Where do we sign up for the weather that will bring my testicles back down out of my abdomen? I mean I went through this once before and after the pimples and squeaky voice I thought I was done with it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But at least the cold brings in the "most wonderful time of the year" [I can't take credit for that... I totally pinched it from a song... So you may have recognized the phrasing.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mean c'mon. How could it NOT be the most wonderful time of the year? we're talking presents and egg nog and presents and chestnuts roasting on an open fire....&lt;br /&gt;Though that last one probably isn't so great if you own either the chest or the nuts that are being roasted or if the "Open Fire" gets a bit out of hand when you realize that it will be you Bits that will be going in over the lickin' flames. Well I mean who knows... maybe your into that.... All I know is if it gets much colder I might take a pass at it myself!&lt;br /&gt;But I digress....&lt;br /&gt;So I am looking forward to Christmas this year. The kids are gonna get spoiled rotten!&lt;br /&gt;NOTHIN' wrong with that I tell ya... in moderation any way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this post proves that I am still alive. I have been busy as all hell lately. rebuilding computers in every nook &amp;amp; cranny in the house.&lt;br /&gt;So hopefully I will be less of a blog slacker and get more posted. I think I will do a List like Julie did of my 10 Things... and to be honest... I don't know which things will make it to the top ten at the moment... so I will have to think about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More as I get the chance....&lt;br /&gt;Later~&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-1783405373283475346?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/1783405373283475346/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=1783405373283475346' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/1783405373283475346'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/1783405373283475346'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/12/wow-its-freakin-cold.html' title='Wow it&apos;s freakin&apos; cold!'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-7877469265282648120</id><published>2008-11-29T11:00:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2008-11-29T11:00:19.332-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Lights, camera..... wait for it.... wait for it</title><content type='html'>&lt;i&gt;&lt;font size="6"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial black,sans-serif;"&gt;ACTION!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Well I have been working on getting the idea for my first spoof film tightened up.&lt;br&gt;Which basically has involved having a few drinks and talking stupid ideas out... and by stupid I mean Freakin&amp;#39; awesome!&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;So I am gonna start doing a little guerrilla filming once I get the details worked out and then I should be posting some web junk.&lt;br&gt;Now I make no promises on how good the movies are gonna be... but I do think it is gonna be fun to film.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-7877469265282648120?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/7877469265282648120/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=7877469265282648120' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/7877469265282648120'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/7877469265282648120'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/11/lights-camera-wait-for-it-wait-for-it.html' title='Lights, camera..... wait for it.... wait for it'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-4879378223940054157</id><published>2008-11-26T09:25:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2008-11-26T09:25:27.142-05:00</updated><title type='text'>So...

And I know that I can't remember the last time I felt like flinging an XP laptop through a window (Well in all honesty… I actually can… but I will say it was &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;PRE &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;sp1!)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;So tonight I will clear everything off and get all my XP drivers burnt to disc… and then it's on like muthfuckin' donkey kong!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;Ooooooooooh yeah…. So I was gonna save this for another blog but I will go into detail later (I am sure I will babble on endlessly) I have a new digital camcorder with all the fixins so I intend to start whoring my movie editing skillz (Uuuuum yeaaaaaah) out and doing some youtube posts…. More on that when I have something worth watching. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;br&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-4879378223940054157?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/4879378223940054157/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=4879378223940054157' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/4879378223940054157'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/4879378223940054157'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/11/so-fuck-vista-and-dell-it-rode-in-on.html' title='So...

Look... I didn&amp;#39;t have any fancy TVs and DVD players in the car.... hell sometimes I was lucky to have heat!&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;I think that you are either born with the gypsy lifestyle ingrained in the very fiber of your being or you don&amp;#39;t have it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am hoping that he shoots a little higher than BK.... but ya know It is a step forward from the &amp;quot;I am NEVER moving out of this house... the kids can get on the bus here&amp;quot; statement from a few years back.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So.... needless to say the smiles laughing and discussions about living in a car continued for awhile...

He coulda &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;DONE SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!!!!!&lt;/span&gt; (Like my blog title implies!)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Edward could have been at least slightly less of an all around Pussy (just for starters)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;There could have been more killing and maybe an explosion worthy of mention.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;See #1 (Once again... fer the love of Christ the girl wanted you about as far inside of her as your pansy ass could have made it... I mean damn at least show the girl a couple hardcore seconds of your Vampire love.)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;They could have done a cross-over and let Edward use the "Port Key" from his last wondrous role and maybe he could have jumped straight into talent.... or at least a couple of acting classes.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;AND THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ONE SO PAY ATTENTION.&lt;/span&gt; The cock-knocking, swill gargler that ALLOWED "Edward" to think he was talented enough to play and sing the song for the soundtrack should have been dragged on screen and had his entrails pulled slowly out through his rectum with a spork. IF you thought his acting was bad.... Oooooh his singing will take you to a very dark place... and NOT in a good way. (that WONDERFUL little singing that you hear warbbling in the back ground as Bella is eating in the resturaunt... yup you guessed it... That is the sissy immortal himself.... don't believe me... check the credits.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;  When I left the movie someone could have met me at the theater doors and Knelt down in front of me begging me to forgive them for haven taken my money and then refunded the total cost of the tickets and given me movie passes good for as many movies as I would like for the remaning years I had left on this filthy dirtclod called earth. That might have come close to squaring up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;Those are just a few of my observations.&lt;br /&gt;So...

