Homecoming was last night. I (kinda) went with Sam, and we had a great time. Her mom didn’t want me to pick her up, so basically we just met outside the door. Not very interesting, but hey, you take what you get, right? Well, today she sent me an email talking about the dance, and how she had a great time. Then she starts talking about her mom. Sam’s mom doesn’t like me. Or, well, she doesn’t trust me. Her mother, I think, is an excellent person, and actually is quite right in her po...
Noticed something a couple of days ago. Ashley and I are the only ones from the AC gang to have posted a new article within about 2 weeks. To be totally honest, I’m not sure what happened. Zoo seems to have hit writers block, Capt. never talks about JU anymore at school, and the rest... well they stayed in for about a month and then quit. Our school has a new foreign exchange student from China! According to him, there have only been two Chinese exchange students in OH, and he’s the sec...
All of the time I’ve been on this site, I’ve picked out a few favorite bloggers. They are encouraging to new members, and do their best to make this community better than it currently is. Without their help, JoeUser would not be the experience it is today. Without further adieu, I present, IMHO, some of the greatest JU bloggers. Mignuna http://mignuna.joeuser.com/ This wonderful lady has some of the best articles on JU. They are well thought out, funny, thought provoking, and all...
This article was originally written Saturday, Sept. 4, 2004. Due to a long football game and tired parents, I was unable to post this article until early Sunday morning. Today’s been interesting for me. Every Saturday, I normally play Magic: the Gathering with some friends at a local hobby shop. It’s a good way for me to relax, get my mind off of what I’ve been doing at school for a few hours. Today, however, my dad needed help building a new barn, so I did that instead. Today, when I got...
Commanding respect from a dangerous felon, gives strange a new meaning, I know that it’s hell on, This plane and I’d do anything that I can - - - to know, to feel, to live life once again. Powerful songs are sung by the masses, my mind moves slower than... *blink* But how can I get up, and get out, into the unknown when all I’ve been doing is siting on my ass? Hey yall! Haven’t posted in a while, so I figured I’d bring up latest developments of highlights that I think are gre...
Seems like for the past couple of days, I’ve been having a free time fiasco. Seems like I never have enough free time to get blogs written, read books, and do the things that I like. I know some of it is from starting up school again and taking all honors courses, but I expected to have a little more free time than this. So, senior year. I’ve got Physics, Calculus my first two periods. Same class. I don’t really even move. The homework is the toughest I’ve ever done, and I’m slipping. I do...
I live on a farm. Whilst I let that sink in, I’m going to talk about my 4-H club. My 4-H club which from now on I will call “Blank”, is a smaller club that basically deals with livestock. This is my last year in 4-H, since next year I will not be able to take a steer (male neutered cow) since I will be in college at the time of the show. The adviser for blank is a nice lady who I will now refer to as Mrs. Blank. Mrs. Blank does a pretty good job, and makes sure that everything is taken c...
So, I’m back again. Not that it’s like I was gone for but two days, but hey, I’m not a quitter, and secondly, when I heard about Draginol’s little blog about “Blogging for the wrong reasons” I felt like I should have some bit of a reply. Let me first say that I enjoy JoeUser. Let it also be known that the automated system helps me get readers, which I appreciate. Let me also say that I find it even more encouraging when someone replies to my blogs, gives feedback. That kind of thing make...
Been thinking about things lately. Been thinking a lot. Here's what I've come up with. I know how much I mean to this place. I'm a big fat zero, a basic null space that writes articles periodically. This I understand. Lately I've been unhappy with myself, a lot more than I feel is healthy and a lot more than I want to endure. I've noticed that I become more unhappy when I log on to joeuser.com to find that I have not had any replies to any of my articles, and that they tend to basica...
Hey Y’all! I’m listening to my trusty music player on my computer, and I’m listening to some pretty rockin music. The band I’m listening to right now is one of my favorite bands. The problem is, they aren’t on any national label. In all reality, they are an unknown band. As far as I know, these talented musicians are doing small gigs in the California, and coast areas. The band’s name is The Mercy Kiss, and you can visit their website here. Link My friend is a cousin of their drumm...
In a recent article, posted here , I asked if people would like to read fiction if I wrote it in a blog style, and I posted chapters periodically. The general consensus was yes, so I'm ready to hear what you think! I've posted the first chapter in my new blog group beebles-fiction. Link Check it out. Peace, Beebes
A warm welcome to all venturing onto the site today! This is my new blog group. It's name is Beebles-Fiction. The name has a two-fold purpose. 1)Beebles: I created it.... hmmm, I wonder why that's in there? 2) Fiction: I wanted to start posting a story on JU to see if anyone would like to read it. I'm also offering this blog-group to all aspiring and/or published writers who want some friendly feed-back, and constructive criticism on their work. So if anyone wants to post fiction ...
I’ve seen some fictional blogs on here before. I think we all have. It’s interesting that the one that seemed to have created the most drama has not posted anything lately, at least, as far as I know. What I want to know is this; Do you believe fictional blogging is good or bad? In my opinion, if a fictional blog is done right, you can end up with a insightful, interesting, thought provoking read. If you do it wrong, you generally have a lot of... well badness. Some of the people on her...
Recently I had a pretty bad arguement with my girlfriend. After we kissed and made up, I wrote this poem to her. It's short, but I hope you all enjoy it. What is speech without words? What is sight without light? What is touch without hands? What is love, without you?
Sometimes, getting through the first few sentences of a new article for my blog is the hardest part of writing. Sometimes I can’t think of something to write, so I come up with a fancy title that might catch someone’s eye and make them come read it, because I can honestly say that when I go to a blog because of the title, even if the blog is something I’m uninterested in, I feel obliged to read it because they sucked me in, and I deserve it. But this isn’t one of those times. I just got...
