THE TRUTH

(started in March of 2018, paused during summer of 2018 while I figure out website plan)

…still paused as of COVID…

…still paused (probably permanently at end of 2022) and I will eventually replace with something when I get some free time.

(I promise to get back to this, but just focus recently on my blog writing)

  1. I truly, in my heart, miss glam rock and hair bands.
  2. Seinfeld is best comedy of all time, and it is not close aside from Cheers.
  3. I was in love with Belinda Carlisle most of my teen and 20’s.
  4. If you combine taste with healthy, Cheerios is the best cereal ever, and I once ate them so fast in handfuls from my hand that I jammed one up my nose and we had to call a doctor.
  5. I feel more comfortable in water than on land…like a slower, less powerful Aquaman.
  6.  Not sure if is because I am getting older, but I love every, single thing about the sport of golf.
  7. I firmly believe that whatever age you are, if you were from the Philly area, Rocky songs STILL pump you up.
  8. The best sports days of the years are the Final Four Saturday and Masters Sunday.
  9. Eddie Van Halen is the best guitarist of all time, and John Sykes is the most underrated ever.  Don’t know John Sykes?  Look up songs by the band Blue Murder or look on the album cover of Whitesnake-Whitesnake, and know they needed TWO guitarists to replace just him.
  10. I admit to liking Van Hagar better than the Roth years.
  11. I don’t care what else LeBron accomplishes, as Michael Jordan will be the best basketball player of all time in my mind…until I die.
  12. I admit to getting hooked on The Voice partially because of Blake Shelton’s coolness and my semi-man crush on Adam Levine.
  13. I wish I could tell people the feeling I had when Mike Tyson got knocked out, but it is like showing someone your pics of the Grand Canyon…not worthy unless you were there and IN the moment.
  14. I think people who wait for bathroom stalls to drop their kids at the pool are weird.
  15. It is true I was cheered Sterling Sharpe taking off his shirt in his prime at a Jim Rome show, and only felt a little off until I looked at all of the dudes around me doing the same thing.
  16. I think football refs with something besides a deep south accent account for about 3% of all refs.
  17. I think ALL places should have as many delicious sauces as Chick-fil-A and Arby’s.
  18. Free pizza is the best thing on earth, and I am not even picky on the quality of that free pizza, and have even created within my anatomy a Pizza Stomach, which allows me extra available stomach space in case I have just eaten a full meal and free pizza becomes available.
  19. I would be lying to you if I didn’t tell you my aspirations were to make enough money simply to move to Belize to live out the rest of my life with my toes in the water.
  20. The Princess Bride is the best comedy movie of all time and it is not even close.
  21. Something that confuses me but I don’t want to know the answer to is how Velveeta cheese can…just sit out and still be good.
  22. I admit to going to fancy restaurants with a multitude of things on the menu and still order mac and cheese.
  23. Unless you are going for a totally different FLAVOR, Reduced Fat Cheez-Its are actually better tasting and crispier, and don’t get fake cheese crap on your hands.
  24. I don’t look to trade lives with people that often, but I bet you that LL Cool J has lived a pretty stellar life.
  25. I think that if I had an identical twin, I would think about the most devious schemes I could to confuse others.
  26. For Denver restaurants, Colt and Gray is NOT worth the price tag of the meal, but bring your credit card, as Guard and Grace IS worth the price tag of the meal.
  27. Magic shows are so cool to me that I don’t even care about HOW they did the trick…I just want to be confused and happy.
  28. NFL free agency action needs to be a different week than the leadup week to March Madness.
  29. I am confused as to whether I missed seeing the aioli on restaurant menus or whether it was just invented, but I am game for dipping aioli into anything on the plate.
  30. U-571 is an extremely underrated flick when it comes to any movie, especially any type of warfare movies, and was one of THE McConaughey gems when he still made total fun of him before…he got decent.
  31. Seriously, why is Southwest allowed to be what he wish was normal and let customers change and cancel flights so easily??
  32. When I time my walk crossing a street to go right behind you after you pass, cars on street, do NOT stop and let me cross first as that irritates the hell out of me.
  33. I think my two favorite fast food places for dipping sauces are officially Chick Fil-A and Arby’s.
  34. People think it is overkill to write down workout numbers for reps, but when you are competing on the next set against numbers on a paper that won’t change, it avoids you taking the easy way out.
  35. My favorite hot sauces rotate between the regular Sriracha, Tabasco, and Cholula, but my preference is whatever new and unknown is put in front of me.
  36. I like spiders and snakes, and it is true I focus more of my fear on getting robbed while naked in the shower and dying by a swarm of killer bees.
  37. Not sure if hell is general for everyone or personalized, but I know mine would be listening to Don’t Stop Believin, Hotel California, and Love Shack over and over should I go there.
  38. I might have stumbled into the brilliance later in my life, but gravy in any breakfast skillet is just magical.
  39. I like the quote I heard in Only the Brave last night “You have to know what you can WITH, and can’t live without.”
  40. I love traveling, but still love getting back to the States, where I can be my American self again.
  41. I think if I had a son, I would push him towards being an NFL punter, as he would be in the glamorous sport of the States, be paid a hefty salary, he would have less competition as kids who can kick play soccer and kids who play football want high profile positions, and people would be penalized for touching him.
  42. Celebrities look funny on screen in super hero costumes.
  43. I used to be a BIG time Lonzo Ball supporter, but I admit that his dad’s antics have made me totally want the entire family to fail.
  44. I truly love the Aquaman jokes on Family Guy.
  45. Watching Caribbean Life on TV is partly motivating, and partly depressing.
  46. I hope they are coming out with Jurassic Park movies when I am elderly, as they never get old.
  47. Watching a show with MJ highlights can pass ANY amount of time.
  48. MoviePass is the best thing ever, and those who don’t have it I will never understand ($9 a month!).
  49. I firmly believe in putting cream cheese on about everything.
  50. Google Docs are something I am so impressed by every single day.
  51. I think if I was a celebrity, I would do Drunk History in a heartbeat.
  52. I feel like both Eddie Murphy and Bryan Adams had odd 180 degree turns as Eddie suddenly became NOT funny and Bryan Adams suddenly became NOT cool after Summer of 69.
  53. McDonald’s fries are the only fries that do NOT need dipping sauce.
  54. More coming soon…