So there really isn&amp;#39;t much else about life I am gonna burn time focusing on &amp;#39;cuz none of it really matters (Cue some cheesy &lt;font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"&gt;metallica-&lt;/font&gt;ballad).&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;I wasn&amp;#39;t trying to piss any one off or stop anyone from talking to me...

I mean&amp;nbsp;ferChrist sake how else&amp;nbsp;would I have found Dresden.... or known that you could pay for tolls with Mt dew bottles &amp;amp; cans.

Definitely MORE! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;As you can all see from the pictures above... Matt had effectively Quartered the number of hairs "Growing" on my chest while at the same time Halving the number of wirey little hair tendrals that populated the outer rim of my Left nipple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know... I'm a freak. I can't help it... So Ladies... Please control y'selves!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know my Hair challenged Man-teats are a wonder to behold in and of themselves but I thought I could give you all a reason not to feel guilty when you oogle my ever so enticing pecs. I know... it's okay... Some times I catch myself drifting by the full length mirrors I have had installed on the walls, ceiling and floor at my place and can't help but give myself a lil' wink, a nod and "Pull out the Gun-Hands".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;But seriously folks.....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realize now that I really do need to start working out... I was gonna say "Again" but it's been so long since I last worked out with out my life being in true peril [running from an escaped tiger at the zoo does NOT count as Cardio! No Fuckin' way I am pencilling THAT into a weekly routine!!! "Is today ISOs or am I poking panda bears with sticks today" and if you aren't-in-the-know Pandas will FUCK YOU UP!!! check into it! The Chinese and their panda related Propaganda PR would have you believe it's all cuddly-fuzziness and Fun... They will &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;EAT. YOUR. SOUL! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;FACT!&lt;/span&gt;]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there should be more Tattoos in my near future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have already talked to Matt and he is gonna cut me a fucking awesome deal on a Half sleeve cover-up if I can sit in the chair for four hours. Half Sleeve...Here I come!!!! I am Reeeeeeally looking forward to it! Now I need to get to work on the art... I have an Idea for my next three... To include the rough mental outline for the 1/2 sleeve.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okay I guess that is enough for tonight.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-3412759502248848993?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/3412759502248848993/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=3412759502248848993' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/3412759502248848993'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/3412759502248848993'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/10/matt-could-u-shave-half-of-my-nipple-4.html' title='Matt...

So I gotta pick up my rental car Sunday to head off for training. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;AND&lt;/span&gt; it looks like I will be working on my masters in "All  that spare time" I have.  on the company's dime as well... so does it get any sweeter than that? Not really a super exciting post... but I haven't had much time to play electronic catch-up with everyone... so I figured I would prove I was still alive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today is my dad's Birthday so we are gonna stop by and see him for awhile this afternoon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today The other half is on an all out Xmas shopping expedition with one of her friends.&lt;br /&gt;So the Man-cub and I are doing the King-of-the-house thing. We have some running around to do and then The twins are coming over for the night. Probably some movie action and pizza or just a junk food smorgasbord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing extremely exciting I know, but it is what it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-6165540159186297388?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/6165540159186297388/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=6165540159186297388' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6165540159186297388'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6165540159186297388'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/10/rental-cars-training-my-masters-oh-my.html' title='Rental cars, Training &amp; my Masters Oh my!'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-50064539646847397</id><published>2008-10-06T23:51:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T23:59:19.604-04:00</updated><title type='text'>and then I had to stop wearing Axe</title><content type='html'>I had to.... shit like this was always happening to me.... and to be honest the bathroom upstairs really can only take so much of me falling through it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;object height="344" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/g_ySo29c-Gg&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/g_ySo29c-Gg&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-50064539646847397?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/50064539646847397/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=50064539646847397' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/50064539646847397'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/50064539646847397'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/10/i-had-to-stop-wearing-axe.html' title='and then I had to stop wearing Axe'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-6706422097682488732</id><published>2008-10-06T21:43:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T23:58:46.115-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Bringing a Lil' Winterport to Hampden</title><content type='html'>I stood around this mornin' thinkin' to myself "Why is it exactly that my neighbors all &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Loooove&lt;/span&gt; Me?" Well if I'm honest I broke it down a little something like this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" &gt;"The weakest Link"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Generally speaking People (Read that last part as "All the Fucks that ain't us") tend to Surround  themselves with people that make them look better at first glance.&lt;br /&gt;Well the problem with that is you have people out there like me That fuck that theory all sortsa up for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now let me just expand on that for a minute if I may. When someone chooses to surround themselves they try to grab someone of like characteristics and just try to "Shop slightly below" the image they themselves are trying to put off.... and in strolls me. One white bread walking dilemma of a neighbor showing up to frig up the  resale values in middle-classurbia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So crowded around there are those sorta people that groom their lawns right up till when the snow flies... I refer to them as "Those People"  because I am &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;NOT &lt;/span&gt;one of them. Now back to me...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been remodeling my house for like... Well since the minute I have owned it. It is a &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;CONSTANT &lt;/span&gt;process. Now any one that knows me knows that I am WAY more in tune with the DEstruction part and the CONstruction part... uuum well, let's just say I haven't been as excited about THAT part. To be honest, I've accomplished more in the last 4 weeks than I have in the last 4 years... but I digress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So back to the fucks that chose (or were forced by cruel fate when I moved in!) to live near me (I swear I think I deserve to be on ANY flier involving the neighborhood). I see them looking at my yard and shaking their heads (Yeah I'm talkin' about YOU Lounsbury!) As I wield the machete to get the boy on the bus in the morning. Hey, childhood is supposed to be an adventure and I'm Indiana Freakinjones.  Anyway... As I have remodeled I have had a tendency to just pitch shit off my deck...&lt;br /&gt;I know what your think "Fucking Class act" and I agree Whole heartedly. However the pile of debris that seems to be taking on a life of it's own... well it's even a bit much for my rednecky ass to put up with.&lt;br /&gt;I have Half-ass tried to keep it between the rock wall and the car on blocks... but it has strayed a bit... in a few places.  The neighbors have that look in their eyes like &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"We'll NEVER be able to sell... I know the market is down right now but living next to Bo-Bo the remodeling freak over there... well quite frankly dear I do believe we're fucked!" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my heart of hearts I Almost feel for them.. but then I remember that we live in America... and I don't even need to take responsibility... I can Blame shift and with a guilt free wave of the Blame wand I skillfully plop the responsibility for the impromptu-formation-of-utter-turmoil-unleashed square onto the town of Hampden... that's right you heard me.&lt;br /&gt;I mean c'mon... We used to be able to take Debris (of which my pile is completely constructed!) to the dump when ever the hell we felt like it (well, except Monday and Tuesday.. but I don't count those days anyway.) And then the HIGH and Mighty powers that control the friggin' trash heap decided that because of abuse by contractors (Yeah... so you Fucks aren't blameless in this whole charade either... and you know who you are you privilege abusin' pricks!) That they were going to limit it to two weekends a month... and it almost seems as if you are trying to break into fucking fort Knox if you try to slip some official debris into the dump on unofficial Debris days. I mean break out the gestapo action... they just need the uniforms. And for the love of all that is holy and good It isn't like the landfill here in Hampden is taking such a serious ass whooping because of Lil' ol me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any way... So that pile is growing and as I looked around this morning I thought "Wooooow... Looks like a little slice of backwoods west Winterport around here" ... and trust me when I tell you folks I should know. That thought made me smile because I realized every one around me used to just wish their yard looked better than the next guys and so on and so forth.... now all of them just wished my yard look as good as &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;ANY &lt;/span&gt;of theirs... And there I go fucking up that curve.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So as I began to walk my grinning ass back to the house I thought Maybe I should take down the pool in my driveway... but then, Hell where are the kids gonna skate this year if I do?&lt;br /&gt;So... if you look on Google maps and see some ramshackle stack of all-out-redneck next to the road here in Hampden... well you zoom right in real close like and I do believe you will see me giving the satellite the finger while mooning the Lounsbury's.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-6706422097682488732?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/6706422097682488732/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=6706422097682488732' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6706422097682488732'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6706422097682488732'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/10/bringing-lil-winterport-to-hampden.html' title='Bringing a Lil&apos;

