

I've heard bartenders and waitresses say they can predict what certain people will order. Every stereotypical person orders a stereotypical drink. Cheap people drink Mt. Dew and Long Island Iced Teas. Classy and mature people order martinis (hence Bond's shaken-not-stirred). A beer for the blue-collared and wine for the house-wife.

Every order says something. Every action delivers a reaction. Every moment can have a lasting impression.

This holiday season, pay attention as friends and family are opening their gifts, not just at the wrap-job, but the gifts inside and reactions whilst opening. And the lesson learned? Don't jump to assumptions because that just make an… well you know. Wait to make "donkeys" until you take them out for pizza and a drink.

Hey Listers,

"They say money can't buy happiness? Look at the f***ing  smile on my face. Ear to ear, baby."

Great  quote. Great  movie. It may not ring true for all you listers, but certainly strikes a  cord with me. You see, I have this uncanny ability to spend money. Sounds  terrible I know. It is. It's as if the pocket of my jeans were actually on fire  and Best  Buy sold the only extinguisher in town.

For anyone like me, this smoldering "burden" makes  Thanksgiving more like Black Friday Eve. Forget the corn and yams, I'll devour  as much tryptophanic  turkey as I can, because the faster I unbuckle my belt, the faster I plop  on that couch, the faster I fall asleep, and the faster the 5  a.m. early bird specials come around. I cannot wait! I'll admit, one my pet  peeves is standing  in line (due to an ADHD-induced lack of patience). Not to mention my  displeasure with the frigid Midwest November  weather. But the sales make all the miseries worth the wintry wait.

I am pretty sure Black  Friday grew from people's tendencies to start their Christmas shopping for  friends and loved ones the day after Thanksgiving. And believe me, until Black  Friday is marked as an official  holiday in America, I will be using my float days to pretend it is (btw,  Barack, if you're listening maybe you should consider my plea as a part of your  fiscal rescue plan for your inaugural year in the Oval  Office).

For me Black Friday as good as it gets. Forget Christmas and  birthdays when you get presents you don't want and never asked for: the  multi-colored plaid shirts, re-gifted label-makers, and holiday gift baskets with 6 types of cheese and chocolate  that come February turn to so moldy your  chocolate lab won't even steal off your kitchen counter. My Black Friday shopping  carts are selfishly stuffed with toys for me. It's awful really. I am not a  selfish person – just a victim of marketing.

Take my downfalls as a lesson of the misguided and ill-mannered.  The holiday season is not about toys.  It's not about gifts and getting. It's about giving. And it doesn't even have  to be the gift of material things – give love and happiness and help. Lend a hand to those in need and enjoy your time with family and friends.  But also remember:

"Anybody who tells you money is the root of all evil doesn't f***ing have any."

Hey Listers,

Worried?   I am sure you are. There is a lot to be  worried about these days. And everybody is worried about something sometimes  (not to be confused with Dino's "Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime"… though just  as true). But even the smooth talking, care-free Rat  Pack had their worries. Like when Frank Sinatra Jr. was kidnapped. Imagine  how nerve-racking that would be! Us normal folks have more common things to  worry about.

First and foremost on everyone's mind is this fiscal pit we've  fallen into. The DOW  continues to drop. Huge  firms are flopping. Banks  are bankrupt. And you are worried about your money, your future, your  children's future, and your children's children's future. Who wouldn't be?

Then there is the Presidential election. Who are you going  to vote for? Will he fix our problems? Can he put an end to our worrying? And then even if he says he can, will he?

And don't forget about the simpler uncertainties in life. What  to wear tomorrow? What to eat  for dinner? How  will this presentation go? And how far below that red line can the fuel  gage go before you have to fill  up on $4-gas?

So many questions,  so few answers.

"Today is the tomorrow I was so worried about  yesterday." It's so true, yet, makes absolutely  no sense if you think about it.

What's all this worrying for? What's it mean? That you have  to hold off on that 60-inch  plasma to hang on the wall, or that roomy  new black-leather Gucci handbag. That you can't lay a gas-hogging footslam  on the accelerator when the light turns green. And that you can't go to Sin City  for a Sammy-Davis-style New Year's bash.

Now I'm not going to pretend I'm Nietzsche or anything, but does any of this truly matter? You need to have "the  ability to let that which truly doesn't matter slide" because "everything  will work out – it always does."

The truth of the matter is this: there is always plenty to  worry about, always; and worrying never makes anything better – it doesn't  solve problems and doesn't make issues go away. So instead of wasting away  worrying about things – especially things that truly do not matter – why not  take a break from your worries, smile and take a deep breath. Because just as  it reads on Sinatra's tombstone: "The  Best Is Yet To Come."

Hey  Listers,
  It's been a while. Hope you are still listing! Sure looks like you  are. LAL has over  14,500 lists now! A lot has happened since I wrote you last:

 The new Indiana  Jones premiered and bombed. Well critically bombed at  least; box-office numbers did okay despite the horrid reviews and me walking  out of the theater half-way through; did you know you can't get refunds for movies utterly  sucking ?

