Check out My New home... USS ENTERPRISE CVN65

Okay, so two years later I get around to updating the page. I guess you can say a lot has changed with the layout, along with my life as well. I won't go into too much of that, but I will say that I'm now in the Navy as I'm sure you have figured out by now. I'll post a few more pictures later and write a few more words. And I will promise that it won't take another two years.

It's getting that time in the season again. The clocks have to be set back an hour, so now it will being getting dark earlier and cold; Hopefully! What better way to embrace the changes than by building a nice cozy fire, with friends. What would man have done without it!? Anyhoo, I've been meaning to fix upbackthere before the holidays for just such an occasion. So to all you Dtowner's who are now outa towner's, heed the call of the wild and fulfill your primal desire with a backthere experience, this holiday. Sounds like some crazy kinky commercial. Oh yeah! Speaking of kinky commercials, The Fern Bank has a commercial coming out soon, with none other than yours truly performing the voice over. It's going to be on channel ten sometime in the near future. Halloween is cominng up soon and I'm planning on headin' up to Athens, for some ghoulishly good costume parties.

Other upcoming trips: Some time soon I would like very much to get some peeps together for a camping trip. The time, place, and any others details are still unknown. I would like to go somewhere different though. Maybe North or South Carolina or even somewhere in north Georgia. If you would like to go and/or have any ideas on the subject, just place a comment...

Procrastination ~ yep that is what I do on a daily basis. Hmmm, like this blog that I haven’t updated in almost two months. That will keep the folks coming back for more, huh. Well, here is a crazy story for ya…


The Grim Reaper visits the Fern Bank in Dtown, yet he is subdued until another day. The man whose name I'll just call “lucky”, was just that - “LUCKY”. It happen the week before last out in the backyard bar, at the Fern Bank. Well, lucky had been drinking a little bit and had brought something to smoke. A total of two green ones was burned down and a bowl of Athens’ finest (provided by myself). Lucky had sat down in a chair and I went back inside to continue working. About twenty minutes later one of the cooks came bustin’ through the door shouting, “CALL 911!!” Lucky had just sat down and stopped breathing. I ran out back to see what had happen. I saw Lucky’s girl holding his head saying “wake up, wake up” while shaking his head left and right. I told them to check for a pulse and when she let go of his head and tried undoing his shirt… Wow! His head fell over with his eyes and mouth half open – looking blue; no shit! Lucky did not look too damn lucky at the time. He was dead! A waitress had run to a table of doctors and grabbed one of them by the arm. Dr. Ready quickly checked for a pulse and then asked for a glass of cold water. I ran inside for the water and returned in a rushing panic to get back. By this time, a couple of cops responded to the call, while the ambulance was in route. I had come back inside by then, to prevent over-crowding. Within a minute the paramedics where busting through the back doors. They had to shock him back to life before leaving. The crazy thing is that Lucky went to work the next day and came up to the Bank again. Not only that, the doctors had no prognosis for what had happen. Is that crazy or what!?




There’s some sauce for your burrito!
