In my 31 years of life, I’ve come to realize a few things. Life can be hard and at times, make no sense. I felt like that when Prop 8 was passed in California last month. However, that being said, one thing I do know for sure… there’s nothing like a bit of comedy to teach people the truth about a hard topic. Bravo to Hollywood on this one.

PS – before you dismiss Jack Black as potentially being blashpemous, he’s not being whatsoever. He’s sarcastically showing you how some on the right “pick and choose” what the Bible teaches. Just think about it. Enjoy!

I’m sure millions of us watched, yet again, Tina Fey do a fantastic job mocking Sarah Palin last night on SNL. This is her (Tina’s) 3rd week in a row where she does a Palin appearance and I must admit, it gets better and better every single week.

The part I wanted to show you is the wonderful slam against Palin and her views on “the gays.” Wow, I love the zinger about “marriage should only be between two unwilling teenagers” (clearly mocking Palin’s own daughter who got pregnant at the age of 16 and is now being ‘forced’ to get married). Enjoy!

The video has been fixed (audio), so please enjoy and digg this if you liked it!

Forget Bootcamp and Parallels… it’s time to show you one of the coolest things I’ve learned and I need to give ALL the credit to Josh at Macgasm for this awesome tip! You can either watch my video below to show just how easy it is to create a “virtual box” (AKA a 2nd computer on your Mac) to run Windows XP or you can check out Macgasm’s step-by-step instructions on their blog here.

This is a FREE and pretty easy way to literally run a FULL VERSION Windows XP on your Macbook and you can literally switch between the two with one click of your Mighty Mouse! It’s truly amazing. I’m still in awe that few people only know about this!

I know this video is a bit longer than most, but trust me… just watch it and I promise you, you’ll be installing this ASAP. The only thing you need to do is have a Windows XP install disc (CD) and you’re ready to go!

Oh yeah, make sure you download Sun’s xVM Virtual Box here (it’s free!)

Many of you have asked me a time or two, “Jeff, how do you stay so moxie?” Well, friends… here’s just one small secret. Enjoy! (ps, yes, I was laughing the entire time I made this!)

For my first post for Bloggers Unite For Human Rights, I wanted to touch on a subject that is obviously near and dear to me. I get asked all the time by people from all races, religions and sexual orientations, “How can I help support equality for all people, including gays and lesbians?” Well I can’t think of a better way than being educated on where corporations in America stand for human rights and equality.  In other words, the dollars you spend with companies MATTERS.

As I said in the video above, here’s a link for a free copy of the Human Rights Campaign’s 2008 Buyer’s Guide For Equality. Each corporation is graded on a scale (green is the highest grade and red is the lowest grade) which gives you an insight on where they stand for human rights and equality in the workplace. It’s 2008 people… it’s time for ALL of us have to equality in this world. This isn’t a religious topic… this is about Human Rights!

Please take some time to download this free pdf file and start supporting those corporations that have been graded green! It’s time we show the world that we support companies who support equality and rights for every human being.
