WOuld you mind reading a song I wrote for my girlfriend?

September 10th, 2011 5 comments

It’s my girlfriend and mine’s eight-month anniversary in a week and I wanted to write her a song and I hope she likes it. if she doesn’t, I’ll be pretty pissed to be honest. We don’t always get a long and sometimes i get really mad and I spit on her and stuff but besides all that, we have a nice relationship going. She’s pretty hot and so hopefully if i write her this song, I can finally tap that ho fo sho because i am tired of waiting for some intercourse-action. SO, please leave me some feedback for my song, okay? It would mean a whole lot to me.

"Bianca’s Beautiful Hairy Hair of Brown"
Here’s a song I wrote for you,
After you read it,
You shall lets have intercourse,
My dearest Bianca,
I’ve admired you from up close and I’ve admired you from afar,
Every time you shower,
Or open up a jar,
Instead of buying you a ring,
Or a brand new fancy car,
I’ve written you a little song,
That you had better enjoy because it took a lot of effort,

You have very nice hair,
It is wonderful and brown,
I like the white flakes that fall out,
And land upon the ground,

Mother says it’s dandruff,
I say it’s a gift from above,
In either case,
When I see your face,
All I can feel is love,

I’ve eaten little strands,
Of that beautiful brown hair,
It’s brown like Grandma’s feces,
It’s so nice of you to share,

When I’m sitting in my bedroom,
Baking belts along the way,
I think of you,
Oh yes I do,
And I’d pay to hear you say,

"Come be my picnic-time lover,
For when the bark is ripe,
We go down to the hammocks,
And fly an orange kite,"

Where when to be a bandaid,
A delicious slice of cake,
I stayed up til 3:15 last night,
And now I cannot rake,

For why for which we be a blimp,
Does Debbie have to know?
I once made love outside in June,
But there was there was no snow,

The bus will take us to the beach,
We will suck each patron’s toe,
And if people demand we stop,
We will tell them collectively – no!

If you ask Captain McDougal,
If he’s ever told a lie,
He’ll remove his pants,
Begin to dance,
And a Russian man shall die,

Remember my words Bianca,
They will save your life you know,
Now that I’m done,
What say we, hun…
have intercourse, ya hoe?!
Shave me first, though

September 10th, 2011 1 comment

Find the tension in each of the two ropes supporting a hammock if one is at an angle of theta1= 19 above the horizontal and the other is at an angle of theta2= 37 above the horizontal. The person sleeping in the hammock (unconcerned about tensions and ropes) has a mass of 70 kg.
that doesnt work, itried using both equations

lawn mower repair; bent shaft.?

September 7th, 2011 3 comments

I have a toro recycler mdl. #20017 with a bent crank shaft. I have confirmed the shaft is indeed bent. I can not bring myself to just throw the mower away. It was bent by a relative who borrowed it. He states he hit the foot of a hammock stand and the mower cut off and he noticed oil had leaked from the bottom. He couldnt re-start it. I got it back and was able to re-start it like normal and noticed a heck of a vibration. I hoped the blade was bent, but it is definately the shaft thats bent. What can I do. A new comparable model is around 500 bucks. With this economy, thats out of the question, I have tools, wherewithall and some knowledge.

Did I Blow It With This Girl?

September 6th, 2011 2 comments

Hi, everyone. How’s it going?

I have a question regarding whether or not I blew it with a female. In my opinion I did, but a few friends have told me I’m being overly negative. So here’s the tale:

I’m in college, as is the female I’m interested in. We met in the spring in a class we both had together. Over the course of the semester we got to know each other and while I thought she was cute and certainly attractive, I didn’t think much of dating her. Well towards the end of the semester she came over to my dorm one night, after I had invited her over to meet my crazy asian roommate. After she met him we both sat at my table (in place of a desk) and worked on homework we had. We chilled and talked about a lot that night and I don’t remember what exactly I said but something I said got her to scoot right next to me. I know it’s no excuse, but I was working on a paper that was due at midnight that night so making a move didn’t really come to mind. So a little later she leaves for her dorm and we don’t talk again until July (aside from small, meaningless text messages).

