Blog Entry 36 of 82 Baseball,football,the Grateful Dead,Jesus and me
Could be politics, religion, music, sports, family life or anything in-between and outside the lines. (I refuse to say "outside the box," even if my chosen line means exactly the same thing) Chronologically, I'm 40. The consensus among those who know me best puts me somewhere between 10 and 13 in terms of maturity. I love listening to Jimmy Buffett, the Grateful Dead, the Allman Brothers and all acts Country (except the Dixie Chicks who offended my long-held,closed-minded view of decent behavior) I have deep, strong beliefs in all things I believe in and sometimes in things I don't. I pride myself in my contradictory nature even though it is a sign of weakness to change one's mind. I have been known to waver more than John Kerry talking about national defense, though I remain steadfast in my beliefs. I am prepared to argue to the death on one issue and one issue alone; Dickey Betts should be allowed back in the Allman Brothers. On this, there is no compromise. I believe in compromise in all other areas so long as the compromise includes everything that I want or believe in. In all seriousness, I am a lucky man, blessed with a wonderful family and an uncanny ability to not care about anything if the situation requires such. I believe that minds are like parachutes in that they have been known to fail their user, albeit with a slightly lower fatality rate. So that's me, or at least that's kind of me. I mean, I felt that way right before I didn't.

What's this beer night?
Contributed by: Bill Prather   on 9/17/2007

So what is this "Beer Night" thing I keep reading about? I'm thinking it's some sort of code. Perhaps yourhub.com bloggers are plotting a takeover of the world? Or at least greater Denver.

Maybe it's just an inside joke for "the chosen." Read through entries from the metro area and you will find several references to "Beer Night." Yet nowhere do you find an explanation. I think it's a ruse. I doubt that there is any such thing as "Beer Night."

Possibly I'm not invited because I'm a Ravens fan? Perhaps the fact that I'm a dog guy and not particularly fond of cats has me blacklisted? Is it because I don't drink wine like Mike?

I mean, gee, my feelings might really be hurt, if I had any. You know us conservatives.

That's okay, who needs "Beer Night," anyway. I can have that every night. Right here, at my computer. After my family is alseep and I'm left . . . alone . . . just me and my . . . dogs . . . and beer . . . damn, my social life stinks!

Someone tell me what's going on! Please?

On second thought, who needs you? I sure don't. What's so great about some stupid "Beer Night," anyway?I mean . . . darn it!

"I'm dyin' over here!!" Pacino, Dog DayAfternoon. Thanks.

If only someone invited me to "Beer Night." Then I could astound you with my knowledge of useless stuff. Remember, "Stuff is good." Bill Prather, yourhub.com.

But you would know that if you cared enough to invite me "Beer Night!"

Yes, I wonder about this so-called "Beer Night." It can't be all that cool. I mean, how cool can it be if I've never even been invited?

Ooooohhhhhhh. I get it now.

Beer Night. Maybe someday, I'll be cool enough to know.
