People still talking about Irene in facebook…

For the past couple of days, people have been freaking out over Hurricane Irene. Some maybe getting tired of hearing about Irene everywhere, but can you blame people? Hurricane’s never really happen around the East Coast. They are well known to happen down South mostly. It’s very rare Hurricane’s come around here.

A lot of people are scared, some think it will be the next Katrina and wreck shit up. Some just don’t think it will happen at all and blah blah blah.  You get the deal. Mixed opinions with Hurricane Irene.

Like everyone else, I’m hoping tomorrow’s Hurricane won’t be too bad. If the Hurricane does start destroying homes, buildings along with flooding, that would be horrible, but I don’t think that will happen. I don’t think we’ll be the next Katrina. It could happen, you just never know.

I wish everyone good luck and hope everyone stays safe and stay alive. While the weather is safe today, have all the fun while you can because you just never know what will happen tomorrow. Today, I’m going to plan on trying to finish “Duke Nukem: Forever” video game since I’m on the final boss now. I’m also going to watch more of “Dexter – Season 5” today and watch a movie later tonight. Might as well get all my entertainment in before the madness tomorrow.

Tomorrow is an interesting day. When Irene gets here, I’ll try to shoot some video to see what it’s like out there.

Shopping today…

At the mall today, I did pick up a few things. Here’s what I picked up…

– Dexter “Season 5” on DVD

– The new Jeff Bridges album

– “The Big Lebowski” Limited Edition Blu Ray

– “Wrestling With Hulk” novel by Linda Hogan

“The Big Lebowski” Blu Ray was on sale for a good price, so I couldn’t say no to that.

As for the Linda Hogan book “Wrestling With Hulk”, I’ve been wanting to read it for a long while, but I haven’t gotten around to buying it yet. She bashes Hulk Hogan throughout most of that book and I’m just curious of what she has to say in it. Plus, I find her kind of hot in a weird kind of way. Anybody that hates Hulk Hogan gets my support. I can’t start reading the book yet though, there are several other books I need to catch up on.

I’m going to take a break from watching “24” on Netflix and start watching “Dexter – Season 5” on DVD this weekend. I have never seen “Season 5” of Dexter and need to catch up with the rest of the show before Season 6 gets here.

The reason I view comments before posting them because I want this site to be a friendly community. I only accept comments posted publicly if you join in a topic with intelligent replies.

It’s sad that some people can’t let the past be the past, I’m about moving forward in life…

The title of this topic is true. The title of this topic says it all. I’ll admit it that sometimes the past does come back to haunt me. I’ll admit it, that I’ve made my mistakes in the past. I’ve had my share of bad karma. I’ll admit that I’ve said things in the past that may have hurt some people and may have ended friendships because of it. Some people just can’t let the past be the past. I can. That’s what I have been doing. Completely ignoring the past and moving forward.

Some people just don’t change and they will always think of you the same way, no matter how good of a person you could be. If people want to still think of me as this internet badguy, that’s alright with me. Fuck ’em. They need to move forward with their own life, while I move forward with my own.

Enjoying life and being strong is what I’m all about now. I’m tired of people thinking they have control of who I am as a person, they have no right to tell me how to say things and have no control of who I am as a human being. If people don’t like who I am, again, fuck ’em. It ain’t the end of the world.

I’ll do and say as I please. Being who I want to be. If you think about the past too much, then you need help. Moving forward is how you live a positive life, that’s what I’m trying to do. If anybody brings my past up, it’ll probably get ignored.

Reading and writing…

As some of you probably noticed by now, I’ve been doing a lot of book reading. Yes, a lot of it. Mostly fictional stories, celebrity biographies and music books. Why do I read a lot? Not only it’s a favorite hobby of mine. I just love fictional storytelling. While reading, you’re picturing yourself watching a movie in your head. A lot of people don’t like to read, but I do. Reading is good for you.

It’s not really healthy to watch hours of TV, browse the internet, or play video games, but reading books is way better. Reading books is safer for the eyes because you’re not looking at a screen. That’s why I hate those Nook and Kindle things. When people read novels on a Nook or a Kindle gadget, instead of reading from a book itself, that is no different than watching TV, playing with the internet or video games. I would read books on a hardcover or a paperback, not on a gadget thing.

Some of my favorite authors lately are Stephen King, George R.R. Martin, J.K. Rowling, Dan Brown, and Steig Larrson.

I’ve gotten back into reading books again, because I’m thinking about getting back into fictional writing myself. I’ve been planning on it for a long time. I’ve actually tried to go to College to improve my English and writing skills, but can’t go to college at this time, but maybe someday down the road though?

I will be mostly a horror and crime fiction writer. I just got Microsoft Word for my computer so I can get back into writing which I have.

If I upload any of my work for the world to read, I will get it professionally edited (for grammar and spelling mistakes), copyrighted and upload it in a .pdf document for Acrobat Reader. I’m not saying what I’m going to be working on. It’s a secret. I love storytelling. I try to tell stories in song form, but it’s time to get back into writing actual novels and short stories. Will I ever get something published in an actual novel down the road? I’m gonna try ’cause a published author is something I’ve always wanted to be for years. This was my original dream before music.

Am I the one who is the Legend and the greatest of all time???