I'm doin' it&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been designing tattoos for everyone under the sun and the other day I sat down to pen one up for myself.&lt;br /&gt;I called Rick to see if he wanted to go with me and that way we can totally copy Colleen &amp;amp; Nicole... in fact I am going comando and I'm gonna wear a skirt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway... back to the tattoo....&lt;br /&gt;I sat down to think about what I wanted....&lt;br /&gt;after the briefest of moment the tattoo I wanted popped into my head.&lt;br /&gt;I wasn't sure where I was gonna get a left handed transvestite midget to pose with a chainsaw, a dead cat and a bottle of champagne but then after a moment I realized that really would be a tough one to explain in the nursing home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Well ya see.... That there is ya typical south-paw tranny psycho... see ya can tell right there from the dead cat and the champagne I mean really, what self respectin' Hobbit would have Champagne with dead cat.... ya need something like Pabst to bring out the flavor...."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[Ooooh... and in case there is a question.... yes I fully intend to be 10 kindsa crazy when I am old... and Yes I fully expect my son to put me in a home.. I mean fer Keriist Sakes lookit me.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So having realized that the amount of trust I would have to have in the tattooist to pull off that level of detail and pull of "the Look" I was going for... Well lets be honest... I ain't that trustin'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I settled down at the computer and started to work on constructing the next great inkstain to grace my skin.&lt;br /&gt;I was having idea after idea colliding around in my skull.&lt;br /&gt;I came up with several that were "strong first choices"&lt;br /&gt;[in case it helps you all sleep at night.... YES I do Air quotes... I see no problem with it. if you yourself happen to take offense to air quote abuse... well, Piss up a rope and get over yaself I ain't changin' my air quotin' way for no one... NO ONE ya hear!]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I was trying to decide which one looked most like me.... Julie had gone in-town for a quick shopping trip and there were kids screaming through the house and soothing my nerves so that I could make a calm rational decision about what I liked best when I looked back at what I had been working on and decided to change it. I combined a few of my favorite elements and through it together in what seemed like no time at all... It just seemed perfect and right. when Julie got back I showed her the newest "Potential" tattoo. I already knew from before she left which one she had liked before... when she saw the one I had just done she was like "... wow baby... that makes me want to get a tattoo!" So I took that as one more vote for that being my next tattoo. I showed Mindy and she thought it would be perfect for me also.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 153);font-size:180%;" &gt;"So Show us already you stallin' Prick!!!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know your all probably like " &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;...jeesuuuuuus Keeerist would you show us the fuckin' Tattoo already you long-winded Ramblin' fuck!&lt;/span&gt;" [or at least that is what I heard in Kristie's voice in my head... and then it sounded like she spit and put in a wad of chew as well. I think it was long cut but I couldn't be sure.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But just like with Rick's tattoo I am not gonna post it to the web so that every drunken Frat boy or Left handed midget transvestite will be walking around sporting the same tattoo... So if you wanna see it... Weeeeeeell i am guessing the best way to do that is to drink in close proximity to where I am.... or wait until the "After pictures" get posted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I may change my mind about posting it but we will see.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-6979171240724984140?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/6979171240724984140/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=6979171240724984140' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6979171240724984140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6979171240724984140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/09/new-tattoo.html' title='New Tattoo'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-4213239307975192559</id><published>2008-09-23T21:06:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-09-23T21:39:40.054-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Music and Whoredom'/><title type='text'>Rhapsody...

