We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us

About Me

I love my girlfriend!!=) I hate Monopoly. I hate it because this is how every game of Monopoly always ends.... Fuck this game! It's 4 in the morning gramma, you win! I'm sitting on Baltic with crap! I'm paying luxury tax out the ass! And I hate when you're the banker. Where did you get the pink $50's you cheating whore? Don't fucking touch me grampa! ... I don't know if I could kill someone with a frozen turkey because that is a lot of evidence to eat .... unless I found a whole room of people who also wanted that person dead ... ... I was told to move because I was blocking the fire exit ... as if I wouldn't run if there was a fire ... anything flammable and has legs can't ever block a fire exit ... ... I want to put a map on a wall and put a pin in all the places I traveled to ... first I have to travel to the top two corners of the map so it stays on the wall ... ... I don't like protesting, but I don't know how to show it ... In high school I was smart, but I didn't have any friends. In college, I quit being smart and started having friends... ... here is a vision test for you, is this a turd or the remote control ... My name is Pete Lawson and poker is my life. I love having the comfort of being able to work when i want, where i want, and how often i want. It's the greatest job in the world, and I'll be doing it for the rest of my life. I love the challenges that come along with the game, as well as every aspect that makes it the greatest activity for anyone to play. I got the nickname Pac-Man because i've always been known as a little guy with a big mouth. I'm never afraid to say what i think regardless of the consequences. I won't hold back what i feel, because life is too short to live it without doing and saying what you want to. I will do anything for a friend, since they are the most important things in my life. I would rather sit at home laid back with one person that i consider a good friend, instead of going out with 20 people that i hardly know. I love life, and i'm very grateful for what I've accomplished and am looking forward to being even more productive. Life's too short to focus on the negatives. I'm not afraid to admit when i don't know something. I am very strong willed, and when i believe someting I stand for it. I love to look at things through my point of view, and through others points of view, but i still realize i may not always understand the whole picture. I strive to make the most out of my life, since it seems like it's flying by. I'm outgoing, personable, love to just enjoy myself and whoever is with me, very spontaneous, always ready to try something new...Get Your Own Voice Player Manage

My Interests

poker, snowboarding, tennis, soccer, baseball....too many to list, i love changing it up, doing different things all the time to keep life exciting... Honesty may be the best policy, but it's important to remember that apparently, by elimination, dishonesty is the second-best policy. First pics of my new home, more to come... 4 world series pics below by SCOTT SOMMERDORF Well, if crime fighters fight crime and fire fighters fight fire, what do freedom fighters fight? They never mention that part to us, do they? Who decides when the applause should die down? It seems like it's a group decision; everyone begins to say to themselves at the same time, "Well, okay, that's enough of that." If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation? hellmuth should leave the glasses on...especially when he's right across from me...ha Ever wonder about those people who spend $2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward. What if there were no hypothetical questions? If a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked?.. ".. ".. ..

I'd like to meet:

Have you ever noticed? Anybody going slower than you is an idiot, andanyone going faster than you is a moron I'm not concerned about all hell breaking loose, but that a PART of hell will break loose... it'll be much harder to detect Anyone that adds to my life.... I value friendships above all else in life, and true friends are hard to come by. I want to meet people that share my enthusiasm for certain things....people that add a different element to the group, and people that are more concerned with where they are, and where they're going, instead of people that focus on doing what is socially acceptable. Anyone that shows me a good personality, a humorous side, and a genuine attitude...I would be interested in getting to know. If your biggest accomplishment relates to anything that can be on Cribs or Pimp my Ride, and that's all you want to talk about....not my style, sorry.
