First things first, thank you for stopping by my little corner of the Blog-o-sphere. (Get it? Sphere’s don’t have corners! HA! I’m such a nerd) For those of you that don’t know me very well, here’s a short list containing some of the things that I believe in. I hope that it can provide some insight as to why I am the way I am.
1 The DH rule is fucking stupid.
2 Yellow fizzy beer is for wussies.
3 When you meet someone, it’s best to use a solid handshake and look them in the eye when you say “hello”.
4 If you borrow something, return it in a better condition that what you received it in.
5 Don’t say, “I love you” unless you mean it.
6 Joe Sakic can do no wrong.
7 People will come into you life, people will go. Try to learn something from each one of them.
8 If a man raises his hand in anger to a woman, child or animal, he is fair game for an ass whooping.
9 Don’t steal.
10 Give people the benefit of the doubt unless they give you a good reason not to.
11 I will never understand how women think.
12 Eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches along with a cold glass of milk will make you happy.
13 If a friend asks you for a favor, do it. It doesn’t matter if they are ever going to return the favor.
14 Genevieve Gorder is my soul mate (that’s more wishful thinking).
15 If a guy spends more time to get ready than his girlfriend or wife, he should be slapped around a bit.
16 If you accept your mistakes, they become lessons.
17 There shouldn’t be a reason to do the right thing other than it’s the right thing to do.
18 People that are trying to sell you something will tell you what you want to hear.
19 Everyone else on the road has their heads up their ass.
20 Don’t cheat. Play nice.
21 Guys that don’t know how to use simple hand tools are dangerous to be around.
22 Look where you are walking
23 It’s your life, your responsibility. Don’t pawn that off onto other people.
24 Sex is fun.
25 When trying to solve a complex problem, don’t whine about not knowing where to start. Just start.
26 If a woman thinks that you are cute, she will let you know.
27 My arch nemesis is named Brett.
28 Try to learn something new everyday.
29 The only stupid people are the ones who give up.
30 The scientific method.
31 Don’t be afraid to ask for help.
32 Bill Gates is evil.
33 When a woman tells you, “I’ve never done this before”, chances are she has.
34 Listen to your friends when they have a problem.
35 My family will always love me.
36 Dogs rule!
37 If you didn’t vote, don’t complain.
38 Just because someone else said it, doesn’t mean it’s true.
39 Faith should be free.
40 Laying in bed watching a movie with your girlfriend is the best way to spend a Saturday morning.
41 Being a man means that you are ready, willing and able to take care of your loved ones and to put their needs before your own. That’s it. Anything less and you’re just a guy.
42 Just because nobody is looking, doesn’t make it okay.
43 Having someone in your life that you know, beyond the shadow of any doubt, gives a damn as to whether or not you come home, feels good.

1. DH?
4. Are we to assume that this only works when someone borrows something from you and not the other way around? ;)
11. Good because if you did we would need to have a huge meeting to change all the rules and that’s too much paperwork for my liking.
27. do we get more info and hopefully amusing stories about Brett?
Whats DH? And… I agree… I dont understand how women thing either! My friends come out with the craziest thoughts!
Dogs may think they are humans, but cats think they are gods. I think someone told them that once a long time ago. Ergo, cats rule. I could come up with a zillion other reasons why, that actually make sense, but that one works for me right now. It’s late and I’ve had more than my fair share of sense making today.
I’m a recent convert to the PBJ thing. It’s not a common foodstuff in my part of the planet.
33. Meh… Since when?
32. Indeed.
I think I might start doing some reposting.
Oh, and I love me some nerd.
Everyone- The DH rule is the “Designated Hitter” rule in baseball.
Motherhooduncensored- I knew there was some sort of organized effort to keep us guys confused.
Samone- Maybe your friends are just crazy?
Vanessa- Um, since ALWAYS! HA! Oh, and there’s no such thing as a seeing eye cat. Score one for the dogs.
I know I am late… My connection is still ify.
I have 2 dogs and 4 cats…. and 3 goldfish.
This is wonderful. I really enjoy your writing.
11–As long as we love you, you don’t have to.
Nancy- Don’t sweat it. There’s no time clock here.
Lulu- I actually kinda like not understanding how women think. I’m okay with it. That way, women will always be a source of wonder and amazement.
Exactly. Everytime I do something unexpected and my husband remarks about it, I tell him that there will always be new things to discover about me, and new mysteries around the bend. Hopefully, I can always help keep it new and exciting.
They are chicks! Of course they are!
I think you just illustrated 11 very nicely there, dearest… ;)
Dogs smell and bark and slobber and you have to walk them every day. Score a handful for the cats….
Great list, wish more people thought this way.
You should have children, pass these thoughts on to someone who will worship you and believe everything you say to be gospel. I, personally, think you are full of shit. But I like that in a man…
