the end.
just drifting
subtitle: it seemed like a good idea at the time
I think this is my first “I’ve got nothing today” post, and I’d love for it to be my last. Yesterday’s post is well on it’s way to being one of my most popular ever. You’d think I would have realized that with the title and the picture. Oh well. Looks like I’m not the only one easily amused.
Today just feels awkward. I love the way that word looks like what it means.
I’ve made this statement before: All the questions don’t seem to be getting us anywhere. Which won’t stop me from asking one more.
I guess I’ll just cue the video and ask it:
Do you trust God?
Meet Christian Hotties!
subtitle: sometimes y’all make it way too easy…
I like Rex Barrett. But sometimes I get the feeling that you aliens think just because you’ve met me, or talked to me on the phone, or have some other reason for knowing more about me than just what you read here, that you think I’m “safe”. Let me splain something to you, Lucy. Tcha… you know what? Uh-uh! (grin)
This young lady pops up as part of a site that gives access to meeting Christian singles in online chat rooms and talking to them. I guess for the purpose of arranging a date offline. Because I can’t think of a single OTHER good reason for chatting with this young lady online. Not to mention, I bet you don’t get to chat with this particular young lady. So, what’s the frequency, Kenneth? What possible reason could there be for this particular young lady to be a part of the online greeting for this “meet Christian singles online and chat with them” site?
Oh, I get it! It’s so all of you guys can think “hey, I know a single young christian man that would love to take such a pure young woman of God out to Starbucks for a cup of coffee, or to a small group meeting, or to our church’s singles prayer group.” Yep, I’m sure that’s what you guys are thinking. Did I mention that you probably don’t get to chat with this particular young lady?
Stop staring at the picture and read the post. I know. I’m a bad, bad man! (grin)
But back to Rex Barrett, a friend of mine who has “met” me in person several times. Why, he even gave me “kudos” at his first Meetup thingy. I’m sure it’s just a random “Ads by Google” advert that Rex in no way specifically picked to appear on the ProjectOKC blog post that he wrote. Which in this case, is so perfectly titled: “Does rain fall on the just or unjust?” I don’t know how adverts work, but I bet they are auto-generated in some way by Google, and the only real choices you have are like: No x-rated ones on my Christian blog, please, or something like that. And this one isn’t. But the advert link really does say “Meet Christian Hotties”. Honest!
You might not even get that advert when you go there to read his post. But I did. And I just couldn’t resist using it to make this point. Sometimes, y’all just make it way too easy…(grin)
Wanna get to know me better and be my friend? Sure. But just remember the warning on the label: fun, not safe.(grin)
Yeah, I know. Get back to work on part 4. (grin)
slouching towards Bethlehem
Subtitle: Can we talk about the “O” word?
Orgasm! Hah! I bet you thought I wouldn’t write it!(grin) OK folks settle down. There’s a reason. Don’t get all up in mah grill. I’m not going to turn this blog into a filth fest. Not that I couldn’t if I wanted to, really. Have I mentioned, Not an alien?(grin).
Let’s look at the word for a second though. What does it mean? Oh, and before we go any further, yes, I’m still working on the engine of perfection part 4. Thus the title. Everytime I get a sentence on it done, some great new idea pops up that I just have to get out first. So, here we go: Orgasm! Heh heh, y’all are gonna freak. More about Orgasms after the “more” break.
Almost finished mulling it over
Subtitle: Want a look under the hood?(grin)
I got off to a pretty good start on part 4 of the engine of perfection today. I really think y’all are gonna hate it. (grin). It should be my least popular post of ALL TIME! I can’t wait. Here’s a little “look” at my thinking process. After the “more” break.
More Observations
subtitle: “It’s the Shadows That Frighten Us“
I seem to be succeeding at driving you aliens as crazy as you drive me. Good! That was my first and foremost goal when I started all of this. And I mean all of it, not just this blog. You see, I had given up on God and His church in all it’s manifestations. I was going to hell. There was no two ways around it, and I was tired of screwing my life up trying to achieve the impossible. More after the break.
the engine of perfection; part 3
subtitle: Reality Check
subsubtitle: the need to violate trust
Are you trustworthy? Really? Why should I believe you? Oh. That old thing about your word being your word? Should I get a release form for you first, sunshine? Just in case, you know, we talk and you find yourself needing to tell someone what we talked about.
Me? Of course I’m not trustworthy. Not an alien. Or did you forget? I have no motivation to keep your secrets, unless you’re my boss and can fire me, or my family and can feel betrayed, or my friend and I want you to remain one. Human nature. You’re all grist for my mill.
Here’s an example. Kind of. After the more break(grin).
be careful what you wish for
subtitle: I never seem to get these parts about me finished…
So I had this great idea for a post, (that IS what I think, they’re all absolutely brilliant! grin) and like a lot of my “great” posts, it turns into some kind of freaking MONSTER in my head. No biggie. Just divvy it up into parts, I tell myself. Speaking of which, more after the “more” break. (grin)
pressed
subtitle: into hiding
I’m going into hiding again for awhile. If you haven’t known me long or well, you don’t know this side of me. So, in the interest of “transparency”, I just thought I’d mention it. All this activity over the past few months is wearing my public face out. No more public appearances for awhile.
Time to drink from the waters.
Gotta love Mad Men. What? It’s my latest pick to make prime time. (grin)
