National No Phone Zone Day


Enough is enough! Hitting someone or injuring yourself while driving and using your phone is 100% preventable. Keep your eyes off your phone and put them back on the road. It's that simple!
I'm so glad that Oprah has taken a stand on this. Close to 6,000 people died last year alone while talking or texting on their phone while driving. It's all unnecessary and preventable if we all take the same stand Oprah is taking and sign the pledge.
To sign the pledge go to www.oprah.com/nophonezone or you can text (not while driving) NPZ to 30644. Do it today! The life you save may be your own!

Daughtry

I was listening to Gayle King on Oprah Radio this morning, and yesterday she interviewed Chris Daughtry from the band Daughtry. I have such admiration for him and the band. Out of all the bands out there right now, Daughtry seems to be the most real and down to earth. It doesn't seem like the fame and fortune has gone too much to their heads. They were there to promote their new CD, "Leave This Town", which by the way is phenomenal.

When they played the following song, the hair stood straight UP on the back of my neck. The music, the lyrics, everything about it blows me away.
Acoustic version of "What About Now"



The video itself is so powerful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ylgchWR-Ig

Do One Nice Thing

Listening to the Gayle King show this morning, I heard about a lady named Debbie Tenzer, who has devoted her Monday's to Do One Nice Thing for someone. Debbie has also created a website, www.doonenicething.com which gives ideas on things you can do for people and be involved in the "nice" movement. On Debbie's website, there is a video called "Confessions of a Nice-o-Holic" and for every viewing of the video, money will be donated to the Feeding America Organization.
