To write a book….

mrcoffee4 — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 16:49:10 +0000

I have all these amazing stories and personal mishaps to share with so many people because I have definitely had an interesting life. How exactly do you put it to words? I mean. Where do you start and when does it end? Should it be a compilation of one certain topic? Should I just let it all rip and sort it out later? Knowing what i know about myself now, It would be of great help to me if I have a goal or a criteria to stick too. But what? All things I should have paid a better mind too when I was younger. I never excelled in the language arts, or grammar. Math and science were more my bag baby.

Being Humbled….

Shakespeare

“Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come”. Julius Caesar Quote (Act II, Scene II).

One of my favorite Shakespeare quotes. This kind of applied to someone dear and close to me today. It applies to him because he fears honesty. This quote deals with the honesty of death. It is certain. I have been watching it happen over a period of 4 or 5 months. I am hoping that this is the last death he will have to face for a long, long time. I hope he finds honesty and maybe he can touch the taste of being valiant.

Loch Lomond, Scotland 09'

I was thinking about what’s new this morning. What’s new to me are the batteries in my toothbrush. Wow! What a difference a new set of batteries make. I forgot how well this toothbrush really worked. Nothing really all that exciting, but it is the little differences in life that truly help make or break a day. Right now, my mouth feels so clean right now and for some reason. it makes me feel, really, really happy. It just does.

The riddle….

Not as many guesses as I would have liked. But since no one has guessed correctly, I will have to reveal the answer and the pictures.
The first picture was Ice. I rotated the picture 90 degrees and zoomed into an appealing section. Cropped and there you have it.

Ice

After cropping

The second picture was actually a picture of hot ashes flying up from a chiminauh. I then turned the picture 90 degrees and zoomed in on the hot ash and cropped a section I found appealling.

Hot ashes from a Chiminauh

Cropped

So the answer to the said riddle would be “Fire and Ice”. Not much of a riddle but it’s a start and I thought I’d have a little fun with it.

This is a great pic…

What could this be?

I added this picture as part of a riddle. If you guessed what the first picture was and you are able to guess what this picture is. Correctly, you will have answered a very simple riddle. Let’s see who my most clever reader might be? No one has guessed the first picture correctly yet. I will reveal the answers on Sunday at noon.

Holy Cow!

Elaine Davidson, Worlds most Peirced Woman

I was going through some pictures of my recent trip to Scotland. I ran into this woman outside of Mary King’s Close. IT was very cold out and I just could not get over this woman. How cold her face had to of felt. Then she told me who she was. “Elaine Davidson, Worlds most Pierced Woman”. Not only is she in Guinness Book of World Records. She is in the Limca Book of Records and World Record India. Over 5920 piercings.
What was really amazing to me is that this woman makes a living letting people like me to take her picture for one pound. $ 1.70.
I’ll let you make your own thoughts.

What can this be?

mrcoffee4 — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 18:20:53 +0000

See if you can guess what this is?

I took some interesting pictures today. Many of them were just your regular run of the mill pictures. I take a lot of pictures all the time.
I have a theory about taking pictures. May not even really be “my theory”. But I believe that the more pictures you take, the more chances you’ll have of capturing some really amazing things. Enjoy this picture that I am posting today. Take a guess of what it is. I will let everyone know what it is on the morrow!

The difference today

mrcoffee4 — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 07:55:58 +0000

Today is the second day of my new job. It was quite interesting yesterday. I found out that there were lines out the door for the same interview I went to last Monday. There were maybe five people when I showed up. Interviews started at ten, I got there at eleven thirty. To see that they only hired two new guys. Me and another guy, made me feel very lucky. The last time I felt this lucky was in Reno at the Atlantis casino 06″.
Before I left to go to work yesterday, I saw on the news that 500,000 jobs were lost in the last three weeks or so. In an economy… excuse me, recession, oh… my mistake, depression like the present one we are facing. To be able to sell myself over hundreds of interviewee’s really makes me feel good about me.
I have been feeling really bad about my business failing over the last two years. It turns out that getting a 9 to 5 job is the best spiritual boost the a guy like me needed. Even thought it’s below what I am used to making, it’s worth in self esteem is priceless.
So I am going to my second day of my new job very happy.
By the way, I mention recession, depression and economy because the economy turned into a recession, and now into a depression. The difference between a recession and a depression these days is your grip on reality. If your gonna keep your head above the water. You need a good grip on reality. Dreams of grandeur are not going to work these days.

Today’s the day.

Today’s the day I start my new 9 to 5 job. First time in 18 years. I am a bundle of nerves. Feeling like a teenager about to ask the prettiest girl in school out.
On the other hand. I think about all the people that lost there jobs in the last couple of months. I would have to say, that I am really lucky to have found a job during these times. Grateful indeed.
Off to the new job. Wish me luck!
