It's My Life

I know, I know.. it's been awhile since I last posted anything. What can I say, just got alot of stuff going on..... like I'm reading about 5 different books at the sametime. Read one, put it down for awhile and start one of the others... so and so. Come on.. I know there are some of you out there that do that too.

Right now I'm reading "The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the 21st Century" by Thomas L. Friedman. And I'll tell ya... the world is flat. Mind boggling, mind blowing, makes a bit mad.... I know I was a tad bit upset to learn that some American tax returns are being completed overseas... in India.

Right now I'm reading about Wal-Mart. Well.... I have very mixed feelings about the super chain store. It does seem like every time I buy something at WallyWorld, it falls apart.... but I still go there. A person can do almost everything at WalMart, get your haircut, eat at Subway, bank, eye doctor, get your car worked on.. Some friends and I have joked how our kids will someday be going to the Wal Mart Elementary, High School, and the Wal Mart University.... But we are also the same group of friends that think Minnesota should be 2 seperate states like North and South Dakota... but that's a different story....

So anways, this book, if you haven't read it, do. It's a real eye opener to alot of things and you will see just how flat this world really is.

You are 60% Sagittarius

Well. My vacation is almost over. I go back to work Monday.... yuck. Oh well, that's the way it goes I guess. I have a much longer vacation coming on later in August into September.... that is only a few months away...

My parents have been up this week. They head out tomorrow morning (1 am) CST. They should get home late Saturday night.

What have I done while on VACATION? Well, not much, we went somewhere everyday pretty much. Went to Walker a couple of times, Rapids a couple of times, Bemidji only once. Longville only once, watched movies, chilled out at the house. So, that was a weeks worth of vacation time well worth spent... haha.

Where have or where will any of you blogging fools be going on vacation?

Recently I went to see Tracy Byrd in concert at the Northern Lights Casino in Walker, Minnesota. He was exellent in concert.

Again, a few weeks ago I also got to see SheDaisy at the same location in Walker, Minnesota. These girls were awesome. You'll notice that the middle girl is not the original member of SheDaisy. I shouldn't think that everyone knows who SheDaisy is, but they are a country act. The original 3rd member is due to delievery a baby at any time. The little middle one in the pic is the younger sister.


Enjoy the Pics!!!!

I'm sitting in a class right now learning more about blogging. So far it's been very informative. Anyways.......

I blogged sometime ago that I was taking on the project of builing a computer. Well....... Things were going good until I believe the hard drive died on me. So, instead of dealing with another building mess, I just went ahead and bought one from Tigerdirect. Things are much better, I have a happy computer.

I want to share a few links that I enjoy visiting:
TheCatsDomain
Kentucky News
Mchs96ers

I'll post more later

I am starting a new project. I'm going to build my first computer the way that I WANT IT. This is going to be a multi-media comp. I like to enjoy my tune while I work, and this old comp I have now is going on 6 or 7 years old. I thought about upgrading it, but.... building one has to be much more fun. I would like to tibits on the types of equipment out there.

I already have the case ordered and should be here Tuesday. Also have my motherboard, floppy, and dvd-rw bought.

Also, if any individual passes by my blog, who happens to be a DJ or at one time was, I have some questions. So post here, so that I can correspond concerning the world of the DJ.

I've been neglectful. Anyhow... I have sometime to actually post a little something. I hope the Holidays were good for those that celebrated it. I went home to Kentucky..... the weather was both pleasant on the travels to Ky and back to Minnesota. I got some ATV riding in. My dad recently bought him an Artic Cat 650. Nice ride, too much power for me.. and it's much fun for trailing riding in the Appalachain Hills. Also did some horseback riding with my sister.

Met with some high school friends, we get together at least once a year for the Holidays and do a gift exchange, catch up with the happenings of our lives.

Anyways, I really want to move back to Kentucky... or somewhere closer.... be it Missouri or Indiana. It will depend more when I graduate college and begin looking to put my degree to use.

Well....... the Cats are on what... a 3 game losing streak right now. Lost to Vandy and Bama at home.. in Rupp of all places. I don't want to bash Tubby.... because I do think he is a good person eventhough I have never met him, but something tells me he has a good heart. Recruiting or something just isn't happening right. UK should be getting some talent.... Yes, Morris has talent and can play, but he can't win ever game for UK. There is no "I" in team...... I'm a former basketball player, play as a team, win or loose as a team. Rondo.... I just don't know... some games he slashes like driving pt. guard and other games... he is unsure what to do. I wonder about his basketball IQ. Sparks....... Perry..... Woo..... I'm just going to stop ranting because it isn't doing any good. The team needs chemistry.... and they just don't have it ..... not now anyways..... NASCAR is less then a month away from starting.. so I'm looking forward to that. .... if things continue to get worse for the Cats, NASCAR lasts until November... ;)
