 Meditation is in vogue right now, where in years past The Buddhists were the only who ones who were doing it. As of this writing, the entire planet is meditating at one time or another. I can hear The Peanut Gallery now: "Get your facts right, Mike, you cannot make that claim without backing it up. Not everyone meditates." Hang on, folks - because I'm about to back that fact up.

 Music is wonderful. It soothes the soul. It can lift you up or bring you down. It has a real emotional power attached to it. And it’s the perfect way to EffTD™. For example, have you ever been driving along and a song you haven’t heard in years comes on just as you’re about to pull in the driveway? Of course - it’s a scientific fact that will happen to each person at least 11 times in their lifetime. You’re faced with a choice:

 This may come as a surprise to some of you, but I’m a big supporter of the Creative Commons licensing organization, or as I like to call them - “CC”. You see, CC seems to be a means of allowing creativity to flow without the stifling side effects of copyright (what I like to call “C”) protection on the surface. But it goes much deeper than that. CC sees itself as a means to promote the freedom to have others build upon others’ work. And I like that. Because it promotes another big key in the EffTD™ lifestyle, something I call The C Factor.

 This first week of EffingTheDog.com has been quite the eventful one. We averaged a higher number of hits than anticipated, forcing me to take some serious action to ensure your EffTD™ experience was as somewhat satisfactory as possible.
Just kidding. I gave a lot of the stuff to my cousin, Xerxes, to handle in a timely manner. I gave up on teaching him the ways of Effing The Dog™ long ago, as he is well past the point of no return.

 The productivity habits of Benjamin Franklin have been cited in recent articles on the Web, exposing "The 13 Virtues" he strived to achieve on a daily basis - living his life by them as much as humanly possible (which was slightly impossible due to him being a robot, but that's another story) and tracking them as such. That's fine - if you're a robot.
Chances are, most of you reading this are not robots. For those of you that are...no offense intended, but you may want to shut off your optic sensors for this particular lesson in following the EffTD™ formula. No peeking. Or clicking on "read more", as the case may be.

 We're almost a week into the life of EffingTheDog.com™, and I figure that if you've stuck with me to this point, you either have a virus on your computer that has made this your home page, or have started to embrace this philosophy to the point of doing nothing but checking the site for updates. Good on you! Since your devotion appears to be unwavering, I will get a bit more into the nuts and bolts behind EffTD™. After all, you've earned it. First and foremost, you're going to need to get yourself some of the essentials to get the job done on your own time:

 "Aw, jeez..." - former Boston Red Sox first basemen Bill Buckner when he let that ball get by him in that game that time. (paraphrased)One of the more important factors in grasping the Effing The Dog™ system is learning to let things go and not let the consequences rattle you. As cited above, Bill Buckner drew the ire of many hardball fans when he made this costly error. In fact, the taunting started when the guy who hit the ball mockingly pointed at him as he skipped along the base paths to victory.
