With Open Eyes

Don't let the fear of your past affect the presence of ur future, live life for what tomorrow has to bring not what yesterday has taken away

Love is not to forget but to forgive. Not to see but to understand. Not to hear but to listen. Not to let go but to hold on....

You are always learning and always teaching. Everyone is an equal teacher, and equal learner. It makes you an equal sharer

The happiness of your life,depends on the quality of your thoughts....

A true relationship is when you can tell each other about anything and everything. No secrets, no lies and no excuses.....

Don't look back and ask why. Look ahead and say why not.....

The definition of abundance is the ability to do. What you need to do. When you need to do it. Did I talk about money?


No matter how 'busy' a persons day might be. If they 'really care', they'll always find time for you....

Don't let the fear of your past affect the presence of ur future, live life for what tomorrow has to bring not what yesterday has taken away

Being happy doesnt mean everythings perfect, just means your willing to look through lifes imperfections....


This is your life..... And if your life is the remote. Then you have got to own the control......

Sexiest Men's Cologne For 2012

A must have Cologne for any time, any situation and any and every Occasion and one of my favorites is "Sexual" by Michel Germain.... The entire Collection is Unique and is Sexy in its own right. But "Night" & The Original are Great!!

"This one actually smells damn good because this one is pure Sex!!"

A Few other of my personal favorites are:

"Unforgivable" by Sean John

"Blvgari" The Original

"Cartier" Eu De Cartier

"Artisan" By John Varvatos

"Marc Jacobs" The Original

"Chanel" Allure Sport & "Hana Mori"

These are a List of My Personal Favorites & The Fragrances that are always in My Collection.... These are to me the Sexiest and most elegant fragrances for Man...


What you have is an exceedingly fresh lineup of complex blends that reestablish cologne as an essential grooming accessory for men. From the office to date night, here are the right men's colognes for 2012, no matter the occasion.

at the office
F by Ferragamo
$55, buy it here
Ignore the company shtick about this being an evening scent, because the pepper and lavender are better suited for the office. The Tonka bean is not so much a full-time ingredient but a session player that brings the right amount of Italian sprezzatura.


Kenzo Homme Woody
$55, buy it here
Beginning at just $55, this men's cologne for 2012 is a steal for what you get from the complex wood tones and vetiver. The upper notes of mint and basil may seem conflicting, but they counterbalance the lasting wood tones over longer days. This blend is evocative of other Kenzo colognes, which create a natural harmony, but is a modern take on bridging the urban and the natural.

Jack Black ‘JB’
$70, buy it here
Finally, Jack Black gets into the cologne game with a real contender, and at $70 'JB' is not messing around. This men's cologne gives you a fresh London barbershop aroma without the cheap afterglow. JB is the right scent if you work in a traditional office with double-vented suits, wingtips and catered lunches of Dover sole but has the right amount of individuality that you won’t blend in all together.



RELATED VIDEO: Are You Putting Too Much Cologne On?Date Night
Gucci Guilty Intense
$62, buy it here
After we spoke to Chris Evans, the face of Gucci Guilty Intense, we learned a lot more about this new fragrance. Lemon and lavender quickly give way to the stronger and, yup, we'll say it, “intense” balance of coriander, neroli, patchouli, and cedar. She won’t know what hit her. The bottle alone is worth leaving out especially if your bedroom has that Dante’s Inferno carnal sin motif. Best of all is the out-front honesty Gucci Guilty Intense embodies. It doesn’t pretend to be any other type of cologne than a date-night scent.

Narciso Rodriguez Limited Edition
$60, buy it here
Musk forms the top, middle and bottom notes of this cologne. Your intentions will be clear when you splash this on, yet there is really no other reason to wear a cologne consisting of musk alone. Thank goodness this one actually smells damn good because this one is pure sex.



Ferragamo / Bond NYC / Ben Sherman / Jo Malone / AskMen

"It'll do for you what Pippa's dress did for her ass."
<< Previous Page

Bond No. 9 New York Andy Warhol
$180, buy it here
It might be commercial and kitsch, but it packs a punch. The bottom notes of musk, vanilla bean and sandalwood create an unbreakable platform for the white patchouli, jasmine and citrus to hold up the final top notes of bergamot and cypress leaves. How this is evocative of Andy Warhol is not clear, but it is one of the more complex and mercurial colognes this year.

