Specious Thinking About the SlapChop!

At one point during that annoyingly hilarious SlapChop ad, Vince states "... stop having a boring tuna, stop having a boring life!"  Later in that same scene he goes as far as to say "... now you can have an exciting life."  Well last February our neighbours gave us one of their SlapChops (you get two when you buy one!), so I thought I should maybe put these claims of life enhancing abilities of the SlapChop to the test!



So I guess it started last February.  Andrea and I were finally getting back to normal after the Christmas season.  Bills were paid, and life was good.  Our neighbor gives us a call one evening to inform us that she had just purchased the SlapChop from the TV.  Having laughed with them about the commercial for so long, this was actually exciting news.  Perhaps that's the best analogy of my life before SlapChop (or BSC, as I call it now).  Imagine, two grown adults excited about a new chopping device that the people next door bought!

After waiting the 5 business days, Andrea and I were both beside ourselves when our generous neighbors offered us one of their SlapChops!  Little did I realize the adventure that was about to unfold before me.

LIFE AFTER SLAP CHOP! (ASP)
In order to prevent a long-winded blog post, I will just list the magnificent events that have come from the last six months of SlapChop ownership.

1) I have been reconnected with an old friend.  Seriously!  I haven't seen Mike in a few years, and now he lives with me!!!  That alone has provided us with excitement!

2) I started a business!  Power Business Services (PBS) is up and running.  Sure it's a side business, but it's still a business.  With one regular customer and another with potential, the future of PBS is looking up.

3) We're pregnant!!!!  After a lot of trying it finally happened!

4) I now run two blogs with a third on the way!  Not only do I run the blogs, but I am currently setting up an interview with one of the organizers of the original Woodstock.  Stay tuned for that!

5) I have been reconnected with another old friend!  I haven't spoke with Jay for about four years, and now I am am trying to convince him to co-run one of my blogs!

6) I'm an uncle!!  That's right, on May 5, 2010 my beautiful niece Logan was born.

So as you can see, without a shadow of a doubt, the SlapChop has actually prevented me from living a boring life!

Thank you SlapChop, I can't imagine what would have happened if we actually tried using you for chopping stuff!