Today was a good day.&lt;br /&gt;I picked Greg up this morning and him and I pretty much cranked out the new kitchen floor.&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrow we will be doing the Laundry room floor and the trim in the kitchen plus putting up the door casings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today it went pretty well... we cranked up "House of Hair" and just started lining things up first.&lt;br /&gt;It went a little slow in the beginning because we took the time to get everything in place and do the cuts so that we would have a nice straight floor. After we got going We just flew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So tomorrow we should have the laundry room finished too and then after it is finished it is going to be converted into a writing room / utility room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not an exciting post I am sure but it is another room down on the list of "Rooms to remodel" and I am slowly getting to the end of that list.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am finished for the evening I am gonna go mix myself I heavy handed Seven &amp;amp; Seven and Try to come up with something witty and smart ass for my next post.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-5073182165048458802?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/5073182165048458802/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=5073182165048458802' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/5073182165048458802'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/5073182165048458802'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/09/good-laid.html' title='Good &amp; Laid'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-8493201318747014316</id><published>2008-09-04T20:42:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-09-04T20:48:10.046-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Waiting.... just waiting.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" &gt;Not so patiently I have to tell you&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My new Laptop should be in on the 16th I think if all goes as planned....

Lunch time. I had stepped out to the truck for a break and as I sat down behind the wheel I saw a sight that reminded me what a great country we live in.&lt;br /&gt;Diva's.&lt;br /&gt;Now Diva's itself is not what makes me think that this is a great country... but scantily clad females is a pretty damn good reason... I know there is alot of sexiness in the eyes but somehow those middle eastern places just don't realize... looking at nothing but eyes....... uuuuuum yer missing a bit of the scenery.... I dunno maybe it's just me. **shrug** but any way.... back to my story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there it is in all it's skeezy glory right across the parking lot from where my windshield happens to be at that moment, Diva's. and as I smirk and size up the otherwise unimpressive brick structure I can't help but notice the signage. All of the decorative Naked Lady silhouettes bordering all of the words... here there and everywhere.&lt;br /&gt;Somewhere deep inside of me I feel my mind pulled in a direction that seems in a direction one wouldn't expect while viewing Naked Lady silhouettes... It was brought about by the proclomation that they Love our soldiers....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now... c'mon that string of insults and slams almost write themselves.&lt;br /&gt;So I won't bother to say something like "Sure but that one guy on leave doesn't count as 'Our soldiers' not even if a few of them shared him"... Like I said.... too easy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But anyway... I started looking at all of the signs tacked all over the building and after a little time reading and smiling I have to say... "God Bless those strippers for giving our boys something to look forward to coming home to"  It seems those half naked and scantily clad lasses reminded me what patriotism is all about.... So the next plane that comes in full of soldiers at BIA... those fuckers are getting flashed... God bless the troops... &amp;amp; I intend to help out with moral for good ol Uncle Sam!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-2990169352349080837?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/2990169352349080837/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=2990169352349080837' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/2990169352349080837'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/2990169352349080837'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/09/divas-is-one-patriotic-spot.html' title='Diva&apos;s is one patriotic spot!'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-1857482755023258361</id><published>2008-09-02T19:22:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-09-02T19:26:12.565-04:00</updated><title type='text'>New job</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" &gt;Paperwork &amp;amp; Coffee&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well...

Looking forward to getting everything in place for my team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More as I get it all ironed out.... nothing super exciting but everything seems to be going great.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-1857482755023258361?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/1857482755023258361/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=1857482755023258361' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/1857482755023258361'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/1857482755023258361'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/09/new-job.html' title='New job'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-4998008689696815058</id><published>2008-08-30T13:21:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-08-30T13:25:23.790-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Checking out pellet stoves</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Change of Fuel dependence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have been talking about changing the source of all our winter warmth over for awhile.&lt;br /&gt;After last years Rape job of oil delivery and a few talks with the guys down in the shop the Pellet solution started looking more and more like the way to go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So we are going out today to check over our options and sometime in the next month I will be installing which ever one we decide to go with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not exciting... but just what is going on.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-4998008689696815058?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/4998008689696815058/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=4998008689696815058' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/4998008689696815058'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/4998008689696815058'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/08/checking-out-pellet-stoves.html' title='Checking out pellet stoves'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-3270237357102308668</id><published>2008-08-28T19:09:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-08-28T19:26:55.797-04:00</updated><title type='text'>So I quit my job today....</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"Resigned" Technically I guess&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But really does it mean anything different?&lt;br /&gt;I really liked some of the people that I worked with &amp;amp; will miss them...&lt;br /&gt;Not to mention I will miss the rides to and from work with all of the Guy Smiley sightings and Salvation army Guy references.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will say that I can't thank Rick enough for getting me in the door up there.&lt;br /&gt;I have something else lined up (and NO Nicole it is NOT the Airport.) and I will be starting after the holiday weekend.