Formal Event
Cartier Declaration
$135, buy it here
Sophisticated French elegance in a bottle is your first thought when you open Declaration. Cardamom and warm cedar highlight this modern scent that harkens back to the Belle Epoque era. Like a well-cut tuxedo, Cartier Declaration is sure to make you better-looking. Apply this one sparingly.

Jo Malone Oud & Bergamot
$135, buy it here
The name alone tells you that you’ll get plenty of bergamot along with cedar and woodsy floral tones that are surprisingly masculine. If your pal asks you to stand with him as his best man, then wear this cologne. It’ll do for you what Pippa’s dress did for her ass, and you’ll go home with a stack of phone numbers and a few stories to tell.

Casual Sport
Ben Sherman
$55, buy it here
Unbelievably crisp and downright zesty is the only way to describe this sport scent. OK, so maybe you don’t wear cologne to the gym, but you should. Coffee, hay (yes, hay), vetiver, and musk prop up the middle notes of nutmeg and patchouli while lemon, tangerine and bergamot glide over the top.

Victorinox Swiss Army Unlimited
$78, buy it here
OK, so it also makes pocket knives, watches and apparel, but this is not the typical cologne to accompany a lifestyle company. Someone actually thought about how a Swiss Army knife cologne should smell. Alpine fir trees provide the requisite wood notes while absinthe and genepi liquor add the necessary machismo we all think is part of the Swiss Army prerogative.

A Resolution




"Most resolutions, especially dating resolutions, are unrealistic because you're not looking at the core of what you need to work on."

Well, the clock has finally turned. It's 2012. Can you believe it? We're now in the teens of the new millennium, the roaring tens, whatever you want to call it.

And at the beginning of every year, you're resolution-based. That's what we do. You utter a ton of drunken resolutions on New Year's Eve to your buddies, saying, "This year is going to be the best year! This year I'm going to get laid more! This year I'm going to work harder! This year I'm going to make more money! This year I'm going to meet more women! This is the year I'm going to meet somebody special!"

You play the game of "this year": "This year it's going to happen," and This year I can finally become the man I've always wanted to be!"

Here's the question: When it comes down to dating, are these resolutions realistic? Let's look at the reality of your life. Let's take a look back to last year, when the clock struck 2011.

What were your resolutions like? Did you play a lot of "this year"? Did you promise yourself that you would pursue more women? Did you promise yourself that you would be more outgoing? Did you promise yourself you would approach women and ask them out more often? Did you promise yourself all of these things, including working out, making more money and eating healthier?

Were you able to make good on any of your resolutions? Forget about just the dating resolution -- were you able to make good on any resolutions at all? Most people get overwhelmed because theirs are just unrealistic.

For instance, you're a guy who doesn't get a lot of dates. So all of a sudden on New Year's, your resolution is to have one date per week. Last year you went on three dates. Are you realistically going to increase from 3 to 52? You don't even look at the percentages. Most resolutions, especially dating resolutions, are unrealistic because you're not looking at the core of what you need to work on. You're not looking at the reasons behind why you're not meeting women and getting the dates. And all you're doing is trying to fill yourself up with hot air and hoopla.

Look, positive self-talk is fantastic. It's empowering. But, unfortunately, a lot of times it's just not realistic. Most people don't understand the small steps that are necessary to get these goals accomplished. If you want to go out there and date 40 new women this year, or you want to get a girlfriend this year, you've got to find a way to go out there and actually meet women every single day. They just won't magically appear. If you're not great at conversation, if you're not great at talking to women, nothing is magically going to change for you.

So, if you're serious about making these resolutions come to life, you need to take a look at what your dating resolution is, and then you need to figure out what steps you are going to take in order to get there........

Just Keep It Natural

Keep It Natural

Getting a number close is a great accomplishment. As we’ve seen, though, it’s no guarantee of an actual date—and certainly no guarantee that you’ll see action later. Things aren’t entirely out of your hands, however; how you conduct yourself in the follow-up will in large part determine a girl’s response.

