Do you remember playing dodgeball as a kid? I was always the fast skinny kid and I used my speed to my advantage. Others I know used their reflexes and power to catch thrown balls and/or bat away projected balls with the current ball in hand. Regardless of what stereotypical dodgeball characteristic you possessed as a child you can potentially relive your glory days. Thunderballz is an outdoor extreme events company based in the UK. Among other things, they host adult dodgeball events nationwide in London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Brighton, Nottingham, Liverpool, Newcastle & more. These events are good-natured, yet often end up being extremely competitive. However, they make for great company teambuilding events or just for a fun Stag and Hen weekend. It reminds me of that movie, Dodgeball (2004), starring Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller, except in this case you’re not necessarily playing to win prize money to save your fledgeling local gym. While just as wildly hilarious as the movie, if not more so, Thunderballz will certainly be an event to remember -- be sure someone has their camera or better yet, take video for social posting later. Posted by Nick Venturella When is the best time to do dumb, juvenile things? Usually, in the company of good friends who understand your fun-loving personality. I remember being in college and getting together with a bunch of guy friends to do fun stuff like, tray sledding in the winter time (we would steal lunch trays from the cafeteria and use them as sleds) or going golfing in warmer months...and even paintballing and go-karting. Whatever the activity was, it didn’t matter how good or bad we were at it, but it was about letting loose, hanging out with some good pals and enjoying being in the moment, knowing those moments won’t last forever. However, the memories have. Stag Ideas is a UK-based site that offers a bunch of ideas for bachelor parties, otherwise known as Stag Weekends. Stag Ideas can help you identify ideas for the ideal boy’s bash and help you book the event. Ideas include:
Whatever you decide to do, you can let loose, hang with the guys and be as free as a teenager again, at least for a little while. Posted by Nick Venturella
People love to share their opinions. Especially, on topics that they have a lot of experience in or feel strongly about.
Music and fashion are two areas where people with such an interest are often passionate about it. For me, music is not just an interest, but a passion that contributes to my livelihood. I've been a professional musician for over 20 years -- writing, performing and producing -- so I love to listen to new music and give feedback about how it resonates with me...or doesn't. The idea is to offer constructive criticism that is honest and respectful with an eye toward benefiting the artist and their team in a way that helps further improvement as they constantly hone their craft. Tapping into that love for music discovery, and the inner producer in me, is what I find appealing about slicethepie.co. Slicethepie pays passionate people to write reviews about music and fashion. Slicethepie allows you to constantly pique your musical or fashion interests with new discoveries that you can write your honest reviews about, get paid and help the creators of those songs/fashions improve their output.