Seems like Harrison  Ford has been around longer than sliced  bread doesn't it? Ford's first role as a bellhop in "Dead Heat  on a Merry-Go-Round ," was the same year  the Beatles' John Lennon  made the comment in an interview published in The London Evening Standard, "We're  more popular than Jesus now." Speaking of more popular than Jesus, did you know  Ford had roles in many of biggest  box-office hits of all time , though his role in E.T. the  Extra-Terrestrial (as Elliot's school principal) was deleted from the final cut  of the film. It's shocking that he is only 75 on the list of Top 100  Actors and Actresses with the Most Movie and TV Appearances . 

Other debuts include new iPhone 3G. It  still sucks!

Big Brown made his bid at the Triple  Crown of horse racing only to come up short in the final leg . No pun  intended. But speaking of slipping up:

Sarah Palin tripped  and fell bum -backwards  into the Republican VP seat, political spotlight and harsh media  criticisms (Caution:  Alaskan ice slippery when wet).

As the Presidential election gets closer, more and more celebrities  are choosing sides of the aisle. Hollywood  is known to be left-leaning , but there are some celebs openly  backing McCain as well on the other side of  the aisle.

And how about Michael Phelps?! Not his political views; and actually  NOT the 8 gold medals either, because that's nothing compared to his daily food  intake. 12,000  calories! Do you know what that is equal to? Have you  ever tried to eat two Chipotle burritos? I have and I cannot even imagine ten! I  have a better chance at London gold in the  200-free.

…Anyway, I hope you keep  listing , adding to  those wiki lists , and continually checking back  with ListAfterList as it  becomes the biggest  thing since powdered milk . Or is it "biggest since  sliced bread" and "longer than powdered milk"? Powdered milk was first spotted  by Marco Polo in Mongolia  in 1275; that's not that long is it? Or very big? Wait, what does powdered milk  have to do with anything?

Nevermind that, here is one final, actually important question: What are  the options you have if your boss's toupee falls on the floor?

Not-so-recent college graduates are demanding more career assistance from their former schools as they face tougher employment markets.

http://www.mbafocus.com/news/FortuneInterview.pdf

What are top employers looking for in a candidate? Here are the answers to get you a 6-figure paycheck from a Fortune 500 company.

Have you ever read Faulkner's The   Sound and the Fury? How about Kerouac's On the Road? If so, then you understand the random thoughts of stream   of consciousness. If not, let me have the honor of presenting you your   first experience – in a milder, easier-to-read format. These are my ten   random thoughts:

Do you think the most successful people in the world – the Forbes   500 CEOs, the two-time   Academy Award winners, the   Olympic gold athletes, etc. etc. – are also the world's morning   people, those who love the sound of the alarm, or even wake up before it   buzzes, those who wake up, cook breakfast, drink coffee and workout before the   golden sun rises?

Try and describe a golden sunrise without using a color – you can't,   its impossible - you can't describe a color without using another color or   using an object that is a color, green   is green,   or green is yellow and blue, or green is a tree, but green is not anything   else.

Green, the color of money, the color of greed, cheating greedy   Forbes 500 CEOs. "Once a cheater always a cheater?" And does cheating   on one thing mean he or she will cheat   on anything? Does competition breed cheaters, or does a lack of willpower   breed cheating, an addiction to cheating?

Don't you wish what you knew now you knew in high   school? There is so much more to the world and to the people in this   world than you ever managed when being "cool"   was the only thing that mattered – but maybe its better being blind, high   school was so much easier?

Easy isn't always the best, in fact, the hardest path is usually the   best direction to head, but do you think the world's leaders know this, I mean, they've heard the   clichés before I'm sure, but do they really understand it? And do you? Don't   you think unless we become a part of some global empire, on a hippie-ish   peaceful earth, nuclear   weapons will be fired; there will be a nuclear holocaust? It seems   inevitable. Won't the world's leaders will do "whatever it takes?" Don't be   blind to the tasteless greed.

What if the only thing you could drink was milk, water, and the   alcohol brewed in a bathtub? How miserable would that have been   back-in-the-day? Imagine no soda   pop, no Ocean-Spray, no Starbucks, no Budweiser.   What would you drink with dinner? What would you drink at work?

Work,   work, work. What a negative connotation that word has now. A career is   something different from work; "career" has a positive feeling, a positive   reception from the ears of the opposite sex. But work is something you dread   late on weeknights, have to wake up for in the morning, and can't wait for   Friday because of.

Friday's almost here! Maybe I will go see Jessica   Alba in "The Eye" – then again, maybe I won't, it seems like Hollywood's new horror   flick formula is to put a hot actress, a scary little kid with long hair, and   some flashes of white faces in the dark, and the movie will be scary.   Besides, I saw "Rambo" last Friday and "Lions   for Lambs" on Tuesday at the dollar theater, no real urge to dish out   real box office prices again so soon. "Rambo" amazing, gory, action-packed,   and Sly is a more believable John then you can imagine, thank the HGH   fountain of youth. Anyone responsible for the making of "Lions for Lambs"   might as well sport a donkey pin on their chest and picket the streets with   anti-Bush signs.

There is basically a 50% chance a woman   or African-American   will be the next President of the United States. Bet those people   who used to drink alcoholic bathtub concoctions never thought that would   happen.

Just like the '72   Dolphins probably thought their undefeated-season record would stand   forever. My apologies for another cliché but, "records are made to broken,"   and no one understands this as well as the Patriots   QB Tom Brady. Do you think he is morning person?
