Got Mobile???

So today I made the jump and purchased a new laptop, I mean if I plan on being this great and famous writer, then I must be able to write whenever ideas are sparked. Best Buy, A place I normally despise, actually had a great deal on a HP Pavillion I had been looking at for quite awhile. So expect more post and more political oriented subject matter as we get closer to the elections. I hope the GOP will pull it out we shall see.....until then vote no matter what side of the fence you sit on every vote and voice matters.

A Time to Laugh......

I heard a funny joke today so I figured I would share it.....

A blonde calls her boyfriend and says, "Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can't figure out how to get it started."

Her boyfriend asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?"

The blonde says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a tiger."

Her boyfriend decides to go over and help with the puzzle. She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table.

He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says, "First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a tiger."


He takes her hand and says, "Second, I want you to relax. Let's have a nice cup of tea, and then ...."


He sighed................ "Let's put all the Frosted Flakes back in the box.”

Here We Go Again....

So today was one of those days you reflect on times of the past. You know, the days where you think "What if I would have done this instead of that" I have been doing that alot here recently.

I know the things that are contributing to this, but I will keep them to myself for now. This will all be revealed in due time. Until then the reason must remain a mystery.

On another note, I'm going back home this weekend. It is always weird when I go back home. The "Nothing has changed but me" scenario. All my childhood friends are still doing the same shit and living the same lives. I guess if that makes you content then who am I to judge right?

Anyway, I am making the trip, not only to see my family, but also to go to the state fair. I remember being younger the fair was always this event we waited for every year. We even had a day off from school to go to it. It was like the Six Flags for poor people. You would watch the older "Bad-Asses" ride these rides designed to make you puke on your girl, and lose all hope of even a hand-job on the way home. Yet, all you could think was if I ride the "Pukenator 3000" I'll be as cool as him. Slowly but surely all your friends drag you down to Pussville with them to hide their own fears until you get on the damn ride. Especially if there are girls involved. Who wants to be the puss holding the men's shit, while they ride, standing beside the other girls who won't ride anything but the swings and the Ferris Wheel.

So, I became the one guy who would ride anything and everything no questions asked. The girls lined up to hold my shit......Not really but I still looked cool anyway. As I got older I started to realize how completely stupid it is to look at something and think "That is going to make me sick" and then immediately stand in line for 30 minutes to ride it. Either that means I am a little wiser or I'm just getting old. Either way I'll be chewing on turkey legs, eating cotton candy and sausages on a stick while I look at new cars and expensive toys, that I can't afford. Although I somehow manage to find a way to get them anyway. I may get on the Ferris Wheel with my wife or the Scrambler so I can squish my brother, but my days of riding "The Pukenator 3000" are over my friend.No more picking what's safe to eat, and what you know will come back up. No more wondering if I even ate that at all.

So if you happen to be in Perry, GA, at the fair, stop by and say hello. I'll be slamming down caramel apples and virgin daiquiris by the buildings that smell like cow shit. The tricky thing is they all smell like cow shit......See ya there....

Knuckle It....I'm Out!

The First of Many.......

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away......

ok let me stop right there, because let's be honest, we both know that this will never be as good as the film that started with those legendary words.

Remember the first time you watched Star Wars? Immediately after those words you knew you were in for something extraordinary. I was born in 1980 so I did not get to see the first Star Wars in a theatre setting, but I do have a big screen, home theatre system and progressive scan DVD player....And as much as it pains me to say it, this blog will never come close to sparking your excitement or emotions like Star Wars did.

Hopefully I can get a few laughs here and there. Maybe I'll even piss you off, that would be nice too. Just as long as I conjure some emotion I have done my job. Sure, I'm an asshole, but I am trying to get help for that. I always feel as though the world is a better place when everyone sees it through my eyes. Whether that involves music, movies, politics, religion, or any other taboo subject that normally pisses people off. So here's to many long winded ramblings of Mindless Drivel, and lots and lots of cuss words.

Feel free to comment and say whatever you feel, no censorship here. I am firm supporter of cussing to get your point across, some people understand nothing without a cuss word or two. Just be sure to say "Ear Muffs" for those who may sensitive to that kind of material.

This is going to be great, and I lok forward to responding to each and everyone that comments.

Ok, I will conclude my first of many senseless posts with this quote that I somewhat live my life by.

Be who you are and say what you feel because those that mind don't matter and those that matter don't mind - Dr. Seuss
