Intern Inbox: An actual e-mail received by a Playboy Intern.

Being the point-man for hundreds of college representatives, you can only imagine what kind of pictures are in my inbox post-Halloween. Some will make your pupils dilate, others will scar your memory.

Behold:

Intern's Pick: November Issue

There are few things that I become infatuated with and refuse to let go of them. Daniel Craig reinventing James Bond is one. Lately, MMA is the other. In a move executed by the Playboy Gods, both are in Playboy's November issue.

The UFC has been all over Playboy lately. Start with a piece on Chuck Liddell last November (2007). Almost a year after that, an interview with UFC President Dana White in September 2008. Now, we have Rachelle Leah being featured in the magazine. It just makes me want to re-model my pupils out of content from this issue. Honestly, I am a little worried that having this issue so jam-packed is going to leave December a little dry. We'll find out...

Who is Rachelle Leah?

That's Who!

I was concerned about motivation in my last post, looks like this should hold me off for quite a bit. I'm also dying to see Quantum of Solace. This month they have almost every Bond Girl nude and some other really good editorial pieces.

Let me know if you are interested in taking a look at this month's issue and I can probably hook you up with a dropcard to get a sneak peak for yourself.

WHERE THE FUCK HAVE I BEEN?

That's a great question. The truth is that I've been busy as hell, but times have changed. I used to play volleyball for St. John's University, which is crazy time consuming and I actually left the team. Just as I said I was debating in my last post, I ended up signing up for MMA classes.

Intern life has been pretty sweet. It might seem complicated, but I've been given less tasks and an increased amount of responsibility. Things got a bit shaky in the office with the economy taking a nose-dive, but I'm very optimistic with the direction that our department is heading. As reported, there have been a lot of lay-offs within the company, but I truthfully feel like not too much has changed. There has been a lot of attention with drama in the mansion. Although that shouldn't be a problem, it does seem to take some away from the lifestyle/American Dream that Playboy represents.

As I'm getting more involved with the Campus Representatives, I am definitely seeing a whole new caliber of potential for Playboy's on-campus program. Granted, you will always have people who just want a ton of things for themselves and always request to visit the mansion for "educational purposes", but we made a ton of cuts and we are building an army of super marketers.

My latest words of wisdom: One of the hardest things about working, going to school and being involved in activities is trying to remain equally motivated in all of them. I definitely have to work on that.

An Intern's Pick: Playboy's September Issue.

I just finished doing a freakin awesome project for Playboy. I have to keep it somewhat confidential until the premiere, but I promise it is awesome. It is definitely something interesting and entertaining and non-nude content, but pretty damn close (actually, I might be lying...I think there is nude content). So that is the reason for my recent absence...I know I've done that a couple times, but I'm getting better.

---

Not going to lie. Sometimes when you are constantly around issues of Playboy, you kind of forget and don't realize how much content is around you that can keep you busy. Every month I flip through the new issue to be able to understand and grasp how things were organized in the issue. Having hundreds and hundreds of different issues in front of me makes it difficult for me to grab one that particularly grabs my attention.

The September Issue: Cover model: Anna Faris. She gets naked in the pictorial, but you cannot see it because she is covered by sheets. It is still hot as hell. She is being featured in the magazine because the movie "House Bunny" was just released. The movie looks pretty funny and Anna definitely has gotten way hotter (and bustier) than her Scary Movie days.

The Old Anna Faris

The New Anna Faris

---

My favorite thing about the September Issue: The interview with Dana White is bad ass. Just reading the interview alone got me hooked on the UFC. So much that I have started watching it and his reality show "The Ultimate Fighter". I am even shopping around to possibly take Mixed Martial Arts Classes. I'll let you know how that goes...

Intern Inbox: The GREATEST e-mail that I have ever received at Playboy.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

No need for an explanation. Please just read on...


Hey bud,
David (Sides) came over after he had lunch with you, I didn't get his text that he was here until I woke up at 1.
I went to The Box last night and it was the craziest thing I have ever seen. A girl queefed as conducted by a midget, and an R Kelly impersonator pissed into some girls pussy and she squirted it back out. I was there til 5 this morning just in shock and awe, I'll have to tell you all about it.
Also, I'm booked to go to Vegas later this month for labor day weekend... I know you were planning on September...


This e-mail was received from one of our On-Campus Representatives.

Thanks Willem, I did not eat lunch today.

