Have a Positive Attitude!

In the past, I think we have all done things that we are not proud of. Whether they are words or actions, we have all hurt other people or ourselves by actions or by words. But, this morning, I was sitting and thought about something else that I think we all could do to improve our life.

Have a positive attitude!

I am going to make this a main priority. When I see someone getting down or saying that it is going to be a rough day or something like that. I am going to send them a message of encouragement. I want people to know that I care and I want everyone to be encouraged and uplifted. Plus, there are going to be times when I am down and out and depressed (which I am trying to cut down on too, with a positive attitude), and I'd want people to uplift me too.

So, short and sweet, just have a positive attitude. Things aren't going great, think of it this way, they are going to get better. You think you are going to have a bad day? You sure are, if you think that way. So, why not take a little time to have a brighter attitude on the day.

Predictions for 2012

Allow me to make some predictions for 2012. Later, I'll have some sports predictions on my sports blog. but for now we'll keep it to news, entertainment, things of that sort. Some of these are more hopes and they will be indicated by (hope) but others are legitimately things I think that may happen.

* Barack Obama will be re-elected as President of the United States. He will defeat Republican challenger, Mitt Romney, and no viable 3rd party will challenge, keeping the political system as stale as ever.

* Something will happen to unite democrats & republicans to end extreme partisanship (hope). I don't know what it will be, but some major players will break party lines on a vote on some bill.

* ABC will replace George Stephanopoulos with Josh Elliott as the co-host to Robin Roberts on Good Morning America. Stephanopoulos will resume duties of hosting "This Week". Dan Harris will move to Elliott's slot on GMA.

* Matt Lauer will leave the Today Show. His replacement will be

* Neil Patrick Harris will permanently be the co-host with Kelly Rippa, to call it "Live with Neil and Kelly"

* The world will not end in 2012.

* The United States will focus more on domestic issues and less on nation building in other countries (hope)

* Ryan Seacrest will leave American Idol. The show will be cancelled.

* 24.5 percent of people have dropped their landline phone service, that number will climb to 40 % by the end of 2012.

* "The Help" will win big at the Oscars.

Those are all I got. I am sure I could make a lot more. What are your predictions? Leave comments or e-mail me at TheSportsBuffet@gmail.com
