The Slap Chop…from the Sham Wow guy

First we had Sham Wow, and now we have the Slap Chop. Some memorable quotes from this one:
- “You’ll love my nuts”
- “We’re going to make American skinny again one slap at a time”
- “…onion with the skin. This is making you cry. You’re making me cry. Life’s hard enough as it is. You don’t want to cry anymore”
Merry Christmas

I just want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. I had an amazing Christmas Eve with Melanie and her family and I’m about to leave to go spend Christmas with my family. Thank you to everyone who got me a gift and I hope the gifts I got you, albeit a little limited by my financial situation, were just as good for you.
On a side note, I’m actually having a merry Christmas. It’s amazing how much my life has turned around since last year. I have a lot of people to thank, but I’m going to save that for the new year.
Which sidebar section do you view the least?

In an attempt to phase out information no one cares about and bring in new content that may bring in repeat visitors, I would like to ask all of you which sections of the sidebar do you view/use the least? I’ve included all sections except the list of categories, the “Meta” field where you sign in and the links section (have to link to sites to get links back). Besides that, everything else is up for possible removal. Let me know what you think by, at least, voting. A comment discussing the possible changes would also help. Thanks guy and girls.

The video is a continuation of the story told in the video for “Believe”. For the uninitiated, this is a mainstream love song that just kicks ass.

Oh man, this is one of those “love it or hate it” sort of things. If you’re easily offended, sorry lol.
Is there anything you’d like to see?

Every now and then I get bored and would like feedback from anyone, in general, about what you’d like to see added or removed from the site. Usually, I get no replies, but I’m hoping that can change this time around. Surprise me. Please.
But yeah, what would you like to see? Anything in particular? Any kind of content or is certain content (like music videos) annoying you and you want it gone? One thing I was considering was removing the recent posts by category on the left and using that for something else (maybe a shoutbox, again), but I’m not sure if people actually use those links.
Give me a clue here, people. I want to make this site interesting, even though it centers around a life that may not always be as such.

In my last journal entry, I briefly mentioned how Staind used a Johnny Cash song to open their set (they didn’t cover it, just played his version over the speaker system). This is the song. Simple video with a ton of modern celebrities.
Would you mind a summary view on the front page?

I’ve been considering the possibility of no longer putting full posts on the front page, but, instead, putting short summaries (just the first few sentences of the post) and then giving you the option to click through to the full post if you are interested in what you see. There’s a few pros and cons to this:
Pros:
- I’d be able to fit about 50% more articles on the front page
- It would be easier to find content you like due to less scrolling
- Newer content wouldn’t get bumped below the fold so quickly
Cons:
- You would have to click a “read more” link to view the entire article
- Summaries may not show all the randomness I convey in my journal entries
So, what would you like to see happen? Leave it as it is now or try working with a summary view?

Everclear’s latest album, “The Vegas Years”, is a cover album and this is one of the songs on it. I just like it, that’s all.

A happy birthday to my mom. She’s helped out a lot since I’ve moved out and it’s immensely appreciated. Thank you, mom.