Lunch Break with a Playboy Intern: I hate tourists.

Behold: The Devil's Lair Ambercrombie & Fitch

Abercrombie & Fitch is a clothing brand that sells American attire. The flagship store of Abercrombie & Fitch is right next to our office. Therefore, when tourists come here to New York (every day), that place gets ridiculously packed. What the hell kind of name is Ambercrombie & Fitch anyway? The above image is of the crowd at the store on a stormy day.

When I go to lunch everyday, I have to walk through this obstacle course/gauntlet and it drives me crazy. People just stand there and look at the store and do not move. They are not in line. They are not busy. They are rude and push their way to get from point A to point B. When everyone is walking on one side of the sidewalk, they walk to opposite direction just to try to be a pain in the ass (successful). They are annoying and I swear: before my last day at Playboy, I will punch a tourist in their face. It will hurt them...a lot.

I will aim for their jaw. This way, when I say "excuse me", they can't look at me like they don't know English and then talk to other people in English. I am offering the keys to my house to anyone who can walk back and forth from that place three times in one day without wanting to give a nice backhand to someone.

Salt on the wound: The place smells like someone drank a bottle of cologne and pissed all over the place.

Damn you, Abercrombie & Fitch. I never liked flip flops, anyway.

Playboy Intern Tasks: Organizing Events for the Big 10

Since 1977, Playboy has been featuring a "Girls Of..." pictorial once each year. This feature has highlighted models from specific sports conferences or party schools. This year, Playboy will be featuring The Girls of the Big 10.Playboy's "Girls Of..." pictorial has actually started with the Girls of the Big 10 when the feature first began. Here we are, 31 years later: same conference...less bush.

From Girls of the Big 10 in the 80s

The College Marketing Department will be traveling to three colleges from the Big 10. I will be assisting the remaining eight campuses in also having successful events.

TGIF: Lunch Break with the Playboy Intern.

It's Friday. I feel lazy. I feel tired. Every minute feels like an hour. There is almost nobody here at the office. Today I am working on finding places to market the upcoming September issue and I am also brainstorming for our Big 10 Events. In Playboy's October issue, "the Girls of the Big 10" will be featured.

It's a slower day and the weather is crappy as hell. I took lunch around 2:00 and saw this ridiculously good looking girl. (I'm an ass guy, so if I saw ridiculously good looking, it usually means that all I saw was her ass). She was like 5'7" and had on the biggest sunglasses (and something[s] else) I've ever seen. I gave her a smile like I meant it and she took off her sunglasses and smiled back. I am no pedaphile, but Fuck! The shape-shifter went from being a smoking hot girl to a fifteen your old. Since when do fifteen year olds grow to be 5'7" with full C cups?

I blame (and kinda thank) Miley Cyrus, damn it!

Stop looking at fifteen year olds!...

Perv!

...I am never having a daughter.

Week 1: Playmates vs Cyber Girls.

Let me break something down first and foremost. The Playboy Model Pyramid works like this:

1. Playmates
2. Cyber Girls
3. Special Edition Models

One thing that I have noticed from working some of our events and from conversing with people in general is that sometimes a Cyber Girl or Special Edition model may be known better than the actual Playmate. Playmates are considered the cream of the crop, while Cyber Girls may look just as good, they may not be as photogenic.

Strike a Pose: Playboy Intern Becomes Model on TV for a Morning.

As some of you may have caught on...working for Playboy leads you towards some of the most random side-jobs and side-tasks ever. Luckily, this one was sa-weet!


How it happened: Joseph DeAcetis is the head honcho (Fashion Director) when it comes to fashion at Playboy Enterprises, Inc. In our August Issue, Joseph composed a piece about modern day Cowboy Fashion as a tribute to the top American Bull-riders (Cannot imagine how to spell their names for the life of me). Jessica from the Public Relations Department was asked to gather some models to showcase Mr. DeAcetis' picks for a modern cowboy wardrobe and one of the models chosen was me!

Where was it?: It was in New York City at the studio for the CW11, which is one of the more popular channels on basic TV here in New York. The segment was filmed live for the CW11 Morning News Show and was broadcasted to milli0ns of people throughout New York.

"Insert West Side Story Line here, haha"

What was it like?: Not what you would think, I'll tell you that much. Call time was 6:30a.m. So, you can imagine how tired I was. After hanging out in the greenroom and changing into the outfits we would be showcasing, they gave us a brief walk-through of what we would be doing. One thing stuck in my head from the overview..."Look Straight". I started to get nervous when I realized the pants were slowly sliding down and did not want to mess up the segment. When it was my turn to go down the runway, a couple of the camera guys are waving at me to look at their camera, but I try to look straight and get confused.

