Who is better? Shawn Michaels or Undertaker

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Disclaimer

Please do not post comments pointing out that wrestling is fake. I’m aware of this. The fact is I find WWE entertaining. I grew up watching it and talking about it with my friends. It’s now 10-15 years later and I find myself doing the same thing. Simply put, it is fun.

Background

This March, Shawn Michaels and the Undertaker will once again face each other at Wrestlemania.  If Shawn Michaels wins, the Undertaker loses his undefeated Wrestlemania record.  If the Undertaker wins, Shawn Michaels must retire.  The story is as follows.

The Debate

Between my friends, the Wrestlemania 26 rematch is going to be a contentious affair.  About half of my friends will be rooting for the Undertaker, while the other half will be rooting for Shawn Michaels.

I fall firmly into the Shawn Michaels camp.  Nothing against the Undertaker, but Shawn Michaels is my favorite wrestler of all time.  Not only that, but I think he’s the best WWE wrestler of all time.  The Undertaker might have the streak and more titles, but Shawn Michaels puts on the best show and I’m going to prove it.

How to Dance at a Wedding

Monday, February 15th, 2010

First, a disclaimer.  I am not claiming to be good at dancing.  In fact, the opposite is true.  If you consider yourself a skilled dancer, move on and ignore this post.  If you are bad at dancing or hesitant to dance in public, this post is written specifically for you.
Wedding Dancing

Growing up, I hated dancing.  I wasn’t confident enough to go out on the floor to dance, so I’d just hang back.  If I was at a wedding, I’d spend the entire time at my table.  An easy answer for this is I was often alone and nervous.  Still, people would ask me to dance and I would always say no.  Luckily, I moved on from this phase once I was finished with college.

Weddings are infinitely more fun if you are dancing

I’m glad I decided to dance at weddings because every year since college graduation I’ve gone to two to three weddings and had a blast at them.  Generally, you’ll see me out on the dance floor until the wedding reception ends.  Some people argue that wedding receptions are fun because you get to catch up with your friends.  I agree with that, but save that for the dinner portion of a reception.  After the bridal party dances, get out on the dance floor.
