        <blockquote>
<p>How will you be ringing in the New Year? </p></blockquote>
<p> I don&#39;t usually do much for New Years. I used to when I was young. I spent 3 days in bed with a gal starting on New Year&#39;s eve just because it was tradition. Now I&#39;m lucky to get a second look for it. Drinking aint my thing anymore either. I used to drink like a fish for the parties but now I might have a beer or wine cooler. It sux gettin older. Here&#39;s a poem, just because I wrote it. </p>
<p>Peace of Hell</p>
<p>Dark and hot awash in oblivion<br />Blasting away all that was<br />A furnace of neverending torment<br />Is this the worst you have?<br />Is this all that you can do to me?<br />I have lived in times of strife<br />Lived in grief unimaginable<br />Died of a heart broken by the weight<br />Life was the biggest torment<br />Heaven is supposed to soothe<br />Hell prevailed but I am alright<br />For there is still peace in no life.</p>

The only crowd I&#39;ve seen is all the ppl in my damn house. My kids seem to think it&#39;s important to buy shit for the holidays but I keep tryin to get them to spend their money on them, not me.

        <p>I&#39;ve never been much of a blogger. I know this because all of my posts are personal. I don&#39;t blog about scientific discoveries or even christian goobers yackin about mythology. So here&#39;s another personal one. I wrote a poem yesterday about something that hasn&#39;t been a part of my life in a very long time. It&#39;s called <em>Reason. I&#39;ll put it up in a minute. Oh well can&#39;t get the damn italics off so y&#39;all gotta deal with it. My puter is runnin slow today so I&#39;m doin well just to get anything out on it. Christmas is truly gonna suk around here for presents but I don&#39;t care because there&#39;s been quite a few I&#39;ve gone thru with no presents at all. No biggy to me. I still have more ppl in my house than I want and I don&#39;t like at least 1 of them at all. I&#39;m not slowly going insanme because I&#39;ve been nuts for a long time but this is really stretching my meds to the limits. I&#39;d throw everybody&#39;s ass out if they had anywhere else to go. I can&#39;t let even goobers be houseless. Oh well, I&#39;m gettin tired of bitchin because that seems to be all I get done any more. Here&#39;s the poem.</em></p>
<p><em></em>&#160;</p>
<p>Reason</p>
<p>Whence comes the dawn inside my head?<br />The soft bright light of reason<br />Emotions flow but rationality builds<br />Come into the light my Love<br />See by the dawn of the truly fathomable<br />Ugly rears the head of scoff and derision<br />Know that all that can be known is here<br />Know that all that cannot is here as well<br />Is it better in the mind&#39;s eye<br />Or will the brain be just electric?<br />Reason sweet reason brings enlightenment<br />But is it enough for Love and life?</p>
<p>M. Pinnell</p>

<p>Hope y&#39;all like it.</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

<p>Are you prepared in case of a natural disaster? What do your plan and preparations include? </p></blockquote><p> It really depends on the disaster. Earthquake: sit under my kitchen table till shit quits fallin on it. Flood: grab the rafts in the back yard and make for the highway. Fire: grab the hotdogs and marshellows and get a real party goin. Volcanic Eruption: sit my ass in my bedroom and wait to see if it really makes it this far. I live in the midwest folks, no volcanoes. Landslide: grab a boogieboard and ride the wave to the bottom of the hill. Tornado: get my happy ass ready to go to Oz or Kansas, whichever drags me to it first. Hurricane: get freakin wet because those damn things always leave us rain up here. Tsunami: grab the boogieboard and see how good the curls are. Can&#39;t think of any other natural disasters.</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

        <p>I made a huge mistake after my wife died. (WARNING: personal Info) I wasn&#39;t even thinking about sex of any kind after my wife died because grief does that sort of thing to you. I met a gall online in a chat room on aohell. She was fantastic. She was beautiful, talented, smart (debatable), and she had enough money to come see me from all the way out in CA. She was leaving her husband of 7 yrs because he was getting to be a worse freak than when she married him. I had little in the way of a conscience so I didn&#39;t care. As long as she gave me the attention that I was craving at the time I was gonna be happy. She set up to come see me for 2 weeks. I was thrilled. What was neglected was a warning of HPV. Genital warts are a bain on society. It is probably the most common of all STD&#39;s. It&#39;s very wide spread around the country. She came and we had fantastic sex constantly during those 2 weeks. She went back to CA and we ended up going our seperate ways. A few months later I started seeing things growing in the bend of my groin. It wasn&#39;t a big deal I thought as I was already develpoing skin tags so I figured it was just more of those that were sent to annoy me. Ten months later I had a small cluster of the &quot;tags&quot; that were starting to chafe me and worry me. I went to the dr and he gave me the worst news imaginable. &quot;You have an STD called HPV. It presents with genital warts.&quot; I was totally freaked out. I nearly cried. After all my years of staying clean, a few cases of crabs was about all, I was finally regreting my promiscuity. I had 2 other girlfriends after my encounter with CA woman. I couldn&#39;t get ahold of 1 of them but I warned the other and she was pissed, understandably. Altho she did ask me if there was any chance that we could get back together. I&#39;m just the kind of guy most women want to be with. That&#39;s not pride or immodesty, it&#39;s just fact. I told my Debbie about my problem but she said it wasn&#39;t going to be a very big deal because we were going to be together for the rest of our lives. She isn&#39;t suseptible to warts of any kind. She&#39;s never had 1 and probably never will get 1. We&#39;ve been together for 8 years in February of 2010 and she hasn&#39;t develpoed any. I, on the other hand, have had outbreaks regularly constantly. They are annoying at first and that&#39;s a pita but it gets worse. They attract moisture like a sponge and then chafe to the point of bleeding. There is really no treatment other than a cream that you can put on to lessen them or having them burned off with liquid nitrogen. I chose the latter. Sounds crazy to have a dr burn anything off from your crotch but it was the most expedient. I went on Monday to see my dermetologist and have the procedure done. I&#39;m now unable to walk for more than a few steps without great pain in that area. Nothing eases the pain either. There is really no powder or cream you can put on this that will help. Anelgesic creams work for a very short time so it really isn&#39;t worth the money to buy them. So here&#160;my friends I give you warning. BE VERY FUCKING CAREFUL! Do not get this terrible thing if at all possible. It is nearly the most terrible physical experience I&#39;ve ever been thru. If I ever have regreted anything in my life it would be having sex with a woman that has HPV. Condoms can make a little difference but actually not much. This insideous virus can get around them and spermacides don&#39;t help at all. So now my friends consider yourself warned. </p>   <p style="clear:both;">

<p>How old do you think children should be before they join social networks like Facebook and MySpace? </p></blockquote><p> 50! No, I&#39;m kidding. I think it&#39;s not a real good idea for younger, 12-15, to get on these sites. They have too much opportunity for pervs and such to get ahold of them thru these sites. Face it, kids that age are usually disgruntled about their parents and anybody that gives them positive feedback or attention will win them over. Plus at that age they think doing stupid shit like e-mailing pics of private body parts is kewl. My daughter did it. I thumped her head. Call me wat you will but I aint havin my kids tits all over the internet.</p>   <p style="clear:both;">
