Mike Guy Finds Out http://www.bnpositive.com/blog/what-is-waterboarding-mike-guy-finds-out/ http://www.bnpositive.com/blog/what-is-waterboarding-mike-guy-finds-out/#comments Mon, 15 Mar 2010 14:40:39 +0000 bnpositive http://www.bnpositive.com/blog/what-is-waterboarding-mike-guy-finds-out/ There’s lots of discussion about the use of waterboarding to extract information from terrorists or other enemy combatants. Through all of the discussion, do you know what it is? What actually occurs when you’re being waterboarded?

Here’s a video I found in a post at Huffington Post about the controversial act. Mike Guy, a journalist for Playboy, decided to see for himself what all the hubbub was about. He guessed he could last 15 seconds without any problems.

"Invoking an existing fear". What do you think? I think I agree with the soldier, I’m not sure if it’s "torture", I’m sure it’s emotionally and mentally intense, but I agree that I think real "torture" involves physical wounds or pain.

Who’d have thought Playboy would deliver journalism like this, that no other major media outlet would have asked this question. At least not that I know of, do you?

qdoba-sound

I got an email recently from Qdoba letting me know I could now visit their website and download a free music file and learn more about "our sound" at their website. Honestly the "sound" of Qdoba is something I’d probably prefer not to hear about if you know what I mean.

To me it’s not too much different than Pizza Hut and their Wing Street brand. Pizza Hut , you’re really not doing pizza that well anymore, how about you just focus on improving that before you start also offering less than average buffalo wings too.

You’ve obviously had some great things to say and are a talented writer, but now you may not know where to do it.

Invest in yourself.

You should be able to request your past posts from b5media and get them as an WordPress export file that you can then use to setup your own WordPress site. Don’t know how to do that? Here’s my offer.

If you’d like to setup your own domain and setup WordPress but don’t know how, I’d like to help.

Just email me and let me know you’re interested. I’ll take care of the following for you:

  1. Register and setup your domain
  2. Setup web hosting
  3. Install WordPress on your domain
  4. Import your old b5 posts into your new site
  5. Help you install a template of your choice

Then you can get back to doing what you love. Writing and blogging.

I’ll take care of all of this for you for $100, which will pay for my time, the domain name and hosting for the first year. After that you’ll just need to pay for the annual renewal of your domain name and hosting each year.

I’ll help you keep things updated with WordPress and try and take care of all the other tech stuff that b5media handled for you in the past.

Email me or leave a comment if you’re interested.

If you’d like to read more about my history with b5, just read my previous post, The End of My b5media Days.
