Folding Paper

A lot of people ask me what step 7 is for the paper crane. Well, I don't even know what step one is. Origami is an interesting Japanese art. Apparently it promotes concentration and fines motor skills. I've just started folding paper and its a lot of fun. I got interested in it by a couple of guys who thought I folded paper. Know I can tell them that I actually can. Here is my progress on folding paper:

Give Me Twenty Son!!!

One..Two..Three..Need to gasp for air.. Its been a long time since I've done any kind of pull up. The State Wrestling Meet was my measuring stick of how out of shape I was. The marines had a booth set up with a tall pull up bar. If anyone got 20 pull ups, they would receive a shirt and 10 would get you a water bottle. As daunting as the bar looked, I took up the task of trying to get 20 of those menacing pull ups. I told one of marines that I'm shooting to get at least one. I jumped up to the bar and hung thinking "Don't embarrass yourself" I flew through most of my pull ups until I got around 10. Struggling to get some extra ones in, I ended up with 12. Not bad for being out of shape. Exercise is now going to be part of my everyday life (At least attempt to make it be).

Here is some footage of the sweet action pull ups done at State:

Can the Hare really Beat the Tortoise this Time???

I had a very interesting observation last weekend at a Home and Builders Show. The company I work for had a booth there. Another booth across from us sold siding and gutter equipment. One of the guys from that booth was just an absolute creep. We had a woman working with us in our booth and came in that afternoon. Once she arrived, the siding dude came up to her and asked her out on a date. Are you kidding me??? This dude was that quick to asking a girl on but didn't see that this lady had the rock on her left finger. She told him politely "NO WAY" This dude was checking out ladies all day. What struck me was that he actually got a phone number. Close to the end of the show, he received a number from a Booth Babe who was selling floors. I thought to myself "No way this creep actually got a number" This guy was fast and upfront with the ladies but persistent in actually scoring with a woman. Unbelievable...please don't act like this guy. Treat women with respect and don't act like a pig. He even tried to offer pizza to us that he made the night before. No thanks, I'll just go to Taco Johns...

Yes Chef!!!

Hello everyone...its been a while since i've posted. I've been watching a show called Kitchen Nightmares. I love this show! It features the one and only chef Gordon Ramsey. You may have seen his other show: Hell's Kitchen. I love how Gordon approaches every restraunt/kitchen situation. He tries out their food, observes dinner services, and then looks to ways to improve them. He really does his homework and is a very in your face person. I recommend watching at least an episode to see how he does w/these restraunts. Its awesome...

Stick This In Your Ear

It is just not fair comma how you can apostrophe "T" process this
So dash called sagua faire comma in the air exclamation
Trying to be compatible so hyphen to dash speak semicolon
With my quotation quotables colon
You love who you are period. I love who I am period
But when it comes to liking parenthesis yourself
You have a question mark, period, new paragraph
I have a solution semicolon I have a fresh point
Dash of hyphen view period
I apostrophe "M" punctuating boundaries ampersand, ALL CAPS
Can I speak to you quotations mentally underscore evidently
Ellipses, end line... Tab
It is so hard to re dash invent myself to a platform
That you can italics understand period
That you can digest comma ampersand
Holding your hand comma why Question mark
Am I the quote infection that keeps your head dash
Aching period. Parenthesis
If you would listen to the synnergies of my thoughts semicolon
It would keep your quote foundation from shaking exclamation
So, ALL CAPS bold this is for your ear comma for your head comma
And for your thoughts
Just cram it in far and you will see dot dot dot
