Why isn't EVERY High School doing this?

It's been some years since I sat in a High School classroom, about seven and a half to be exact.

Throughout those 3.5 years, I was never one of the popular ones, never one of the "dirty ones", never the nerd, never the jock or any of those stereotypes.

I was what you would call a "floater", I would talk to everyone as long as they weren't jerks, but I've seen a lot of people from those groups separate themselves from others for stupid differences. They didn't like the way people dressed, who they hung out with, or even something as stupid as not partying every weekend.

No matter what, there will always be these people who have to distance themselves from others for such ridiculous, stupid reasons, and not take the time to really get to know people.

MTV has this show called if you really knew me. I finally had a chance to watch this show and I won't lie, it got me teary eyed.

It made me think of how high school was for me and other people I knew who had a rough time with others. I wish I could go back in time and start something like this show, but all we can really do now is learn from this show, our mistakes and educate younger people on why differences such as race, hair, beliefs, friends, music don't matter and how we need to be able to say "hello" with a smile to someone who may not be our best friend, but who may need that simple, honest gesture to help make their day better.

Timing is everything

I could go on a rant about timing leading to the perfect opportunity for a better life, job, relationship, etc.

But no, I'm a huge Randy Orton fan, and if there's one thing this guy is good at in the ring, it's timing.



I know it's scripted, but it's like an actor messing up his lines if it doesn't look good.

UFC Heavyweight Champion, Brock Lesnar "messed up a line" and it still makes me cringe



obviously that did nothing to stop his career if you know anything at all of Brock Lesnar

Thanksgiving has come and gone, I'm stuffed. Hope yours was good and now we can look forward to Halloween :D

Until next time, Keep it rockin'

The coldest of hearts can even be warmed

I don't know about you, but I love the show Undercover Boss. If you haven't heard of it, it's a show where usually a CEO of a company goes undercover to work along side the unsung heroes at the bottom of the totem pole of the company they run.

Along the way they learn the struggles both in and out of the job some of these people face everyday and in the end, they make some pretty big changes to the company and for the employees they got to know.

It's definitely an emotional roller coaster of a show that you should definitely check out.

The next time you think a CEO, COO, or evil Mad Scientist can't ever put themselves in your shoes, think again.

8-Bit, Yo!

They could release this game and it would be a best seller amongst the tanned, Ed Hardy lovers, although I think some of them would have problems figuring out the controls.

Got High Score Bro, let's fist pump!

Early education is the key

No lies, I've been a professional wrestling fan since I was 4 years old. My oldest sister got me into it, and since then there's been no looking back. However, the first thing my sister made sure to do was to educate me on how it was scripted and that the people I was watching, who seemed larger than life (still do) were not really fighting and did not hate each other.

This guy though, as well as many others who I know personally, believe in it a bit too much.




But I guess, at least he has something to believe in?

Then there's the stereotypical dumbasses who make me embarrassed to call myself a fan, but proud to see that Ring of Honor wrestler, Austin Aries, can take care of himself even when he's not scripted to do so.

Have a laugh with this one.



hahahaha, that is visual gold.

Ode to an amazing Artist and Woman

My mom is on facebook and has albums up of old photos that I just had to look at. They all had me teary eyed, whether it was from laughing at the old styles and ways or just from old memories that were amazing and have slipped my mind until seeing that again.

I came across another one of her albums and I really paid attention I think for the first time since I was 6 or so to what an amazing artist she really is. She has been oil painting for a long time since before she had me or my sisters and she still does it to this day which I think is just remarkable.

She's very modest about what she does and has thought of putting them in galleries when the offer was there but then thought, "It's not good enough" (hmmm so that's where I get it from) but I can tell you it's too good for any ol' gallery.

Here's some of her work that I would like to share with you.

















Those are just a few samples of her work.

An amazing talent from an amazing woman who has put up with a lot, and overcame it without ever raising her fists or her voice, yes, it can be done.

Until Next Time, Keep It Rockin' :)

We all can relate

If there was ever a time you wanted to know a little bit more about me.

Just watch this. (For a mature audience only, hey, you've been fairly warned)



R.I.P. George Carlin, you gave me the best education on life
