Hey people, I had a unwelcome event happen today. Around 8:30am this morning the building next door caught on fire and we were evacuated as a precaution.

Unfortunately I had to go to work and didn't know whether or not my building would be damage. Well the firefighters did a great job and got it all under control pretty fast and it seems that only that building was burnt. (sorry no pictures.)

Kinda has gotten me thinking. Another apartment on the same block as mine caught on fire around the middle of this year which I watched from my window. Kinda makes me nervous.

well other than that not much going on around here. Just playing video games and being bored ;) Well try and stay safe out there and do something nice for someone.

A friend sent me this video. I thought it was cute, so I thought I share it here.

something I found at work. interesting

2009-02-13T18:29:00.005-06:00

I found this singing caveman where I work and thought it was interesting. Unfortunately I don't have anyone to give it to :(

So if any of you ladies out there see one on valentine's day just smile even if you don't like it.

The heart he's holding says "Me want you"

Have a good Valentine's day

I found this song on Youtube and even I think it is beautiful. Their harmony is even more beautiful.

This is a copied email a friend sent me. thought I'd share it with everyone.

How is YOUR day going?

First you had trouble getting out of bed .

You had a stiff neck.

You washed your hair and couldn't do a thing with it.

You felt like you had a hangover and you weren't even drinking last night.

Your new diet really doesn't seem to be working out.

You pulled a muscle when you tried to exercise

Your new hat looked better on you at the store.

The boss chewed you out at work.

You got caught in the rain at lunchtime.

Then the lunch you had didn't seem to agree with you.

You feel trapped.

Uninvited guests showed up at dinnertime.

On top of that you think you're coming down with the flu.

And finally, you're alone in the house at night when you think you hear a noise in the basement.

MAYBE TOMORROW WILL BE BETTER!!

Thought for the Day

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or play with it, Just pee on it and walk away.

Time waits for no one.

Lately I've been thinking about my life. I think about mistakes in my life that I wish I could get a second chance. One is with my son. When my girlfriend at the time said she was pregnant I had doubts that the child was mine. She also lied to me on several occasion about being with other guys while we were going out. So the doubts I had were hard to get around, but I did ask her to marry me besides what I had thought. simply because even if the child wasn't mine I wanted to still give our relationship a chance. she did say yes, but after a few months things started back up. I never saw her all that much and she tried to steal the money that I had put down on the rings and that was the last straw. I was going to break it off, but she beat me to it and broke up with me a few week later.

Well she was pregnant and she had a boy on December 3 1990. After I found out he was born I tried to be apart of his life, but she seem to not want me around. The last time I saw my son was when he was 5 years old. I didn't get a chance to see his first steps or his first words. I didn't get a chance to see him grow up. Now he's 17 years old soon to be 18. I have sent him emails, but I guess he doesn't want me in his life as much as his mother says or he's just very busy.

The reason I posted this is because time waits for no one. The mistakes we make in our lives effect not only us, but others we grow up with and our children. As we watch children grow we start realizing that if we don't spend time with our own children we lose out on their lives and before we know it they are all grown up and have lives and families of their own.

I've become to admire some people that I've never met before. Some of them are 20 years younger then me and are just starting their lives. I only know what I've seen online which really isn't alot when it comes to getting know someone. A few of them are around my sons age. others are older. These woman are between the ages of 18 and 25. I've grown to admire them because they have accomplished so much in their lives that I could only dream of doing when I was their age.

This last video is on youtube, but embedding is disabled so I'll just give you a link.

I hope its not to late for a second chance.

interesting blogs

2008-07-24T08:13:00.005-05:00

Well I was just looking through the blogs around here and found two I thought were rather interesting. I just find them interesting and good reads. I'm sure I'll find more, but don't have the time at the moment to add them.

I just find them interesting reads thats all. The blogs are well done, not like mine which is rather basic. Well thats all for now got to get ready for work.

Take care and remember to have fun in life, we only get one chance at life so live life to its fullest.

Oh wanted to add. If the one saying she needs to lose weight. You are young your weight will fluctuate a lot at your age. Just watch what you eat and eat in moderation and exercise and you should be fine.

Mystonline:URULive

2008-02-05T20:41:00.000-06:00

I will be cross posting this on other sites(nothing better to do since I'm losing the only MMO I like to play)

Mystonline: URULive has been cancelled again. February 4th, 2008. Gametap the publisher anounced that it would be removed in sixty days, Of the game they had on thier service it was the first MMO on gametap, accually it was the only MMO. It wasn't like all the other MMO's out there.

