The Snarly Old Man - Between a Rock and a Hard Place!

About Me


Hey! You up there reading my blog titles... If you go read one, leave me a comment. I'm an attention whore! I want to hear what you have to say, good or bad. If you think I suck - then tell me that. I'll proabably just tell you to blow it out your ass - but hey, that's the reason they call me The Snarly Old Man.
You may continue now on your journey to the Snarly Side
There are so many reasons for why I'm snarly that it's hard to list them all here. Just read my blogs, that will explain a lot.If you get a friend request from me and want to know why - hell, I don't know! I surfed through profiles, found yours, thought it was interesting and clicked "ADD". What else is there to know?I recently took a week long break from blogging. I do that every now and then. Read my blogs, don't read them. I don't care. But don't get hooked on them, 'cause they could stop or come out sporadically. Just depends on how I feel when I get up and get that first cup of coffee in me in the morning.You won't find me on here after 5:00 PM Eastern Time or on the weekends. I spend time with the woman with whom I have a significan't relationship (girlfriend/boyfriend at my age? give me a break!)Anything you read on my profile and in my blogs is either my snarly old opinion, or a flat out lie. Take it for what it's worth.Aight - ready? Let's go.

My Interests


I'd like to meet:

Nobody. For the most part I can't stand people. It's all I can do to drag myself into Walmart a couple of times a week to pick up groceries and beer. Speaking of beer at Walmart, why do they put it all thew way in the very back corner of the store??? I have yet to go in there and buy just a case of beer. I always come out with some Slim Jims or Rachel Ray crackers or something.....Hmmm, just answered my own question. Never mind.

Music:

The song that's playing right now, if you don't have it turned off yet, is one of my all time favorites. I've got lots of other favorites too. But for some reason MySpazz is all worried about copywrite laws and crap like that so I can't share them with you. Give me a week and I'll see if I can come up with a list I can stick on here so I don't look like a moron.

Movies:

I'll usually give a movie about 10 minutes. If it's still stupid after that I won't waste my time on it. Last movie I saw that was worth the time I spent to watch it was Top Gun. But, I always skip through the part where the plane crashes and Goose buys the farm.

Television:

Yes - I have a television. Did you notice that the price on televisions are going down? I bought one the other day for $99 at the WalMart. The reason? HD. High Definition. Congress passed a law on February 1, 2006, setting a final deadline for the DTV transition of February 17, 2009. Most television stations will continue broadcasting both analog and digital programming until February 17, 2009, when all analog broadcasting will stop. Keep that in mind when you pick up that 37" Flat Screen TV for a price too good to be true.

Books:

REPLAY - Ken Grimwood, anything by Robert Heinlen.

Heroes:

Me. Oh, and Superman.
