Forget a Tom Tom...you just need a Bill Bill

You don't need a GPS if you have Bill Amarosa with you. Bill is one of my friends who recently set the world record for riding the entire NYC Subway system on a single fare. He made the Guinness Book of World Records with a time of 24 hours, 54 minutes, 3 seconds.

I kid you not, if you are ever lost in NYC and need to get somewhere Bill can tell you the best route off the top of his head. I actually had to test his knowledge once when my wife called me lost in NYC.

I called Bill and had to ask how to get from where she was to the Bergen stop in Brooklyn. In two seconds he was able to give me the stops and trains that she needed to take. If you want to learn more about his World Record challenge click here.

For those that don't want to read more about Bill then feel free to enjoy the below video of a Midget Michael Jackson impersonator dancing at a Subway stop in NYC. Next time you're embarrassed to get up and dance at a wedding think of the balls this guy has to dance in front of everyone.

You can also click here to link to The Furthest Point blog to find out some of the challeges that Bill might have had to face along the way to setting his record.

This is a G...This is a D...This is a C

Little did I know that by showing my friend's younger brother these three chords on the guitar that some day he'd have a band that sells out shows, has over 4 CD's, and just created their first video.

The name of the band is Barefoot Truth.

Check out their first video above called Reelin'. Even if it's not your type of music send along to others that might like their music. I've linked their website as well which shows upcoming concert dates, etc.

If you have trouble linking their website is: http://www.barefoottruth.com/.

Important Links

In an effort to be a nice guy I figured I'd direct everyone to my Important Links (see links on the right of my blog). You can also click on the title headings to take you there.

26 Street Studio:

One of my friends has started a photography business. Check out some of the pictures of the Boston area, NYC, and Philly. Order something on line now...now...now.

The Flipp Side:

The same friend that started 26 Street Studio will take you on his personal journeys through life. You'll be able to tell quickly that he has a strange fetish for Mickey Mouse.

12 Bars of Christmas:

Most of you will probably see a picture of yourself. You won't remember having the picture taken but it should help you remember the great time that you had. Don't forget...1st Saturday of every year. See you Dec. 6th.

The Furthest Point:

A thought provoking blog started by my brother-in-law. If Brett Michael's were to describe his blog he'd use the words "awesome" and "totally rocks". That is how good this blog is. We're in a blog war for more hits so please only check this blog once a month.
