ThunderstruckAC/DC


Pivotal Song QuoteAnd I was shaking at the knees
Time In My LifeThis song was the theme song for my high school hockeyteam. Growing up in a football town without a good football team was perfectwhen their hockey team was state caliber! hahaha... As the lights would dim andthe crowd consisting of students, teachers, parents and local yokels would gonuts to the sounds of Angus's guitar riff and the fact that a game was about toget underway. Every time I hear it I miss the excit...

Chapter 10: MAN-view of 50 Shades


Okay, so I only did chapter 10 today because I’m guessing this is the most crucial chapter of the entire series. I wanted to hit it hard ;) because I think it offered so much information.
My thoughts and opinions on the book and the characters. It's definitely MAN-view thought, so read on and enjoy!  

SPOILERS AHEAD! If you haven't read Fifty, and you don't want to be spoiled, you've been warned!

Chapter 10

Say It Ain't So: 5-24-2012

Say It Ain't SoWeezer


Pivotal Song Quote
Your drug is a heart breaker.
Time In My LifeHonestly, all I know is that this song flings me back to thehigh school days when life was easy and fun was plentiful!  

My TakeSometimes even though we don't want to hear it, or believe it,or accept it, we have to. Saying it ain't so wont make it not so... it will make itreal.

Pepper: 5-23-2012

Pivotal Song QuoteI can taste you on my lipsAnd smell you on my clothes 
Time In My LifeThis song made my it appearance when my brother would secretively watch Beavis and Butthead behind my parents back...  And of course anything that was taboo was interesting to a grade schooler (me).

My TakeLife is a painting that can be interpreted in many different ways through many different eyes. What is seen as beautiful through one set can be portrayed as terrifyin...

Good: 5-22-2012

Good Better Than Ezra


Pivotal Song QuoteBut I'm not too sure, and I'm not too proud.
Time In My LifeI have no clue when I first heard this song but I know when I did it felt like I had heard it a thousand times before. It is such a groovy song that gets you to smile no matter what!
My TakeIt is a shame that many times we only see the good after it is gone. So many things in life are GOOD so make sure to appreciate them while they are here and not after they are gone.

Play That Funky Music: 5-21-2012


Play That Funky Music Wild Cherry



Pivotal Song QuotePlay that funky music white boyPlay that funky music right

Time In My LifeI honestly wish I had grown up in the seventies.   For many reasons, but bellbottoms are one of them! I have a real thing for those duds, but unfortunately I would be chastised if I dared wear them in public. Except for the one time of year I can skate by with it... Halloween!!!  So help me God, I want to bring them back!
My TakeUnderstanding that b...

Chapters 7-9: MAN-view of 50 Shades

My thoughts and opinions on the book and the characters.  It's definitely MAN-view thought, so read on and enjoy!

Chapter 7
Now this is where it gets interesting. If I was in Ana’s shoes and stepped into the "Playroom" of a gorgeous billionairess that had chains, whips, hand cuffs, paddles and probably some kind of blowtorch hidden somewhere, I wouldn’t know what to think. My brain would...

Time In My LifeMy father is my "guru" when it comes to classicrock.  He knows everything about it, yet itseems he never remembers the lyrics.  Thatdoesn't stop him from singing, especially when he’s had a glass of wine or two.Listening to him try and explain this song several times while sitting around acamp fire was...

Pivotal Song Quote
Am I just paranoid?
Am I just stoned?


Time In My LifeI will never forget singing this song and accidentallysaying the word, ‘masturbation’ in front of my mother.  She was stunned, but that was probably more dueto the fact I was in grade school and probably didn’t even know what it meant.I wonder what she thinks about what I am doing now?! haha!!
My Take
We all need to be a little different because that is whatgives life flavor. If everyone looked like Br...

Pivotal Song QuoteIt's a magic kind of medicine
That no doctor could prescribe


Time In My Life
I literally grew up a 'parrot head' attending every JimmyBuffet concert western PA had to offer from my eighth grade year until my firstyear in medical school (pre Mr USA). These shows are indescribable. I grew up many different ways at each one I attended!

My TakeThere is something that each person holds close to their heart that makes them smile regardless...