What did I wear?: Jacket and shirt by Paul Stuart. Jeans by AG. Boots by Donald Pliner

Check out the official video of the segment here

A Day at the Office: The Intern has been "had".

"Gotcha!" The infamous words that we say to somebody before letting them bite the dust.

About a week ago, I was on my way to lunch and I saw Rocky walking the opposite direction. Rocky is not an italian boxer from New York. He is a highly respected writer for Playboy and works upstairs with editorial (duh!). Primarily, Rocky works alongside Chris Napolitano. Rocky came to Spring Break with us last year and it definitely wouldn't have been half as memorable as it was without him.

Anyway, I'm on my way to lunch checking out all of the girls in their summer dresses that are see-through in the sunlight. I notice a few picking wedgies and a few squeezing their tig bass itties ( o )( o )together.


While caught in a trance from a hottie pulling up her dress, I see Rocky in the corner of my eye for about 2 seconds.


I turn to say "what's up" to him, only to get the infamous hand sign. The hand sign that looks like "A-Okay"...the hand sign that screams "Gotcha!"...the hand sign that leaves you right in the dust.


I make my way back to the office and see to it that I send Rocky a very important e-mail containing the below image.

Within minutes...I go back to the e-mail to save it and somehow Rocky had replaced it with an image of his own.
Congrats, Rocky! You got me....for now. Too bad that cool hat you're wearing used to sit in my cube and I know that it was designed for females.

...Smooth...

Soon enough, I will have the perfect counter to take care of business. I've been trying to come up with a master plan to get Rocky in the best way possible.



Send me some suggestions on clever ways for me to get him back!

Ask Charlie Test Video: Advice from a Playboy Intern.

As mentioned in my last post, I will be featured as somewhat of an adviser for PlayboyU and have finally put together a test video. Keep in mind that this is a rough draft of a rough draft; therefore, it is nowhere close to being the finished product.

My verdict:

• Sick ass intro.
• Shitty and boring when I speak.
• Background looks to ghetto.

I have received some great pointers from Chris Duncan. Let me know what you think...

Rise of Charlie will be on PlayboyU.com: Ask Charlie...

What's up everybody?,

Soooo...
Some pretty cool news:I will be featured on as somewhat of an advisor. The whole concept is for people to let me know any problems or hard choices that they are facing and I will either help them out by making their decision easier.

---

Here is a sneak peak of the feature graphic:

---

It will be a video feature with an intro performed by Lil' Wayne.

The song will be Weezy's remix (link to hear it)of the old Beatle's hit "Help".

---

One thing that I am worried about it how much of a dick I can come across as by being honest.

Let's see if the PlayboyU community can handle it...

Why So Serious??? The Dark Knight & The Mail Room Guys at Playboy are the Shit!

What's going on, everybody?

Over the past few months, the mail room guys here have had me drooling over The Dark Knight.


We have seen about 20 minutes worth of footage from the movie and it looks awesome.

Alberto from the mailroom and I have been plotting to see the very first showing here in New York, but we're hesitant because lines at the movies in New York resemble lines at College Fest.

---

Line at CollegeFest 2007:

Since Alberto seems to be backing out, I'm thinking of going solo at like 6a.m. The reviews of this movie were amazing and are supposed to be Earth shaking as Heath's final bow.

I'll let you know if I grew the balls to go or not and how the movie is.

---

Why I'm such a douche...

Why the hell have I not written on this for like a month? I'm not one for excuses, so let us be real. I'm a lazy douche bag.

If I were to use an excuse, I would say I've been really busy or that there hasn't been that many really exciting things going on here. Half of that would be true.

So let me cut the bullshit and post something to let you know what is going on behind the scenes.

I will be more loyal with my posts. Scouts Honor.

Good news:We already have a sponsor for College Fest. It's a video game called Saint's Row 2, which is pretty much like Grand Theft Auto, but with gangs.

---

Bad News: My desk was sabotaged!

Survey Says: The Most Popular Musicians to College Students

One of the tasks that I have been working on lately is to skim through old applications for Playboy Campus Representatives. One of the questions that we asked prospective Playboy On-Campus Reps was to list their favorite musicians/artists/DJs. So far, I have check about 75 expired applications and the results were really interesting.