I’ve been thinking about this long and hard. Is the reason so many people talk about me in youtube is maybe because they don’t want to admit that I am the superstar around here, and not them??? I think they are mad because they know that I’m the internet sensation locally and not them. Could that be the reason why they all come after me? They are hoping to get more publicity off of me ’cause they know I get a lot of views on this blog. Maybe they are mad ’cause they know I’m more entertaining and more talented than them. I think they are just jealous of my fitness and music, plus I am more recognizable online with my web presence.

I mean, even if people don’t like me too much, some people can’t help themselves but talk about me constantly. They still continue to read my blogs and watch my youtube videos.

So maybe I’m the one who is the legend and the greatest of them all. I am an egomaniac and better than everybody.

(NOTE: this whole post is just me joking around and having fun…)

Feuds with people online…

In the past, I used to use this blog to call out people by full name who would start bullshit with me, but I learned it was a mistake in my part. I am adult enough to learn from my mistakes. I learned what karma was all about. I could have continued that if I wanted to, talk about people however I wanted, but I stopped doing that a long time ago. Simply because I didn’t want to be known as an internet badguy. It kept getting me in trouble, that’s karma. I am a better person than to be an internet badguy. Even though I quickly changed my internet personality to a better person, there’s always going to be some people who still think I am an asshole, right? Who the hell cares. I can’t please everyone on this planet.

The point of this blog post is when you put yourself out there for the world to see, becoming a public figure, you’ll get a mix between love and hate. You respond to all the haters, and defend yourself at everything, your life will be nothing but negativity even more. That’s why it’s best to let all negativity of any kind, slide right by and ignore it all.

That guy with the plastic bag on his head (not naming his name but you know what I’m talking about), one day karma is going to get him really badly. When he feuds with everyone like that, he is doing that for the attention of himself. He’s an attention whore, that’s all he is. He just does it as his way of promoting himself and his stupid TV show. He’s never going to change to be a better person. He’ll be like this ’til the day he dies. I just hope one day he goes to prison or goes to the mental hospital, so he won’t be on the streets hurting people on a video camera.

More on real people like us pretending to be famous people…

I’ve said it before and will say it again. There are too many real people like us pretending to be famous people or “legends” online. It’s not just one certain person that I speak of. There are unsigned musicians & bands that think they are celebrities as well. Why do people feel the need to act like a celebrity? I can think of a few reasons what motivates people thinking they are stars.

1) Gossip sites like TMZ and other news magazines.

2) People who get famous over the internet like Justin Bieber, Tay Zonday (The Chocolate Rain guy), and Susan Boyle. People like us thinks we’re going to get fame on the internet.

3) People obsess over social media sites like twitter and facebook.

4) People simply have delusions of grandeur and have giant egos inside of their heads.

Most of you would know that I never acted this way. I never acted like I was bigger and better than everyone else. I never called people “fans” and I always replied to people who would write me.  I also never called myself a “star” or an “icon”. A lot of people want to think what they do is good. They all think they have talent and they think they are important.

Seems like everyone wants fame, thanks to the media which everyone seems to be obsessing with. I don’t come on the internet acting like I’m famous. I come on here to be myself as a person. Period.

The secret to getting good at improvising and lead guitar…

One thing I’m always trying to get better at in guitar playing is improvising, having a good ear and trying to get good at lead guitar soloing. I learned the secret to getting good at lead guitar and making your lead guitar parts sound good with your rhythm playing, you must choose the right scale that is in the similar shapes of the chords you’re playing. The usual minor pentatonic scale can’t be played over everything. I just discovered that secret by doing a lot of reading.

The secret to having a good ear and mastering improvisation is singing along to the notes on the guitar, memorizing the sound of the note in your head. It takes a long time to do, but I’m getting the hang of it. These days, I’m more worried about becoming a better guitar player than a songwriter.

Yep, I’m trying to get better and doing my best. It feels great studying and practicing guitar again.

Superman Blu Ray set so far…

Well this weekend, I watched the “Expanded Version” of “Superman: The Movie” on Disc 2 first. I never saw the expanded version before and it was pretty interesting. There were several scenes that were replaced in the new version and made it a different film. I did noticed the difference between the “Expanded” version and the “Original” version.

I would say that the picture and sound is just absolutely mind blowing as I expected it would be. Definitely a huge difference than DVD. On Blu Ray the picture is sharper, clearer, and you can see more. If you have surround sound like I do, it can get really loud. Louder than your local movie theater.

I plan on watching the rest of it all week. There’s so much shit to watch on these Superman discs, 8 discs in all with hours and hours of footage. I watched all the documentaries on the 2nd disc which is mostly behind the scene stuff, screen tests, and deleted scenes.

I’m done watching the “Superman” set for now, only watched one disc this weekend. I’ll watch another disc on Tuesday. So far so good. I’m loving it.

Tonight, I plan on watching a different TV show on Netflix, because I’ve completed “LOST” last week. I’m all done watching “LOST” and will review “Season 6” soon. What TV show will I watch next on Netflix, now that I’m done with “Lost”?

I’m probably gonna go with “24”. I used to watch “24” on TV a lot when it used to be on but not the whole show. I want to see the rest of it. Love Kiefer Sutherland’s “24”.
