While sipping an energy drink in my man cave and sexting my favorite flexitarian life coach about an earworm that was stuck in my head, I had an aha moment about my bucket list and immediately added, "Open a gastropub", "go geocaching", and "write a book people can read on their e-reader", but then I got a brain cramp and it was a total game changer, a tipping point so severe it made me drop an F-bomb, so I went to my favorite pub for some craft beer and good conversation about shovel ready cloud computing

After the worst geocaching session of my life, I was sitting in the gastropub drinking a previously unthinkable combination of craft beer and energy drink (The Fifth Loko of the Apocalypse), I nearly dropped an F-bomb right in front of some kids after I hit the tipping point into intense brain cramps when I overheard my soon-to-be-former life coach talking about how he'd been sexting on his e-reader's Twitter app from his man cave when he had an aha moment: he could do a mash-up on the latest earworm with that quirky flexitarian food porn he'd YouTubed the other day and get totally famous through the magic of cloud computing and viral marketing.
