A Favor If You Please

Posted in Uncategorized on May 31, 2009 by thesecondsixtyeight


Hey fam!

I need a little favor from you all. Have a look at the flyer above (click to enlarge) and give me your critiques. Specifically:

  • How are the prices?
  • Language?
  • Formatting?
  • Does it generate interest for you?
  • Any suggestions?
  • Anything else that comes to mind…

That isn’t the actual name, but this is the internet. Can’t be too careful. The part about the “no junk” makes more sense with the actual name. Of course if you already know my name then it might make sense to anyone born before 1980. Maybe…

I am gonna shut up now and let you guys talk. Cause don’t you hate it when somebody asks you something and then keeps running off at the mouth (or keyboard) like I am now?

Being Nice

I have opened up my comment section (for a trial period). So the lurkers and the complainers can come by and say hi too! Of course I would caution those who would use the NEW choices to NOT click the Anonymous radio button. This is my blog and I reserve the right to be a complete asshole whenever I want. That includes deleting asshead comments and spam. So don’t come looking at me all fucked up if I decide to circular file things that are just not appropriate.

And for the record, I would not consider myself an asshole for deleting any comment that starts with “anonymous said…” on GP!

A New Encounter With An Old Blogger

Posted in Uncategorized on July 31, 2008 by thesecondsixtyeight

We interrupt your regularly scheduled post for this special announcement:

Jameil! YOU ARE A DAMN FOOL! Yeah, I said it! Yep! Lemme tell you why…
Every once in a while, I seek to expand my reading. This particular time I found this blog somewhat interesting. Interesting because of two posts. One was about her date, which I found through a link from one of my other favorite haunts. Then I run across this picture post which drew me in initially. Then I found myself not only agreeing wholeheartedly, but mimicking the pictures because my agreement is that deep! And if an onion is linked to salmonella, I may have to take out an FDA inspector or three. I mean you can’t have good salsa without tomatoes, jalapeños and onions! But I digress! That is all run of the mill madness, to me…

No! She not only took it extra, she took it ultra! Cause she pulled THIS shit on me! Speechless doesn’t begin to describe! I almost jacked it! But no way that was gonna end up in THIS HERE manly space! That was so outrageous I can’t help but to blame you for it somehow!

Jameil, I salute you. Because you are OBVIOUSLY more touched than me.

p.s. The regularly scheduled blog post is on hiatus until I get it finished. When that is, of course, I know not… So tune in again kiddies! Same bat time! Same bat channel!!!

7 Deadly Sins

Posted in Uncategorized on July 15, 2008 by thesecondsixtyeight


“You ain’t no saint, we all are sinners. But you put your good foot down and make your soul a winner”
- Jill Scott

At least that is what I am counting on after taking the below quiz…
I got this one from the wonderful and talented Ms. Behaving–> (what the hell is the arrow for?) One of my First Ring Haremites! And I have seen it in a couple of other places. So here I go again…

Greed: Medium

Gluttony: Medium

Wrath: High

Sloth: High

Envy: Medium

Lust: Medium

Pride: Medium

Take the Seven Deadly Sins Quiz

Anger
1. Who did you last get angry with?
The folk I live with…
2. What is your weapon of choice?
Nothing in particular…
3. Would you hit a member of the opposite sex?
The real question is would they start the shit?
4. How about of the same sex?
See # 3
5. Who was the last person who got really angry at you?
IDK. Probably my nephew because I got in his face about being rude and sharing his damn entertainment with me for the Googolth time.
6. What is your pet peeve?
Stupidity!!!! For example, see #5!
7. Do you keep grudges, or can you let them go easily?
Depends on what it is about. But since living with these fools, my skin has become a bit thicker from the constant assaults on my mentals.

Sloth
1. What is one thing you’re supposed to do daily that you haven’t done in a long time?
Exercise (like everybody else)
2. What is the latest you’ve ever woken up?
Isn’t the answer to this question dependent on when you went to sleep? Since I bed with the rising sun often, afternoon wakeups are not unusual.
3. Who have you been meaning to contact, but haven’t?
Too many people to name…
4. What is the last lame excuse you made?
Shit, if I used it, it wasn’t lame! Probably “XYZ is a dumbass and I just didn’t wanna waste my time talking for nothing!”
5. Have you ever watched an infomercial all the way through (one of the long ones…)?
LMAO! Several. And a number have watched me all the way through too! Hell I was even dreaming about how to make a killing in real estate by buying foreclosed homes!
6. How many times did you hit the snooze button on your alarm clock today?
Funny you should ask that TODAY. Three. I usually don’t use one but I didn’t want coffee time to be tardy because I went to bed at 8 a.m. Coffee time is noon.

