Welcome to the introductory post of our new blog spot category, "readers reach around".  We pride ourselves here at bohogan.com on providing top notch unsolicited advice and lifestyle consulting.  We've touched on several critical topics all designed to give our readers a shove or donkey kick in the right direction.  Now it's time to see if we are making a difference.  Many readers have been using the contact Bo feature of this web site to submit questions and to share their lifestyle conquests.  I think its only appropriate to share these success stories as well as expose people who have wrongly interpreted what a bohogan.com lifestyle is all about.  We'll use a rating system based on a very complex formula of key metrics and derivative formulas which will  yield a fist bump, high five or chest bump which all are positive ratings in order of approval.  Or a big pile of turds rating.  Submit your story to Contact Bo and we'll grade you out appropriately. 

The following are real live posts shared by bohogan.com readers. Some have been modified a bit to bring the content in line from inmate worthy to somewhat appropriate.  Enjoy.

Comments: Just read your new Q&A. I could use some help. There was this one time back in college where I had the Keith Sweat playing in the bedroom while entertaining a young co-ed.  Little did I know she had a deviated septum and was allergic to cats. By the time I figured it out... it was too late. My cat was in her hair and the sneezing started and next think I know I was drenched with snot, sweat and orange Gatorade.  The sneezing kept escalating and the cat grew more entangled and I had a big mess.  Without thinking I instinctively reached in my drawer and pulled out goggles and a nose plug and finished my biz.  How did I do?
Bo Says:
If by "biz" you mean finishing your game of chess I think that is common courtesy.  Nago, I'm not going to lie but this story sounds made up.  We try to hold the utmost integrity on our web site in terms of respecting the female species and your story seems to yield a twinge of disrespect or irresponsibility.  That said, your ability to instinctively react in an impossible situation does show the type of improvisation that we at bohogan.com feel is a necessity.  Based on that we give you **Fist Bump.**

Comments: Hypothetically, if I took over as a DJ at a nightclub and I played a song that fits my lifestyle, can I replay that song again on repeat??  Or, if I'm not feeling a song midway through, can I scratch it to a halt and transition to a different song?  Please advise.
Bo Says:
I have personal experience in this area as at one point in my life, I used to make a habit of going to bars super early before the crowd got there and made enough good friends with the bar employees that they would allow me and my friends to take over the DJ booth and play whatever we wanted while getting behind the bar and mixing up our own drinks.  Inevitably, the long island ice teas' would take over and we would over stay our welcome in the booth and as patrons started to fill the bar we would fail to relinquish controls.  Playing songs back to back or on repeat was a staple move of ours as was stopping songs midway through, although we would attempt to fade out, to play a different song.  We also tried to be DJ Scribble and scratch the ones and twos.  While we felt we were doing well, others including management, patron and police officers did not feel the same.  Moral of the story is, unless you are a professional DJ  you should leave the controls to someone who knows what they are doing.  Hitting repeat on your favorite Garth Brooks cut in your car is one thing but doing it in a campus bar on hip-hop night is another.  Also, you should leave the mixology of making a stiff long island up to a pro bar tender.  You don't want to end up eating popcorn off the floor while wearing the hat and glasses of the town regular.  Because your post made me wax nostalgic I'll give you a big **High Five**.

Comments: Yo Bo. I have a brother that is engaged to a chick that has 5 kids with several different dudes and she is about as stable as a firecracker. Do you think I should tell him he is stupid or just drink a lot and try to get as crunk as you in this pic?
Bo Says:
The piture on the contact Bo page is complteetly out of con(hicup)text.  I was tryin to chainge the CD on ma guitar plur and the carpit grebbed my toes, and I didn't want to drop my spensive cognac that I was drnking from my glass......ah.......GET THAT BOZO WEARIN GLASSES! (Said in my best Shooter from Hoosiers drunken dialect).  As per your comment, while we endorse drinking to celebrate all occasions, drinking to suppress emotional guilt, sadness or confusion is not acceptable.  Obviously the right thing to do here is take your brother out and get him completely hammered and make sure he hooks up with the trampiest girl in the bar, take lots of pictures and then post them all over his facebook page.  Problem solved.  Know what I'm saying...**Fist Bump**

Comments: Mr. Hogan, I am an engineer, but I was wondering when you place a $5 bet at, say a horse track like Beulah Park for the Kentucky Derby and bet the number 8 horse at 50-1 odds, the horse wins, and I tell my wife that I bet the horse to show instead of the out-right win, and then spend the winnings on expensive alcohol that night, should I feel guilty or just plan happiness due to 1) winning on ridiculous odds 2) not letting my wife know the true extent of my winnings 3) pulling both off and not remembering how I got home?
Bo Says:
My friend, as Dickie V would say about the Okulaja who played for the Tar Heels, Okulaja, this guy is a PTP'er, a real diaper dandy, a real high flyer pack your bags and up up and away.  And get this, his moms and engineer baby, his moms an engineer baby!!!!  Love the name and I love that you are an engineer.  Ok, this is by far the best example of somebody employing the bohogan.com lifestyle consulting advice in a common situation that almost all of us face every day.  Taking the 50-1 odds to win is just genious first off, and then pulling the ol' Utep two step on the wifey and leaving yourself with a cash cushion to buy and drink lots of expensive alchohol..its...its...(sniff, sniffle, sniff)....just brilliant and now I"m all choked up.  **FLYING CHEST BUMP followed by jubilant hugs and a hoisting onto my shoulders and carrying off the field"

That's all we have time for today folks.  Please keep hitting us up at Contact Bo and let us know how you are living the bo hogan lifestyle.
