Secretdesires

I have been away for several days trying to catch up on my life. I am remodeling my basement and my kids had their last week of school.

I know why I am here. I thought I would try out a blog before I threw money into one. I wanted to see if I have the time and the information to make it worthwhile. Myspace is a weird place and I'm not sure I like it.

I have a co-worker whose daughter has been working as our office receptionist, her name is Toni. Toni basically answers the phone and helps with billing and any other task that needs to be done. Toni does not get paid a lot but she is able to study for school and surf the net when she is not busy.

I noticed that Toni was spending a lot of time on myspace. I asked her a little about it and that's how I got here. [By the way, Toni broke her ankle playing soccer and had surgery last night to try and repair the damage.]

Honestly my impressions of myspace are not good. This seems like a place where teens hide from who they are and make up personas that will garner more friends than Tom. The other tenants are adults who hide from who they are and make up personas of teens, or adults who are sexual deviants out for a quick fix. Then there are the local police who are out for their 15 minutes of fame on Dateline NBC. They troll for the sexual deviants acting like the teens who act like sexual deviants. I also don't like the bots who advertise for other web sites or businesses. [No, I don't want to pay money to take a survey to make money].

Secretdesires is a "person" on myspace from my "neighborhood". She is always online and requests Girls Only. She can't be a real person and if she is, she's hiding from something. I feel sorry for her.

Anyway, I will stick around blogging until my feet are wet or tired.

I found this sweet photo captioned Mordor today while I was surfing.

As I have said before I would love to take up photography. [The man who owned our home before us had a dark room in the basement. I have to admit this was one of the things that attracted me to the home.]
I found this image at http://zenith9.my-expressions.com

Over the weekend I saw this image of a boy that was born with three arms.
   
I don't want to disrespect this boy but imagine all the cool things you could do with three arms. I wouldn't want him to become a side-show act but there is potiental for fun there.

I also came across this cool image.


It simply says smoking effects your brain. I'm not taking a shot at the smokers out there. I know exactly how poeple get hooked on this stuff. But even smokers know they need to quit.

My son and I went for a walk this morning at the track at Ogden High. It is interesting to see the people who are out and about in your neighborhood in the mornings. It is also interesting to see those who exercise for their health and those who exercise for their body.
