Is Bo Jackson the Greatest Athlete To Ever Live Or Is He Overrated?
Before the hate mail comes in I’d first like to clarify that I greatly respect Bo Jackson and think he’s an incredible athlete. However, sometimes pure athleticism doesn’t directly translate on the field or in the stat sheet. I always enjoyed watching Jackson play and marveled at his strength and speed, but sometimes there’s more to becoming an all-around player at your sport.
Somewhere along the way Bo turned into a mythic hero, instead of simply a gifted athlete. ESPN went so far as to crown him with the Greatest Athlete of All Time award. Pretty surprising considering he only played 8 seasons in the MLB and 4 in the NFL.

Why Buying Back Your Time Can Be the Ultimate Investment
In an era dominated by the allure of the latest gadgets, fashion trends, and luxury cars, it’s easy to fall into the trap of believing that happiness can be purchased off a shelf or through the click of a button.
However, emerging research and personal testimonies suggest that the key to a more fulfilling life doesn’t lie in accumulating more possessions but rather in acquiring something far more valuable: time.

How Many Red Flags Can You Spot In This?
We’ve been together for 5 years. She’s gorgeous, loves me, I love her more than everything. Yesterday I found out that she is going out with a dude that tried to kiss her few months before we started dating.
[little backstory]
Dude is her “friend” that tried to kiss her before we started dating. No problem here. When she rejected him, he went back on dating others. Again, no problem.
Few weeks ago he broke up with his partner and immediately followed and DMed my girlfriend.
They chatted at nights, while she was in the bathroom, sometimes almost for hours. And every time she erased all of the chats with him.
[little backstory]
She said that it’s “friendly meet up” to her friends. She also asked them to lie to me, in case I am curious about where my girlfriend is.
I genuinely don’t know what to do. Any advice? Do I confront her right now? Do I confront while they are together? Why some men are such dicks? Why would they try to hit on an obviously taken girlfriend?
She’s 10/10 and I want to be with her till the rest of my life but I cannot emotionally afford to be in an unfaithful relationship. Help me please, it’s been eating me out from the inside.

15 Insiders Reveal Their Industry Secrets
1. I worked at a newspaper processing obituaries, and it was crazy how much funeral homes tried to rip people off.
Obits are expensive. Like, $400 for a single day expensive. And they are priced by the word. We had funeral homes who would send us obits with all the commas and periods separated to make full new words. The homes would get the estimate from our website and use that for billing the grieving family. We would edit the obit to meet English standards, which would reduce the word count substantially, dropping the price. In other words, they charged for the estimate but got billed for the edit.
