I'm really enjoying JoeUSer. There are some great writers out here that I really want to get to know. And eventually I would like some of you to get to know me. But I can' t post at the rate that some of you do. And I'm really not into the whole "about me" thing. If you want to know anything about me just read any post of mine. I unabashedly bare my soul in my posts, I don't care who knows what about me. I live my life that way: be yourself, don't be afraid to show someone your ass, learn from others and always seek the emotional "holy grail". A moment of pure honesty. But I like to just throw stuff out there as it comes to mind. The free-form blog.
I'm 6'1" and 250 pounds but when I walk into a room I always fear feel that my fly is open.
I value above most everything a good conversation.
I openly despise uninformed, uneducated people who are so because of laziness. I don't blame the schools, the parents or society. If you don't know what is going on in the world it is because you choose not to. Even a moron can watch the news.
I love porn. Seeing beautiful people enjoying each other is inspiring. If I can't do a gorgeous 20 year old with big, fake boobs then I should be able to watch someone else do it. With my wife. Who I respect and adore.
I think the ultimate compliment is being called intelligent. The ultimate insult is to be a dumbass. It is not always easy to be smart, but you have nowhere to go but up.
I want to be with my children more when I am at work. Sometimes I even cry when I miss their bedtimes when I am traveling. And sometimes when I am with them I forget that...until I go away again.
I have been confronted with my own mortality with two bouts with cancer. But I do not believe in God. Friends and family can't understand why I never asked for God's help. It never occurred to me at my darkest moment. I am secure that I don't believe in religion at all. But I respect those who do.
But I fucking hate those who don't respect that I don't.
The one material possession that I truly want in life is a house on the beach. The unbridled power of the Ocean always serves as a reminder that as people we are small. And its beauty inspires us to climb mountains.
I have nightmares about my own death at least three times a week. But I refuse to take my health seriously.
I wish my 2 year old would never age past this stage. She is at such a great stage in life. She is always glad to see me. I wish my wife was.
I want to be a billionaire just so I can change my career to Philanthropy.
I cast disparaging looks at young people because of the clothes they wear and the music they listen to...forgetting that I used to drive around with my windows open wearing stupid clothes and cranking really bad music when I was that age.
Despite the fact that I am balding and overweight, I somehow think that I could nail that cute waitress with the navel ring and low-cut jeans...if I only wasn't married.
I think that if you can only have one thing from any person, it is their respect.
The biggest disgrace in life is wasted potential.
The second biggest is unrecognized potential.
I hate the concept of entitlement. If you want something earn it.
If you don't get it be careful who you blame.
I talk like a conservative but in many respects my heart bleeds on a regular basis.
I believe in tough love.
I am not sympathetic to the pitiful. I am inspiring to the unmotivated.
I don't care if you like me, but treat me with courtesy. because my first instinct may have been to blow you off. But I chose not to.
I don't have to buy into the notion that I should gladly fork over my hard-earned dollars to programs that I don't believe in or am ineligible for.
Charity can be in many forms, the best is that which is not in your own self-interest. But if that is the only way you can give to someone...that will have to do.
If you work hard enough you will succeed. If you believe in yourself others will also.
If people talk about you, that means that you have been noticed.
I think that nothing says "fuck you" more than living well.
More later.
