My friends just launched a new T-Shirt line, FLATCALL.

If you're a poker fan, a poker player or just enjoy a nice new trendy T-shirt here and there, check out their new line here: FLATCALL.


What is poker?
"Poker is everything. It's a roller coaster ride of emotions where you can go from top dog to broke in minutes. Where demographics are hardly a consideration, where you could turn a single paycheck into a whole lifetimes worth of earnings. Where the highs are limitless and the lows are never-ending." - FLATCALL

A Must Read: Heaven is for Real by Todd Burpo

A little boy's astounding story of this trip to heaven and back. (A true story)

"Heaven Is for Real is the true story of the four-year old son of a small town Nebraska pastor who during emergency surgery slips from consciousness and enters heaven. He survives and begins talking about being able to look down and see the doctor operating and his dad praying in the waiting room. The family didn't know what to believe but soon the evidence was clear.

Colton said he met his miscarried sister, whom no one had told him about, and his great grandfather who died 30 years before Colton was born, then shared impossible-to-know details about each. He describes the horse that only Jesus could ride, about how "reaaally big" God and his chair are, and how the Holy Spirit "shoots down power" from heaven to help us.

Told by the father, but often in Colton's own words, the disarmingly simple message is heaven is a real place, Jesus really loves children, and be ready, there is a coming last battle."


An incredible story.

David Cornfield Melanoma Fund ... Dear 16 Year Old Me

After seeing this post, I had to write a blog about it. I just returned from my younger brother's prom pictures and I can't tell you the number of girls that look like they've been roasting in tanning beds for the past month. I'll be the first one to admit it, I used to go tanning. For about 4 months during college, then I was broke. Not long after that, my dad developed early signs of skin cancer and was soon diagnosed with an early stage of it.

I just want to spread the word about melanoma awareness. Please do the same.

Imperfection is Beauty

These quotes were too long to tweet when #marilynmonroe was trending on Wednesday. But, in celebration of what would have been the icon's 85th birthday I put together a few of my favorites.

"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous that absolutely boring."

"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

"If you can make a girl laugh, you can make her do anything."

"It's better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you're not"

"You never know what life is like, until you have lived it."

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

"We should all start to live before we get too old. Fear is stupid. So are regrets."
