Thought of the Day:Lottery


Have you ever thought about what you would do with the millions of dollars if you won the lottery?

I was sitting at my desk today teaching my future boss and started to think what I would do with millions of dollars. The amazing thing that came about was the fact that most of the items that I thought of  seemed to focus on buying things or doing things for other people. I can only imagine the look on peoples' faces when I escorted them in to a dealership and said pick out any vehicle that you want, or making the phone call to your parents telling them about their summer home in Mexico you bought for them. (never mind that: the drug cartels and swine flu are on the prawl)

But seriously, what do people do with this money that they win. 

Here is my list of the more fun ideas that I could come up with:

1) Buy a subdivision so all of your friends can live there for free . There is a mandatory go-cart race every Sunday afternoon like Nascar. This takes place in a perfect oval track in the center of the homes where you can only use your family as a pit crew.

2) I would buy the cast of 24 so I could make them work around the clock so we could watch the show non-stop.  

3) Three words: Ultimate Potato Gun


Don't be Shy! Send the List!

The Introduction of the Virgin Blogger

"Life comes at you fast" 

As I sit here in my living room watching the little one "Madelynn" playing on the floor with a toy at the age of two months I sometimes get jealous of what is going in that little brain of hers. How simplistic life is for her. No mortgage, career, and the numerous little payments in life that drives one nuts, such as an oil change. But as i sit back and think about all of the things that happen in life,hectic or not, you start to realize how great life is. The mortgage payment puts a roof over the head of the people that mean the most to me. My wife Natalie gets to raise her little daughter here, my dog Cooper gets to lay on the vents and get cool and I.....well I get to sit back and live the story. 

Because of the events that have happened in my life, I have learned to become a positive person. Even the guy that helped me get the idea for this blogging escapade has helped with this. I used to be as pessimistic as a person can get. But with my family and the friends that I have how can one be negative about anything. 

So as a summary for my first blogging experience I will leave you with this.
- There is a method to all of the madness that happens in our daily life. The problem for me lies in the fact that I don't understand that method until later on. I guess life is made up of 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you respond to it.

Enjoy the Blog...I look forward to the ride.