In July, I’m nearing the end of my summer internship. This internship has provided me with free tickets to a major theme park near me. I have six free admissions, so I ask some of my friends if they’d like to come up. Most decline because they are busy. So in an attempt to use these admissions, rather than waste them, I invite this girl. She jumps on the chance and comes up to the theme parks for two days. The first day we hung out at the parks we had a great time riding the rides, catching up, etc. It seemed to me she was being kindy flirty with me, but I have a tendancy to read into things so I just brushed it off. For example, she grabbed my side when we were talking about working out over the summer and how much weight each of us had lost. Another example would be when we were riding the rollercoasters, she had told me she was afraid of them. I got her to go on them, after a little convincing, and when we got to the big drops she grabbed and held my hand, interlocking our fingers. Ya’ll know what I mean. And she would jump on my back occasionally for a ride. But I just brushed those off because I didn’t want to read into them.

Anyways, she went home that night, because she doesn’t live far from the parks, and came back the next day. We hit up the other theme parks we had missed the previous day and once again had a great time. Later that night we went back to the hotel that she parked her vehicle at. Rather than her leave, however, we decided to hit up the beach of the hotel. She had never been to this hotel so she was amazed at the beach and was exploring. I was dead tired because my summer job started at 4:30 AM and I was up to get myself ready by 3:20 AM. Usually I was in bed by this point, but because I was treating her to this trip I obviously stayed up a lot later. So as we’re walking along the beach we come across a hammock and I crash in it. She joins me but lays at the opposite end. We talk for a little as I fight to stay awake and soon to jokes that she’s going to use me as a pillow and comes over and lays half on me. We continue to talk as she lays on me, but she has her back turned to me. I begin to wonder if I should make a move but needless to say I never do. She texts me while we lay there together, kinda burrowed her face in my arm, and yea. We musta been in that hammock for a few hours. So eventually we get out of there and because its so late I have her stay at my apartment while I leave for work. I didn’t want her driving back so late. (It was like 2:30 AM)

She waits for me to come back from work before she leaves for her job back home. Now she coulda just taken off but she waited. I was surprised but whatever. So I came back to my room, we talked for an hour and then she left.

We didn’t see each other again till we moved back onto campus last week. The day I moved in she wanted to come over and see my new room. So I had her come over later that night and once again we talked, laughed, had a good time. Eventually I closed my door and moved up on the bed with her. But nothing really happened, probably because I didn’t make a move. So she goes back to her dorm.

I see her one more time the next day where I meet some of her friends and her roommate. I talk to them, talk to her, and then I headed out.

So I invited her to a party Friday night and she said she was busy. I invited her to another party on Saturday, as well as offering to take her to lunch. She said maybe but never got back to me about it. So I take it that means she isn’t interested.

I know the world will still turn tomorrow and life goes on, so I’ll be ok. But did my fear of making a move cost me something that coulda been or have I misread something? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I have been thinking of getting a hammock chair , is there one that will fit in an apartment or small patio?

Will the Amby bed hammock help CORRECT mild plagiocephaly?

September 4th, 2011 3 comments

All reviews of the Amby bed state that it helps to PREVENT flathead. My daughter is almost 4 months and has a flat spot that developed on the back of her right side of head (think it was due to tighter neck muscle on that side). Repositioning in her crib has not seemed to help much. Was wondering if the Amby can help to reshape her head to its previously round state.

Will my hamster use a Hammock?

September 2nd, 2011 5 comments

If I buy her a Hammock will she lay in it?

can someone continue this story for me plzz?

September 1st, 2011 3 comments

‘Arghh’, shouted Mrs Hammock. The classroom was going wild. The children were standing on tables, and others were drawing on the walls. Mrs Hammock was outrages with anger. She was about to burst, when suddenly the bell rang for home time. All students grabbed their bags and rushed out of the room. Mrs hammock slumped down in her chair while looking around her classroom full of drawings of places and figures that don’t even make sense. Models of dolls and atoms hanging down from the ceiling like chandelers. Staring at that fact the she must deal with this everyday, At the same time thinking of what went through her mind of becoming a kindergarden teacher
i need good ideas plzz

Most colorful/interesting hotel experience?

August 29th, 2011 1 comment

What was the most colorful, unusual, or otherwise interesting hotel you’ve stayed at?

For myself, I have 2 candidates: I once stayed in a Mexican hotel that was in a run-down 250-year old Spanish mansion with marble staircases, full of old oil paintings and crumbling antique furniture. It cost .50 a night, the sheets had holes in them and the mattress appeared to be 60 years old. The owner was an ancient, good natured Spanish-looking gentlemen.
The other was a hippie-run place built on a cliff overlooking a beach, the walls were painted with crazy hippie drawings and you slept in open-air hammocks.

