Because my site could be better

There are a lot of websites out there that are a hell of a lot better than mine this is one of them for sure, even the name is better! This is one of the things I would do if I had my own computer . Matt is my oldest friend in good standing, not that he's old just our friendship is. He's a good guy and a great writer. His list (see above) reminds me a lot of something my pal Green Andy would do. I visit both Matthewtobey.com and Greenandy.com whenever I have web access.

Mr.Saturday Night

For the first time in over 10 yrs and outside high school I got up onstage and did my own stand-up material. It was both terrifying and exciting like spinning out in a parking lot fueled by gin and a "What have I got to lose attitude?" I got up there and did it for a crowd of twenty or so and they loved it. Nothing boosts a young, well okay not young, boy's confidence like being a success right out of the gate. Stand up is the most terrifying thing I can think of and I managed to give it the old smack down!
In stand up YOU are the product if they don't laugh they're not laughing at you, you are not funny. If they do laugh, whoa boy! I've heard that making someone laugh is a very aggressive act, eliciting a reaction from someone against their will, and I can defiantly see that.
Now granted I did something like 3 min. but I told one that hit one that missed and I felt great, so I'm counting the evening a success.

As I get older

I'm in a house party filled with drunks and I'm sober. Getting completely blotto and chasing skirts some how looses it's appeal the older I get. In my line of work getting strangers to like you is par for the course. However it somehow loses it's novelty with my advancing age. I used to be mom and take care of the drunks hold hair and such but now the feeling is... grow up. Not that I haven't been in that position as recently as last month, vomiting in a friends toilet,and making an ass out of myself, but even then as I was hurling the contents of my stomach and scorching my throat I thought "What an Asshole."

If only I'd kept up with the piano...

Ever wonder what your life would be like if you'd made that catch for the big game? One man has and is willing to map it out in detail .So cleaver I wish I'd thought of it.

Bad Press

Yesterday I told my girlfriend that I had started a blog."Why would you want to start one of those?"she asked people put the most personal stuff on those, it's like an online diary that total strangers can read." (not a direct quote I'm paraphrasing) While revealing embarrassing personal stories and facts is not my intent, "Chubby kid" (1-25) just kind of slipped out, I don't intend to edit for content. If it's up it's gonna stay up unless it gets to the point where I'll be sued, that just makes sense. So I mulled over why she might be upset with me over starting a blog. It's then that I realized that she's worried about bad press. That I might say something negative and people, whom she's never met would perceive her in a bad light. Makes sense I guess, but that is not my intent.

When hidden Camera Shows attack!

I dont know who thought of it but whomever they are they are brilliant they found a way to boil down America's Funniest Home videos to it's most pure form heroin doesn't feel this good.

The Chubby Kid

All my life I've been the "chubby kid". Not the fat kid, the chubby kid fat enough for others to make fun of you some of the time, if they were strapped for something else to say. They wouldn't lead with "Hey Fat Ass!" but it was an old stand by. Don't get me wrong there were fat kids in my school there was "the Fat Kid" (male) and "Trina Bubble" (female) and I was glad I wasn't them, kids didn't even get to know them enough to even trash them well. there was the imediate quick on the draw "Your fat!" put down. While "Your fat!" is harmful it is hardly scathing, not like the girl that everyone had said put a hot dog in her vagina which had broken off and had to be removed by emergency room doctors. Now that will follow you and create havoc in your life untill your premature death at your own hands,(not that that is what happend to her ...yet)but you get where I'm comming from.

So recently in an attempt to fit a certain "type" for an audition I started dieting, it's nice to take an active roll in looking better, however even after losing 30 lbs.,the Healthy Choice seem to scream from the cart "Hey look it's the chubby kid!" Then thejerks from my elementary school will pour over the isles and say, "Why ya tryin' ta be like us fatty? You'll never be like us!" and I'm almost 30.

Yet another angry white man!

I'm white I'm angry and I have a voice on the internet! Look out world I have nothing to say and a forum to say it it's just like AM radio.
