If I Knocked; Would You Let Me In?

Most of the things that I write about myself and my friends are true. Some are exaggerated a bit to get a response from the reader. For example (and you have to have read previous posts to understand this): I really am a perfectionist that does not take compliments well when, in my mind, I am under-performing. I am not really an asshole about it (superior maybe). The following are more truths about me:

I do love a good cold, frosty beer; but I rarely get drunk anymore (my wife might say any less). I am the King of (darts in) Okmulgee County and will brag about it alot in my blog posts. I rarely berate an opponent (unless they are a trash talker) when I beat them and take their money.

Bartolina's aka Bart's is my favorite waterin' hole. I had my first beer there when I was 15. I have lived all over the place, but somehow keep ending up back here in Hooterville. But even when I was living elsewhere, I always made a point to try and stop by Bart's when I was in town.

I am a football fanatic (BOOMER SOONER!), and can watch it most anywhere, anytime. Pop Warner to NFL. I am an avid Oklahoma Sooner fan, regardless of the sport and been spotted in Austin, TX (home of the neutered bovines) wearing Sooner clothes.

I am a gambler. I enjoy playing poker and blackjack at casinos. I play poker online a few times a week (I play much better live). I have never been banned from the blackjack tables for counting cards, yet. My friends and I will make prop bets on most anything. Chinese poker is my new favorite card/gambling game.

I have been in the computer business full-time for over 12 years now. I used to make computers better for people; now I destroy them for the gold and other precious metals in them for myself. Plus recycling them keeps them out of the landfills (they're full of lead and mercury).

I am really into making money (and spending it). I've made alot in my short time on this earth and plan on making tons more before I go skidding off to that final resting place.

Everything I wrote about my funeral plans (see blog post "Am I a strange SOB") are 100% true!

I truly believe I am a semi-normal human being. What do you think? Would you let me in if I knocked on your door?

Am I a Strange SOB

Many times, when posting my ramblings, the title I begin with needs to be changed by the end of the story. I think we're good today! My regular readers, I'm sure, will concur. This is a little more about me......part three, I believe...... I am an odd character.

I am a loner, for the most part, that is very loyal to his few close friends. I'm a quiet person, who does not say much, unless, in my opinion, it needs to be said. I don't like a lot of company at my house (unless its poker night) or crowds, in general: But, will go to a football game or a bar and scream, dance and act like a complete fool with a mass of perfect strangers.

I hate death and funerals, but have my own (funeral, that is) planned out (I don't plan to die, but all good things must end). The first part is a joint agreement between my brother and I that whoever goes first, the survivor has to throw a huge drunken Irish wake in memory of the deceased. After the wake, I plan to be cremated (much to my wife's dislike!). Then, at the funeral (this is the part she really despises), all attendees will be given a small envelope with a pinch of my ashes to do with as they wish. Everybody gets a piece of me that day!

No church service (those things only make people feel bad about themselves), but a party. An afternoon/evening/night/next morning in a park or a field with loud music; lots of cold, crisp refreshing Budweiser (and other spirits) and tons of grilled animal flesh! Free beads for all male attendees to use in exchange for whatever they can get from the female revelers! Bagpipes at sunset! Fireworks (or firearms) shot into the sky at midnight! Send me off with a bang!
I'm sure there will be a lot of people that I don't know, and would not have liked, show up for the event............WTF? I'm dead anyway; what do I care?........