Let’s look at some of the options you have for communicating during follow-up—and the advantages and dangers of each.
Text Game
Questions about texting a girl come up time and time again when I’m training guys. I used to be the worst possible texter, with most of my numbers flaking. Now my text game is very solid; it doesn’t ever let me down. Text game is actually pretty simple, and if you follow my rules for texting you should notice a big difference right away. If you don’t want that prized number to turn into a flake, pay attention:

✓✓ Use only one question mark per message.
✓✓ Your messages, unless scripted, should be shorter than hers.
✓✓ Use a “fire-and-forget” strategy—send the message, put the phone down, and go do something else.
✓✓ If she texts you back, take your time before responding. Don’t rush right over to the phone. Take at least as long to reply as she did.
✓✓ When you write a message, leave it as a draft for ten minutes; then go back and read it again—and make sure it’s not embarrassing!
✓✓ If she asks a question (like “How’s it going?”) to which you can give only a boring response—don’t answer it.
✓✓ If she asks multiple questions, don’t answer them all.
✓✓ The best time to send a text message is when you’re busy or on your way somewhere. It shouldn’t look like you spent too long thinking about what to say. It should look like you finally got around to it and are answering nonchalantly.
✓✓ Don’t use xoxo’s or smiley faces . . . ever! Even if she does.
✓✓ Never send two texts in a row within forty-eight hours without a response.
✓✓ If she doesn’t reply, wait at least five days before trying again.
✓✓ Don’t try to arrange the date on the first text; this is usually instant death!!!

Phone Game
Some guys prefer getting on the phone. My friend and longtime wingman Anthony P. is one of those. But it’s a lot tougher to talk to someone when you aren’t face-to-face, so when you get her number, it needs to be as solid as possible. If you call after a number close and she answers enthusiastically—it’s on. With a couple of minutes’ chat, you can probably set up a date pretty easily. If you call and she’s a bit cold or noncommittal—“Who? Oh yeah . . . I remember. . . umm . . . hi”—try to be as interesting as possible......

"What These Ladies Want From You"

Tell Me What They Want?

Here With Me



In My Eyes. I want you to always be right here with me. Nothing in this world means more to me than you do. You mean the world to me..... You are everything to me.

"Our Love"



Jazz of DrU Hill - "Our LoVe" from The Pretty Brown Eyes SoundTrack

Look for New Music & New Things Coming from Jazz as well as The Legendary R&B Group 'DrU Hill' in 2012 & The Future!! http://www.twitter.com/jazzdruhill

"I Don't Wanna Live WithOut You"

"I Don't Wanna Live WithOut You" [Jazz of DrU Hill]



A New Beginning. I dont wanna live without you, and I dont wanna be without you. Lets start this Lifetime, again and start right here and right now..... You are the love of my life. I could never truly love without you, cause its not the same as when i look into your eyes. You are my everything. My Heart. My Soul. My Life. My World. My Baby. I wanna spend the rest of my life with you......

Looking through Someone's Smile!!




Trust the one who can see these three things in you :
1 - Sorrow behind your smile.
2 - Love behind your anger.
3 - Reason behind your silence.

Love isn't only about feelings, it is about commitment and being there for the other person no matter what happens. It's putting them first before your own needs.... And always being there for them.

Learn From Your Mistakes

"Life, all along the path, is full of lessons, forgotten, taken, learned from, or repeated. But any Road that you end up taking, is the guide to where you are going to end up, and where your future will lie...... Learn from your mistakes!!"

~~ Joe "J Rag" Rago

Our actions of the past should not define who we are today. Our actions of today should help to define who we want to become. Learn from mistakes and move on!!

have the courage to make the change, the strength to see it through and keep the faith that it will turn out for the best......

"Never forget how to listen to each other, talk to each other, trust each other, most important love each other and hold each other down through good times and bad.... Never walk away or turn your back on someone that you love or someone that loves you!!"
~~ Joe "J Rag" Rago


Don't let people from your past hold your present hostage and control your future, allow yourself love, laughter and a life, if not,U lose love,laughter,life.
