Since yesterday was November 12th, I thought I’d take the time to discuss with you the ultimate date for those who follow Eventualizm - The 12th of Never. While the expression (and song based on said expression) states that this date lasts forever, there are several facts that dispute this as outlined below:

Note: Mike was on ill for most of last week...having contracted the speech impedement known as laryngitis. This also, oddly enough, caused him to lose his ability to write.
With the invasion of Barack Obama in primetime last week, it brings up an eventual form of advertising that has yet to be fully explored here at the site: The Infomercial. We've all seen these long-winded forms of pseudo-entertainment, extolling the virtues of such products as juicing machines to the latest Chuck Norris offering, but unlike the traditional 30 second spot - these tend to stick with you in much the same way as a dog gnaws at a bone until it is either digested or thrown by the wayside.

On a recent trip to Las Vegas, I found myself anticipating one of the bastions of the gambling capital’s lore - the "all you can eat" buffet. Alas, I came across none in my short stay,leaving me forlorn. Forlorn or not, I felt obliged to find one as soon as I returned to my home and native land. I went to the first Chinese buffet I could find, and began the eventual process of eating diner. True enough, the buffet is an EffTDers dream when it comes to eating. You can take as long as you want to do it, and it is expected that you do.

There once was a great Hallow’s Eve That allowed some of us to achieve; Costuming heights While wearing tights; In an attempt to make us all believe.
But you're still not a real ninja - you're just Steve.

With the release of High School Musical 3 today, I think it’s timely that we discuss yet another important tool that you can use to further your EffTD training. While music unto itself is a great tool, it spawns several tools as well. Lessons, clubbing and “iPodding” are some of these. Watching music-based programming like MTV, MuchMusic and the like used to be considered as well, but they no longer play music videos as a major part of their programming. These channels had already succeeded in their missions of killing the careers of less TV-friendly faces like Christopher Cross and countless others (that I cannot remember as I can’t put faces ot the names), so there is really no need for them to continue doing what they did. Now they can just fill the void left by the absence of Robin Leach and show off celebrity homes (known as “cribs”) and leave music programming up to reality television.

I promised myself that I wouldn’t delve in too deep into the current economic “crisis” that is gripping the globe, but frankly, I can see there’s a lot of interest in the topic…and where there’s interest, there’s money to be had.
During this inconvenient situation, I’ve made note of several ideas that are being put out there that not only go against everything Eventualizm and EffTD stands for, but simply don’t make long-term sense. I’ve gathered three of these for your consideration:
