Do any of find this interesting?

Well do ya?!

The holidays aren't here yet, but . . .

You Are Comet

A total daredevil, you're the reindeer with an edge! Why You're Naughty: You almost gave Santa a heart attack when you took him sky diving Why You're Nice: You always make sure the sleigh is going warp speed

Which of Santa's Reindeer Are You?

Halloween hasn't been born yet and still the stores have Christmas decor all about. Why not me?

World Series Champs and Violence

What a place to be, champions in baseball and crime. And to think I once considered moving to St. Louis!

Death of a computer.

I don't think I agree with that company's outlook. I can't see smart phones being utilized at school instead of a PC, or even a laptop. The PC's may be going the way of the dinosaur, but I believe that the laptop and notebook will be here to stay. What do you think?

Bored

I'm sitting in my classroom and have finished working on my student's papers. I now have nothing to do, and nothing to write about.

Its good to have a day like this because some days can be full of positive and negative excitement. Right now I'm just here.

Sure there are some other, more productive things that I can think of if I put my mind to it, but with the rain, and the quiet, I'm taking a little time to be thankful.

Thankful that I don't hear bullets or mortar flying over the building.

Thankful that my lunch box is in my drawer full of food.

Thankful that my wife and kids are somewhere being okay.

Thankful that I can type and see what I'm typing at the same time.

I'll never get accused of not stopping to smell the roses.

This is sure to cause controversy, but will we see the debates?

What do you think? Will you see it?

Poll

Well I didn't have time to find a code to put a poll on this blog, so I will just ask a question to all of you who read here(lurkers are invited to answer).

Should I start a myspace webpage?

I'm thinking about it because there are more people there and it seems to get lots of hits. The downside is that I have two(heh) blogs right now and maintaining them can be fun, but time consuming. What think ye?

New Meme

12. Rufus appears out of nowhere with a time-traveling phone booth. You can go anytime in the PAST. What time are you traveling to and what are you going to do when you get there?

First, I would not take that drug he offered me. Secondly, I'd call the police to have him committed.

Scariest movie ever?

When is was about seven or eight, my elementary school took us to see this movie. Before this movie, I was not afraid of the dark, or had any childhood fears. I was brave. I was adventurous. After watching this movie, I was scarred for life! I can still see that ladies face and it has been almost 25 years! Can I sue? What were those teachers thinking?

What, in your opinion, is the scariest movie ever and why?

New Joke!

Little Leroy came into the kitchen where his mother was making dinner.
His birthday was coming up and he thought this was a good time to tell his
Mother what he wanted.

"Mom, I want a bike for my birthday." Little Leroy was a bit of a
troublemaker He had gotten into trouble at school and at home.

Leroy's mother asked him if he thought he deserved to get a bike for
his birthday. "Of course", he said.

Leroy's mother, being a Christian woman, wanted him to reflect on his
behavior over the last year. "Go to your room , Leroy, and think about
how you have behaved this year. Then write a letter to God and tell him
why you deserve a bike for your birthday."

Little Leroy stomped up the steps to his room and sat down to write
God a letter.

Letter 1
Dear God, I have been a very good boy this year and I would like a
bike
for my birthday. I want a red one.
Your friend, Leroy.

Leroy knew that it was not true. He had not been a good boy this year,
so
he tore it up and started over.

Letter 2
Dear God, I have been an OK boy this year. I still would like a bike
for
my birthday. Leroy. Leroy knew he could not send this letter to God
either. So, Leroy wrote a third letter.

Letter 3
Dear God, I know I haven't been a good boy this year. I am very sorry.
I
will be a good boy if you just send me a bike for my birthday. Please!
Thank you, Leroy.

Leroy knew that it was not true. By now he was very upset. He went
downstairs and told his mother that he needed to go to
church.

She thought her plan had worked.

" Just be home for dinner," she told him. Leroy walked down the
street
to
the church on the corner.

He went to the altar. Leroy looked around to see if anyone was looking
as
he bent down and picked up a statue of the Virgin Mary.

He slipped it up under his shirt and ran out the church going back
home. He ran to his room and shut the door. Leroy began to write his
letter to God.

Letter 4
Dear God,

I got your mama.

If you want to see her again, send the bike.

Signed, You know who.

October 14

is my birthday! I will be 31 years young. Officially in my 30's. I wonder if I will have a middle age crisis.

Looking back over the years, I've friggin' changed a lot. I no longer drink(if you can believe that), I barely play sports(if you can believe that), and I'm more reclusive than I used to(definitely possible).

Also, I cuss more(well, cuss people out more than using it in regular conversation), and I care less about the feelings of others(not sure if a positive or negative).

All I know is that I'm definitely changing.

Rock of ages

Wow! How many of you ladies would like to have something like this on your hand?

Hey Daddy

Check out this new site. It will be updated weekly.

Dismiss this mess!

This type of activity should be addressed in a non-partisan fashion. This guy is obviously sick, and anyone who condoned his behavior should be removed from immediately.

Life's too short

I woke up this morning with a burning sensation in my belly. It wasn't the gumbo from the previous night, but something telling me that I had allowed myself to become very negative because there are so many things going on in my life right now.

I am not, and have never been, a negative person.

That burning in my stomach was spiritual hunger for more positivity in my life.

And when positivity isn't around me, then I have to cook it and feed it to myself.

Everyday is a chance to see new mercies, and I receive the fact that I am able to get up out my bed in my own place and go to my job without any sickness, disease, watching my back, wondering if I'm going to be able to eat, etc. I am truly blessed, and the best way to fight negativity is with positivity. So I will be starting another blog that I have been mulling over for a year and trying to get it to look professional. Some of the best eateries in the world are "hole in the wall" type joints. Mechanics drive the ugliest cars, but you never see them broken down. I am not visually gifted, but I will use some of my gifts when I open this blog which will be coming within the next few days. Holla peace.

Better than expected.
