You're stronger than you think.
Strength.
It’s a strange thing. People talk about it all the time. They tell you to be strong, that together we are strong, that if you are strong, you can get through anything.
What they don’t tell you, is that when you’re alone, it’s hard to be strong.
Being a human being is an amazing thing. We get to experience so many wonderful things that other creatures...

Bright lights
I wonder how it is to fly
Like someone who is quite so high
Who marches to his drugged out beat
And trips upon his own two feet
His conscience may have let him live
But how much time will people give
For the social invalid
His vapid stare is set in place
His ego plastered on his face
His life forgotten,his pride disgraced

Where the hell have I been?
You might know me from years ago because you watched me on a variety show, or you may just have heard me on the radio recently, or heck, you may just have stumbled across me one day while you were bored and a picture of me in my underwear sparked your interest. Whichever of those things it might be, now you have ended up here with me. Wonder what I’m doing? You’re probably not alone.

Here goes nothing
Well hello friend.
First off, let me start by saying I never thought I would ever blog in my entire life. Why? Well, as I sit here listening to Portishead’s ‘Glory Box’, trying to memorize the lyrics, my mind is going about a million miles a minute. I have already thought about 100 things I could write about and cant seem to put one coherent sentence together about any of it. So...
