May You Have a Great Month!

A gathering for May 1 “Eid il Fitr” ,which translates to “When Phil Posts to His Blog”

When people think of “the holidays” they usually think of the November-February stretch that includes many of the popular holidays in the English speaking world. If you look a little further, you’ll see that in both English speaking countries and other countries there are a lot of underrated great holidays that occur in the month of May. I’m going to spend the month posting about and making good natured fun of most of these holidays.

Three of these awesome holidays occur consecutively during the first week of May. I will list them in a poll below and please vote for the one that you want to learn the most about.

Whichever holiday is chosen will be the first post in May. If you have one that’s not on the list, please shout it at me in the comments!

Thank you for your participation! ~ Phil

What’s Your Pick for Worst Movie? The Friday Poll

download (35)

This Sunday is The Academy Awards. Picking best picture is boring because the award never goes to movies that normal people would see. So let’s vote for the worst movie of 2015 because those are the movies more likely to be watched by uneducated heathens like us. The nominees for Worst Picture of 2015 come from Rolling Stone’s list of the ten worst pictures.

Have a great Friday! ~Phil

Love, Exciting and New… The Friday Poll is Back!

Climb aboard, we’re expecting you!

With Valentine’s Day tantalizingly close, I thought some of you 80’s aficionados would appreciate hearing that song again. Of all the old shows they’ve made updated, current versions of, why not The Love Boat? Who doesn’t want to see B-list celebrities from cancelled TV shows hooking up every week amidst a flimsy plot premise and corny dialogue? The original crew could make cameos. It would be great!

In a comment give the reason for your vote AND who you would want to see on the new Love Boat if it were to come back now.

Have a great Friday! ~Phil

Would You Rather? The Friday Poll

In a past poll we had money versus love and of course love won, but what about time? Is time on the face of the Earth worth more than money? You tell me and give your reasoning in the comments.

The Friday Poll! If You Had a Superpower…

In last weeks poll of brains vs. beauty the voters overwhelmingly chose to have brains over beauty. This week the question is, if a genie popped out of a bottle and offered you a choice of two superpowers…

The Friday Poll! Brains or Beauty?

First off, the results of last weeks poll are in and in a surprise upset love beat out money. For a while it looked like romance was dead, but love made a late comeback to win the day.

Once about 60 years ago Marilyn Monroe sat next to Albert Einstein at a dinner party. The following conversation is alleged to have happened:

Marilyn: “I want to have your child. With my looks and your brains, it will be a perfect child!”

Einstein: “But what if it has my looks and your brains?”

This weeks question is which would you choose, brains or looks:

Friday Poll! Would You Rather Have Love or Money?

Last week when I posted a poll about making changes to #ThePhilFactor I decided that instead of taking away anything I was doing that I would add a regular Friday poll on a humorous topic. Please vote for your answer on the poll and give your explanation in the comments.

Have a great Friday! ~Phil
