Please leave comments and criticism...we're open to what you have to say.  Also, please leave us ideas for topics and segments.

Marriage is hard

I'm just kidding.  It's actually quite simple...just nod and agree with everything she says.  I really just put that as my title in hopes that some of my family members would click and comment on how much of a disappointment I've been over the past 28 years.  "You're always making fun of us" and "You had so much potential" and  "Why are you always touching yourself inappropriately in public"  Uggghhh, just leave me alone...everybody is doing it.

Random thought of the day:
Duvet Covers.  This has got to be the most ridiculous thing ever invented.  Who the hell needs to put a cover on a cover.  It's extremely unnecessary and I'm very upset at the cost of having to put my cover inside of a t-shirt and button it up like I'm putting clothes on the thing that keeps me warm when I sleep.  FIX IT!

Podcast segments and topics:
We're hoping to get this on the air in the next couple of weeks, but were still trying to figure out what direction we want to take things...mainly the topics we want to discuss. Please, if you have any suggestions or ideas on things you'd like to hear us discuss, TELL ME!  I'm open to all ideas...unless they're dumb...in which case I will ignore you.

New Music:
I've been searching for the past few months for some good new music to stray my ears from the four Felice Brothers albums I've been listening to on repeat.  They can do no wrong, so don't even...

Feel free to check out some of this stuff and recommend others...again, no dumb suggestions will be accepted and will be punished with severity.  These links go to songs I've had stuck in my head for the past few days.

Deer Tick
Rufus Wainwright and this cover of a Leonard Cohen song - Chelsea Hotel
Conor Oberst (nothing new here but this song is amazing)

I picked up Ryan Adam's album "29" in hopes of hearing what Ryan Adams had to say about 29 since I'm approaching that number myself.  I was extremely disappointed, but I should have expected this since it was the third album he put out in the same year.  The other two, "Cold Roses" and "Jacksonville City Nights" were top notch.

Oh, and then there is this. Pass it on.

This is harder than I thought

Before I go into this post, I just wanted to let you all know a couple things that are on the horizon.  I'm hoping and praying for a NC State Wolfpack win this weekend because I want to do my next post on the experience I had at the 2002 Gator Bowl and how I hope we can pull together a special season like that again this year.  Also, on October 17th I'll be filming a commercial for the Doritos "Crash the Super Bowl" contest.  I'm hoping I can come up with something interesting from the experience so I can also post about that.  Last but not least....I'm going to be starting a podcast to go along with this blog.  It will be called "Hunks in Real Life" and have nothing to do with hunks in real life.  It will be me and a few of my friends making idiots out of ourselves in audio form.  We'll probably be covering the most irrelevant and random topics we can think of and I hope to have our first one done by next week, so more information on that will be forthcoming.

Sooooo, initially I thought I would have some really brilliant things to talk about on a daily basis or at least every other day, but come to find out, this is harder than I thought.

Then it hit me, I'll write an entire blog post about how people are always telling me that I look like Ryan Gosling and I'll call it F*ck you Ryan Gosling.  This was my one and only brilliant idea until I realized how pretentious it was.  Who the hell wants to hear some wanna-be actor/musician complain about being compared to a Hollywood A-lister, who's most notable film "The Notebook" makes women's clothes come off faster than a man who knows how to pay the bills on time (Thanks Troy).  There are just so many other important issues I could be covering....Darfur, college students who think it's a good idea to bring AK-47's to campus,  2012.  I mean I don't even see the resemblance.

If we were going to make a fair comparison, I'd think something more like Giovanni Ribisi would be a closer fit (especially in The Other Sister). 

Basically, when someone says "You look like Ryan Gosling" or "You remind me of Ryan Gosling" or "Hey, doesn't he kind of look like that guy from The Notebook", what I hear is "Hey, there is this guy in Hollywood who looks just like you except he's Oscar nominated, making millions of dollars doing what you want to be doing and generally just a lot cooler than you".  I  mean the S.O.B  even has an album out now Dead Man's Bones.

Come on Ryan, can't I have something to my own?  I mean maybe Ryan Gosling looks like Jeramy Blackford...did you ever think of that?  How about you get your management team in touch with my people about doing a film about twin brothers who were separated at birth, but one of them ended up in Hollywood making millions and the other was stuck blogging about it to his friends and family.  

Guess what I just did...what a pretentious ass...

**Side note: Thank you spell check for not recognizing my name and thinking that both my first and last names were misspelled.  Way to just add fuel to the fire...

I have no idea what I'm doing so don't judge me or God will look down on you.

Ladies and Gentlemen.  I address you as ladies and gentlemen because I assume that both women and men will at some point read this page.  Actually, now that I think about it, I could be totally wrong in assuming that anyone will ever visit this site except for myself and the occasional friend who feels bad that no one is reading my blog.  Ok, so maybe me, the occasional friend, and then the occasional Internet stalker who comes across a blog titled "Handsome Devil" and realizes there are no pictures of male genitalia anywhere on this page...yet. But I digress. 

This first blog post is just to inform you about what my blog will cover and how terrible the grammar will be throughout my posts.  So, please don't tell me how bad my grammar or writing skills are....I already know.  I'm not an English major nor did I pay attention enough in English class to put together a well groomed paragraph without including the occasional ... or misplaced comma, but I did graduate from a 4 year University.  I write songs on napkins, receipts, old notebooks and past due bills.  None of these things judge how well my incoherent thoughts are put together and I like that. 

For those of you who made it past the first two paragraphs and are still interested in knowing what this blog will cover, thank you and welcome.  I plan to talk about all things sports, comedy, music, viral video and pop culture related.  Basically, I'm going to blog about anything that strikes my fancy and it will more than likely be related to the forementioned subjects and at times you might find it inappropriate and tasteless.

In closing, I hope you have a sense of humor and I hope you stick around.  This will either be a great success or an absolute train wreck (I'd bet the house on this), either way it'll be a fun ride.

Until next time (click the link in the 3rd paragraph...you'll be happy you did)
p.s. I had 8 misspellings before spell check
