The thing I hate the most...

I have a variety of things that bug me, or get under my skin.  Or, things that I would call my "pet-peeves".  But there is a small number of things that i hate.  I hate cheaters/adulterers.  I hate any man who ran out on his family and left them with a single mom. That is something I strongly hate, but there are all kinds of little things that ill say, "oh i hate that!" But, they dont really mean anything.  I say i hate people that drive reallllly slow, people that ride my tail going down the road, i hate when someone interrupts me, i hate when i lose at a game.  I really do think about hating plenty of little "child-ish" or "petty" things.  But there really is nothing i just absolutely hate, if i had to pick one thing, it would probably be adultery, or men leaving their famalies.  I just hate that with a passion for who ever has ben cheated on, or the family that has to suffer because of their lack of a father.  

If I had a superpower it would be....

If I could have any superpower, i would be torn between time travel and teleportation.  There are so many things in history that I would love to see, but if i could teleport i could go anywhere and do anything.  I think i would pick the teleporting.  I would love to just go to Italy, Japan, Australia, Russia, China, Jamaica, Indonesia, anywhere i wanted.  All the time.  I could have all the materialistic things i ever thought about. I would never have to pay for gas again, I could go on awesome dates all the time. I would have an unlimited amount of money.  Life would be pretty great if I could teleport on command.  I would never ever get bored again.  I would watch any huge sporting events, or events that are big in the world today.

Like a ton bricks...

It hit me like a ton of bricks, I couldn't believe that I was in the hospital after getting hit with a ton of bricks.  I was walking down the side walk in Beijing and The Great Wall of China fell on me. It was wild.  I couldn't believe Godzilla knocked it down on top of me.  I was rescued by a group of elite Asian Navy Seals, they rushed me to the nearest hospital.  I nearly died, but luckily they saved my life. If they had not rescued me when they did I would be injured, injured bad.  I am so thankful for the love of the Asian Seals and the country of China.  I had some pretty bad scratches (nothing major).  I wasn't able to walk for about 13 minutes then it all came back to me when they gave me some food and minor medical attention.  Then, as if they had not done enough for me already they took me so see Jackie Chan, and he taught me his karate fighting styles.  We teamed up together and Jackie and I defeated Godzilla!



Do not try any of this at home.  This was done by professionals.

I can't believe I was ever intimidated by....

I cant believe I was ever intimidated by getting a new job.  I did landscaping for three years, and i loved it.  When i decided to give up the awesome hours, hard work and great money of the landscaping business, i began working at the pawn shop.  It was worse hours, no hard work, and less pay.  But, it was teaching me a lot.  I was scared that I was not going to be good at pawnbroking or that I was going to make a lot of mistakes.  It turns out I love my job at the pawn shop! It is really a lot of fun, and it is preparing me for a career in the business world.  I plan to be a manager of some sort after college, and this job is really teaching me a lot. I really love going to work every day, im at a job that i never get tired of, because you never know what you are going to see that day.

Fall weather!

Its not only time for football this fall, there is a lot more that I am looking forward to this fall! Fall is the season that men get in touch with their burly man side.  Its that time again for hiking, camping, hunting, fishing, and yes some football too.  But fishing, hunting, and camping have been a tradition with me and my dad and some of his friends for years.  I usually fish every weekend. This past summer, we did a lot of deep sea fishing.  I hope to do a lot of camping this year, I love camping, my dad doesn't enjoy it as much as I do, but my friends and I go a lot.  When we have a break of school we usually stay for about a week and we only eat what we catch.  We camp in a variety of spots, but we mostly camp at Lake Tugaloo.  We fish for trout and cook them ourselves.  I really love camping and I cant wait to do it this year!

Defending Champions...

Its that time of year again, all the anticipation, all the laughter, all the hard work, all the tears, sweat, and blood.  What time of year you ask?

