11 Famous People who were in the WRONG CAREER at age 30
 

I found this list very inspiring http://www.11points.com/Personal/11_...reer_at_Age_30

Yet another reminder: never give up on your dreams.:thumbsup

bullshit stories most of them...


"The NBA secretly suspended him for gambling but couldn't afford to admit he'd gambled on their games? Scottie Pippen took photos of him having gay sex with Bill Wennington and threatened to blackmail Jordan unless he stepped away? He killed a man? It's all equally plausible (especially the Wennington thing)."

This is also good http://blog.nerdguru.net/2007/07/15/...od-connection/

READING Comprehension.........

Put this line before what you posted and suddenly.. it all becomes clear....

"If this happened today, the Internet would actually blow up with people debating the real reason why Jordan quit."

The umm question marks after each claim may have given a clue to those with a clue I suppose.. lol

"Jesus, carpenter. At age 30, Jesus finally stopped doing carpentry and started performing miracles. See, Harrison Ford and Jesus have more in common than you'd think."

:1orglaugh

:Oh crap

From there, I clicked over to this top 11 list:
Top 11 Lite Beers with Lowest Calories and Highest Alcohol
http://www.11points.com/Food-Drink/1...Make_You_Fa t

1. Beck's Light (64 cal, 3.8% alcohol, 140.4 cal/alcohol oz) - After we finished this breakdown, we started drinking Beck's Light. And while I didn't love it at first, it's growing on me. Sure it smells a little skunky even when it's fresh. Yes, it's far more expensive than the domestics. And sure, it only comes in bottles requiring an opener to get the lid off (which is a problem, for while we haven't outgrown binge drinking or flip cup, we have outgrown bottle opener keychains and Reefs with bottle opener soles).

But it's doing the job. And it's doing it far, far better than any other beer on this list. The calorie-to-alcohol ratio is spectacular to the point of almost being unnatural. I don't know how the Germans did it but, to paraphrase one of the Shamwow Guy's non sequiturs, you know the Germans always make good products.

2. Milwaukee's Best Light (98 cal, 4.5% alcohol, 181.5 cal/alcohol oz) - You make a real statement when you show up at a party with a 12-pack of Beast Light. And that statement is: I stopped to buy beer at a Rite Aid that's going out of business.

3. Natural Light (95 cal, 4.2% alcohol, 188.5 cal/alcohol oz) - One of the first lists I ever wrote for this site was the 11 Best Crappy Domestic Beers. When writing about Natty Light, my thesis was: "You can tell it's made with cheaper ingredients than any of these other beers... and that's saying something."

But who knew when you were drinking Bud Light's trashier cousin it was actually one of the more crafty ways to get drunk on a diet?

4. Miller Genuine Draft 64 (64 cal, 2.8% alcohol, 190.5 cal/alcohol oz) - It's tied with Beck's Light for the lowest calorie beer (at 64)... but is significantly less alcoholic. Also, it is truly, truly flavorless. This is not the beer to sit down and really savor, nor to try to pair with food. Unless you're pairing it with an equally tasteless food, like rice cakes or Domino's Pizza.

5. Miller Lite (96 cal, 4.2% alcohol, 190.5 cal/alcohol oz) - This has the exact same calories-per-ounce of alcohol breakdown as MGD 64, so we used carbs as a tiebreaker and it loses, with 3.2 to MGD 64's 2.4.

But hey, it destroyed Bud Light and Coors Light, neither of which even cracked this top 11. Finally, a win for Miller Lite! Because it's really the RC Cola of the three major light beers.

6.

Aspen Edge (94 cal, 4.1% alcohol, 191.1 cal/alcohol oz) - I had to Google Aspen Edge to find out what it is -- turns out it's Coors's foray into the low-carb beer market. So I can't comment on its taste because I'm not sure that I've ever seen it in a store.

Now that I'm looking for it, if I do see it, I'll buy some and review it on my Twitter feed. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to sum it up in 140 characters or less -- after all, "watery" is only six letters.

7. Budweiser Select (99 cal, 4.3% alcohol, 191.9 cal/alcohol oz) - I don't think anyone really understands the point of Budweiser Select. Maybe it's like the Coke Zero of the Bud family, if Budweiser is Coke and Bud Light is Diet Coke. But it doesn't taste like Bud Heavy at all. So I don't know. And how does Bud Dry fit into the equation? You know, ALL of these issues would be completely clarified if they hadn't killed off the Bud Bowl.

8. Michelob Ultra (95 cal, 4.1% alcohol, 193.1 cal/alcohol oz) - I'm shocked at how many calories are in one of these things. Yes, it's low carb (at 2.6 grams of carbs per bottle it's tied with Aspen Edge for the top spot)... but it's really not that great.

And there's SUCH a stigma attached to drinking this. Just try it out: Buy a six pack of Michelob Ultra bottles and walk into a party. People will either ask you if you're on a diet or ask you how your vagina's doing... but never ask if they can have one.

9. Keystone Ice (142 cal, 5.9% alcohol, 200.6 cal/alcohol oz) - This is the first one on the list that's got big calories and big alcohol, making it more efficient than any of the others. I have basically stayed away from the "ice" genre of beers in my drinking life... not for any particular reason other than that ice beers conjure up an image in my mind of burly alcoholics in North Dakota or Minnesota.

10.

That's me, drinking a Corona Light. I can just feel the pounds melting off.
Corona Light (109 cal, 4.5% alcohol, 201.9 cal/alcohol oz) - I really like Corona Light. To make my THIRD soda analogy of this list, it's the Diet Dr. Pepper of light beers... it tastes the most like the original. It's definitely the best choice when you're at a Mexican restaurant. Tecate is the worst -- it finished ranked 180th on our list, with 146 calories and only 4.6% alcohol.

11. Milwaukee's Best Ice (144 cal, 5.9% alcohol, 203.4 cal/alcohol oz) - The fact that there's a Beast Ice... and I'd never heard of it until I made this list... is my proof that I have so, so much more to learn in life.

To wrap this up with a few other popular beers, Coors Light ranked 19th, Amstel Light 21st, Stella Artois 25th, Bud Light 30th, Busch Light 31st, Colt 45 71st, Bud Heavy 83rd, Heineken 96th, Coors 107th, PBR 115th, Red Stripe 117th, Hefeweizen 124th, Guinness 145th, Corona 165th... and in dead last place, O'Doul's.

I'd hardly consider a deli counter attendant a career LOL

The description of Stallone neglects to mention that his script was rejected MANY MANY times because he insisted that he play the lead. Good thing he stuck to his guns or else things wouldn't have turned out the way they did.

Passion + Perseverance

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Good list!

No way I'd drink a beer that has only 3.8% of alcohol. the best beers are around 5-5.5 :)

Col. Sanders' story is pretty well-known. He sold KFC for $1M back in the 60s I think, correct me if I am wrong.

Interesting list and good read

I don't know if the Jesus one was a step in the right direction.