Gluttony
1. What is your overpriced yuppie beverage of choice?
Wha? Are you serious? Me? Yuppie? GTFOH! The only time I have been IN a Starbucks was to find a coffee mug to drink my Folgers outta at home! And I found THAT at the Coffee Beanery! But to say on task… I buy flavored coffee on occasion. Gevalia? Slurpee?
2. Meat eaters are…:
Me! Beef, Pork, Chicken, Fish, Poonany! You know, meat!
3. What is the greatest amount of alcohol you’ve had in one sitting/outing/event?
You know I couldn’t really say. But I recently did have a beer so big that I could do curls and isolate muscle groups with it! Even after the glass was empty! That was one good Killians!
4. Have you ever used a professional diet company?
Wah? :: looking around :: Who makes these questions? Diet? Da hell?
5. Do you prefer sweets, salty foods or spicy foods?
All of the above and not in moderation! THIS IS ABOUT GLUTTONY Y’ALL! Of course I do them in moderation since I have to avoid sugar and salt and soon they will take my hot away too! Mark my words!

Lust
1. Have you ever caught yourself staring at the chest/crotch of a member of your gender of choice during a normal conversation?
Is this a trick question? I was born black, in America and with a dick! I am EXPECTED to do that! And of course the manhoe genes make it a compulsion!
2. What is your favorite body part on a person of your gender of choice?
Imma throw this back at the ladies. Ladies! What is your favorite WOMANLY body part on YOUR body? Cause if I am looking at ya, it probably is my favorite too. Unless you are strange and do not love the gloriousness that you have in favor or something less beautiful.
(disclaimer # 1: Strange, meaning that if you got a B-cup and a 42 inch ass, don’t think for a minute I am gonna agree with you if tits is your answer.)
(disclaimer # 2: Womanly, meaning parts that look completely different on you than they would on the average person of MY sex. i.e. the things that identify you NOT as a man specifically or a human bein
g generally)
3. Have you ever been made a proposition by a prostitute?
Some down right aggressive ones too. Actually it used to be a sport seeing what would be the best sales pitch as I drove by. (Damn casinos and new ball parks! Fucked up everything!)
4. Have you ever had to get tested for an STD or pregnancy?
Nope
5. Is love at first sight really lust?
Not always. I have met folk and become enamored before I saw them. But it usually is…

Greed
1. How many credit cards do you own?
zero point zero
2. What’s your guilty pleasure store?
Linens And Things. What? I am a houseware junkie! I can’t be blamed for that, I like to cook because I like to eat! Gotta have the right stuff! Quit looking at me like that!
3. If you had $1 million, what would you do with it?
ONLY a mill? Well building the dream house is out… Sooo… Kill debt. Trust funds or outright payoffs to move outta my house (one of the two is 18 already!). Find my way to several linked yet unrelated vacations away… Maybe even share!
4. Would you rather be rich or famous?
Rich and shameless or broke and famous? What do you think? Fame will NOT build the dream house, acquire that 300 foot yacht, stock an 8 car garage with exotic sports cars, erase 99% of my financial worries and most important NOT maintain my right to privacy! SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!!
5. Would you accept a boring job if it meant you would make megabucks?
Hell yeah! I did it for minimum wage! Who asks these questions again?
6. Have you ever stolen anything?
Yeah.
7. How many mp3s are on your hard drive?
About 2500 or so. An entire CD collection gets you up in the numbers!

Pride
1. What is one thing you have done that you’re most proud of?
Fatherhood.
2. What’s one thing you’ve done that your parents are most proud of?
I chose to seek education and make something of my life.
3. What thing would you like to accomplish in your life?
Where do I start?
4. Do you get annoyed by coming in second place?
If my happiness or mood is tied up in the outcome, I usually choose not to play. No use in taking the chance on feeling worse UNLESS the stakes are REALLY, REALLY worth it! But in general, no. It doesn’t annoy me.
5. Have you ever entered a contest of skill, knowing you were of much higher skill than all the other competitors?
Was that you at the Trivia Challenge at Dave and Busters? Oops, sorry! But you see we are trying to get enough tickets to buy a…
6. Have you ever cheated on something to get a higher score?
Who me? You mean did i hack my Diablo II characters weapons to make things easier? Did I use the invisibility code to get through the stealth mission in Rainbow Six? Did I get the Simoleon hack for SimCity 4? The mood hack for The Sims? Who me? Not THIS week! Um… Not today! Okay, not in the last 8 hours. But I am just testing out a theory in Diablo II!
7. What did you do today that you’re proud of?
Woke up! Oh and mom got her coffee too!