NFL FOOTBALL IS HERE!
This week is the official kickoff of the season with the packers and the saints.  The packers are my favorite team. I love the Green Bay Packers! I can't wait to see them defend the title this season.  They won Super Bowl XLV (45) and they are the second youngest team in the NFL.  They really have some awesome players that play amazing games everytime they step onto the field.  Clay Matthews is one of the best linebackers in the league and Aaron Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in the league. I get to attend a game in Atlanta this year when Rodgers and the Packers face Ryan and the Falcons in the Georgia Dome.  This will be a great game to watch much less be there! One of my favorite players is Randall Cobb #18 for the Packers, he is just a rookie this year so he wont be doing much, but i can't wait to see him play! I think that the Packers are going to do amazing work this season, I honestly hope they will win the Super Bowl again this year.  I cant wait to see a lot of the other teams play and see who makes it to the playoffs this year.  My prediction for this season for the SB is GB over SD.
I think that the San Diego Chargers have had a rough couple of years, but i think Rivers and the Chargers have found their season to make it to the SB, but in my opinion i believe they will be upset by Green Bay this year.  (Maybe I have a biased opinion towards the Packers, but oh well) I really believe they will win the SB again this year!

Sometimes I feel like a...

Sometimes i feel like a Talk Show Host...

I work at a Sporting goods & Pawn shop. So you can only imagine the people I see each day and the things that I hear.  I really love my job, but I would be okay without listening to people babble on and on about their INSANE stories and ALL of their problems.  Don't get me wrong, i care about people and their well-being, but I just do not want to hear the stories they make up.

I mean, how stupid do you think I am to believe that you have special powers and can make an airplane turn away from crashing into your house or that you are receiving a check for $408,000!? I know that you are making this up or you thought of it when you were tripping on some illegal drugs.  It's because they hear this alllll day long! Really, do i have a sign around my neck that says "PLEASE TELL ME EVERYTHING THAT COULD NEVER BE TRUE AND EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE IT!"

There is a couple who comes in every day and they have a new story to tell me every time they come in.  (Which is EVERY SINGLE DAY!!)


Let me just explain to you why i feel like a Talk show host.

Recently, they came in and told me at least 7 different stories.  I found this one to be the most interesting story as well as the most hilarious story I have EVER heard...

First, ill set the scene for you, just imagine this.  They come in extremely dirty like they had been playing in mud all day, they open the door and just stand there for about 30 seconds, staring at me the entire time.  I'm the type of guy that doesn't get awkward, I make situations awkward on purpose.  So they finally walk up to the counter and i greet them with a "how y'all doing today?" They both in synchronization give me a huge smile and say, "very great today!" So i just give them a surprised look trying to avoid what they are about to say.  
They start anyways, "you will never guess what happened to us last night!" And without even waiting for my reply they jump into a story so far fetch that it made me question if i was dreaming or not.
"So, yesterday we went home and the roof was ripped off of our house and replaced with a tarp! can you believe it!? Well its true. And we called the police and we told them who did it." Then the woman speaks up and says, "we didn't see them do it but my powers told me so!" At this point, I'm a little shocked so i just reply with a surprised "Oh! Powers huh?" They both all of a sudden got really serious and said, "you didn't know about my powers?" I just shook my head and they went into a story about the powers she has, "Yes last month I was outside feeding our chickens and a plane started falling out of the sky and i could see the distress in the pilots face. I waved my hands and focused in on the plane and picked it up and set it back on its path. And, that's not even the best part!" At this point I'm trying my hardest not to laugh.  First of all, if a plane is falling, its coming down at a rapid speed, and you can most likely not see the pilots face.  But i let her continue the story "So we just went on about our business and didn't think anything of it." Okay now, I'm freaked out if a plane was falling on my house and my "powers" stopped it.  I will not go on about my business.  But then she said i had to hear the next part, "the very next day at exactly 5:01 PM, the same exact plane came back by and had a banner that said "THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WHAT YOU DID, YOU SAVED LIVES YESTERDAY" and the pilot was waving. I felt pretty good about it, so later I went out to check the mail and there was a blank envelope. I opened it cautiously because it could've been Anthrax. And inside was a check for $408,000 and a note that said, "I hope this covers everything for you and what you did yesterday"

Okay, now I'm officially flipping out. How do you receieve a $408,000 and come in to complain about not having money and needing to pawn jewelry!? I just don't understand the things that these people tell me all day. 

So, now you know why I feel like a Talk Show Host, because I hear the most ridiculous things all day long. I think if i could record these conversations I have with some of these people that I could submit them and make millions as well as take Conan O'brien's job.
