Music Video "Here Goes Nothing"


Here Goes Nothing YouTube address:

HERE GOES NOTHING    I didn’t write this song. But this song is  about jumping into love    The  “Touched By An Angel” director Michael Schaertl was from NYC and thought the best raging river to film would be Niagara Falls. So yes, we filmed this in NYC in the winter.    I had double pneumonia and it was 40 below zero and one day there were 53 mph winds.  The rainbow scene was filmed out on the ice formation by Niagara Falls. I looked way down in the ice back by the mountain and asked what the metal thing was…They answered that was the ramp that was built so people could look over the falls…We were standing clear out on mere ice. That was scary

Book "Popularity and Social Skills"

"Popularity and the 5 Dimensions of Charm"
In college one of my majors was Sociology. I was fascinated with why some people were popular and others were not. At first I thought it was beauty but I found many examples that was not the case. I discovered in my research that it is a learned skill.I owned a Charm School where the skills were taught and it was proven that it worked time and time again. This has Social, Emotional, Physical, Mental and Spiritual Beauty Skills for Success.
