Truth: Speed of Sound

http://youtu.be/neO0eW4eqj8

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.I'm always amazed at the television play by play I see on Facebook and Twitter.  People have this need to give a play by play of who is on American Idol for example. They post every song, every piece of clothing that is worn etc.

Why?  Why the need to share.  They do this with baseball games too. Every freaking pitch is talked about.  Can't we just get a summary?

I mean the dude from Pakistan who was tweeting the Bin Laden mission while it happened was cool.  That's different don't you think than television?

Facebook and Twitter is like sitting at the bar and commenting on everything that comes on the screen.  The people that do this, are those drunks at the bar who spout it all off. They are those people at the movies that need to talk about everything.  They are those people in meetings who comment on every single point as if they are the experts on it all.  You know these people.

The premise is cool; but for the love of God can you post things that are interesting and important? Ok so you like American Idol...can't you comment in summary about the show after? Must we know every single thing?  No we don't.   You won't be left out if you don't post - trust me.

Truth: Don't Panic!

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. So this nut job preacher in California (the land of fruits and nuts), says the end of the world is going to start today (May 21, 2011 and end sometime in October.

Yeah whatever.

Here's the kicker. He's raised $100 million in donations just to spread the word on this.

Are you freaking kidding me? Who are these stupid people that do this? Oh, they are voters. They are the people that drive next to you. They are your neighbors. They are your friends. They are your family.

Come to think of it, that preacher has a point.

...we live in a beautiful world

Truth: Trouble

A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle. How did I get here? This too shall pass they say. Hmmm perhaps it shall, it must. I guess. The reality smacks you like a howling wind. It's ok, that's part life. I get it. Mis-perceptions, misgivings, misunderstandings...it is all a mismatch of truths. That's the truth. They spun a web for me and I lost my head.




http://youtu.be/pHcI9OLYzq0

O no, I see,
I spun a web, it's tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I said,
O no what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
I turned to run,
The thought of all the stupid things I've done,

I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
O no, I never meant to do you harm.

O no I see,

A spider web and it's me in the middle,
So I twist and turn,
Here I am in love in a bubble,

Singing, I never meant to cause you trouble,
I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
Although I never meant to do you harm.

They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

Truth: You Only Live Twice

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.When I was young we were all piled up in the station wagon headed up north.  The music of the am radio from those rides is entrenched in my brain;  Cat Stevens, Don Mclean, Buffalo Springfield and the like.  I'd give anything to relive those rides again, and sometimes when I hear a song I do.  Sometimes when I hear that song I can see myself peering out the window staring at the cornfields flying by.  It was just a couple of hours, but it seemed like days. Time never mattered in a station wagon, it stood still.  I think I'm going to buy one, just to sit in it and stare out the window again.  Summer, you are the love of my life don't ever leave me.

Are we there yet?

Truth: Redneck Diaries

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. I posted on my friend Wendy's page in a response to her being at a ball game. Then low and behold, from the corn fields of Hoosierville, Ricky Bobby comes out of nowhere. A proclaimed democrat no less!

Hockey Dino my account got hacked had to start over. I dont talk sports with chicks


Wendy Oh forgot the taboo Dino....my bad.

Ricky Bobby I don't talk sports with guys that think women don't understand or enjoy sports as much as men. Bet you love some NASCAR!

Hockey Dino Dick I never said that. I said I don't talk sports with chicks. Nascar isnt a sport, but thanks for playing.

Ricky Bobby Seriously ur gonna swear on someone elses wall? By making a statement like that you imply a certain sense of superiority over women. Which clearly is misguided.

Hockey Dino I don't swear.  Wendy is my superior. Seriously. Ask her.

Ricky Bobby You called me a "dick". That said some little radio show in detroit (lower case on purpose because u live in a dead city) does not make you special. Moron!

Ricky Bobby How many listeners you have 14 maybe 15 shut up and go back to ur pretend fame.

Hockey Dino If I called you a "dick" it would have been lower case, not upper case. Rich, Richard, Dick, Ricky, whatever. Detroit is not a dead city. It's beyond that, get a clue. Yet you call me a name. What a guy!

Hockey Dino Your mom listens to me. Nightly.

I don't have a radio show, but thanks for thinking that.

Ricky Bobby What ev jackass detroit ain't too far a trip to educate a retard. Keep that in mind.

Ricky Bobby So what do ya do, tell people that are already watchin a hockey game what's happening? Great job. Get ur degree by mail?

Ricky Bobby And BTW a "your Momma joke"? What are you like 15? Must be that detroit education.

Hockey Dino Thank you for the threat. Appreciate it in print. Your IP address as well. Go home.

