THE Resolution

Where to start my next blog? That’s the question I’ve been asking myself since November 19th, 2009.


It was a chilly evening and my wife was yelling at me because it was past my prescribed bed time of 2:00am. Earlier that same day (and strangely enough) my local doctor (Dr. Ms. Wamp®) had just written me my newest prescription….it went something like this….

“I’m whinny and you don’t appreciate me or everything I do for you, I get cold easy, I can’t fall asleep without your “cuddles”, and…..oh yeah! You can be a real pain when you don’t get at least ten sleep hrs per day, and…oh yeah I kind of….*cough*….*cough*…. like you”.

I know right….“Doctors!!”…..what do they know anyway? They don’t even speak the English language…..


Warning – Side Note


I mean….H E L L O…..I’m fluent in 99.9% of any and EVERY language which matter in my world. For those of you who didn’t know- I’m fluent in the following languages…..


  • English (United States of America)


  • MAN 2.0 (formally known as MAN 3.0 or just simply MAN to those who speak fluently)
    • Upgraded from MAN 3.0 in 2001
    • Notable Improvements from 3.0 to 2.0 include the following
      • The Introduction of UNIVERSAL WORDS - any words which previously had a correlation index ≥ 0.000000000000001% were consolidated.
        • UNIVERSAL WORDS have been deemed “REVOLUTIONARY” by Maxim Magazine’s entire staff.
        • Playboy Magazine’s Mr. Heffner was quoted as saying – “……Advances in Science and Technology have allowed us to hit the mythical 2 - I never in my wildest dreams thought my grandchildren would speak anything other than 3 ”.


  • Grunt Noises


  • Cave Time V.3/21/1982
    • This is the only Theory Based Language know to exist. Strangely enough, the origin of this language is unknown; hence there have never been a documented real life practice examples to reference here.


  • Spanglish
    • Un Pequeño English perro Grande Mexican
THE Resolution


I was/am labeled by society (just recently self proclaimed in 2003) as a detailed orientated guy – yet writing my first blog entry on Thursday, November 19th, 2009 made me realize I’m NOT….at least not detailed orientated in the important life areas.


My initial reaction was fear – and Missy Elliott’s “Get Your Freak On” song was playing in the back of my head….or should I say these 3 lines of the song were on auto repeat, and nothing could be done about it. .


“Quuiiieeet!!!
What? Shh, hush your mouth,
Silence before I spit it out *insert hawking a luegy sound effect*……”

Secretly, I like weird stuff and weird stuff always seems to make me laugh. I would consider only knowing these 3 lines of this entire song WEIRD. But it’s the weirdness factor which brings a smile to my face. Please note – it also brings a smile to my wife’s face when I sing these 3 lines out loud while we’re together….hand gestures and sound effects included.


Back to da point……


I thrive on positive energy, comments, hand gestures, butt slaps, motivating speeches, Jimmy V, smiles, laughter from the inner dwellings of someone’s stomach, Bear Grylls reruns, Mint Chocoloate Chip Ice Cream (pint size), Chap Stick, and genuine excitement from people.


Take some time…anytime…and listen to the people around you. What they say, how they say it, hand gestures, eyes, tones, interest level, heart beats, and check the color of their socks.
Don’t focus on – but note how much negativity, unconstructiveness, pessimism, and just plan bitching exist on the planet earth……and you know what – IT SUCKS (ps…that was just a negative comment….if anyone was wondering).


The easy way out is to delve deeper into the aforementioned task. Most individual would take the above statement and think – “Duh dude” – then poke there friend and say – “this guys a retard right?”.  Don't do that.....


Negativity breeds Negativity (i.e. this is a real life example of MAN 2.0)


To meet deadlines (both personal and…well….personal) I need to wrap this up.


My New Year’s Resolutionbe positive.


Counter negativity with positivity – problems with solutions – bad times with good times – bad vibes with a butt slap – stress with balance –over commitment with personal commitment - and finally….The Finger with a Thumbs Up and a Wink.
