How old were you when you stopped running everywhere you were excited to go? And there's two reasons we remember something - because we tell our mind to please remember it, or because our mind decides to remember it all on its own.

I recently received an email from a girl asking me for help breaking up with her boyfriend. I made this video as a tool for her, and anyone in a similar situation. ;)

Happy 1st day of July! July might be my favorite month of the year, partially because of how much I love Independence Day.

Normal guys can seem anything but normal when they are on a mission to meet a girl. Here's why you might seem creepy.

I can't stack my fingers, but I recently chewed gum while walking. Sadly, my video cam was out of juice, so I didn't get to record this milestone...

My fingers are double jointed apparently - I can stack all four on each other (thumb on bottom) tip-to-first-knuckle with a quarter-shaped hole between each finger. I've never met another person who could do this, but alas, it is one of those "creepy" talents that does not impress women Wink

That's ghastly! ANY woman should be impressed by that. Maybe not favorably, but...

Well, except for short stints contrary to the advice of my orthopaedic surgeon, my running days ended 323 days ago. Still no word of sympathy from Lady Brigitte. Maybe she thinks it will stunt her memory to say a kind word...

Frankly, I think she could stimulate her brain by exercising her hands over the keyboard, saying, "Gee, Jim, sorry you nearly ripped your foot off your leg at camp last year. Good luck at camp THIS year, dude!"

This endless effort of yours to browbeat Brigitte into acknowledging your chosen role as victim is wearing very thin. It's been going on for nearly a year now, and it's creepy. It creates an unpleasant atmosphere around an otherwise upbeat and enjoyable video blog. i will sway I'm proud of brigitte for not allowing herself to be bullied. For your own good, too, please stop.

How very unfortunate for you that you're so creeped out by my day counting exercise. Brigitte, for her part, has never complained either publicly or privately to me about it (and she has my email). Furthermore, no one was creeped out when Brigitte did a day counting exercise for the Hollywood writer's strike, marking up her progressively rotting pumpkin.

Frankly, you've misinterpreted my motivation. I wear an easy-going smile when I post anything (even now, with you). I've been in an upbeat and humorous attitude during the whole thing, which is a fact that's apparently lost on you. Moreover, I'm quite sure that Brigitte scarcely pays attention to my antics, which aren't nearly as colorful as Patrick's were from days gone by.

Rather than trying to exert control over a fellow commentor (which IMHO is a useless exercise) my recommendation to YOU, Wind, is that you do what Brigitte does... Just ignore my posts. I'm sure it will do wonders for your emotional peace of mind.

This whole thing really is unpleasant for everybody. Not only that but this is someone's job, her livelihood. I know if I owned a business and there was a guy walking around every single day, obsessively weirding out my patrons, I would certainly want him to stop and, unlike Brigitte thus far, I would probably take concrete actions to make them stop.

I'm sure you mean well but whatever it is you are trying to accomplish is not working, and most likely is having the opposite effect.

Y'all are emoting too much. Brigitte can take the chain jerking; I'm surprised that you guys can't! In my estimation, notwithstanding her obvious feminine beauty, she's "taking it like a man" more than y'all combined! (...and I mean that as a compliment to you, Brigitte!)

Y'all should just think of Letterman's "Great Moments in Presidential Speeches"... another example of adnausium humor. Brigitte seems to get the gag. Just roll your eyes to the ceiling when you read my posts!

I just tried it and I can stack my fingers on top of each other if I start with the pinky on the bottom. Does that count or am I cheating? Does cheating stimulate the brain?

Let's not forget "The Man with Two Brains" starring Steve Martin. Wasn't that a documentary? Wink I'll bet he could stack his fingers *and* his toes!