I don't even come close to passing for a responsible adult.&lt;br /&gt;So there are generally a great deal of comments I don't make on your blogs because while I find them amusing and I am sure that Rick and I would laugh about them all the way into work... I don't think they hold the same weight and merit with most people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...and all of that having been said... sometimes it is just difficult to come up with something to say that is amusing and doesn't offend most people to the point where Rick and I are the only ones commenting...&lt;br /&gt;don't get me wrong... that is entertaining to me as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some days however... the complete heaviness of a crushing adult world takes the absolute last of my comedic energy and kicks it square in the balls. (Which I am sure leads to a grazing Taint shot as well.)&lt;br /&gt;So yeah... more blogs when I have something mildly amusing to say.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-6865295905467362577?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/6865295905467362577/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=6865295905467362577' title='11 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6865295905467362577'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/6865295905467362577'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/07/i-feel-guilty-blogging.html' title='I feel guilty blogging.'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-8401862096169799782</id><published>2008-07-21T21:12:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-07-21T21:18:02.959-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Too Tired to be funny</title><content type='html'>Well...

ALIVE!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The car that is.&lt;br /&gt;I got her put back together and let me just tell you something.&lt;br /&gt;There is a reason I do not make my living as a mechanic.&lt;br /&gt;Now I know what some of you are thinking... and No I am quite capable of skinning my knuckles and swearing (in fact that part I am quite proficient at)&lt;br /&gt;I know that comes as quite a shock to all of you.&lt;br /&gt;As I am sure you can all picture me in my greasy clothes saying things like "Sugar foot", "Oh Crabgrass" and "Muffin sticks!"&lt;br /&gt;Surprisingly enough "Taint" has been know to cross my lips... no wait a second... &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;THAT'S&lt;/span&gt; not what I meant...&lt;br /&gt;Anyway.&lt;br /&gt;So back to the reason I don't make my living at it.&lt;br /&gt;There are things that I am capable of doing and enjoy... but if I &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;HAVE &lt;/span&gt;to do them... they become &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;NOT &lt;/span&gt;fun and I drag my feet like a dog at the vets that's going to be neutered.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All that being said... I got the car back together and the way I did it was the absolute simplest formula and it was one that relied on digging deep into my past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The method for finishing the car went something like this...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;01:&lt;/span&gt; Get extremely fuuuuuuhckt up the night before &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;(Check!) &lt;/span&gt;... party like a rock star that has access to a game camera, some cake boobs &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;(Yes I meant "Cake" ANYONE can fondle FAKE boobs)&lt;/span&gt; and a fishing lure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;02:&lt;/span&gt; Do anything BUT work on the car when you wake up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;03:&lt;/span&gt; Around 3:30 - 4ish Throw on greasy clothes &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;(UNLESS you woke up in your "Greasy clothes that is" hey... it happens.)  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;04:&lt;/span&gt; Crawl under vehicle and absolutely blank out your mind... Switch to auto pilot. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;(It is a good thing that my "Auto Pilot Flight instructions" were programmed when I was three sheets to the wind.... aaaaah the "Formative years" )&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;05:&lt;/span&gt; Scrape &amp;amp; skin knuckles and forearms all to hell&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;06:&lt;/span&gt; Swear. This may happen at ANY time through out this formula... it is not necessarily tied to the sixth position however it does generally follow Step five at what ever interval that particular step crops up in the routine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;07: &lt;/span&gt;Take a break to look things over... this is the point at which you realize that #@$%in' power steering pump bracket obstructs your ability to thread in the leftmost exhaust manifold nut at which point you continue to celebrate your absolute wisdom at "Saving time" by bolting that on first. Not that I'm bitter or anything but I tell you if I ever meet the fucker that was the lead engineer at Hyundai I swear to Christ the ass whooping I lay do will be of biblical proportions... I mean we will find out if an engineers Taint and a power steering pump bracket can "Begat" anything. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;08:&lt;/span&gt; Redo anything that you did in what seemed like a logical order but found in step seven to be wrong. Until you have performed to at least the extent of your ability a somewhat Half ass job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;09:&lt;/span&gt; Toss your tools in on the floor mats 'cuz your done for the night... I didn't say you were &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;DONE&lt;/span&gt;.... I said you were Done for the night. The reason for the added little modifier on done is &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;UNDOUBTEDLY &lt;/span&gt;you found Something else that required attention while working on whatever the hell you originally started working on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So anyway... the car is done....&lt;br /&gt;Except Now I need to Bleed the brakes, fill the power steering fluid, change the filters, change the oil, change the plugs, and change the wipers... Oh yeah not to mention check the circuit for the speed sensor and oil the hinges.&lt;br /&gt;But I mean other than that this bitch is DONE! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So ya see there is a definite reason that I don't make a living at this stuff.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-1623229652512948847?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/1623229652512948847/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=1623229652512948847' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/1623229652512948847'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/1623229652512948847'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/07/flash-blogging-cars.html' title='Flash, Blogging &amp; Cars'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-8173628184958968885</id><published>2008-07-06T12:01:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-07-06T12:31:45.181-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Tried to moon the game camera...</title><content type='html'>But that didn't seem to work out... you can thank me now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;The way it is...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright.... as anyone who was there can tell you....&lt;br /&gt;The party last night was an absolute success!&lt;br /&gt;Thank you to Rick and Colleen for hosting the event &amp;amp; everyone that came for making it as cool as it was.&lt;br /&gt;Great fireside conversation and general discussion... we covered all of the basics (of course).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The basic rundown...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;The night started like many before it... but would soon become "One for the books."&lt;br /&gt;The supplies were plentiful and the crowd was trickling in.&lt;br /&gt;Questions abound about the intricacies of lesbianism and it's application... especially as it pertains to trucking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course the game camera was to play a huge part of the evening and I will say a big thank you to Ingrid for playing along out at the game cam. Everyone else that said they were going to go out, did not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Drinking&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes there was some.&lt;br /&gt;Let me just say...  I maintained a buzz that was described as &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"You're Fucked UP!"&lt;/span&gt; several times.&lt;br /&gt;Now in my defense.... I was fucked up. &lt;br /&gt;I have to say Nicole you started it by putting your melon in my mouth!&lt;br /&gt;Woah... THAT Drink was a nice little distraction... I just think it needs a more Manly name...&lt;br /&gt;I think I will call it "TrainWreck!" (and &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;YES&lt;/span&gt; the "!" is part of the name.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;TMI&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes when I talk and there are new people around I see this look in there eyes that is something akin to "okay... I need to back slowly out of the room and sneak away... then I need to get a tetanus shot"&lt;br /&gt;So okay I admit re-enacting the Rite-aid scene where I pretended to have crabs &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;MAAAAAAY &lt;/span&gt;have been a bit much for the first intro night. Work should be fun for you colleen... but I have to tell you after that retelling there were a few people "Adjusting themselves in an uncomfortable way"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Craigslist snapper in the morning&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me just say... there are some things I don't need to see over eggs and bacon and there a some "Missed connections" that are just plain creepy.

