Trucks, big rigs, big supply boats that come with equally big EMD v12 diesel engines....tanker ships with 30-foot tall, 15,000 horsepower inline six cylinder engines.
I wouldn't mind one of those cute 65' crewboats maybe to run drugs around the Caribbean with. YA MON! Now might be the time to take up pirating as a hobby. ARRRRRRRRGGGGGH! I take up a spin on the Galveston to Bolivar ferry by myself every so often to relive the offshore days.
Also, an occasional Cougars, Owls, or Aeros game will do the trick for me.

You scored as Libertarian. For you, government has no right to limit personal or economic freedoms whatsoever. You want government off your back and out of your pockets! For you, national government should be as small as possible, providing only essential services, such as mail delivery and national security. Local authorities have a better understanding of the needs of its citizenry.
I listen to a ton of stuff. Unfortunately, most of it is on CD now because some douchebags here in the H-town area figured that the same recycled Bottom Feeder 40 junk is actually listenable if it is played every hour on the hour. Whomever that was guessed wrong.
AM and shortwave RULE. They have to. ~15 Spanish music stations, some Bottom Feeder 40 crap stations that repeat the same few songs all day and no rock and roll deems H-town radio full of sucktitude. Imagine how bad this would be if H-town wasn't my home! Bunch of front-running idiots running commercial radio now!
How to make Alfred B
Ingredients:
1 part (or less) mercy
5 parts arrogance
5 parts energy
Lebbenty parts of me being me.
Method: Add to a cocktail shaker and mix vigorously. REALLY VIGOROUSLY! Top it off with a HEAPING HELPIN' of wisdom, wit, tough love, and enjoy! This mixture is easy going and goes down smoothly, but bites when taken too lightly. (Why one would do that is unimaginable, but you have been warned. Really.) You may as well enjoy it...you have no choice! Keep in mind: Refills are available, as you will be coming back for more.

Most of the time, you tell it like it is. Even if it's hard for people to hear.
Sometimes you hold back though, because you haven't had a morning snack and therefore are not up to making someone feel stupid just yet...
Honestly, really, the sooner I stop seeing these stupid HD converter box ads on the TV in the rare vent that I watch TV, the better! February 2009 can't come soon enough. So I can pitch my TV out the window.

You Have Low Self Esteem 0% of the Time
Which can be translated to mean, you have high self-esteem and a healthy sense of self worth. Duh.
You believe in yourself, and you know how to be the real you. You love yourself, imperfections and all. Ain't that the truth?
Okay, where to begin? Hey, let's start the legend from the beginning--of sorts. One day, Russell B. (Grandpa Russell has two middle names, you know...), working out of Honduras for a banana boat, decided that the pay blew chunks compared to the US side of the biz and hopped on one of those boats instead. Eventually, he made it to the Julia street terminal at the Port of Nawlins and got the ball rolling to become a US citizen. Soon thereafter, Stella B. (miss you, Grandma, RIP!) and the son (aka Dad) and daughter (aunt Marian) were brought to the US from Belize. After a while, they hopped over to Galveston and along came another daughter (auntie Laura--love you, too!).
Meanwhile, on the other side of the family tree, a bunch of Garzas who were persecuted (Duh, they were Jewish) in Spain and the Canary Islands came over to Monterrey, N.L., Mexico. I believe a Captain Alonso Garza also came on over to the New World by orders of some fools named Isabella and Ferdinand along with some Christopher Columbus guy, who nobody seems to know about. I hear he has his own holiday, but I don't believe it for one second! Heh. This definitely leads to my great grandma Felipa being born in 1907 in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, MX. A long time later. Eventually, the story winds over to my grandparents, Max and Mary R. decide to move from Ohio to Texas with a son and a daughter of their own. Mom goes from making snow angels to....humidity. (Pretty good, huh? More to come, trust me.) Despite that, I am anti-illegal immigration. Well, everyone I can think of in the family is legal, but some genius will try to spin the "We are all immigrants!" schpiel on me. Uh, no; I was born in the USA. KTHXBYE.
Parents meet in high school and eventually three kids come along. Yours truly is the middle kid. Pasadena (aka Pasagetdowndena aka Stinkydena), Texas born, Houston raised, learning the ways of the real world in Alvin, TX. Unfortunately, ten years in Slowtown, USA has been more than enough and it's time to move closer to the job over in Bayport. I finally did on August 13, 2007. I get this funny feeling passing by Bayshore Memorial Hospital sometimes. Can't explain it. Just because that's where I came into the world and all, does it have to be a funny feeling??? I know that's something that hospital is not proud of. I kill me sometimes!
Anyway, I am a pretty cutthroat, no BS type. Yet, I am a riot to be around, I begrudgingly admit. If you don't enjoy my company, you probably don't "get it". I do hate mediocrity, losers, bums, moochers, crybabies, excuse artists, and pretty much any other person who tries to drag you down to their lower level because not only you undoubtedly are better than them, but they pretty much flat out suck and enjoy wallowing in their own sucktitude, if that is really even possible. Sounds like liberalism, for some reason. I never thought Failure was good, though. Striving for excellence rules just a bit, I admit.
Oh, yeah, there is a segment of the population--quite a large segment at that--that wonders just what the heck I am in terms of racial background. No, I'm not Lebanese as one lady thought when I worked at the mall many moons ago because I had the perfect Mediterraneanesque complexion. If I remember right, the rundown is Creole (coonass, hehehe), African, Spanish, Italian, Irish, German, and Mayan Indian all rolled up into one native American package. If that ain't a mutt, nothing is. Just to complicate things further and in a manner you are forced to enjoy, the family tree is spread throughout the Texas gulf coast, the Texas hill country, the MetroPlex, the Rio Grande Valley, SoCal, LoCal, Ohio, Florida, Lousyana, Illinois, and a smattering all across the Caribbean and Central America. Take that!
That is me. Yours truly. If you had been given the option, I'd say something like "love me or hate me", but you don't have that option. If you are Rod Smart (aka "He Hate Me"), then we'll have to have a sit down in regards to that. Maybe HE Really Hate Me. Who knows.
Otherwise, when I am not occupied like I normally am, you can find me in the college sports forum calling upsets for the week or in yahoo answers giving out my usual super automotive advice while at the same time wondering how people get into the stupid messes they ask about trying to get out of.
50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick!
51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese.
71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely.
91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that.
111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt.
131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin.
150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.
My future uberhot, intelligent, witty...Eastern European born and raised wife. If my neighbordude with whom I spoke to outside during the hurricane eye passover really meant what he said about his 24 year old Ukrainian wife, this has GOT to happen. I think the gradjiation present (cruise to Antarctica) comes first, though. The wife thing is subject to change, but I really want that cruise to hold up.
Other than that, I get pulled in many directions with the daily grind, so when I care, I guess I'm not picky. Well, yeah I am. Politically correct sissies need not bother. If I wanted that, I would be one of those loser lemmings, wouldn't I???.
Things are about the same over here. Sorry to hear that you been sick, it's going around man! What do you mean about the pictures? Were you here for new years?
Anyways, I hope you're having a blast now and that the sickness is gone!