Bush was on vacation only 3 weeks out of his entire 8 years. Did the quake wake Obama from his hammock?

Did the earthquake wake Obama from his hammock on Martha’s Vineyard?

Or did it knock his golf ball off course on the putting green?

Obama has been in the White House a total of 18 days since he took office. Everywhere else, has been golfing, jet skiing, at Martha’s Vineyard, Camp David, Hawaii, Tahiti, Cancun, Monaco, the Bahamas, etc.

Where can I move that fits my criteria?

August 26th, 2011 2 comments

I already know that this will get some negative responses, but here goes. I am currently living in Alaska… and hate it, with a passion. I was born and raised in Southern Oregon, and when jobs became more scarce and the small town I lived in became more depressed, I came to Alaska with my Fiance who was already working up here and thought we should give it a try. While I agree the economy is better here, and jobs are not as scarce, the cost of living is still ridiculous and the weather is awful. The cold and snow and rainy summers are one thing, but the lack of sun light is something that I can no longer tolerate. I agree that its lovely here, but just not what we wanted in a place to settle down and buy a house and what not.
What I am looking for is a place with weather slightliy similar to Southern Oregon, and nothing like Alaska. A place where there are distinctive seasons, Fall colors, lots of summer sun and warmth, a spring where beautiful things actually grow and I can garden more months of the year and be outside a great deal more due to nice weather. I would like this place to be a relatively small town or city with a rural area where we could buy a house that is not surrounded by other houses 10 feet away from it, you know get a bit of property and a bit of privacy. Also would like to be within driving distance to a bigger town or city, in case we needed anything or want a night out on the town. Needs to be within driving distance of the ocean as well, we love to go to the beach during the summer and want to be near one that we could actually walk on and enjoy.
The place also needs to have access to enough forest or woods somewhat close by so that my man can still enjoy his hunting, fishing, camping, ect. A place where I can channel my inner Southern Belle and drink tea on the sun porch during the summer and have a huge flower garden, and hammock for lazy reading days. A place with good swimming and boating access near by, lakes or river is fine. And finally, a place that is safe and would be suitable to raise children, should we decide to have them down the road. Some place beautiful.
Maybe you live someplace like this, or have been to this place, or maybe it sounds like someplace you have heard of? Any ideas? I would like to look into moving later this year or early next.

Thanks for any ideas and suggestions! :)

Because cotton can fray, is it bad to make a hammock of out it for my rats? I would probably fold and sew the edges..

How should i end this short story?

August 22nd, 2011 1 comment

I was lying in the hammock enjoying the sun on my face when i heard the front gate open. I looked up and saw a man standing there crazily staring at me, his face looked as if it were. My breathing got hard. I tried to twist out of the hammock but my foot was stuck. Moving hard my foot was finally free. Screaming I started to sprint. It seamed like an eternity before I finally stopped running and looked behind me. He wasn’t there. I was terrified to go back to my house so I went to my friend’s house, which was only about a mile away. As I was getting closer to my friends house my thoughts drifted back to the man who was in my back yard. Who was he? What was he doing at my house? All these thought scrambled through my mind. Not being able to think strait, I started to jog towards my friend’s house. I decided to go inside and tell them about what happened and then call my parents and tell them where I am… My parents! What would happen if the crazy man got to them? Now out of breath I ran into the house without knocking. “Hello?!” I said as I ran around the house searching for anyone. No one was on the first floor. I ran upstairs and of course, no one was there. Wow. I thought to myself. What luck? The first time I have ever come to their house and there not here?
I looked around one more time. This time I saw a shadow move in the living room. “Hello?” I screamed now more scared then before. “Katie? Mrs. Smith?” Why weren’t they answering?

i kno i am a terrible writer =P but can you just give me some critisisim and ideas??
thank you!!
here is more to the story i just added:

I turned my head to face forward and stood, terrified with fear. There he was. Not more then two feet ahead of me. My brain screamed for me to run but my legs felt like boulders, never to leave their position. I began to cry for it was the only thing i could do. He inched closer to me, his head twitched. He came closer and closer and began calling my name. I stood wide-eyed with one thought in my head. I’m going to die.

Where to move my family?
