      <title>The Russini-Vrabel Fiasco &amp; PI Work</title>
      <link>https://ernestortizwritesnow.com/the-russini-vrabel-fiasco-and-pi-work?pk_campaign=rss-feed</link>
      <description>&lt;![CDATA[I like to watch sports every now and then, but I don’t watch sports news. Then again, I don’t read much news. Anyway, I’ve been interested in the Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel drama for the past few days. Not because I like drama but how a private investigator played a key role in it.&#xA;&#xA;I’ll spare you the details of the fiasco. You can look them here on The Shadow League link. The following couple pictures I’ll talk about next come from the TMZ Sports Page link. The photos were taken from an Arizona resort.&#xA;&#xA;The first picture you see is Russini and Vrabel standing in front of each other, on top of some wooden patio, with their hands forward and interlocking fingers. Notice how the photo is a little grainy, but not too much that you can still tell who they are by their faces. That usually means the PI was at a distance where the camera’s optical zoom was at its limit before picture quality fades.&#xA;&#xA;The second photo you see is Russini and Vrabel (wearing swim trunks and bathing suit, respectively) lying on the pool. Notice the picture quality is better than the first. The PI must have been pretty close to them. Either the PI was next to the pool or still outside the resort where anyone can see in.&#xA;&#xA;Keep in mind, Russini and Vrabel both have spouses. And while there’s no kissing or sexual activity it still doesn’t look good for the two. And it’s more than likely that Russini’s husband and Shake Shack senior manager, Kevin Goldschmidt, hired the private investigator.&#xA;&#xA;As a former private investigator with thirteen years of surveillance work (mostly workers comp) I’m still amazed on the quality of the photos and the work done by the PI in charge of the infidelity case. Those two still shots are more than likely taken from whatever video the PI recorded. Video evidence is often more powerful than photos when it comes to infidelity and workers comp cases. If a photo is worth a thousand words, a video is at least three times that, if not more.&#xA;&#xA;I guess there are two lessons in all of this: 1) there will never be a shortage of cheaters, which means more PI work, and 2) in the long run, cheaters never prosper. Don’t be like Russini and Vrabel. You never know who’s watching.&#xA;&#xA;cheating&#xA;drama&#xA;fiasco&#xA;infidelity&#xA;photo&#xA;pi&#xA;privateinvestigator&#xA;Russini&#xA;sports&#xA;video&#xA;Vrabel&#xA;&#xA;a href=&#34;https://remark.as/p/ernestortizwritesnow.com/the-russini-vrabel-fiasco-and-pi-work&#34;Discuss.../a&#xA;&#xA;!--emailsub--&#xA;]]&gt;</description>

      <title>On Limiting Pictures &amp; Videos On My Blog</title>

      <description>&lt;![CDATA[When I blogged on my other website, I had to put a feature image to entice readers and improve my SEO ranking. Yuck! I didn’t want to use free stock photos so I had to take the pictures with my phone instead. Many content writers are told that audio recordings, multiple pictures, and videos will make your articles stand out more. Make it more digestible because apparently our attention spans are worse than a goldfish.&#xA;&#xA;While photos and videos can help bring out your main topic, too much media can overwhelm the reader and make them lose interest. Worse, make them spend hours watching content from YouTube and TikTok. Many people are like watching junk cause it looks and tastes good. But you end up with a sour stomach or in this case brainrot. &#xA;&#xA;However, there are plenty who are hungry and thirsty for authenticity and substance. If you think this blog is one of many examples of what people want, then thank you. I really appreciate it.&#xA;&#xA;Readers want writers who aren’t afraid to write more than 280 characters or write less than a long-winded expose of the corruption of politicians. It’s words that ultimately carry weight when pictures and videos nowadays can be more easily manipulated to suit someone’s narrative. I know words can be just as manipulated, but it’s all we have left.&#xA;&#xA;This is why Write.as is the best blogging platform to date. I want my words to carry weight without the distractions of photos and videos. Therefore, I won’t add any unless they’re necessary, like how-to or review articles. And definitely none of my family, relatives, or friends.&#xA;&#xA;Focus on the words. All of us need to do this.&#xA;&#xA;writing&#xA;blogging&#xA;picture&#xA;video&#xA;&#xA;a href=&#34;https://remark.as/p/ernestortizwritesnow.com/on-limiting-pictures-and-videos-on-my-blog&#34;Discuss.../a&#xA;&#xA;!--emailsub--&#xA;]]&gt;</description>
