I was just thinking how thankful I am for such a simple thing as “cut & paste” so I thought I would write a quick blog about things that I am really thankful for.  Keep this page on your horizon as I will continue to add to it…well why not forever!  They are obviously in no specific order (well the first few are I think because I could not be the nerd that I am today without these few at the start of the list)…ooh I am going to put the date on it that it was added also.  And yes I think I have done one of these lists before and could find it but now I am going to do it right and you are gonna come back to it bi monthly! Cut & Paste

1. Cut & Paste
2. Firefox
3. Jesus (yes it’s kind ofweird to put cut and paste and firefox before the Lord but dood…I told you there was no order!
4. R. Kelly - Let me explain.  I was blastin’ R.Kelly in my apartment and the bass pissed off the neighbor enough to come bang on my door.  I opened it to hear a 5ft 1in 100lb tiny blond girl berate me with cuss words requesting me to lower my volume.  When I laughed at her and slammed the door in her face without saying anything, the relationship was sealed and we soon began arguing, fighting, stabbing, calls to 911, and what every loving relationship should have, sex.  You know where I am going.  I am blessed 15 years later to have that girl as my very good friend and mommy to my wonderful baby boy.  Now if we can just work sex back into the relationship, things would be perfect!
5. Music - all of my moods, senses, moments must have music to be complete
6. Photography
7. Sex - The Lord made something soooo awesome…everything about it, and yes I don’t like the rules he set with gettin’ it, but hey, it’s his invention, he can set whatever rules he wants!

 

Terri at TerriTerri.com did not tag me so I broke the meme rules with one of those memes and tagged myself.  You know the kind… list seven random, weird, odd, silly, you-name-it kind of things that your readers might not know about you.

Seriously. Is there anything I haven’t mentioned here on this blog? I think you guys know it all, short of the amount of hair grows in my ears or how many girlfriends I go through in a year.  (No, I’m not going to elaborate. A guy has to maintain a little mystery….)

There were, of course, some meme rules and such, but you know I’m wprse than Terri about following those kinds of rules. So I thought I’d mix it up a bit and throw in a prize just steal the post.

You ever notice how if someone is giving you bad customer service on the phone, they tend to get very nice if you stop mid sentence and ask their name.  Try it sometime (unless of course you are talking to the food stamp office or you are a man calling the child support division…neither of them with EVER lose their jobs so they just dont give a shit!).

I have listened to this song a hundred times before I read the words today and I was surely crying by the end because it reminded me of when my mom would violently cry for my dad to stop beating us. She knew that she was next but she would still do anything to get him to stop, even sacrifice herself which she did weekly.I had my share of stupid relationship arguments growing up, and I’ve dated some crazy chicks. I’ve had girls smash my car, key my car, kick my windows in the house and eventually had a girl stab me…but no girl has ever done enough for me to raise a hand to her.

Guys, don’t hit your girl, don’t even disrespect your girl with a simple “bitch” or any other hurtful words…don’t let your kids hear those words and surely don’t hit your kids…no real man hurts the people that love him most.

Listen to me!!!  This is coming from an original Napster downloader…ME, PAUL, not some spammer…I get all of my music from a site called MP3fiesta.com.  Im serious, this is not me trying to sell you something…I have no idea how they do it and if YOU DO I’m not sure I want to know so shut up!  I would not have believed it was even for real if I wouldn’t have been willing to throw away $20 as well as all my credit info but this is LEGIT!  It’s FOR REAL and I’m telling you this because I have been with them for like 6 months now and I download a new CD at least once a month (not a lot of time for music anymore so my money just sits in my acct until I want something).

So here is the scoop…dont just go over to that URL…click on my URL here because I get a few bucks added to my acct if you end up signing up.  Oh here is the kicker…most songs are only 10 cents a piece and full CDs are less than $2.00!!!  Not CRAP…brand new stuff.

Please consider me the US ARMY, “don’t ask, don’t tell”…just click here if you are interested in finding out more.

Have you ever heard a song on a new CD and just hit the repeat button in your car and listened to a car over…and over…and over…for days!  Me too!  Ok so what I am getting at is that I am listening to my Amos Lee CD again and if you have not followed me here you might not have known that I am in love with this CD.  But guess what?  You dont even have to read my blog to know what music I am listening to.  There is a tiny piece of software and website called Last.FM that downloads right into my Windows Media Player or iTunes and reports back to the web exactly what music I am listening to right now and recently.  After a few months it really will show people your favorite type of music.  NO I did not get any money to plug lastfm but it is cool to click over there and see what my friends are listnin to (and yes I dont have any friends yet so get over there).

Here is me:  http://www.last.fm/user/ahptical

I have always been a photography nut, but over the past 6 months I have really taken to shooting models, so I think I might marry my model shoots with my blog because I have an idea for a shoot this evening that I should probably talk about.  Yes, I am pretty sure very soon on this very blog you will see a photo segment called, “I did your make up and I’m not even gay”

Are you sick of IE or Firefox (or any app for that matter) freezing up and shutting down only to get Microsofts digital “sticking out of their tongue” in the form of the error [big brother snooping] window popping up?

Me too!  Are you as dumb as me and for 4 years watched that dumb XP window pop open and never knew you could disable it?  Well follow me…it will take you all of 15 seconds!!!

These steps describe how to disable error reporting by Windows XP.

Open Control Panel

Click on Performance and Maintenance.

Click on System.

Then click on the Advanced tab

Click on the error-reporting button on the bottom of the windows.

Select Disable error reporting.

Click OK

Click OK

Ok so my post will start out again by saying sorry for not writing and again it also says that the only reason I am writing is that I was inspired by the only married woman that I have a crush on (ok maybe not the ONLY on…but the only one in Minnesota).  Terri wrote this cool post about 5 songs she is admitting to the world that she likes and included the videos for us…which I will not blatantly rip off almost exactly like she did!

Ironically my list also starts with an 80’s country song but thank the good Lord mine has almost nothing to do with Shelly West ( I say almost because as scary as it is, Terri’s video on youtube came from the same exact person I found mine from…that guyyyyyy needs to travel more!!!).

It was sooooo played out that I almost dont wanna mention it, but I am white indeed and I do have my ‘white guy card’ which allows me to dance badly and continue to like old played out hip hop songs. Heyyyyyy must be da monayyyy

Ok I was 8 years old…but now 30 years later…I still wanna drive that car, get all those girls and be as cool as Smokey was.

It was the first on Mtv but there is something about your first that you will never forget.

NOOOO, not because he is married to the hottest girl ever created…i just dig the song and wish I even had ANY girl I could sing it too…and yes she would still tell me how gay I am for singing it to her…and then we would frolic and wrestle and make love passionately (only if she was my wife of course…no sex before marriage!!).
