Two halves don't make a whole.  2 halves plus 8 + national publicity + money don't make a whole.

Guys need to use this as an example of how not to be.  If you're going into the relationship a pussy, you're going to make yourself and your partner very miserable.  Trying to build an army of clone kids in a lab isn't something that healthy, fulfilled people do.  If your woman comes at you with these types of crazy demands or ideas, the only right answer is to Jack Bauer up and put your foot down.

And guess what? You'd better start exercising that foot before you get into a relationship.  If you're not a self-driven, whole man who knows himself, any relationship you get into will end awfully.

Nobody sets off fireworks in the middle of February. Nobody makes promises to themselves to improve their lives in June.  Nobody sits down to tally up their wins or losses in September.  Why don't we?

Who decided that it is appropriate to recognize every 365.25 days as milestones?  It seems a little silly since none of us know where we will be on day 365.  Life is short and I don't want to wait. 

Why not re-evaluate our lives on a daily basis?  Why not celebrate every 24 hours?  Why not look to tomorrow (literally) with anticipation and excitement?  I can't think of a reason not to.