I had to break the tie that was made when I lost the &amp;quot;Extreme Go Fish&amp;quot; game to that one eye sword swallower from the bayou... that is a story for another time though)&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Any way... sorry for the delay in blogging or commenting... but I really have been busy doing Work.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;That is all for now I guess.&lt;br&gt;~Later &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-112866798592946277?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/112866798592946277/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=112866798592946277' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/112866798592946277'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/112866798592946277'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2008/06/bring-it-on.html' title='Bring it on!'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-2669929516224004922</id><published>2008-06-08T11:02:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-06-08T11:02:16.072-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Fondled electronics and Texting while drinking</title><content type='html'>&lt;font style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Passed around like a cheap date.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;Colleen and Nicole were fondling my sexy electronics last night.&lt;br&gt; They both have Blackberry envy but I thought Nicole was gonna make sweet sweet love to it. **whispers** It has been like 24hr since she had anything in her....

The conversations that get started.&lt;br&gt;My sides were hurting by the time I crawled into bed.&lt;br&gt; I knew it was going to be a funny night as the game got started.&lt;br&gt;When ever we play a game.... Time &lt;i&gt;CAN NOT&lt;/i&gt; be a factor.... just pitch the sand filled timer right back in the box along with the rules... Because we are just going to play the game however the hell we feel like it and Timing each turn just won&amp;#39;t work. We have an average of three conversations going at any time.&lt;br&gt; So... we made up the rules to fit what we wanted and tried to fit game play in around discussions of the Fonz and anal sex.... &lt;b&gt;NOT &lt;/b&gt;Anal sex WITH the &lt;i&gt;Fonz&lt;/i&gt;.... But then I don&amp;#39;t swing like that. &lt;br&gt;**Does a gesture that draws great attention to his FIST**&lt;br&gt; It may have been the Tupperware that SOME of us were drinking out of...

I should at least blog to say I am not going to blog &lt;br&gt; To be honest this was going to be a short... &amp;quot;Good time last night... not much else to say&amp;quot; kinda blogs &lt;br&gt;That is &lt;i&gt;UNTIL &lt;/i&gt;this morning.&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br&gt; Katie you Harlot...&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am tired and I would like to thank whatever ass-hat called me bright and early this morning to talk.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b style="color: rgb(255, 204, 255);"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia,serif;"&gt;Katie where ever you are... you are a shameless whore. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;For those not in the know let me lay it out for you.&lt;br&gt;I have had my cell # for eleven months now... So it isn&amp;#39;t like I &lt;i&gt;JUST &lt;/i&gt;got it or anything.&lt;br&gt;Well, A girl named Katie used to have my #.&lt;br&gt;and from the caliber of Booty calls that ring out on this thing I am guessing that the number is on a bus terminal men&amp;#39;s room wall or gets handed out by the local chapter of the USO and the UBM at rallies.&lt;br&gt; Any way... Me being the prick that I am... I enjoy screwing with people when they call... but this morning I was just plain tired.

(Okay, I know I am a bastard... but what do I care?)&lt;br&gt; I talked to a group of , Again.... Drunk ass-hats that were Tore-up and watching a game on TV that I could hear.

