Howdy Various Creatures With Typing Apendages,

Well now, I clocked in here while checking email, and jumped a couple of blogs to see what was what. Apparently there has been a rash of chain-blogging lately, normally I do not enjoy such things, but this time the chain actually does exhibit considerable personality. Thus, when asked by my friend gamer_girl15 to join in on the festivities, I actually decided to do so.

So, here are five things about me that you might not know, or that you might have wondered about.

1) Things break around me, to clarify, I'm mostly talking about inanimate objects. Pool cues, kitchen knives, pool tables, plates, doors, walls, windows, my car, screwdrivers, etc...its a long list. Its not because I'm particularly violent, nor because I'm not careful. My body is fairly powerfully built, toss in bad luck or not paying attention, and its really easy for me to snap a pool stick I have in my hand in half, or to knock a buddy too hard and send him through a wall.

2) I cuss seldomly, and around women, next to none.

3) I cannot dance. I can pretend I know how, but only for short periods of time and more formal dances.

4) I was a vegetarian for a number of years, and I still do not eat all that much meat.

5) I have been asked if I am gay due to
A: Being too nice to women to be straight
B: Being too good of cook to be straight
C: Being too intelligent to be straight

Normally my answer is followed by the lovely question of "Then why are you single?"

Anyways, hope one of those was entertaining to you, I think I'm supposed to call out some number of people to do this now...orkhammer, champ, hokies, david (kinda scared what he could write), smolle, some people, somewhere, on the side of my blog...start writing.

~

Not much to say otherwise I guess, going to get my blood drawn tomorrow for a liver test, probably going to take off sometime afterwards for a break from life. I need a passport, going to go to Canada with some buddies sometime, I'd like to be able to get back in the States. Anyways, starting to get tired, when on a really, really, long walk today, threw some boulders too.

See ya'll later, might make the blog I was thinking of writing...sometime later.

2 and 3 are the same for me, but how is someone gay just because they are smart or a good cook? People will be accusing me of being gay next.

Are you homosexual?... People think i'm gay Maybe its because people get that Vibe off me... (I'm not gay
Posted Mar 28, 2008 6:40 am PT
I hate it when people think guys are gay cause they cook I'm practically a vegetarian cause I hardly eat meat usually pasta or noodles that I make myself

My gods sir, we are too damn similar....all the same applies to me except for number 4. I'm an omnivore.
Posted Mar 28, 2008 9:10 am PT
This is not going to sound good but...what does seldomly mean?
Posted Mar 28, 2008 9:44 am PT
It appears I have been called out.....

2 and 3 could describe me pretty well. Unfortunately I've been noticing some vulgar words creeping into my vernacular as of late. Going to have to put a stop to that. As for dancing.....let's just say I'm terrible at it.

And to answer PJ24, seldom means not very often, rare.

"5) I have been asked if I am gay due to
A: Being too nice to women to be straight
B: Being too good of cook to be straight
C: Being too intelligent to be straight "

if those things make you gay I know alot of gay people

I would make a bigger post, but I'm on a LAN and the interweb connection is kinda random

I particularly like the fact that you don't curse, because cursing is wrong. it is mega **** wrong. ****!!! What the ****??? I just cursed. *** ** * ****!!!!!

Howdy John.

I cuss, but never the current strong words, such as the one that begins with the 6th letter of the alphabet.

My long-time friend wonders whether I'm gay He once mentioned the fact that I've never had a girlfriend, to which I replied, "I've never had a boyfriend either."

Boulders?

*sigh* That makes twice... oh well.

I can't cook at all... I guess that only makes me 1/3 straight... don't tell my wife.
Posted Mar 28, 2008 9:40 pm PT
that was a fun read, but whats an orkhammer? =P
Posted Mar 30, 2008 1:51 am PT
How does one pretend he can dance ?
I can't wait to find that one out
Posted Mar 30, 2008 11:01 am PT
an orkhammer is a big red hammer made out of scrap bits of metal that smahes stuff better than any other hammer before it, or it is a guy called orkhammer, who is quite intelligent, and commented just before you.

@ majorflyswat - Indeed, it seems a bit much to assume homosexuality, but I'm guessing that the people asking me were joking, they are friends after all.

