I have decided that I'm going to really start keeping up with this blog, especially since my last blog was the first one since April and only the second altogether.
I'm sitting in my chair at work keeping the small municipal cities of this great metropolitan safe (read that with a sarcastic tone of voice in your head) and just realized I am, for some strange reason, enamored with the phrase "feeling frisky." Myself and a co-worker were discussing our options for food which, at this time of night, makes for a short winded conversation. I started naming our options that were close, Taco Bell, McDonalds, and of course the "Porcelain Palace." Then I said, and I quote, "And there's Steak and Shake and Denny's across the bridge, if you're feeling frisky."
Sitting here bored, listening to a quiet radio, with a growling stomach, I started thinking about what I just said. I began to ponder the phrase "feeling frisky" as a philosopher would ponder the meaning of life. So, in my infinite boredom, I began to research my newly dubbed favorite saying with the help of the all knowing Google. As for the phrase itself, I didn't find much, but I did find that it was used alot. By the way have you ever ran your own name through Google??
urbanydictionary.com didn't have a definition for "feeling frisky" but it did give a definition for the word frisky. According to the website frisky means possesing a sexual feeling and gives a synonym of horny. It also uses it in a sentence. "He was feeling frisky, so he touched her." "Feeling frisky" itself was found in the definition for OTP. For those of you who don't know OTP stands for on "on the prowl." Here is urbandictionary.com's definition: OTP means On The Prowl!!! as in "feeling frisky" like a cat who is out on the hunt to get her prey! It can be used in a sexy way (like "she is looking to get some tonight"), or in a joking way about being overly desperate about being on the hunt for anyone. I will also post for you the usage of OTP in a sentence which they gave as I quite enjoyed it and would like to bring a little light into your life as well. "When she saw her friend(who was wearing a short, tight red dress and high heels, looking very sexy), she exclaimed, "Oooh! I see you are OTP tonight!" Yep, someone was actually serious when they wrote that!
The next page that I found I will just post the link to because you just have to see it for yourself.

There was also a website called friskyradio.com As I am at a computer that has no sound I was unable to listen to the music that was on there.
Wikipedia gave me an empty search. Damn you Wikipedia!!!
As I am now bored with this research, I believe it is time to stop and actually go get food. This, folks, is what happens when you combine boredom, an empty stomach, and a crossword puzzle that your stuck on. Until next time...

Hard Times = Dumb People
I recently read an article on CNN.com that made me see red (I say recently like it was yesterday, actually it was a couple of months ago). The topic of the article was white supremacy groups, i.e. Neo-Nazis and the ever retarded KKK, and how in these hard economic times they are beginning to see a rise in their numbers. I understand that our nation has fallen on hard times and everyone is seeking an answer. Hatred, my friends, is NEVER the answer.
These groups thrive off of hate filled lies and propaganda that belittle other races, creeds, religions, and cultures. In short they are paranoid, anger filled morons who blame other people for their problems instead of pointing a finger at themselves. Surely it was a someone else's fault that you lost your house that you couldn't afford but went ahead and bought anyways, along with the three cars you also couldn't afford, and then lost them all. No, it wasn't your fault you lived beyond your means, not at all.
My personal favorite would be the Neo-Nazis. These unevolved apes still like to follow a man whom I believe to be evil incarnate, Adolf Hitler. I, for one, love my country and the rights that I have living in it, including freedom of speech. But something gets under my skin whenever I see these assholes. Men like my grandfather did not storm the beaches of Normandy, watch their friends and fellow soldiers get mowed down in the hedgerows, and barely survive the freezing winter in knee deep snow in the forests of Bastogne so that you can condone the very thing they were fighting against. Lets not forget that Hitler and the Nazis almost eradicated an entire race of people. To wave that flag and march around spouting hate phrases in German is a slap in the face to every single man and woman that served in Europe in WWII. You should all take your happy asses back to the Fatherland and preach your crap there and stop disrespecting the brave people that risked and, in alot of cases, gave their lives protecting our freedoms from Nazi Germany.
I'm sure that another reason we are seeing a rise in these groups is that we now have a president who is not white. People, I am growing weary of race still being a major factor in our culture. If someone is right for the job, no matter what it is, then the job should be theirs without race or gender playing a major role. Barack Obama was the right man for the job and if Hillary had gotten the nomination over him, she would've had my vote too. For those of you reading this that want to say I'm just a liberalist Democrat, I'm a registered Republican. Although, with the way the Republican party acts anymore, that will soon change.
There are those, including people that I am very close to, that belive Obama is nothing short of the anti-Christ. In my opinion these ideas stem from an older generation and a way of living that is scared of change. Our world and our culture is evolving and those that are not growing with it are going to be left behind. They will end up sitting a dark room in their house, scared to go outside because the world they knew and loved is long gone. Little do they know the world that is out there may be better than they could ever imagine. A world that preaches love, understanding, and acceptance for your fellow human being. Thats right, we are all of the same species no matter what some think and say.
I, for one, usually do not think well of politicians. I think most of them are two-faced liars and backstabbers. They act like they are for the people when, in reality, they have their own agendas that only include themselves and their rich buddies. I do believe, though, that we finally have someone in office who cares about the fate of this nation. Not only is the man overly intelligent, but he seems like your everyday normal guy that you might strike up a conversation with standing in line at the grocery store. I am proud to say that Barack Obama is President of the United States of America and leader of the free world. Change is here folks, it's time to get with the program.
In conclusion, yes, we are in some very tough times, but we have gotten through tougher times before and we will get through these. To turn to hate is nothing short of ingorance. Narrowmindedness can be a very,very scary thing. In the words of a wise short little green man, "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to the dark side."
