Dont you just love those stupid things that happen to you when your hanging out with your friends? I sure as heck do! This is one of those times...
Alright, me and my friends were at the bowling alley just the other day. We get there and we all start bowling. Ok I will have to admit I do bowl like a screwball and I have the weirdest way of approaching and throwing the ball. I normally walk right up to the throwing line and I hold the ball with my wrist facing down(which means I throw the ball upside down as well) So Christina and Jessica tried to teach me how to do it “right.” I normally hit most of the pins with my own method but I decided to try their way instead.
So I tried the run-and-toss method that they taught me and well… I must’ve tripped over my own toe or something and I fell flat on my face. It was really funny! (to them anyway) They told me that I have to brake with my heels and not with my toes when I toss it and so I tried again… and it worked. I got a single pin in that frame and I figured that I can do it pretty alright. Untill a few frames later…
It was the ninth frame frame and the score between us three was really close to even. I went to go get my ball and make my frame. But when I started down the lane to throw my ball I slipped again and ended up doing forward splits! (which I am able to do without castrating myself thankfully) But in the process of doing that I ripped the seam of my pants wide open; Just right along the middle seam where the zipper is and the seat of my pants as well! It was embarrassing as heck! Not to mention everyone in the bowling alley saw what color my underwear was as well!(extremely embarrassing, especially where I was the only guy in my group) so I had to use my jacket to cover up untill I got back to school and a new pair of pants! It was a very bad ride home…
I learned two valuable lessons that day; one in humility, and another in bowling shoes. I think I will stick to my own methods from now on…

The End Of The Red Bandit Gang
“Them Red Bandits are coming! They’re on their way up the mountain!” Yelled Jimmy, one of the younger silver mine workers as he was running up the hillside towards the silver mine.
“Dang! and we are outta powder for our guns too! Whad are we gonna do Tom?” another worker yelled from inside the mine.
“Lets send somebody to get the local sheriff! Jimmy, you’re the fastest runner of us so you go! The sheriff lives just in the town below us so you can make it there and back quick! So go!” Tom, the unofficial leader of the miners, yelled from the entrance of the mine.
“Alrighty im goin!” Jimmy replies running down the hillside through the trees. Just as he disappeared from Tom’s view twelve rough looking gunmen on horses come riding on through the bushes towards the silver mine waving and shooting their rifles into the air. They came trampling up to near the mines entrance and the leader of the group spoke in a loud booming voice:
“Awright! Nobody move! Were here for the silver and any valuables that any of you potguts have on ya, or in that there mine! Now everybody come out or we’ll all start hunting you down and take everything! We only want the valuables, we wont shoot any of ya if you do as we say!”
“Okay we are coming out!” Tom replied as he and all of the other miners came out of the mine one by one with their hands in the air.
“lets round em’ up boys!” the leader of the Red Bandits yelled to his gunmen as they started to gather anything worth anything from the defenseless miners.
Meanwhile, Jimmy was running as fast as he could towards the town, almost rolling and stumbling as much as he was running down the steep hillside. He heard gunshots far behind him ring out through the trees. Being worried about his fellow miners he pumped his legs even more desperately trying to make to the town before it was too late to help them. When he got there he ran right up to the Sheriff who was at the local saloon talking to his horse and his deputy. Huffing for breath he tried to explain the situation about the Red Bandits at the silver mine up the mountain. The Sheriff listened intently to this dirt covered silver miner, trying to make sense of his words. When the Sheriff finally understood what Jimmy had to say he asked how many of the gunmen were currently at the mine. Jimmy just shook his head, unsure of how many of them there were.
The Sheriff immediately sent his deputy into the saloon to get a group of townspeople together and meanwhile got Jimmy a horse and a gun from the stables. When the group was assembled outside the saloon the Sheriff looked them over and told them the situation at the mine, telling them not to shoot any of the miners. And so the meager militia town group began to ride up the mountain towards the mine. When they reached the mine they noticed that the Red Bandits had dug themselves in around the mine and were apparently waiting for them. Fighting immediately ensued between the two groups. Gunshots rattled through the air and the towns people were taking on casualties as they tried to scramble for cover in the trees. The battle was going bad for the towns people, already four were down and several more had been shot at least once. While it seemed that only one of the Red Bandits was downed, and the rest was more than ready to continue the fight. The gunfight continued this way for a few more minutes and then it was over. The Sheriff and the remainder of the towns people slowly began to retreat down the hillside.
The Red Bandits noticed this and was hooting and hollering in triumph, still shooting in the direction of the retreating townsfolk. The leader of the Red Bandits spoke aloud to his group in his booming voice:
“Lets chase em’ down the mountain a’ ways boys, that way, we can come back up here and make our escape with our loot! Lets show em’ how we Red Bandits do business! What say you?!” Wails and hoots erupted from the entire group as they all began to run after the sheriff and the townspeople.
When they left the site, Jimmy, who was hiding in a bush playing dead, popped up out of it and ran into the mine looking for his fellow miners. He found them all bound and gagged up in a dark corner of the mine and he pulled out his knife and loosed them all. He told them what was going on and how they would be returning real soon to collect the loot. Tom came up with an idea an said:
“Hey we could plant a stick of dynamite in the pile of goods that they have gathered! And when they all come to collect, well, they will be collecting all right!” murmurs of agreement came from all of the miners. “Okay lets do it!” So Tom and Jimmy grabbed a stick of dynamite and they dug it into the pile of valuables hidden from view. They then set a detonation cord from the dynamite and into the mine and they sat and waited. Soon the Red Bandit gang came running back as fast as they could to the mine entrance and they were yelling at each other. The Red Bandit leader yelled out:
“Stop it, all of ya! There is an even bigger towns group coming up the mountain even as I speak, so instead of fighting and risking the goods we have, lets just grab it and go, everyone takes a load. We only have a few minutes to get away before they show up so lets get a move on. Now, GET MOVING!” So the entire group began to stuff the valuables into their pockets and onto their horses as fast as they could. Tom and Jimmy along with the other miners watched this and right when they reached the dynamite, Tom pushed the plunger down on the detonation cord. There was a massive explosion from outside the mine and when the dirt and dust cleared the miners looked out the mine entrance and found only a crater where the Red Bandit gang was only a minute before. Before too long the second group of townsfolk and the sheriff reached the site and stood in amazement at what had just happened. The miners came out of the mine and Tom told them what had just happened. The Sheriff shook his head and said:
“More than one way to skin a cat I guess…” and they all began to recover the wounded from the fight and the miners began to search for any remains of the Red Bandit gang.
“Dang! and we are outta powder for our guns too! Whad are we gonna do Tom?” another worker yelled from inside the mine.

