I rember being at the Thomason house and watching this and i seriously laughed until i almost passed out... very Jonathan Burke, and very typical... Whenever you see a person that closely resembles this woman, i want you to smile and remember "Jon boy"... I Love you all...

Farewell BLOG!!! on to greener pastures

I have made the decision to stop blogging... not for a while, but forever... it was a good run, but pointless... Thank you to all my faithful readers, and i may still visit this, just to remember... but from now on, I think that my life is just not that exciting to the masses, thus, if you want to know what's going on with me, just call... much love,

New Artist spotlight: Ryan Shaw

Ladies and Gents, please let me introduce you to an artist that i stumbled across... Mr. Ryan Shaw. I LOVE Ryan's style of music... clean electric, solid beats, bass lines that are walking all over the place... Awesome horn section... this is the music that requires talent... not some cut track samples (Kanye, Jay-Z...). it's a soulful, feel free, compliment to the sounds of motown, with a modern voice... check him out at: www.jango.com. go to that website and type his name in the block.... my personal favorites are "We got love" and "Over and done"....

the Magical Night of the holiday party...



Magical evenings are a rarity anymore these days... when it happens, you openly accept them... This year I had the privilege of taking this classy, young lady to my holiday party for work... I'm gonna go ahead and say that I think we are a good looking couple... Kind of like Dean Martin and Jackie Kennedy of 2008... Company parties are always enjoyable, but when you can enjoy your company... Magic happens...

I got in a Fist Fight with KEILAN!!!!

My phone rings and its Keilan. I answered and said, “What’s up man?”, “Hey Buddy, can you come to Richmond?” he replied. I said, “I’m actually really busy right now, can we get together some other time?” “No Jon, you need to come down here, I need you right now.” So, I reluctantly, jumped on 95 to go see what my good friend needed. I called him when I got to Richmond and he told me to meet him at Sports Authority. I got there and He asked me to help him with selecting a pair of running shoes, because he was joining the U.S. Army. Now we all know that I threw away my running shoes the day I got out of the Army (probably like 6 months before). I told Keilan that I was not in touch with that, and furthermore, I was mad that he wouldn’t just ask me on the phone… He then asks, or challenges me to race him around the parking lot… I told him that I hadn’t run in years and that there would be no competition… as I was going to leave, Hot as all get out that I wasted PREMIUM gas to go down there, he tells me that I better not leave, or he would do something about it… I turned to walk away and felt a forceful shove from behind, it was Keilan, with his fists up to fight! I asked him what his problem was and why did he want to fight me. He told me that it didn’t matter, but it was about time this was happening… Then the sound of alarm clock was ringing as loud as can be from the Sky… and I woke up safely in my bed… Without having been “pummeled” by Kiki… is that the strangest dream or what???

Why I'm voting McCain/Palin 2008

There are a few reasons listed here...
1)McCain has depth and breadth of expreience that no one in the Obama Campaign has
2)Sarah Palin is SMOKING HOT for a 40-something woman
3)McCain was a Navy man, and a POW for over two years in Vietnam
4)Sarah Palin is a great mom... who can argue with a great mom
5) and finally.... this is one of Sarah Palin's best attributes....
