You can hold her hand
But you're still the one that makes her cry
You may be her man
But boy you can't keep this lie

(No) Hold his hand
While asking yourself why
He may Be your man
This boy don't treat you right

(Oh) No no no no no no no
You've both got this mixed and twisted
'Cos no matter all the tears you've shed
When the sun goes down you're off to bed

You can hold my hand
(Oh) As you cry
And he may be your man
Oh girl please don't cry

(Oh) Take my hand
And leave tonight
'Cos I can be your man
And man... Treat you right

Oh oo Oh oo Oh oo Oh oo Oh oo Oh!
Mixed and twisted
Tears you've shed
When the moon comes up, there's my bed...

It's been some time...

Not that there is anyone that checks my page.

I've been busy the past couple of weeks so my blogger time has diminished. But I have been making some accomplishments that I intend on blogging about. Some of them do involve pictures so I have to force myself to make time to sit in front of my home computer.

Anyhow, the list:
18. Get a Part Time Job
(Jason's Deli 1/2/08)

52. (3/6)

54. Wear Stripped Socks.
(Pictures to be added soon)

65. Figure out what to do with the extra room.

Until I finally make time to blog.

#5 Change Light Bulbs

Well the transformation has begun... In an effort to go "Green", I've started putting more Engery Star CFL light bulbs throughout the house. We've already had some on our most used lights but now I'm just doing a complete switch. Hey, it helps conserve energy and hopefully will help lower my energy cost!

Oh and, I believe I've been "Green" before the big movement began. I think it's great that the "main" is finally jumping aboard the wagon! I'm sure the machines see it as a marketing opportunity. Either way it's about time and I'm glad more people are making more of an effort in conservation.

-Not a hippie, I just love the Earth I live!

#32 Buy a CD a Month & Write a Review (1/33)

COMMON - Be - May 24, 2005












Thank you Crystal for the gift of this album.

Okay, the CD is in the player and my from the intro my head is bumpin! This is my first ever attempt at a review as well as my first time to listen to a full Common album. With that said... This album offers a fused feel of gospel, R&B and Hip-Hop. Common's voice sets the mood for every track with his naturally smooth voice. Considered a rapper I'd dare to say he is more of a poet accompanied by music. After several spins in the player, I feel this album lacks deep substance but for what it is, it's good, not the greatest but good.

My favorite tracks and Lyrics:
The Corner: We write songs about wrong cuz its hard to see right / Look to the sky, hoping it will bleed light / Reality's a bitch, and I heard that she bites

Go: (Go) And a ooh baby she liked it raw and like rain when she came it poured
(Go) Freaky like the daughter of a pastor, said I was bait for her to master

Faithful: I was rollin' around, in my mind it occurred / What if God was a her? / Would I treat her the same? Would I still be runnin' game on her? / In what type of ways would I want her? / Would I want her for her mind or her heavenly body?
Walk this earth for her, glory, I'm grateful / To be in her presence I try to stay faithful

They Say: They say "life is a game," so I play hard / Writin for my life cause I'm scared of a day job

#94 Buy Piggy Bank for Quarters

Well... I didn't have to buy a piggy bank.

Why are they called piggy banks anyway? (Off to the internet!)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pygg is a type of orange clay, once widely used for making pottery in the form of jars, cookware and other household items because it was economical.

A piggy bank was originally a "pygg jar". Later, the word "pygg" became less common, and its sound was reinterpreted as "pig"; only then did piggy banks actually begin to be made in the shape of a pig.

The original pronunciation of "pygg" was probably closer to "pug", but over time the pronunciation changed due to the Great Vowel Shift and became a homonym of "pig".

Okay, okay, enough about that... Although that was pretty interesting! Something I never knew nor ever really thought about before. Oh how my blog is full of useful information! haha!

Anywho, I didn't have to buy a "Pygg Jar" because I got one as a gift. Usually for Christmas my boss gives me some comically lame cologne products. Example, you say? Well, last year I got a fine gift set of Stetson, that's right Stetson, Avon's way of saying we should all reek of OLD men! And the year before I received a gift a little more up to date... Hot Bod! haha! Oh, just typing that makes me laugh! I have to say too, that stuff works nothing like the commercials portray it to! I rarely to NEVER had women flocking and/or fighting over me! Okay, yet again I've said too much and not enough! This year my boss got me a neat Guinness can that had pajama pants in it. The cool thing (for me) is that the can not only had the pants in it but it also doubles as a coin can!

The Sky Has Fallen
And Gloom Leaves Tears on Petals

#61 "Hold My Beer & Watch This" (Do something cool)

So the days leading up the the Mayweather fight this past Friday (12/7/07) there was plenty of televised hype, with pieces on both fighters and an awesome training piece on Mayweather. He was doing sit-ups; but these were no normal sit-ups, at least none I had ever seen before!

This sit-up is like any other sit-up BUT when you get to the "up" position you stand up and throw a couple of punches. Of course when I saw it I knew I had to do it! So I did! On our camping trip I knocked out two in a row. Maybe I could've have done more but not after... "Hold My Beer & Watch This" haha!

Check out this video of Mayweather "Doing Work!" (@ minute 1:10) I can do that!

***By the way... My modified sit-up is nothing like his! :)***