Envy
1. What item (or person) of your friends would you most want to have for yourself?
They can keep their folks, but there are several nice cribs… Motorcycles… Dad’s BMW…
2. Who would you want to go on Trading Spaces with?
Um. Not?
3. If you could be anyone else in the world, who would you be?
See if he had married a big booty sista, I would really want to be Tiger Woods! But since he didn’t… Jay-Z, if there weren’t mirrors. But since there are… My alternate universe counterpart who is POTUS! But since that means THIS world… Hugh Heffner? But since I would want a few more years… Shit! I don’t know! Can I just take a serious money upgrade and be myself? Okay! Playing by the rules… Maybe William Clay Ford, Jr. That Ford family money is loooonnnngggg indeed!
4. Have you ever been cheated on?
Yep. That is all I am gonna say on that!
5. Have you ever cheated?
Yep. But the wife already knows about it.

Kidz Izz Funnee!

Posted in Uncategorized on July 15, 2008 by thesecondsixtyeight

Okay, this one is good.

The kids decided to have a three way Geekfest. So Saturday was a day out for me. Because The Wife is HORRIBLE at driving to unfamiliar places and is stubborn to the point of not learning places just because she don’t wanna go there, ever. Like on the East Side. So of course since she was driving, she comes to grab her favorite GPS device. Me! And off we go. Had a little lunch while waiting on the third child in the outing to meet up, my big little cousin The Geekmaster. He rode the bus to the spot. And we located him right around the time we finished eating. Turns out he arrived early and stared the Geekfest without the other two. He was already reading and belatedly noticed a text that was asking his whereabouts.

The Boy, The Girl and The Geekmaster went to Barnes and Noble and hung out in the Anime section until they got booted out at closing time. Then they strolled over to the library for the same until that closed. Then they came to the crib and gathered around the computer and watched various episodes of different animated series. The Geekfest went on until about an hour or two after midnight.

During the drive across town they talked about all geeky things anime, hentai and manga and whatever else Japanese and cartoony. Then the discussion turned to The Boondocks. We were all fans and had a rolling quote fest. When suddenly, I spied with a disbelieving eye, THIS place…

go ahead and click the link, I will wait…

Okay, so the conversation went like this…
TSSE: Oh hail naw!!!
The Wife: What?
TSSE: The Male Box?
The Wife: Where
TSSE: Ova There —>

The adults start giggling uncontrollably at the sheer blatancy of it all.

The Wife: I wonder if Charles Pugh is in there…
The Girl: OH! starts laffin’

At this point the two boys are completely bewildered.

The Boy and The Geekmaster: WHAT?
TSSE: The M-A-L-E Box?
The Wife: You know with the male symbol on the sign?
The Girl: Uh hello! Charles Pugh?
Now the car falls into quiet giggles from three of us. You can positively hear and smell the synapses burning, three seconds pass, when suddenly:
The Boy and The Geekmaster: OOOOOOOhhhhhh!!!! Uhhhggghhhh!!!!
The Boy: That’s a gay bar?
TSSE: The M-A-L-E Box? Where would you put your money on that bet?

Now the whole car is DYING LAFFING!
TSSE: Dang! Y’all slow!
The Girl: Could you see their faces if they just strolled up in there as dumb as they are now? (sisters are so mean!)
The Wife: (between guffaws) Y’all stop it, I can’t drive like this!
The Boy: Uh, No thanks!
The Geekmaster: I was like, did they just say? Charles Pugh… Is that a?

Needless to say, their thickness provided us with many more minutes of fun at their expense. Especially from The Girl!

For those not in the know read about Charles Pugh. Yeah he graduated from the same ghetto ass high school as I did! I am proud of him! Even if he put somebody else’s interview on TV that night that my back made the evening news!

Quick Peek In

Posted in Uncategorized on July 13, 2008 by thesecondsixtyeight

Hey all. I bet you noticed that I have been a little sparse after posting slightly more than once a day for the previous month. Well. I messed up and started having a life.

YEAH, YEAH! Before you guys say it, I will say it myself! I SUCK! Well hey! It happens. And I will be the first to admit my sins. But I will still call you guys out here and there.

I also made it to the library earlier. It actually feels good to check out books without hearing “You have and outstanding late fee!” But I digress… Because what I actually did was grab a few geek manuals. Geek manuals being things that you read on your own that relate to your chosen profession. Especially if the job ain’t paying for it. In my case geek manuals are TRULY just that because the large portion of geeks are in the computer field. So I shall be applying my attention to hacking (I got my mind on information security now), web design (something completely new for me), learning Google hacks (gotta make those searches more efficient) and most importantly a book on XML! So if you see things changing around here on a fairly frequent basis, just know that I am trying to perfect my new art. So if you see things that range from fly to hideous and much in between. Don’t worry. I will eventually stop experimenting and settle on something at some point…

I been behind since the holiday. So if I ain’t been by in a day or few, worry not. I will be by to see you and comment till my fingers fall off (if necessary).
