What a difference a tan makes!!

I am currently working on a website for a friend that owns a sunless tanning company (coming very soon) and decided to help her by posing for a couple before and after photos. My was I shocked to see the difference. (See my photos below.) I have never been one to worry about getting and keeping a tan. Being from Michigan, we tan in summer and whiten in winter--that's just the way it is. Now that I am older, I rarely get tan. (Although while I was working in the golf business, a farmers tan was usually the norm.)


But when she sprayed that stuff on, and I looked in the mirror, I could not believe the difference. I looked like a mythological God; a greek warrior like Achilles or Adonis. I don't think I will ever spend a day without a tan again. I plan on scheduling appointments at least every five days to keep this beautiful glow all the time. Best of all, it is completely safe and free from toxins. No skin cancer worries, no sitting in the hot sun for 3 days to get tan. This is the best thing I have ever found. I will post a link to the website as soon as it is up, but I can highly recommend sunless tanning to all who want to change their lives.


Be well.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE!

STANLEY TIME!!

Well i couldn't be happier this morning. The Wings proved once again that they can win no matter what the NHL does to prevent it.

Last night they finished off the Penguins in Pittsburg to win their 11th Stanley Cup overall, and their 4th in 11 years.

What makes it so great is that this is a team that was scouted and put together by Jim Nill and Ken Holland, finding players late in drafts that no one knows about. Detroit's top line consists of Pavel Datsyuk (Drafted 176th overall in 99), Tomas Holmstrom (Drafted 256th), and Henrik Zetterberg (Drafted 221st) who incidentally won the Conn Smythe trophy as the MVP of the NHL Playoffs. Even Nick Lidstrom, arguably the greatest defenseman in the history of the NHL, was picked 51st overall in 1990. They were matched against the Penguins who feature Sidney Crosby (1st pick), Marc Andre Fluery (1st pick), and Yvgeny Malkin (2nd pick).

To put it in perspective, you have to consider that most other sports have 6-10 rounds, and anyone that is picked after about round 4 has a very slim chance of not only having a career, but even making the teams. But the Wings have always seemed ahead of the times, being the first to scout in Eastern Europe, Sweden, Finland, etc.

All I know is that I love this team, I love Mike Babcock (coach), and I want another Stanley Cup next year! Oh, and since I vowed to get a Wing Wheel tattoo if they won, if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Be well.
