Greenlight Toastmasters

It's pure fun being the most tech savvy person in my club, especially when I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. I am the VP of PR...I'm responsible for, well, public relations. Essentially, I'm in advertising. I've never really shone @ that but, it's the position that I was elected for so that's what I'm gonna do...relate to the public. I'm still having some issues w/the site; mainly, content. I only have one page left to add and then, I'll unveil it for all of the world to see...even though I know absolutely nothing about HTML or any other forms of coding. Thank God for Yahoo Page Builder. http://www.comxcomics.com/index.html

Rolling Cabin Fever

Last Monday, I got a call from my sister. Hey, you wanna go see Granny this weekend? I'm at work so I ask her to call me back in 20. I then silently mull over my plans for the weekend--none. My checking account? Okay. I get paid the Friday they want to leave so I have a little spending money. My sanity? Check please! I've never been the type of guy that would be considered "straight & narrow"; sometimes my own thought process makes me sit back and ask, WTF??? There's a reason for this mini-impromptu self-assessment. Most of my grannies live within a five to ten minute drive from my house. So, when my sister asks the question: "hey, you wanna go see Granny this weekend?", she could only be talking about one Granny, Grandma Dorothy...who lives in Savannah, GA. The most preferred form of transportation in our family is the car. This revelation leads to two words which don't scare me when used separately. Together, they're two of the most frighte

St. Paddy's Day...

...was pretty uneventful. Didn't do nearly the amount of drinking that I thought I'd do, I guess that's a good thing. Still, it was St. Paddy's Day, so we ("we" being me and the group of functional alkies I drink with; my ex co-workers) made the most of it!!! We had a few drinks, socialized, strengthened our bonds of friendship and camaraderie by telling gross or dirty anecdotes, drank, made clumsy advances at women, drank, pranked each other, swore loudly, drank, watched various sporting events, drank, giggled at the hot red-head with curls who had butterflies at the top of her thong and a tee-shirt that read "Erin Go Braugh-Less", ordered food, argued about work, made more clumsy advances at women and drank. By the end of the night, I was little disappointed. It was a typical happy hour. http://www.googlefight.com/

Gelid...

Yesterday was just a tease; I should've known it was too good to be true! I feel like I've been cheated! How did we ended up w/yesterday's evil twin sister??? Wow, what a difference a day makes! Yesterday was warm, agreeable, sweet to the touch; in a word, gorgeous! Today, blustery, obnoxious, hard to get along with, nasty. Like going out on a date, w/a beautiful woman (and by beautiful, I mean nice, intelligent, easy-going and down to Earth) but only under the condition that she brings her sister (overbearing, manipulative, ungrateful, spoiled, loud, cynical) along to "gum up the works" . T-minus 12 days and counting! I hate winter. I hate winter. I hate winter... There's no place like home. There's no place like home. There's no place like home... http://www.dciff.org/
