I'm Back!

Welcome back everyone, sorry for the few week layoff.  I hope everyone enjoyed not having to read this blog during the break, and for the one or two that actually missed reading the blog don't worry I am back and have tons of topics to write about.
I was away on a cruise about 2 weeks ago with some friends, Carnival Freedom.  It was an 8 night cruise and stopped at Cozumel, Costa Rica and Panama.  The cruise was great and the weather was great.  It seemed to be spring break for high schools as there was tons of high school people on the cruise and I do not remember girls being so "developed" in high school.  Some of these girls were ridiculous, don't worry I followed all laws.  Some of them are incredibly dumb, as I was walking with two of the kids that we went with and a high school girl asked them if they could ask his dad to by her some beer, referring to me.  Now the kids I was walking with at the time were 18, everyone may know I am an old man, but I don't look 40.  This girl was fucking retarted, but moving on.
Costa Rica was my favorite stop, we took a boat ride thru the rainforest which was pretty sweet seeing monkeys, lizards, all that shit.  Then we zip lined thru the rainforest which was awesome.  I recommend doing that if you ever get a chance.  Cozumel, the day was spent drinking at the beach.  The beach and water was beautiful and the beer was great.  Panama was boring as hell.  Now I respect the whole Panama Canal, combining to oceans, making trade and travel easier.  However, watching the process take place is like watching paint dry.  The process is cool watching the different water levels and boat rising, but it takes too long and is too boring.  Glad I saw it, never wanna see it again, unless I am going thru it.
The cruise was overall a great time, very relaxing and anytime you aren't in work for a whole week you cant complain at all.

One rant before I go.  If you have been reading this blog for a while now you know my feelings towards Facebook.  I check my Facebook, and like anyone I have found myself on it for way too long at times.  What I do not like is people who feel it necessary to tell us all what you are doing constantly.  "Right now John Doe is taking a crap, then I might shower" or "I hung out with this girl last night and now I have the clap"  I now have something else to add to the things  I hate about Facebook.  People have started living their lives thru Facebook, I mean they meet people they start talking to people next thing you know they are going out.  The whole relationship takes place on Facebook and usually ends on Facebook.  How pathetic are these people who can not even break up with someone in person, or at least over the phone.  They just write on their status single, or no longer in a relationship.  The poor other person finds out that way, are you kidding me?  It is starting to create a generation of people who no longer communicate like humans, rather as computers who once in a while see each other.

Before I go a few things:

New movie quote:"First day on the job, you know what I learned? How to spot a murderer. Let's say you arrest three guys for the same killing. You put them all in jail overnight. The next morning, whoever's sleeping is your man. You see, if you're guilty, you know you're caught, you get some rest, you let your guard down."  

Question of the Day:  What was the best vacation you have ever been on?  Where was your favorite place you have been?

  1. Paw, your too old to recognize how developed girls in high school are. Perv

    QOTD: Germany for both questions. Although it wasn't your normal relax at a resort vacation, exploring the different way of life was awesome. I guess the fact that I have family there made my visit better, but it was just an awesome place to be in terms of people and places to go.

  2. I'm going to share a very sensitive moment with all of you..

    Lately nothing has really been making sense to me. I've repeatedly asked myself "Why?" and "What's the point?". There has just been some void in my life lately that I haven't been able to fill. Every day just seems like a repeat of the previous, but in a shittier form. I guess you don't know how much you love something until it's gone.

    So there I am, sitting in the driver's seat of my car while parked in the garage, pondering the meaning of life and asking myself if it's even worth it anymore. I have my laptop sitting in the passenger seat with http://kwintersworld.blogspot.com/ loaded in the web browser. Hope is lost once again as I only see "Time for Lost" as the latest update. At this point I decide it's best to cut my losses and say goodbye to this cruel world. I connect the 3" hose in my garage to the muffler of my car and run it to the driver's window while closing the garage door. I then sit comfortably in the driver's seat, and I finally feel like I'm right where I belong. It is 5:17PM on May 3rd, a date and time I will never forget. As I place the key in the ignition and start the engine, I begin thinking about what my next life will be like. Will I be president? Will I have my own famous blog on the internet? Will I be another face in the crowd? Who knows. As I toss my cell phone in the passenger seat I notice it lands on my laptop keyboard, trigger my web browser to hit Refresh. What's this?? A BLOG UPDATE? SAY IT ISN'T SO! LIFE HAS MEANING ONCE AGAIN. I immediately throw my car in reverse and plow through the closed garage door. I exit my vehicle and lay on my back on my front lawn, staring at the beautiful sky, laughing from pure joy, feeling what I could only describe as pure euphoria.

    I then sifted through the wreckage to find my laptop so I can continue this feeling of extacy. I then came to realize that you talked about your crappy trip, your questionable attraction towards underaged girls, and made the same complaints about facebook that millions of people have been already for the last 6 months. After I fix my garage door I'm going to do this all over. Thanks a lot.

  3. great. i'm happy you wrote a new blog after a few weeks. i was starting to think you've come to your senses and stopped typing useless jabber with your stupid sausage fingers. maybe 1 out of the 8 people who read your blog appreciated it..for maybe .00000005 of a second. i look forward to reading [laughing at] more of your generic rants, futile opinions and irrelevant questions of the day. maybe another outline of lost. awesome. giddy up.

  4. I now present to you, a dramatic re-enaction between the author of this blog and one of the'well-developed' pre-teen girls he saw.

    Matt: Hey cutie, Giddy UP!! (taking off shirt to flex 13 inch pythons)
    Girl: ...(dry heave) Hey, please put your shirt back on.
    Matt: (Re-dressing) So. Do you recognize me? I'm the guy who writes "The Blog About Nothing."
    Girl: Oh, are you the guy that still lives at home in their mid twenties and updates a pointless blog.
    Matt: Its not pointless! I have 14 followers, Its cool! (stomping right foot)
    Girl: So I get that its a Seinfeld reference, naming your blog such. But don't you only write about basketball, LOST and how your mom makes you clean up your room before the cleaning lady arrives?
    Matt: YEAH! My mom is such a DRAAAAAG. A blog TOTALLY devoted to nothing!
    Girl: To the contrary, I think your blog is solely devoted to those three topics and ONLY those three topics. So. You're 25, so when are you planning on moving out?
    Matt: When my mom stops paying for vacations for me to go on with my friends!
    Girl: Your mom paid for you to come on this vacation?
    Matt: YEAH! She even packed me some Capris Sun for the ride! ILOVECAPRISSUN!! Giddy UP!!! (begins sipping straw hungrily as most of the red juice stains his white tank top)
    Girl: Ew. So can you buy us alcohol?
    Matt: Will you sleep with me? (with red mouth and stained shirt)
    Girl: I'm 14.
    Matt: Will you sleep with me?
    Girl: Are you a registered sex offender?
    Matt: My parents say I'm a CATCH!

    (Curtains close)

    *Editor's Note: Character likeness is not a coincidence. The character "Matt" is a mirror image of the author of this horrible blog.

    Giddy UP!!!

  5. Before I answer your ridiculously broad and unoriginal question I must say, I was very worried that you haven’t written for some time. In fact, the last time I was that worried was a Tuesday about a year ago when I looked down and realized that my shoelaces were a little uneven.
    So to answer your mundane question, my favorite vacation was a trip to Thailand. It was a beautiful land full of poverty and despair. There were underage prostitutes (which judging by your take on high school girls on your cruise, you would love), homeless, and starvation. It broke my heart, but I didn’t know what real pain was till I noticed you posted another blog. Thank you once again for reminding me that life only gets worse.
