Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

Please note: I am only on here for sh##s and giggles, I am NOT looking to meet anyone

I mean, if I went around saying, "I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me" they'd put me away!

I'm self-employed & live a somewhat laid-back lifestyle yet I am quite ambitious & a recovering 'work-a-holic'. I own a small business and while it's hard to explain what I do if you've ever seen the Antiques Roadshow that's a big clue...I'm also the hopeless/hopeful romantic & chivalrous type. Not necessarily old-fashioned in many ways but almost always the consummate gentleman. Without trying to write a novel or sound egotistical (which seems impossible with my task at hand) I will just list some adjectives I objectively feel apply to me, though I may be slightly biased:-) only occasionally stubborn and/or moody & potentially reserved...but I have some good attributes as well....I'm also sensitive but ocassionally oblivious. More often I am intelligent, witty but frequently with a friendly sarcastic edge, spontaneous, thoughtful, loyal, caring, generous, trustworthy, successful, and open/honest to a fault. I'm also outgoing but sometimes shy (no, they are not mutually exclusive). Still very young at heart & enjoy just being silly but definitely too old for game players or any dishonesty, I have enough grey hairs already. In my spare time I enjoy travel, one day road trips, weekend getaways, cooking, dining out , theatre-especially musicals, animals, children (nieces & nephews for now), quiet movies at home with popcorn and/or wine, anything with family, poker, & any cerebral board games such as scrabble or trivial pursuit. I enjoy most anything in my spare time if I am with the right person. Love quiet movie nights at home and usually prefer and quirky comedy (Monty Python, Life Is Beautiful, Adam Sandler, Bill Murray, and Steve Martin top my list) to a serious drama. The occasional 'chick-flick' is enjoyable as well, but I may cry. I also love writing poetry and have a strong affinity for the English language That is why I often am quite loquacious, & it might help explain the plethora of verbiage in my text..............
BTW I do NOT live in Mastic (though I live very close) this site does not like my real zipcode?..................

What a pain in the arse this site is. It said to expand my essay by 382 charchters to gain 1% more. WOW, then I could die happily. Oddly enough my essay was almost twice as long when it made me shorten it, saying it was TOO long.....I can't win!
Now it wants 121 MORE characters, well I could have probably fit some of the good stuff it made me delete, but this feels like enough extra charcters to earn the coveted 1% more.............
Wow, now it's only asking for a few more charchters to achieve 100%, do i get any kind of a prize now?? Ooops it still wants 49 more charchters so.....this should suffice I hope

"Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no
basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power
derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony."

I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting.
By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,--
--but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more.....

Dingo: She has been setting a light to our beacon, which, I've just remembered, is Grail shaped. It's not the first time we've had this problem.
Sir Galahad: It's not the real Grail?
Dingo: Oh, wicked, bad, naught evil Zoot! Oh, she is a bad person, and she must pay the penalty!
[Turns to camera]
Dingo: Do you think this scene should have been cut? We were so worried when the boys were writing it, but now we're glad! It's better than some of the previous scenes I think.
Left Head: Our was better visually.
Dennis: Ours was committed, it wasn't just a string of pussy jokes.
Bridgekeeper: Get on with it.
Tim: Yes! Get on with it!
Army: Get on with it!

God: Get on with it!

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

TRYING TO MAINTAIN 100% HERE. I had 100% but now it went down to 98% due to a rejection on a WTF. :-( Now it says I have to have a WTF with someone to get back to 100%. Oh this damn site giveth and now it taketh away...argghhhH!!!! Oh well, too much time on my hands..........