---

Last years most popular music choice of prospective Playboy On-Campus Reps:

Red Hot Chili Peppers

---

There is currently a six way tie with current leaders for most popular music choice of prospective Playboy On-Campus Reps:

Rascal Flatts

VS.


Lil Wayne
VS.

Justin Timberlake | TimbalandVS.

Chris Brown
VS.

Britney Spears

---

I've got to be honest, this completely shocked me. I'm a fan of all of them, but I did not expect there to be a six way tie. However, keep in mind that I am only 75 people in. More results to come...wait till you hear the clothing brands (Hint: One guy even said Victoria's Secret and six girls have voted for edible lingerie.)

A day in the life of an intern: How to stay smiling all day...

First of all, you should already be smiling like crazy...it's summer for crying out loud. Nonetheless, while working, I can tend to just turn into a robot when I have a long task to do. How do I keep myself energized and in a ridiculously happy mental state.

1. I work for Playboy...enough said.
2. Clips like these of course...

One of my co-workers had sent me these 2 videos today and I was nearly in tears (don't worry, they are only 1 minute each):

Finals Are Over!!!! Let the Good Times Roll!!!!

I know...I was a ghost for the past week or so. Truth be told, I've been slacking with school and was in dire need of stepping my game up to make it alive through the semester.

---

Valuable Lesson of Interning: If you are still in school, one of the most important things is to balance your success between work and school. Especially if you are working with a renown company, it is so vital that you don't get too thirsty for the limelight.

My Confession: In all honesty, I got so excited working with Playboy and after doing a couple things right, I lost focus of school. Don't get me wrong, I think school is ridiculous at some points because the more that I work with a company, the more that I realize school is a business. After not giving a shit for the semester, I now have an A-, B- and B. I'm pretty concerned that I may have failed 2 of my classes (Western Economical Development in US History & a Calculus course emphasizing Business Applications) that I am awaiting grades for, but I don't really know. I can blame my uncertainty on my teachers and how hard they are to understand, but the truth is that it's my own fault. I've had teachers that were tough to understand before and always made it through. Only time will tell.

---

Being back to work after finals was a breath of fresh air and my first day back definitely put a smile on my face. How could it now when I come back to a cube looking like this:
The Mystery: Who the hell did it!? I am 6'4", so whoever did it was tall as hell! My first guess was Chris, so to get him back...I made a doorway of cups to get into his cube:
I would later find out that it definitely was not him. Not only that, but Chris is a nice guy to the sense that you instantly feel bad for doing things to him, things like filling the opening of his cube with Playboy cups.

---

The week was an exhausting one. I stayed up till like 4 a.m. every night studying mostly the wrong material and would miss a great Rock the Rabbit event. On top of that, I did something foolish and selfish with a mailing at work. I need to get my act together and with the summer starting, it couldn't be a better time for me to really step my game up.

Another Valuable Lesson When Interning: ALWAYS keep your eye on the ball. It's important that you always stay focussed on things you're doing and always try to avoid mixing business with pleasure and business with your personal life. Believe me when I say it sounds easier than it is.

Witness the Rise of Charlie at the Yankee Game!!!

What a freakin day yesterday was! Not only did I get a lot accomplished at work and have no class on what was supposed to be the last day of classes, but I met some new people at work that I haven't had the privilege to work with yet.

Short Quest Meeting the Fashion Director: Late in the work day, I went to make myself some popcorn in the staff kitchen. Usually when I do this, I make like 6 cups of extra popcorn to give to whoever would want some. One of the people who asked for popcorn was the Global Fashion Director at Playboy. He was a really nice guy and said down the line he could use me as a model. As cool as that was to hear, I dished out more popcorn and headed back to my cube.

The Yankee Game: While finishing up working on raising awareness of our upcoming June issue, an angel came to my cube, haha. One of the personnel in the department I work in offered myself and Chris Yankee tickets, because they weren't going to be able to attend the game. My mind and mouth took over and said the word "of course" immediately. One hour later, I was in the 10th row at Yankee Stadium!



I love sports, so this was Christmas come early for me! It was a pretty sweet game and I wound up bringing 3 available friends. Initially, I planned on going with Chris and we'd end up taking one other person each, but Chris was pretty tired and had a lot to do.

The game was sweet, tickets were amazing, weather was perfect and the crowd around us was awesome!!! I couldn't have asked for more.

