Getting the Creative Juices Flowing

Hey there.  You know... it's been awhile since I wrote any poetry or composed a short story.  I remember a time, back during my elementary and JR high school days, where I would spend most of my free time writing.  Whether it be some pretty half assed poem or a quickly written story.  It was something that I liked to do during my free time and it's a skill that has definitely been placed on the back burner, along with writing music, drawing, and other things.  Well, I saw a pic of a friend today and captioned that she was handling her very first short story.  She commented on how she has these ideas but never had a chance to get them on paper.  That seems to be my story as well.

Well... actually... I do start some of them, but never had the time to finish them.  I've gotten to the point where I had the story planned out, I've had the characters mapped out, and I've actually had a chapter or two finished, but I never got over the hump of actually finishing the damn thing.  Well... this time I'm determined to get it done.  There are no excuses as to why it can't be accomplished.  No more are writers bound to pencil and paper.  There are laptops, computers, and mobile software that allows the potential poets and authors of the future to get those ideas written before they are lost to obscurity.  It's happened to me many times before where an idea comes to me but is gone before I've had a chance to write it down.

Today, I feel inspired.  I'll be posting a poem later today and hopefully, get started on a new story.  Starting from scratch.  We'll see how this goes.  Thanks D!  Later!

The XPE Series: The Latest From Dual Electronics

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Dual Electronics. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hey there friends.  I recently wrote about my disdain for my car's audio system. It simply does not compare with all of the great systems that are available. It doesn't even compare so some of the standard stuff that we see in cars today! This is why I have taken great interest in the Dual Electronics website.  Their mobile audio accessories are top notch and I'm glad that they've rolled out their latest innovation in amplifiers: The XPE Series.
With amps of 400w, 800w, and 1000w, the XPE Series has an amp that has just the right amount of juice for your listening pleasure.  Here are some of the general specs of the amps:

• PWM MOSFET power supply
• 2 Ohm stable stereo operation
• Class A/B output design
• Stereo/bridged simultaneous operation
     - XPE2700 and XPE4700
• Bridgeable operation
• Extruded aluminum heatsink
• Barrier strip connection terminals
• Side mounted controls
• Auto-reset speaker short circuit protection
• Speaker short circuit protection
• Reverse polarity protection
• Bi-color LED status indicator

You definitely get more bang for your buck by getting the 1000w XPE1700 and you'll definitely add a little awesomeness to your vehicle with a powerful sound system backed up by this amp.  I'm tired of rolling around with an old car system.  I'm tired of looking at that cassette slot in my car.  We're now in the 21st century and we should have a much more modern sound system in our car.  You can't go wrong with Dual Electronics amps. Check it out friends and pimp out your system. Later!

PMS - It's in the Bible

One Sunday, a preacher was telling his congregation that all can be found in the bible.  Old or new human experiences are mentioned, at some point, in the bible.  After the service, a woman who attended mass, came up to the preacher and questioned the his sermon.

"Father, great service today.  However, I don't believe that the Bible mentions anything in regards to PMS."

The preacher took this as a challenge and told the woman to come back next week and he will show the woman where she can find the passage on PMS in the Bible.

The following week, after mass, the preacher seeks out the woman, with Bible on hand. 


"Miss!  Miss!  I found you!  Here is the passage on PMS in the Bible.  And I quote, 'And Mary rode Joseph's ass all the way to Bethlehem.' "