Enjoying it one day at a time!
Trying to find myself
Finally writing a book that had been in my head for a decade but I had never started writing it.
Running my biz but not like my former workaholic self
I'm now in training for the Olympic coffee drinking team
Prancing around my house singing, pretending that I actually have talent

I'm really good at Propose an edit

My work, playing with kids, being kind to people, drinking coffee, writing poetry, poker, scrabble, reading people (especially in biz, less in personal matters)
I also have a profound interest in horology (look it up and get your mind out of the gutter)

Doing my absolute best to keep my four ‘agreements’ (by Don Miguel Ruiz), or rules to live by asd revealed by ancient Toltec Wisdom

1) Be Impeccable With Your Word
2) Don’t Take Anything Personally
3) Don’t Make Assumptions
4) Always Do Your Best

With these four 'simple' agreements you too can transform your entire life and be immune to other people's emotional poison !!!

I'm also good at quoting tons of movies, especially Monry Python :)

Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! HELP! HELP! I'm being repressed!

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

My eyes or my lips usually, or so I am told.
So this thing said I could gain another 1% by adding like 800 charachters. So instead of being creative I'll just attach this poem I enjoy.

I LOVE my dog Rocky!!!!

Casey at the Bat
by Ernest Lawrence Thayer ©

Published: The Examiner (06-03-1888)

The Outlook wasn't brilliant for the Mudville nine that day:
The score stood four to two, with but one inning more to play.
And then when Cooney died at first, and Barrows did the same,
A sickly silence fell upon the patrons of the game.

A straggling few got up to go in deep despair. The rest
Clung to that hope which springs eternal in the human breast;
They thought, if only Casey could get but a whack at that -
We'd put up even money, now, with Casey at the bat.

But Flynn preceded Casey, as did also Jimmy Blake,
And the former was a lulu and the latter was a cake;
So upon that stricken multitude grim melancholy sat,
For there seemed but little chance of Casey's getting to the bat.

But Flynn let drive a single, to the wonderment of all,
And Blake, the much despis-ed, tore the cover off the ball;
And when the dust had lifted, and the men saw what had occurred,
There was Jimmy safe at second and Flynn a-hugging third.

Then from 5,000 throats and more there rose a lusty yell;
It rumbled through the valley, it rattled in the dell;
It knocked upon the mountain and recoiled upon the flat,
For Casey, mighty Casey, was advancing to the bat.

There was ease in Casey's manner as he stepped into his place;
There was pride in Casey's bearing and a smile on Casey's face.
And when, responding to the cheers, he lightly doffed his hat,
No stranger in the crowd could doubt 'twas Casey at the bat.

Ten thousand eyes were on him as he rubbed his hands with dirt;
Five thousand tongues applauded when he wiped them on his shirt.
Then while the writhing pitcher ground the ball into his hip,
Defiance gleamed in Casey's eye, a sneer curled Casey's lip.

And now the leather-covered sphere came hurtling through the air,
And Casey stood a-watching it in haughty grandeur there.
Close by the sturdy batsman the ball unheeded sped-
"That ain't my style," said Casey. "Strike one," the umpire said.

From the benches, black with people, there went up a muffled roar,
Like the beating of the storm-waves on a stern and distant shore.
"Kill him! Kill the umpire!" shouted someone on the stand;
And its likely they'd a-killed him had not Casey raised his hand.

With a smile of Christian charity great Casey's visage shone;
He stilled the rising tumult; he bade the game go on;
He signaled to the pitcher, and once more the spheroid flew;
But Casey still ignored it, and the umpire said, "Strike two."

"Fraud!" cried the maddened thousands, and echo answered fraud;
But one scornful look from Casey and the audience was awed.
They saw his face grow stern and cold, they saw his muscles strain,
And they knew that Casey wouldn't let that ball go by again.

The sneer is gone from Casey's lip, his teeth are clenched in hate;
He pounds with cruel violence his bat upon the plate.
And now the pitcher holds the ball, and now he lets it go,
And now the air is shattered by the force of Casey's blow.

Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Mudville - mighty Casey has struck out.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

trying to figure out what to do for fun. Any ideas?

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is RIGHT OUT!! Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.

AMEN

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

My favorite candy bar is probably Kit Kat or maybe Milky Way.
I often pull my shirt over my lips when I am on the computer.
I once ate a spider that was crawling on a dice table in Atlantic City just to shock everyone......
