I Would Walk 500 Miles...and I Would Walk 500 More

Dear Reader,


Today it came to my attention that this blog is approaching 400 posts. It is a little while in the future, but I wanted to start a poll.

What should I do that has to do with the number 400 to celebrate?

There are many things a guy could do that have to do with the number 400:

1. I could run 400 miles by the end of the year. (Hence the title of the post...)

2. I could fold 400 paper cranes. (I've done that before. It takes forever)

3. I could hug 400 people in a week. 

There are lots of things that could be possibilities. However, I need your help to decide. For right now, I will be asking for ideas from you, dear reader. Just comment below with your idea or send me an email/Facebook message. Or text me if you have my number. After gathering several ideas, we will create a survey with the most interesting ideas and post it here and on other social media to decide what will happen. 

Share what you think I should do! Of course I will document whatever the outcome and share with you, my friends. It will be a pleasure to see what ideas come out of the woodwork. 


For your enjoyment, here is a clip of the song for today's post, sung by Ted and Marshall, of "How I Met Your Mother."

Dear Readers, Ok, so I can't fit the entire title into the title box. It's a good song, go look it up: "You make me smile." The title can apply to anyone, I've found. The rest of the lyrics would probably refer to a best friend or a significant other, but anyone can make you smile. They all have the own way of doing it. Some are just funny all the time and you can't help smiling when you're around that person. I know some who take care of people so well that you just smile when they're doing something for another. Others you can talk to about your problems and no matter what they say, it seems to make sense and you feel better...thus a smile. Ok, a smile doesn't always come in that case, but people usually smile after that. Anyone can have a blonde moment and make everyone smile because of it. I'm glad I've got friends who can do all of these: have blonde moments, take care of others or have an episode of hyperactivity that you can't he...

Am I Proud to Be an American?

This weekend is the 4th of July, or Independence Day in the United States of America. One of my favorite songs during this time of celebrating the country is "God Bless the USA." The words paint a detailed picture of the beauty of the United States, both in a physical and emotional aspect. Our country is often depicted in a majestic manner such as this, making it seem like the greatest in the world and we often hear those bold words, "I'm proud to be an American."  With all of the issues that have been cropping up over the past couple of years such as impeachment, systemic racism, foreign intervention, and most significantly the COVID-19 pandemic, I have reflected deeply about what we celebrate with the 4th of July. These issues are just a few of the many that have made me wonder about the country we praise so proudly.  Am I really proud to be an American?  Thomas Jefferson wrote the candid words of the Declaration of Independence, which were th...

Dear Reader, Brad Paisley sings a song about how creating a totally different person when one is on the internet. It is a funny take on how people change themselves to look better on websites like Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, or whatever other sites you can think of. It is a song geared mostly toward meeting people for dating. I'll share a couple of my favorite parts. I work down at the pizza pit And I drive an old Hyundai I still live with my mom and dad I'm 5'3" and overweight ... But there's a whole 'nother me  That you need to see Go check out Myspace 'cause online I'm out in Hollywood I'm 6'5" and I look [darn] good I drive a Maserati I'm a black belt in karate and I love a good glass of wine ...
