About me: Lately people have been telling me I am smart. What a scary thought. If I am one of the smart people, society is in trouble. Most of the time I can't remember where I parked. Recently, I had to Google myself to remember my address. I still have not figured out how to talk to people. Thirty-two years and I am lost as ever. So I try to make myself better. I try to learn about things I don't understand, listen to people I disagree with, and try not to break anything.
What I do know is I am super lucky. I have a beautiful girlfriend who makes me happier than I ever imagined. I need to learn to tell her that more often. My friends and family are the most incredible people in the world, each of them surprise me continuously. People pay me to try and make them laugh. I often wonder why they keep paying me, but I am going to ride this train till it ends. I get to share my ideas with the world. How cool is that? Like my thoughts and ideas are any more valuable than anyone else's. I travel around the country complaining about things, compliments are never funny.
I hope one day everybody will get me. But when that happens, I will probably suck. NSync, Backstreet Boys, and New Kids On the Block sold a lot of records. So I guess being unknown means I am talented right, probably not. I just hope people will remain open-minded enough to consider what I have to say. I don't want to offend anybody, but I can't help if you find me offensive...
Who I'd like to meet:
This is the scariest thing I have ever seen. Why are Palin supporters so vile?
:) Hi. It was truly a wonderful Friday night and Saturday day seeing you. I never got to see you or Lisa until now and I feel sorry that I've missed some of the best years of my cousins lives. However, life is great because it's offered us a chance to meet up again. Congratulations on Malcolm. My parents had a wonderful time at your show and couldn't stop talking about all your jokes and how well you did. :) So proud to have a you as a cousin! Enjoy Dallas for us! We miss TX so much!!! - By the way, I guess you could say you turned out 'great' :) he he
