Zach Galifianakis
I was watching The Hangover with friends tonight. Zach is probably my favorite stand-up comedian.
Also, people tell me I look like him or something.
But not so much now!

Cutler Salons to visit GBS The Beauty Store
We are so excited to be working with GBS Beauty where we will have our products available to you and be able to share some of our beauty and fashion secrets!
In our two salons, I’ve always believed that fashion begins on the runway. It’s extreme and avant-garde but there is always something every day men and women can take that serves as an inspiration for the next season’s look.
My philosophy on beauty is that it is about taking the inspiration and customizing it to suit your personal lifestyle, face shape and be fashionable. The most important thing is you feel secure, comfortable and confident wearing these looks.
The biggest challenge is making sure you can replicate the looks at home. And, that comes with education from a professional and the right products.
Spring was the season where the red carpet events had a big influence on what was hot. Messy buns, braids and we saw a slew of the Hollywood crowd parting ways with their locks. Which, for a hair dresser is like winning the lottery…short hair is in.
We did the hair for over 30 shows for Spring 2010 New York Fashion Week and I wanted to share with you some of the key looks for the season!
Soft, Bouncy Blow-Out as seen at Carlos Miele
The clothes at the Carlos Miele show were so exquisite that I wanted the hair to be very natural. We created slight movement on the ends of the hair, so it bounced as the models sashayed down the runway.

Triumph Car History (Triumph 10/20 cars models)
The History Of The Triumph Classic Cars with Triumph 10/20 cars models (Triumph Cars Models)
Picture Of Triumph 10/20 Classic carsThis was the first Triumph automobile and was named the 10/20 for the Royal Automobile Club's taxation class of 10 horsepower rating and its actual output of 20 brake horsepower. The design was principally by Arthur Alderson assisted by Alan Lea and Arthur Sykes who were employed by Lea-Francis and Triumph paid them a royalty on every car made.
Picture Of Triumph 10/20 Classic carsIt was powered by a 1,393 cc (1.4L) 4 cylinder side valve engine designed by Harry Ricardo and fitted with a single updraught Zenith carburettor. The engine produced 23.5 brake horsepower (17.5 kW) at 3000 rpm giving the car a top speed of 52 mph (84 km/h) and economy of 40 miles per imperial gallon (7.1 L/100 km; 33 mpg-US). The four speed gearbox was mounted centrally and coupled to the engine by a short drive shaft.
Picture Of Triumph 10/20 Classic carsThis little two seater was the first Triumph production model and sold for £430. A rather high price which relied on their reputation for quality and workmanship. Lucas lighting was fitted, but it still had to acquire front brakes. This is the oldest surviving Triumph car being representative of the first year of car production. Owner Jim Kinghan.
I don't want you to have to work with a telemarketer to protect what's most important.
Yesterday, a telemarketer called our insurance agency to ask if we had our air conditioning system tuned up for the hot summer months ahead. I am always very nice to telemarketers because I make a few outbound calls every now and then... So be nice! I explained to the nice representative that we have an 8 month old system and are fine.
Boy were they lucky!
I happened to meet one of the sales managers for this company at a networking event so it wasn't truly a cold call (even though the person calling didn't know this). Our air conditioning system died yesterday! Perfect timing! Because I didn't have another HVAC company in mind and I had a so-so personal relationship with the company, I called them back and they should have us all fixed up today.
I don't want you to have to work with a telemarketer for your insurance needs (unless it's me on the other end of the line....). When it comes to protecting what's most important for your family: your home, cars, life, business, and more - you really need to work with a local insurance agent that you can trust and count on to be there when needed most.
Designing the proper insurance plan for your family is my goal. Ensuring you have the right limits and deductibles so you are prepared when disaster strikes is a two way street. You may not know that having higher liability limits on your auto and home policies can save you from financial ruin if something were to happen (and that it doesn't cost much more to double or triple those limits). You may not know that having Uninsured Motorist coverage pays for YOUR bodily injury and that you need to have the same limit that you are paying for "Other Person's" bodily injury liability. And so on... I can help design the right plan for you to meet your needs.
Protect your family and work with a local insurance agent that truly cares for your family. If you have an accident and are stranded on the side of the highway, do you want to call an "800" number to speak with a random call center representative? Or, would you like to call your insurance agent on his or her cell phone so they can get you the help you need. By the way, you can always reach me directly by calling 888-994-2786 (my cell phone). p.s. I hope my air gets fixed today. It was 95 in Alabama yesterday and 85 in my office! I don't do "hot" well... ;0)

Alabama Auto Insurance - TWO HUGE DISCOUNTS Just Announced!
We just received two brand new discounts to offer Alabama families who move their car insurance to our agency. My primary concern is to ensure that your family is properly protected in the event that you actually need your insurance. I will rarely discuss price because coverage is most important. Ask someone who bought a "cheap" policy how they felt paying the difference when their low coverage policy didn't cover their total losses...I digress... back to the HUGE DISCOUNTS!
NEW! Premier Package Discount:
2 (or more) Cars + Own Your Home + E-Bill = 10% SAVINGS
NEW! Full Pay Discount:
Pay your 6 month auto policy in full and SAVE 10%
These two new discounts are added on top of all of the other discounts that are already available such as Multiple Car, Multiple Policy, Safe Driver, Good Payer, Occupational Discounts, and more!
This is huge! Does your auto insurance company reward you for paying in full and for being a homeowner? If not, give us a shot to compete for your insurance business. A free review of your current policies may reveal "gaps" in coverage that you can fill even if you don't move your insurance to us. We are honored to serve as a resource for your family (and REALLY like saving you money too!).
Watch the video below to hear me explain these two new discounts.Join Joseph Puckett Online:
