Tim Gunn makes it work for PSAs

Tim Gunn PSA - It Gets Better @ Yahoo! Video

Suicide is no joke, and teens feeling lost and hopeless need to feel they have a place to go and somewhere to turn.  With all the recent gay bashing going on, it is nice that someone as cool as Tim Gunn can open up about his own issues and reach out.  That is truly paying it forward.

Eating breakfast is important. YOU KNOW THIS. Let Timer tell you with a song!

Way Back Wednesday

This PSA is about kids not resorting to food for comfort when they are hurt or upset. More importantly, it tells parents not to give food to their children but instead give them a hug.

The rate of childhood obesity in the 1980's compared to now? According to the CDC:

"Among preschool children aged 2–5, obesity increased from 5.0% to 10.4% between 1976–1980 and 2007–2008 and from 6.5% to 19.6% among those aged 6–11. Among adolescents aged 12–19, obesity increased from 5.0% to 18.1% during the same period. "

I think they need to start airing these PSA's again! I loved them when I was a kid. I am pretty sure they are the reason I didn't start smoking crack and why I love wagon wheels.