It was better, but it was better in a different way. It alowed you to explore more freely then any other MMO todate. Todate (as far as I know) most games that are made are basicly hack and slash your way to the top. You kill monsters or eachother to get more powerfull items and to get your avatar more powerfull. Most call this the treadmill effect. Its the only way those games can keep people in them.

This kind of gameplay may be fun for some, but I'm sure there are more people out there that enjoy the community more then just running around killing things. Why can't we as gamers come together and let the developers of these games know we want more the just mindless violence.

I started playing EQ1 when it was still in beta and continued for 5 years after. Then came EQ2 which I also beta tested along with atleast 3 of its expansions. I even had a crack at WOW for about 3 months, but one thing I noticed was that all of them were basicly the same. You create an avatar and from that point your whole world revolved around killing stuff just to get stronger.

There was no adventure nor story, all anyone cared about was getting that next level or that next shiney piece of armor or sword.

Myst and everything that followed it were great adventure games. Did they have violence, well somewhat. IMO there was some suggestive violence in some of them, but it was alot less then the games of today.

Now the only adventure MMO todate Mystonline: URULive (as I said that I know of) is being put to bed. I guess that most people would rather just kill stuff then accually explore or even follow a good story.

It's sad that our society is so obsessed with violent games. It's no wonder that most game developers are cashing in on it.

It was fun while it lasted though and atleast Gametap gave Mystonline a chance, but I guess it was never meant to be. Maybe some day someone will create another MMO based more on exploration and discovery then hack and slash.

My Dream Journal

2006-07-18T22:43:00.000-05:00

I know this may be a strange place to put a dream journal, but some of my dreams are kinda strange. So I thought that I would post 5 dreams I've had that I remember vividly.

Dream 1: It was the first dream that I accually remembered completely. It starts off the same everytime. I see a very old man in a highback old fashion whicker wheelchair. You know the ones with the little wheels on the back big wheels in the middle. The man was dress somewhat nice and had a plaid red blanket on his lap. He was sitting in a wide open area that looked like concrete. kinda like a parking lot. Off in the distance there was a city skyline. There were lots of clouds and the sky was kinda red and orange mixed. simular to fire. Even the building in the skyline seemed destroyed or in ruins. After a bit I saw small black dots moving in the distance, as they got bigger(heres the wierd part) I relized they were large(elephant size) bats. On these bats were for a lack of a better animal monkeys.(and know I didnt watch wizard of oz before bed)

As they got closer they flew around and landed near the man. the man turns towards them and one of the monkeys gets off his bat and I wake up.

Well thats the first one. strange huh.

Dream 2: well dream 2 was a tad more calm. It starts I see a young man(in the 20tys) and a young woman. They are talking and smiling. It kinda skips ahead and they are getting married. I can tell by they clothes and cars that its possibley in the 40tys or 50tys. After the wedding is over it skips ahead again to the man and woman in the back yard having a barbaque with friends and thier children. Its seems rather calm and well nice. The weather is beautiful and then 2 men in black walk up to the man and take him away. one thing that struck me is that none of the others seems to notice. Then I wake up when the men in black and the man get close to my point of view.

Dream 3: Now this one is very strange still trying to figure out most of it. It starts preaty much the same. I'm really not sure what I'm thinking about when it starts, but it makes me feel afraid and very nervious. also its from my point of view not from an observers point of view. which is what the others are.
I'm in some type of building. maybe a hospital or school. Its dark with what seems like moon light coming through the windows and cracks around the room. I very rarely get out of the first room before I wake up, but the feelings I feel are real.

Dream 4: well this one is from an observers point of view and recent. I see someone laying in bed sleeping and I feel something fluffy and soft go passed my feet. I then hear what sounds like a bobcats or a cougars growl. Then I woke up.

Dream 5: It was probley 7 years ago for this one. I though I'd add it. This dream starts with me feeling like something is holding me down and when I open my eyes I see a shadowy figure ontop of me covering my entire body. I don't feel fear or mistrust or any negitive feelings. I close my eyes trying to ignore it and I then feel something like a cat walking on me. I open my eyes again and see only a shadowy figure of a cat. not a black cat, but a shadowy outline of one.

After that I close my eyes again and wake up. In this dream I don't hear any sounds at all.

Well thats the 5 I can remember. kinda strange I know. by the way most of the dreams are years old and I can still remember them very vividly. The ones to this date I still remember without even thinking are 1 and 2.
