My Final Moments

September 7th, 2010 2 comments

After much soul-searching, I’ve come to the conclusion that when my time on this spinning rock comes to a close, I don’t want to die at work, sitting in my cubicle, wearing a tie.  That, to me, would be the worst way to shuffle off this mortal coil.

And I would want my final words to be “Pump up the jam”.

My favorite quote on writing:

Happy Friday. Seeing as how I have Monday off from work, I’ll see y’all back here on Tuesday. Hope you have a safe and sane 4th!

The Proper Raising Of Children

Forgive me, but I’m a new father and am very impressionable on the proper ways to raise a child.  Tell me, is this the route I should take?

*Throws up the devil hornsRock on!
