See you January 16, 2010 for The Intense Individual Party! Don’t miss it! CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE INVITE! Happy New Year!

This was by far the most Intense wedding I have ever witnessed. Cookie Fields, the manager at the local Albertson’s married the love of her life, Jeff Howard — in Albertsons. The “Wedding March” could be heard on the PA system as one of the regular customers walked Cookie down aisle 10 toward her husband-to-be.

It was a true celebration that packed the grocery store. Everyone in the store crowded around the pineapples and oranges to watch Cookie and Jeff say their wedding vows.

Generously, Albertson’s provided the cake and tape recorded the wedding on their 24 hour surveillance cameras.

And wolf t-shirts.

It’s simple: Animals on Shirts are Intense.

Is it wrong that I secretly like to give blood because they offer you donuts and make you feel like “you have to eat them” to bring your blood sugar up?

She smiles a grin full of dentures as she watches you take that glazed donut dripping with melted sugar out the box and a glass of cold milk to wash it down. The proud look on her face says “it’s ok that you are about to go stuff your face with grease and sugar because you may have just saved a life!” Read More…

This is an amazing story! Shirley Madsen, a 90 year-old woman was stuck inside her bathtub for three days. The only thing that saved her was a rubber duck that she drank water out of. READ THIS STORY

As I pulled up to my house tonight I noticed there was a little orange piece of paper in between my screen on my door. From afar it looked like a UPS slip. For the 30 seconds between the time I parked, got out of the car, and walked up to my door I thought I had a parcel waiting for me at the North Park Postal Office. But no. It wasn’t a parcel. It was a fruit basket. A note that said “SORRY WE MISSED YOU!” Please call Mon-Sat before 8pm to schedule another delivery. Well, I felt like some fruit so I called right then.