Like I was reacting to a "Clatter" that wasn't  due until at least ONE more holiday was under my belt.&lt;br /&gt;Using my ninja like reflexes, I responded.&lt;br /&gt;With all of the quickness of a gazelle unleashed with a lion hot on it's ass I was out among the commotion.  The scene was one of pandelerium and utter chaos.&lt;br /&gt;There were close to sixteen rabid house cats two geese and a friggin' drunk chimp wrasslin' in the door yard.&lt;br /&gt;Now I know that most would have shied away from such an Obvious trap....&lt;br /&gt;But this is me we are talking about here... and mista man.... I'd have none of it.&lt;br /&gt;Traps be damned... if the evil forces that seek to cripple and silence my good work were able to put me off of the good deeds which are my responsibility... well... then the terrorist have won.&lt;br /&gt;I am not about to cower to those spineless little bastards that would send a liquor-soaked primate some feathered fowl and infected pussy cats to do their work.&lt;br /&gt;The damn sissies were about to see what happens when you step to me in my own secret lair I tell you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It had started before I could even think through a plan.&lt;br /&gt;So the scene resembled a cheap B-rate slasher film from the seventies... bad edits and all.&lt;br /&gt;I had quickly tied two of the cats tails to one another and began my assault on the remaining forces, using my pussy-chucks as the only weapon ... for the moment.&lt;br /&gt;The geese were hanging back .... waiting.... I kept my eyes on the sneaky bastards.... you can't trust Migratory birds a like I tell ya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The monkey stepped forward and the cats parted to let him through... like it had suddenly become a Kung-fu movie.&lt;br /&gt;Well, all things being equal.... My Kung-Fu is &lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;STRONG&lt;/span&gt;! ...but he didn't know that as I have kept that a closely guarded secret from even my closest allies... my ace in the hole so to speak.&lt;br /&gt;Well... the details get fuzzy but I will tell you the chimp had a reach like Shaq and a hit like a rhino on steroids (Don't ask). A few well placed kicks and it became apparent to me that a swift kick to the  "Monkey Boys"  has the same effect on chimps.&lt;br /&gt;A head lock, and a little "OFF the top rope" action and he drifted off into  a beaten down pile of drunken hurt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I spun around and began slowly making my way to the geese. Stomping down on rabid kittens along the way.  My feet were greasy with the entrails of the feral felines as I found my way to the two water fowl. They had been watching me.&lt;br /&gt;studying my moves as I had battled through the onslaught of cats and the primate barrage.&lt;br /&gt;They had seen most of what I was capable of.&lt;br /&gt;MOST.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I swung first at the feathered beast to my right as it is my dominant hand and I tend to lead, strong and finish with a surprise.&lt;br /&gt;this move was almost my downfall... as I hadn't realized they had anticipated this and the demon of a bird on my left struck as my left side remained momentarily exposed.&lt;br /&gt;I went down hard , crashing to the ground clutching my side.&lt;br /&gt;I know you are all worried at this point... but trust me I made it through.&lt;br /&gt;Hand grasping the wound that had torn through the side of my super suit I tried to gather myself as the pair descended on me, followed by the remaining cats, including the two who were still tied into make shift nun chucks, I had dropped them at some point while battling the chimp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I saw my opportunity as a flash of feathers missed my face.&lt;br /&gt;I bit down hard and twisted.&lt;br /&gt;One goose lay it a motionless pile across me as the other continued its hurried attacks on me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sprung to my feet renewed and plucked the gooses from the ground where it had fallen.&lt;br /&gt;Using his carcass to beat what I thought to be the remaining cats into greasy piles of catsnot, I tackled the last goose. Choking him out, I dropped the balance of my substantial girth upon him in an effort to humanely end his suffering.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was at this point that I, Battered, bruised, torn, and worn out, pulled myself to the porch and tried to go inside with the intent of blogging like I do EVERYDAY &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;*clears throat*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; but... I had missed one rabid cat.&lt;br /&gt;and as I reached a shaky tired hand for the door, the little bastard scratched me and spit in the wound.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Needless to say, That put me in a foul mood so I stomped him and slipped right there in what was left of him. When I came to... days had passed.&lt;br /&gt;I had to RUSH to the special secret Super hero doctors hideout.&lt;br /&gt;but the rain had washed all  the rabid grease spots off where the cats had been before so there wasn't enough brains left over to test for rabis so I had to have secret injections which left me weak and as a side effect I was unable to blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I made up the whole story about nobody reading my crap and thought that I could pass it off.&lt;br /&gt;It seems you are all too smart for me and I can't pull a fast one on you...&lt;br /&gt;So... That is the REAL story of why I wasn't blogging.&lt;br /&gt;I hope it clears up any confusion that I may have caused with that half-assed story from before.&lt;br /&gt;Anyway....&lt;br /&gt;The end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt;I'll Leave you with This... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt;      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;This is just my bit of raving Electro-lunacy to celebrate my return.&lt;br /&gt;I hope you have enjoyed it... because it is all true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;(and by true I mean... don't call the "White coats"... please.) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is all for now I guess.&lt;br /&gt;~Later&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-4446251202536825300?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/4446251202536825300/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=4446251202536825300' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/4446251202536825300'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/4446251202536825300'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2007/11/real-story-behind-my-lack-of-bloggin.html' title='The &quot;Real&quot; Story behind my Lack of bloggin&apos;'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-6028457160181202663</id><published>2007-11-18T11:30:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2007-11-18T11:30:29.228-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Okay Fine....</title><content type='html'>&lt;font style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;So I was wrong...&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;I guess you all do Like to read the crap I write. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" size="4"&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;  Nothing amazing... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;But apparently entertaining, I guess.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;Another Great night...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;Great time...

The in town mother load. &lt;br&gt;Got changed and gathered stuff together. When the &amp;quot;ship&amp;quot; arrived the newly shanghaied pirate and I&amp;nbsp;  made haste to the vessel and were headed to sea.... or at least we could &amp;quot;see&amp;quot; that we were headed out for a night of plunderin&amp;#39; and pilliagin&amp;#39;. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;One Lap around... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;And there was a Ninja &amp;amp; a pirate that were dragging considerably heavier candy bags. &lt;br&gt;and both were acting as if they were getting a little tired.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;Back into the Good ship &amp;quot;Warrior~Mom&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;So we fought our way back to the ship. Dragging chests full of plundered ... (Ok, I was gonna say &amp;quot;Booty&amp;quot; but after seeing all the hoochy-mommas out tonight.... that might not sound right.....) Spoils... yes. Plundered  &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;SPOILS.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Then after the ship pulled into port and we disembarked, we made a quick pit stop and headed off for the rougher waters of West Winterport...

