March's Sprezz Of The Month!

The moment has arrived and it’s time to have some fun with March’s Sprezz Of The Month. For new readers, each month we honor someone who has exemplified the values of Sprezzatura. We also acknowledge the Spazz of the month, who has done quite the opposite. Last month, Hugh Jackman took the honor while Chris Brown basked in his own notoriety.

I’d like to give this month's props to Nick, the manager of Energy Kitchen in Hoboken, New Jersey. Nick displayed the type of class that you just don’t come across too often. Revisit The Ostrich Burger for details. His actions showed a true passion for excelling at what he does, and his welcoming demeanor left a great impression with my friends.

Honorable mention has to go to Tiger Woods, who matched his largest comeback ever this month. Returning from a nine month absence, he entered the last round of his most recent tournament trailing 5 holes behind the leader.

For anyone who doesn’t follow the sport, that’s A LOT of catching up to do in a short period of time. However, Tiger is so dominant at his profession that his mere presence alone has been known to intimidate his opponents. True to his reputation, he pulled off a legendary performance in a calm, confident and clutch manner. That’s Sprezzatura.

As for the Spazz of the month, it’s the one and only “Octomom”, who recently gave birth to eight children. Sure, everyone is entitled to have children, but it seems like she may have bitten off more than she can chew.

Consider the following points, presented by Pilar D’Agnese, my editor in chief.

1. She is a single mom
2. She already had 6 kids
3. She couldn't support the first 6 (she resorts to government food stamps)
4. She has a history of mental disability
5. She has a history of depression
6. She reasoned that having 8 more kids would “make her feel better”
7. She created a website where people can make donations
8. She spent $1500 on clothes for herself
9. Even her mother wants the children to be seized by the government.

This woman doesn’t even appear to be in control of her own life. How can she possibly be relied on to raise all of these children?

Not cool, Octomom.


With that said, look forward to a fun article (Just another day in the life) coming your way tomorrow, followed by the return of Dr. Bob on Friday!
