Why I Love This Sport

NFL football is my favorite sport, because the NFL propaganda machine is the most brilliant. Gridiron faster than soccer in real life so soccer is completely obviously boring.

Baseball, I remember the 1991 World Series in the Humphry Metrodome, is a great game. North America and Japan play it consistently. Baseball is popular in Australia. I remember seeing baseball every summer on Fox Sports Net.

Why I Don’t Travel

Traveling is expensive and there is Internet connections. Cisco is building video-conferences rooms all over the US to make traveling other than vacation obsolete. Vacations only last in pictures anyhow. Materialistic objects last a lot longer. I am a materialistic person. I'd pick a Honda motorcycle over three Walt Disney World trips.

1990s Nickelodeon

It is good that some of these shows such as The Adventures of Pete & Pete, Rocko’s Modern Life came back to TV. I was scanning the Nickelodeon shows one day and the 2000s aren't any good (like Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz) I am going to rate them best to worst.



1. Adventures of Pete & Pete 9

2. Rocko's Modern Life 8.8

3. Salute Your Shorts 8.5

4. Are You Afraid of the Dark? 8.5

5. Clarissa Explains it All 8.5

6. The Ren & Stimpy Show 8.0

7. The Secret World Of Alex Mack 8.0



I watched every episode of all of these TV series. I hope Generation Z enjoys it as much as I did.

The Person I Admire Most

Other than God, I admire Pres. Ronald Reagan. His economic ideas worked. He allowed Vietnam and Afghanistan War bankrupt the USSR. Nuff said.

My father has a masters in teaching, but he isn't epic on the grand scale. Above average doesn't do justice for this entry.

Why I Hate My Hometown

I hate by hometown, because after high school nobody visited me monthly. Facebook started in 2004 and everybody was supposed to meet up on facebook events since 2004. I preferred to blog. There is little to do in Hudson, WI. There is no zoo, museum, Imax theater, fair grounds near Hudson, WI or St. Croix County. I require a bachelor degree to date someone from okcupid, match.com, etc to have a girlfriend to support a family. The available women on the social dating websites are ugly. I can self diagnose why I am girlfriendless. I know I don't have time for short time dating while earning my bachelor degree. Bars are for feeling sorry for yourself or drinking contests, not for dating. I spend a lot of time on okcupid so websites don't work.

My Parents were slightly different

Our parents cooked, for three hours. They did pizza, pasta, Italian foods, waffles, hamburger soup, Tomato soup, Pelmeni, pasta, chicken alfredo, Spaghetti, Fedelini, Capellini, Agnolotti, Cannelloni, Lazonia, Beef Stroganoff, soul food (mashed potatoes/beef or turkey/pees/squash), beef stew, hamburger soup, omelets, stuffing.



They weren’t afraid to discipline me. For the most part. They weren’t afraid of looking like a “bad parent” at the mall. They weren’t afraid of telling us we were out of line and punishing us accordingly



They weren’t parenting philosophy zealots. My parents went to my beacon relay meets track and field meets and cross country. I was into videogames, cross-country and track and field in 1999. I was a decent racer, placing 3rd or 4th on many beacon relays. I believe his parents would never see him at track and field.



Our family knew the value of money. Probably not that well, but no new vehicles for certain. We mostly bought computers and videogames, due to my 1990s culture. Even today, they didn't spend money on a new TV very 4 years! My parents updated TVs every six years. They didn't buy the most expensive cameras (entry-level SLRs). They used that money for a fifth wheeler and college education. Degrees are forever. My parents are heavy Sturgeon's Law followers. They buy everything on sale and aren't as materialistic as younger americans. We lived in a nuclear family.

Stupid trends in the 1990s

5.

1.



Cargo pants look great any decade, because it is standard military uniform for the public. It has wide usage in the Army. Bell Jeans are stupid



4. 2. Teal



An excuse not going green or blue.



 



3. Sitcoms with low IMDB scores



Shows like Home Improvement with tired plots and obvious and usually mediocre jokes. 90s network TV was full of schlock like Friends. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia never would have aired 15 years ago. Now there is battlestar Galatica, Wired, 24, South Park,



2. Tribal Tattoos







These things actually come from New Zealand natives or such. They are very popular due to their neutrality. The star and Eagle tattoos are supposed to be better.



1. Vanilla Ice




Stupid rap.