@ David - Well, you know, the things people know about you are scary enough...some things you don't know aren't meant to be known.

@ aaronmullan - Depends, are you coming on to me? I'd have to say that I am fairly certain I'm straight.

@ Princess-Peach - I actually had a bit of meat tonight for dinner, had to help friends make steak...I swear, I've seen people here burn water and freeze fire.

@ Champ - Indeed, we do seem to have a few similarities, and I'm an omnivore nowadays, I just tend to find pasta on my plate allot.

@ PJ - Yep, it means not often.

@ Hokies - Yes sir, you have been called out. Better watch the language or I'll have to come clean your mouth out, and I don't use soap, I use bleach and ammonia. You can't be much worse a dancer than ol' John my friend, I normally hold myself while dancing like its inspection at boot camp.

@ Essi - Well, perhaps you have lots of gay friends...and might be a bit questionable yourself.

@ KoK - I love you man, you just showed that not all gay people are nice, polite, charming, and good cooks.

@ Alex - Howdy is a fun word isn't it? Every time you want to cuss, yell howdy instead.

I've definitely gone after my share of women here, but as one friend so eloquently put it, "John's single because he's too nice, the women here all want jackasses." I haven't gone after any guys though.

Boulders...you know, big rocks? Normally over a foot across...or in this case, about two feet across. Picked 'em up, threw them through the air...funny thing was, I wasn't even mad at the time.

@ Allicrombie & Finch ( ) - Danke, and an Orkhammer tends to be big, pointy, and according to the posting above you, 2/3 curvy.

@ smolle - Its simple, most formalish dancing revolves around revolving. Therefore, you take your partner in hand, lead her in circles while displaying utmost confidence in yourself and your movements, and keeping eye contact with her (a little smile helps)...the eye contact keeps her from noticing some of your "less-than-graceful" movements.

Hmm, what the howdy?
Nah, I use the D words mostly

Yeah, I know boulders. I was thinking they were a bit bigger. like shoulder to opposite hand. That was the picture i was getting
Posted Apr 1, 2008 6:53 am PT
Dagnabbit!

I could have said rocks, but that brings to mind me throwing little pebbles.
Posted Apr 1, 2008 8:37 pm PT
Huh, I forgot about that one.

Hmm, true, there just aren't enough words to describe different rock sizes. Perhaps we should invent some....

Bould: What you threw.
Boulder: What I thought.
Bouldest: Bigger than a person.

Posted Apr 1, 2008 9:43 pm PT
that just makes me think of varying degrees of baldness..
Posted Apr 2, 2008 5:19 am PT
Hey! Being stuck in Canada isn't that bad! Interesting stuff! I had no idea stuff likes to break around you
Posted Apr 2, 2008 12:35 pm PT
@ Alex - Indeed, "I went out tossing boulds around that day." Nice ring to it.

You'd really like the entertainment of choice today...fisticuffs with a tree...

@ David -

@ gamer_girl15 - Ah, but the question is...would Canadians, such as yourself, really want me to be stuck in Canada? What if I break it? And it is questionable if the stuff enjoys breaking around me, but it definitely does so regardless.

I did respond to your tag, by the way... I just disguised it in case anyone saw the "5 Things I'm Being Forced To Say, and I Get To Tag People and Force Them To Say Stuff Too" and avoided it (with the reasoning being, if I have to tag someone, I may tag them). I may have gone a bit overboard, though...

Just look for refreshments.
Posted Apr 2, 2008 8:33 pm PT
Hmm, depends, was your shadow standing on the tree?.....
Posted Apr 2, 2008 10:58 pm PT
*Has been entertained*
Grats, you get a cookie.
"or to knock a buddy too hard and send him through a wall. "
Posted Apr 5, 2008 10:28 pm PT
@ orkhammer - Yeah, I've been trying to get to blogs, but I've been a tad more busy than I would like to be...one of my teachers...lets just say that I will probably try to get him fired...thats how good he is.

I WILL get there...soon.

@ Alex - Nope.

@ icy-stars - Yay Cookie!
Posted Apr 7, 2008 1:37 am PT
Ahh, it's just that would have been shadow boxing.