The One I Want
What I want is someone
A friend who’s always there,
Someone I can talk to
One I know will care
You’ve been that one I wanted
Since the day we met
From the moment I set eyes on you
I’ve know my heart was set
You stole it right out of my chest
When I looked up to see
Those two dark pools you call your eyes
Looking down on me
I don’t want to lose you now
We’ve only just begun
To see each other more than friends
To share our endless fun
So why do I keep feeling
Like we’re drifting far apart
You know I won’t live for long
When you’ve still got my heart
So I hope that you remember
That I still love you more
Than any word will ever say
Or could have said before
A friend who’s always there,
Someone I can talk to
One I know will care
You’ve been that one I wanted
Since the day we met
From the moment I set eyes on you
I’ve know my heart was set
You stole it right out of my chest
When I looked up to see
Those two dark pools you call your eyes
Looking down on me
I don’t want to lose you now
We’ve only just begun
To see each other more than friends
To share our endless fun
So why do I keep feeling
Like we’re drifting far apart
You know I won’t live for long
When you’ve still got my heart
So I hope that you remember
That I still love you more
Than any word will ever say
Or could have said before
Would You
If I told you that I loved you,
Would you turn and walk away?
If I told you that I needed you,
Would you hold my hand and stay?
If I showed you all my scars,
Would you run and leave me here?
If I cried in front of you,
Would you even shed a tear?
If I told you all my secrets,
Would you promise not to tell?
If I tried my best to fly,
Would you catch me if I fell?
If I told you what was wrong,
Would you try to make it right?
If I was falling apart,
Would you hold me nice and tight?
If I spilled my heart in front of you?
Would you turn and walk away?
If I told you that I loved you,
Would you promise you would stay?
Would you turn and walk away?
If I told you that I needed you,
Would you hold my hand and stay?
If I showed you all my scars,
Would you run and leave me here?
If I cried in front of you,
Would you even shed a tear?
If I told you all my secrets,
Would you promise not to tell?
If I tried my best to fly,
Would you catch me if I fell?
If I told you what was wrong,
Would you try to make it right?
If I was falling apart,
Would you hold me nice and tight?
If I spilled my heart in front of you?
Would you turn and walk away?
If I told you that I loved you,
Would you promise you would stay?
The Fire That Burns
The way I feel inside
There is no words that can explain it.
I can’t express how I feel inside,
Just show and hope you feel it too.
From the way I talk
To the emotion you feel,
From everything I let you feel from me.
It’s the love that I have,
The love that I want to give
Is only a heartbeat away.
I just wish you were here all the time to see it.
What You Did
Oh, what was that single wrong that I have ever done to you?
Every touch, promise, truth, and heart that I have ever given to you,
And what did you do to me in return?
That every single wrong that you have ever given me,
Every touch, lie, hurt, and deception,
Yellow Puss Filled Blisters Stewing in my Heart.
Every touch, promise, truth, and heart that I have ever given to you,
And what did you do to me in return?
That every single wrong that you have ever given me,
Every touch, lie, hurt, and deception,
Yellow Puss Filled Blisters Stewing in my Heart.
There She is
There she stands, as the red rose stands out from dead ones on the bush of roses;
There she speaks, as the wooden wind chime sings in the breeze of summer;
There she sees, as the sun sets its eye upon the green clovers and warms them;
There she laughs, as the ice cold water splashes upon my face at morning;
There she smiles, as the bright orange hummingbird soars into the sky;
There she believes, as the little garden ant carries a pea;
There she kisses me, as the sweet golden honey touches my lips;
There she is, the one who is always there for me;
Her name is Tay, who is the apple in my eye.
There she speaks, as the wooden wind chime sings in the breeze of summer;
There she sees, as the sun sets its eye upon the green clovers and warms them;
There she laughs, as the ice cold water splashes upon my face at morning;
There she smiles, as the bright orange hummingbird soars into the sky;
There she believes, as the little garden ant carries a pea;
There she kisses me, as the sweet golden honey touches my lips;
There she is, the one who is always there for me;
Her name is Tay, who is the apple in my eye.

Tears Dont Fall
A drop in the pool creates a ripple effect,
Disturbing the once-still water.
Another drop falls, followed by others,
They begin to add to the size and depth to the already deep dark pool.
Many more come, falling down,
Dementing and adding to the ever-growing pool.
The drops then cease,
Leaving the disturbed pool to slowly ebb and relax,
Only to be filled and dismayed even more when the drops come again…
The Fire That Burns
The way I feel inside
There is no words that can explain it.
I can’t express how I feel inside,
Just show and hope you feel it too.
From the way I talk
To the emotion you feel,
From everything I let you feel from me.
It’s the love that I have,
The love that I want to give
Is only a heartbeat away.
I just wish you were here all the time to see it.