Ricky Bobby I didn't threaten you. A lesson could be you and I having a cup of coffee and me explaining to you how rude you were being with charts and graphs.

Hockey Dino Rick lighten up. Geezus.

Ricky Bobby Dino I would suggest the same to you. Why don't ya find another page to post on? This one belongs to someone I actually know. Not a woman I poached hoping to-

Ricky Bobby Get a little bit of tail, poacher!

Hockey Dino You still don't get it.

Ricky Bobby Get what you conceded jerk. Find a new friend. You aren't funny, witty, interesting (except to fill a break in my show), and from what i see online even -

Ricky Bobby A good looking guy. None of those apply to you so take the hint. Stop poaching and make your own friends. Douche!

Ricky Bobby Well don't expect Mr. Anouncer to comment, that would be talking sports with a woman.

Hockey Dino Thanks Rick. You are a nice guy.

Ricky Bobby Oh did Mr. Sportscaster get the hint? That is a stretch of intellect I wouldn't have seen coming. Oh well, someone has to point to D-bags sometimes. So to all the "Poachers" out there make friends with peeps you know, just don't jus pick the pretty girls off ur friends friends list and hope for a hook up someday that is some really lame a$s sh!t. Get over urselves. If ya can't find it on ur own use the net for more than FB and take things in ur own hands. Pathetic lame ass losers....

Hockey Dino Thanks again Rick!

Ricky Bobby For pointing out what has been obvious to Wendy and every other woman you have tried to talk to on fb or anywhere else for ever. Have ur condoms expired yet?

Hockey Dino Yes

Ricky Bobby Good you needed that. Hope you learned something meaningful. By the way 2% of the population likes hockey, 98% couldn't give two turds.

Ricky Bobby BTW I haven't said or done anything that will get me in trouble or kicked from fb. So if that's what ur thankin' me for "poacher" then u r a dumb as a post.

I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did.  i wish I had a radio show with 15 people, that would be really neat.  I'd like a blog with at least 15 viewers too.  By the way, this isnt a picture of Ricky Bobby, but it sure is how I picture him in my head. He's a dead ringer!

Sports: Red Wings Nation 2011

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. You like your Red Wings...yeah I get it. I understand.  But geez, they lost.  Get over it.  You are upset? Then be upset. Stop with the "I'm so proud" of them blah blah.  THEY LOST.  You are proud they lost?  You are proud of their comeback that never panned out?  You are worse than the tv announcers who said "These Red Wings are a force to be reckoned with ".  Give me a break.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHfDgBPNTcM

Now you want to root for Vancouver?  Why?  That's like rooting for freaking Pittsburgh.  You want wanted the Wings to play the Lightning so we could have 10 million shots of him sitting in the press box instead of watching the game? So we could have the two tv announcers go on profusely about everything Yzerman instead of the actual game?  Then we can hear how every player on the other team had Yzerman as their idol?  Now you want the Lightning to win because Yzerman is the GM?  YOU ARE LAME.

STOP WITH THE PROUD GARBAGE.  STOP WITH THE YZERMAN LOVE.  You think Bettman has killed hockey?  Yeah well you arent helping things with this lame homer sports fan slappy garbage.  When your team loses, stop apologizing and relishing in them not winning it all - that's all that matters.

Oh, and they need a goalie.

Have a great day!

Truth: So Sad

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. I know quite a few chicks who are in or have been in abusive relationships.  Physically, mentally, and verbally abusive relationships.

I don't get it.  I've made mention of this before of the cowards who do this and I am doing it again because I know they read this.

Hopefully you'll figure it out and stop doing this. Hopefully you figure it out and teach your children otherwise, so the cycles can be stopped in their tracks.

What is wrong with you people?  Bullies...Abusers...of any sex.  What's the point?  Mental Chihuahuas are amongst us...and they drive, they vote, they build your cars, your houses, they control your money, they teach your kids.  Be vigilante against terrorists? Yeah maybe.  Be more vigilante against your friends and neighbors who hurt people.

Liberty: Politik

It was the best of time, it was the worst of times. Does it really matter who the President is when it comes to taking credit for killing Osama Bin Laden?

The Democrats and all my liberal friends are just going nuts about it. Obama this and Obama that. Change?

Then they are touting how Bush couldn't get it done. What about Clinton?

Then the Bush followers are saying Bush should get credit because he went after him? Absurdity.

Does it really matter? Nothing is going to change. If anything, more war. Brace yourself. Pakistan I predict will get hosed, and India will take over. Pakistan will send their nukes to Iran. Syria will then become more radical and align itself with Iran. Then the money we give to Pakistan will go to pay off Turkey to keep them quiet. I predict.

Peace in the middle east? Never!