What better time to Mix a stiff drink and not care that I feel Miserable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt; Work... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ride in and Home were the Highlights today.&lt;br /&gt;The new kid is doing good overall... but I feel like I am babysitting on somethings.&lt;br /&gt;It irritated me today, because I ended up sweeping up something at the eleventh hour that should have been done... oh I dunno Monday or Tuesday. Over all he is a good kid... I am probably just in a mood because I don't feel great... who knows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt;And that was when they let the monkeys go&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and I think they bow hunt.... but NOT in the morning.... ya &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; NEVER &lt;/span&gt;get anything in the morning. :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there are those moments when I just feel like someone has got it coming to em.&lt;br /&gt;I take great pleasure in not letting something go if I feel like getting under someone's skin.&lt;br /&gt;Who knew?&lt;br /&gt;So even when I am under the weather... I can be a pain in the ass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt;Just a distraction... nothin' more...  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;So there I was...&lt;br /&gt;It must have been all of noon-thirty when they broke over the horizon.&lt;br /&gt;They started in with the most blood curdling scream you ever have heard.&lt;br /&gt;A lesser man may have run... but to be honest... I had a cramp... and running didn't seem to fit with my "Low impact" training regimen.&lt;br /&gt;I hunkered down low... figuring I could probably use my "Pretend to be hurt and then spring on them like a ninja" move.&lt;br /&gt;I have perfected it... so I knew it was my best bet.&lt;br /&gt;So before they came into range I flopped my way to the best position available.&lt;br /&gt;I could hear the thundering hooves.... or whatever... it sounded scary.&lt;br /&gt;Listening close for an organized battlecry... I heard none.... I  knew at that point this was going to be a different sorta fight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I lay there thinking that I may still have time to pretend to be from outta town or something the first of them crested the slight incline closest to me. The move I pulled next can only be described as Frickin' magnificent!&lt;br /&gt;I mean really.&lt;br /&gt;It even amazed me.&lt;br /&gt;This is &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;ME&lt;/span&gt; we are talking about here.&lt;br /&gt;So after dispatching with the first of my foes.... I pounced.&lt;br /&gt;Grabbing the next combatant by a tassel of hair. Twisting slightly and and dropping my weight onto the form writhing below me. The movement ceased.&lt;br /&gt;It seemed that as soon as One was down another crawled on. battling through the intense pain and ignoring the screams ringing in my ears I fought them. Each one as they came... I meet them on the ground between us... and I put them down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We battled for what seemed an eternity...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soon, I tired and realized that the numbers seem to be fading.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I quickly scaled to higher ground to grab the momentary advantage.&lt;br /&gt;I was hungry and battle weary as the last of my enemies was Laid down at my feet.&lt;br /&gt;Breathing hard and sweating I walked from that place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.... and that was the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;LAST &lt;/span&gt;time I babysat!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I made a sandwich and watched a movie while the kids all slept. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt;I'll Leave you with This... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:courier new,monospace;"&gt;     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;What happens if you are shadow boxing and lose?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is all for now I guess.&lt;br /&gt;~Later&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4898506992978450218-202249179646197212?l=artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/feeds/202249179646197212/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4898506992978450218&amp;postID=202249179646197212' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/202249179646197212'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4898506992978450218/posts/default/202249179646197212'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artisticallytwisted.blogspot.com/2007/09/trying-to-be-funny-with-case-of.html' title='Trying to be funny with a case of the sniffles...'/><author><name>Artistically Twisted</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461182259485279774</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hO1Ywowc-kY/TDfBGvbx0XI/AAAAAAAAACw/3VKlQmUYHMo/S220/MrJack.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898506992978450218.post-3402723992143068396</id><published>2007-09-18T01:34:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T01:34:10.924-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Uuuuum, So I think I remember how to do this...</title><content type='html'>&lt;font style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt;Haven&amp;#39;t blogged in awhile so bear with me&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="color: rgb(153, 102, 51);" size="4"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"&gt; &lt;br&gt;The basics &lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;The flights in were good...

I know what that Strut looks like) ;0) &lt;br&gt;So I asked the guys &amp;#39;Is it just me... or do these guys think that that thing is a &amp;quot;I&amp;#39;m a fucking rockstar&amp;quot; badge or something?&amp;#39; I swear... some of these guys must not get out much... and a few look like they haven&amp;#39;t gotten laid in god knows how long.  &lt;br&gt;...And this just might be my cynical nature so correct me if I am wrong ladies.... But in the list of &amp;quot;guys that you would throw panties at&amp;quot;... Some random schmo at a Trucking industry based Computer convention doesn&amp;#39;t seem like it would rate real high... Hell I may be way off base... But I think not. &lt;br&gt;SO it has been entertaining to watch... I mean you can almost smell the desperation on these guys... that and aqua velvet Limited edition &amp;quot;Manscent&amp;quot; but I suppose there probably is some horned up Trucking industry based Computer groupie.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;~shudders at the thought~ &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Great...

However...&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;Toss one off&amp;quot; is how it came out....

This chick is a total fuckin&amp;#39; headcase! ... And I think she wants to eat my kidneys with some fava beans&amp;#39;  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;My mind was screaming &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&amp;quot;FUCKIN&amp;#39; RUN!!!
