March 24th, 2012 - In Rememberance....

hey everyone...


Usually, on here, i rant and rave, and bitch about things that have pissed me off, or bother me, but today, i have to change gears for a good friend, who died this morning: Cody Ott.

Now, Cody was no saint. he never claimed to be. BUT, he was the guy who anyone could get along with. he went out of his way to have a good time, and to take care of his friends when they needed a hand up, a shoulder to cry on, someone to hug, things like that. Hell, he helped me and my now ex-wife move into the house we lived in next to the bar we met him at. He made it a point to help his fellow human, and to enjoy life on his terms. This morning, i found out through facebook, and through friends of mine, that he had died of a stroke upon returning home from the bar hes been going to. i dont know the details, but its still sad to hear about one of my friends passing on, and moving onto the next life. I, personally know, that heaven now has one very beautiful voice, and a great man up there, to look down upon us all. God Bless YOU, Good sir, and Godspeed unto your next adventure.


I hadnt seen cody in months upon writing this, but that doesnt mean i dont have love for the man, the things hes done, or the life he lived. he truely lived his life on his own terms. he was always happy when i saw him out and about. I always made it a point to hug him, and call him brother and friend. my only hope is that alot of us left here on earth can life a life like he did.


so, later tonight, as i go with my girlfriend to sing kareoke, and relax a little, even though i usually dont drink, i will have a alcoholic beverage (just one..lol), raise my glass, and bless Mr. Ott, and honor him with a drink, and a song or two.


like i said before...


Godspeed Cody. I Love You.


Your friend...

Mad love to you all. And Do me a favor. if any of you are out and about tonight, and have a chance, raise a glass, whether its ice water, tea, coke, beer, bourbon, whatever, and say a toast in Cody's Honor. HE definitly deserves it!

-FIN-

March 1st, 2012 - Hobbity Update!

Hey kids.

No bitching or ranting this time around. just a few updates on some things going on, and some thing that are in the works...


- Im moving into a house over this weekend. me and the roomies are gonna look into getting the net at the new house, so i can start doing my blog, and various other plans (see below...) from my house, instead from work, when i get here early to syphon wifi from the hotel across the street. this will be a good thing, all around. the new house has a office room, which will be the "computer/office/media" room, once unpacked and decorated. wish me luck!

- after the "office' is set up, im gonna take my new digital camera, and a video editing program, and some free web tools/website hosting, and start up a video podcast, thanks to the influence of some friends of mine who will mentioned below this note. i have no idea what im going to make the podcast about, but it will be semi-separate from this blog. i bitch and complain and vent on here. the upcomming video podcast ill more than likely be geeky, funny, and things like that. music, comics, nerd stuff, geekgasms, ect, ect... and I WILL get alot of you to be on the podcast with me. you have been warned..!

-My friends Corey Kirkpatrick, Jared Howell, and Brad Bamforth have their own audio podcast going on called "Return of The Living Podcast". its all about haunts, horror movies, and other geeky stuff, and these guys are close friends of mine. go support their podcast and support them, as you would support me! the link for their site is: http://www.returnofthelivingpodcast.com/


and thats it. more to come, after i get all moved in, and set up. be safe, everyone, and hey, spread the word about my friend's podcast...! they could use all the hits and listeners they can! support your local podcast!!!!

-mad love.
