Name: Dave (The Bassman) Country: United States State: Texas Metro: Fort Worth Birthday: 6/4/1985 Gender: Male
Interests: I like baseball... I really like baseball, want to know Hank Blalocks SLG% I can tell you (its .487). I like girls, Sometimes they like me, its good when that happens. I love the bass, even though I don’t have a band now, Its cool I still play with myself... er by myself (if only there was a way to go back and fix things I already wrote, oh well maybe someday). Music is always cool, but a very specific type, known to the world as ska, although soft core punk will always have a spot in my hart (right next to the angioplasty.) ska with its two tone beats and brass section is the awesome-est. And I really like Family Guy That show is the shiznizzle… um… Dog… Homie… G-slice…Yo. Expertise: If I had one I most certainly would not have a job at Wal*Mart. Damn my lack of a marketable skill! Occupation: Sales Industry: Nonprofit

| When I was young, around the middle part of October I would start drawing a picture depicting a decorated Christmas tree along with the number of days left until the blessed day, I would post it on the refrigerator along with a list of all the things I wanted, this process would repeat until December the 25. I have changed my opinion somewhat on the subject sense that time. I don't know if it was the stress from my parents trying to figure out how to pay for a Christmas gifts for my brother and I, in fact there seemed to be some relief the year that they said that we would not be getting anything from Santa (Dramatic effect... I was like 19), don't get me wrong there were some good years in there but for some reason the bad ones stick out. Of coarse working retail (the worst kind of tail) during the season doesn't help the holiday much in my book. I think that I finally came to the conclusion that Christmas, along with thanksgiving is a beat-down whenever I drove the better part of the state to spend Christmas with my grandparents, only to find out that they decided to have it the day before, without telling me. Relay if you think about Christmas, if it weren't for the presents, would be on the same level as Easter, a middle-of-the-road holiday with a sun-rise/down service. This does bring up the question if there was a Holiday Coup d'état and Christmas was dethroned, who would become supreme among holidays? The republicans would want it to be national 9-11 day, to be held sometime in November every two years, and the Democrats would want National "Person who really doesn't know a whole lot about politics, just doesn't like Bush" Day (has a nice ring to it, eh) because then they could salute the people who catapulted them into power. My vote for new king of holidays? Libertarian. Can you believe that this started out as a Christmas post? (Also I cant stand that damn "Wonderful Christmas Time" song by that hack Paul Mccartney) | | |
| The other day I got in an argument with a girl at work about the south. allow me first clarify my own personal history so you can better understand where I am coming from. my father's father's father's brother came over from Germany in 1908 he landed in Galveston and eventually made his way to Hill county started a farm and sent word for the others. I dont know as much about my mom's side, just that they landed in Houston in 1907 and didnt leave for fifty years. I said all that to say that as far as the civil war goes I really dont have a dog in that fight, when it was going on my family owned a clock shop in the black forest region of Germany.
It all started when I made a joke at the expense of the rebel flag belt buckle she was wearing, something to the effect of "it's been one hundred and forty years, if it were going to rise again it would have done so by now." this started a chain of conversation that led to her telling me I had no "Southern Pride" I told her to go eat a moon pie and drink a RC maybe watch some NASCAR. Then I made this point the same "Pride" she took wearing the stars and bars is the same pride the Mexicans took several months ago when they waved Mexican flags during their protest. I was told that they were two different things, I say they aren't if anything the Mexicans have a stronger point (the country they support is still around) and if you want them to start acting more American maybe you should start acting more northern, stop saying y'all and start watching Lacrosse. She didn't take to kindly to that analogy so she poured Dr. Pepper on me and stormed out. Score Board: Dave.
In addition I have compiled a list to prove that everything the southerner loves is dead.
The list is as follows;
The confederacy
Ty Cobb
Whitey Ford (Just because of the name)
Lynyrd Skynyrd
J.B. Duke
Dale Earnhardt
Sen. Robert Bird (Not quite there yet)
The Klan
The Marlboro man | | |

| I started school yesterday, I have English at eight in the morning then History and computer logic design to top it all off. I like it, fun times, I think... I know I can handle it, too many people have put to much in me for me to fail. you know some times I think of quiting, sometimes it's a welcome thought, but I can not let the ones I love down, I can not let myself down. I think motivation is a problem.
I'll do nothing at the most, to keep from giving up the ghost, try to keep my shoulders broad, but I am hopeless without God.