Check out the video I made:

Evolving Into More of an Asshole...

Cinco De Mayo was interesting to say the least. Nothing major, just wings and beer with some friends. While getting gas, I struck up a conversation with some spanish girl (my favorite). She looked sooo much like the girl from the first Fast and Furious.

Jordana Brewster:
It was in conversing with this stuck up bitch that I've realized I'm evolving into more of an asshole. Believe me when I say that this is something I have desperately needed. I'm charming and charismatic as fuck, but my kindness is ALWAYS my weakness. One gaping flaw of mine is that I tend to be too nice to the wrong people and in turn, I always manage to get taken advantage of...whether it be for money (which I don't have much of), time, or emotions.

The conversation went a little something like this:

Charlie: That shirt looks amazing!
Bitch: Thanks, I like it a lot too. My boyfriend got it for me.
Charlie: What do you mean? I meant the shirt on the billboard.
Bitch: Oh my god! That is so embarassing...
Charlie: Haha, I know...if it makes you feel better, you can make fun of me or we can talk about how embarrassing it is for me to be talking to a girl with a $60,000 car, while mine cost me $5,500.
Bitch: Is that why your car was making all that noise?
Charlie: Oh no, that's the beat-boxing feature. My car beat boxes on it's own.
Bitch: Haha. That was cute. If your car was nicer, that would have earned you my number.
Charlie: Your number is 10...because thats how many minutes you've been pretending to pump gas and waiting to say something like you just did. My number is 1...because my tank is full and thats how many minutes until I leave you to your materialistic self. Tell your parents they have a pretty nice car.

How the fuck did I magically acquire a monster pair of testicles? I don't fucking know. I'll blame it on my recent obsession with Nip/Tuck and the personality of one of the shows stars Christian Troy (played by Julian McMahon).That girl had it coming. Point is: sometimes it's better for us to replace our hearts with our spine.

The old me would have ate up her comments and then went home to research new cars for two hours. BUT, the new "nice guy gone asshole" me didn't take shit because fuck it...why should I from a spoiled girl like that?

I have to get on the bus for work in an hour and a half, so I better get going. Cheers!!!

This summer is going to be one for the record books...

Cinco De Mayooooo!!!!!! Bring on the Tequila and Corona!!!

Wellllllllllllll...it's Cinco De Mayo!!! As I gather myself on the last day of classes, I think of how I can celebrate tonight's festivities without involving any form of studying for finals. So as I plan out how to make this Cinco De Mayo one to remember, I ask myself...what would Hef do?

I remember at this point last year I was watching the De La Hoya vs. Mayweather fight with some friends. As nice as it was drowning myself in Cuervo and Corona, I needed to step my game up.

To celebrate tonights fiesta, we picked up some wings from Hooters. I'll never forget the Hooters girls from tonight. Personally, I usually hardly check out the girls when I go to Hooters. I guess that it's just not really my thing to watch girls flirt with ninety year old guys and truck drivers. Furthermore, the girls were ridiculously hot and we ordered a few Coronas while waiting for our order, not only did they hook us up with the coolest and biggest bottles ever, but they sat and drank with us for awhile.

Considering that today is a Monday, I will be very limited as to my options. Nonetheless, it is off to a really really good start. Words can't say how much I miss Mexico on days like this.

Cheers, caballeros!!!

An End to the Crazy Eights!!! 8 Girls in One Mansion Throwing the Best Parties on Campus!!!

What happens when you take 8 gorgeous college girls and throw them in a mansion together?

I'm sure a lot of random shit! But, you also get the best parties you can imagine. Amazingly enough, these girls are tough and smart, so there parties never had much drama. Besides throwing the sickest parties, their some of the most focussed girls I know. They all have things going on with themselves to move up in life and they somehow manage to party hard and keep busy. Besides being a party house, I've been there on random days to vent out to some of the girls and they've always been there to listen to me bitch.

Sadly, the lease of the "Crazy 8 House" has ended. Therefore, here is a "Cheers!" to the girls... For throwing the parties that we'll never forget!

Last weekend they had their last party and it was fucking awesome! I made sure that I got some Playboy gear for them to make the last party one to remember. Everybody at the party was really cool and every girl there looked amazing! There weren't any fights, there weren't any sober people and there wasn't a dull moment the entire night.

The cops eventually came to try to break the party up, but nobody wanted to leave!!! As for me, I woke up in an apartment a couple blocks away from their house.

