30 Day Writing Challenge: Day 6 - 5 Ways to Win My Heart

Day 6 - 5 Ways to Win My Heart.

This would be easy if my heart could be won.  Not so easy.  I could be glib and say:

Do things my way.
Do as I say.
Do what I want.
It's about me, me, me.
SEX.

But that's just insane and not true.  I wouldn't want to be in love or be loved by a Stepford Wife.

Here are my basic 5:

1. Intelligence - You need to be intelligent.  I don't want someone to be a brainiac but
you can't be a complete idiot.  I need to be able to have a conversation with you.  Share ideas.  Agree and disagree.  Of course, if you throw your intelligence in my face, I'll cheat on you with your best friend and throw that into your face.

2. Passion - You need to be passionate.  About me, about something.  I don't need a wallflower in my life.  Hopefully, you like the same things as I do.  This brings us to...

3. Common Ground - We need to have something in common.  Be it TV, Books, Movies, Museums, etc.  The more we have in common; the more you can capture my fascination and my desire to stick around you.

4. No Gifts - What impresses me is not a lady who wants to buy me things.  I don't need things.  I can get my own things.  What I can't get is a hug, a cuddle or a kiss without YOU.  That's all the gift I need.

5. Independence - Respect my need to be independent as I would respect any of your needs.  I don't need a Mommy, a babysitter or a clingy soul sucking succubus.  Be a friend, confidant and lover.

Of course, none of the above would matter if you look like this.  I just ain't gonna happen.

How The New Mexican Government And Prison System Failed Its People

Anyone who knows me knows I like mystery and crime stories, especially true crime. So, I am a huge fan and viewer of the Investigation Discovery network. I view many programs and have my favorites. One show I recently stumbled upon was "Surviving Evil" hosted by the stunning actress, Charisma Carpenter , who herself a crime survivor. She and two friends suffered at the hands of a violent serial rapist and police officer Henry Hubbard, Jr. on San Diego's Torrey Pines State Beach in 1991. I don't want to go on about her, her surviving her attack or even the ID program, which airs Thursdays at 9 pm and re-airs throughout the week and is available On Demand. Well, actually, I do want to speak about one episode from the current season (the 3rd season), but not the show as much as how the law failed to truly punish the perpetrator of this crime. The show titled "Escaping The Arroyo" interviews the one surviving victim and tells the horrific story about two whi...

My First Blog

Unless I'm already mentally or emotionally stirred up I find it difficult to start anything.  Be it a rant, a conversation or a writing.  I'm sure if I don't get bored or disillusioned I will have something interesting or controversial to say.  I might even drop an occasional F bomb.   As this is my first outing, I will insert many random thoughts that clearly will lack continuity or proper linkage.  I will sound like a mental patient or someone suffering from Alzheimer's.  For instance, tomorrow is my birthday.  I turn 55.  Who cares, right?  Why are we so self-absorbed with ourselves?  I know from my POV I want to rule the world, be famous and shag any girl I desire.  I also know, as I'm sure you do too, that that's just not going to happen...ever.  But without these little dreams/daydreams I'd find it more difficult to crawl out of bed most mornings.   Random thought #2:  How do people quote lines by fa...

30 Day Writing Challenge: Day 18 - "30 Possibly Known Facts About Me"

Day 18 - "30 Possibly Known Facts About Me" When I saw this assignment I thought hooray I get to talk about ME.  But then I realized after reading my sister's blog that I had to tell the truth.  No matter.  It's still all fun. The Facts...Nothing But The Facts I was born on Valentine's Day during one of the worst blizzards of the first half of the 20th Century in New Jersey. My favorite color is red, sometimes orange, but mostly red. I'm a smidgen under 6 feet, but say I'm 6 feet tall anyway. I'm the oldest of 5 children. I'm a Type 2 diabetic.  (Who isn't?) I love baseball and football.  I don't care much for other sports. I used to play golf...poorly. I was in a bowling league for several years in the 1990s.  My average as of my last game was 188.  My highest score was 275. I was a PIAA football and wrestling official for 8 years. I have been playing guitar for 41 years.  I also can play bass and som...