"Cheers" to the Crazy 8's!

The Night I Got Demolished by Hookah!!!

...Sequence of Events...

This was no typo. While aiming to do something a little different, friends and I chose to check out a Hookah Lounge in Queens, NY. First and foremost, I have been around pretty much every drug in existence (that doesn't mean I did them all). Secondly, I have smoked hookah about a dozen times before this occurrence.

So...somebody please explain to me, how the fuck I got so damn light-headed off Hookah. My logic tells me that I was taking monster hits and my lungs were being worked harder because I was inhaling and exhaling way longer than I usually do. Nonetheless, I carried on and inhaled that flavored tobacco like a champ.

Hef seems to be a Jack of All Trades, so I put work into that Hookah to step my game up too!

Considering how sensual and crazy it is inside a Hookah Spot, my next goal is to have sex in one.

How I Pussied Out of 2 Situations with Women:

• I was so close to achieving it this time, but pussied out because I felt like our waitress was all touchy feely on me because she wanted to work the tip (She wanted to work the tip of my !@#$). I swear, this woman would rub my shoulders when she came to take our order and rake her nails down my back every time she walked away. Our Hookah was supposed to be $10.00 each (We ordered 2). But, we were somehow given a $90.00 check, with the addition of a surprise $60.00 music charge (Music from Snake Charmers). The crazy check made me forget about the hot waitress and it was a conquest I missed out on.
• My second potential ticket to poon was on the dance-floor. Steve and Joe (seen below), pointed out these 2 smoking hot women doing the lesbian dance on the dance-floor. As I gathered myself to stand up and approach them, I noticed a group of guys that wouldn't take their eyes off of them. I figured they'd be no match for me when it came to charming these women, but they learned that the girls actually were married to those men (who were in a pretty big group of scary guys)...case closed.
  

Things ARE bigger in Texas!!! Charlie goes to Dallas re-cap!

NOW THAT I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION AND YOU LOVE VOLLEYBALL AS MUCH AS I DO...

This would be the 5th year of my life that I play volleyball competitively. However, it is the third year that I'd be going to the Collegiate National Championships. "Dude, volleyball is a chick's sport"...I know.

Consider this, several hundred teams in downtown Dallas...of these several hundred teams, there are about 15 people per team and after all, it is a "chick's sport", leaving the girl to guy ratio very favorable.

Weird fact about me: For whatever reason, I am usually one of the first people noticed when walking in a room. Why? 1. Because I'm always smiling like an idiot and 2. because I'm really tall. HOWEVER, the celebrity of this trip was Alex Wong.

Who the fuck is Alex Wong?:
Alex Wong is a volleyball player who stands at a mere five feet tall (5'). Alex jumps nearly 40" in the air on command, which explains why most people come to our games just to marvel at him. He is pretty much our version of the greaseman from Ocean's 11.

Here is Alex blocking a 6' 6" hitter. ( 18" taller than him)

Considering that there are so many teams in such a small area, you can imagine what the hotel's were like. This year, we stayed at the Hotel Adolphus, which is a four star hotel that Queen Elizabeth stays at when she comes to America. Unfortunately, our hotel did not have many college teams staying at it; but, where there is a will...there is a way and we made it a point to go to the "zoo" of a hotel where everybody else was. People were passed out on elevators, crawling from door to door.

Within 5 minutes, of walking through the hotel, our little Asian Celebrity was spotted by groupies who begged for a picture with him. Shit was ridiculous.

At the end of the trip, the "Zoo" would have a party to celebrate the end of the tourney and believe me when I say this place was packed. (There had to be three girls per guy in there).

While scouting the dance floor and socializing with random girls, I end up finding myself on stage for the remainder of the night. How? I couldn't even tell you. Alone? Helllll no!!! I ended up dancing the night away with a girl who walked right out of the "Call on me" music video. It was heaven in Dallas. Although we didn't win much on the court, our time spent off the court will not be forgotten.

Site Re-Design and Expansion!!! Woooo!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages...it is my pleasure to introduce you to a sneak preview of this sites re-design. I have been in the process of revamping the look of the site, the way its organized and I'll have scheduled posts that I'll follow (Every other day or so I will be posting). The new site will have sick links, galleries and new features, BUT until it is up, I'll be sure to post on here more frequently. Without further a due...I present to you a sneak peak of the Rise of Charlie 2.0
