"Your beating a dead horse, give up already, and get a job." Needless to say, my father is not a fan of my blog or any other ideas that I have..I get it, and I'm perfectly fine with it. The problem being? The ideas I preach about require investment, and the first question out of every would be investors mouth, nowadays? Is your father going to invest? Well, I'm hear to tell you the answer to that question is no! I've done my due diligence with him..He has nothing financially, philosophically, politically, personally..Whatever ly your looking for? He ain't got it, and if he does? He's not willing to share it. Now don't get me wrong, I love and respect my father a lot, but for some reason or another, people think him and are attached at the hip. I'm hear to tell you that is not the case, and the sooner I can make that clear? The better off I will be! The reason for the rant? I promised a potential investor that I would chat with my father about investing again. It made my stomach turn doing it. But, when a potential investor tells you to do something? You do it!
I have an interesting family fact to share with my viewer's. Uncle Joe is the only known nudist in our family. The last 10 years Joe has called a nudist camp in Kansas his home. I asked what it was like living in a nudist camp? His response? "Just like living anywhere else, except your naked all the time." Well, my uncle Joe is a big fan of the blog..So, I called him today in order to get some much needed feedback. To me? Feedback for my blog is a welcome blessing. I don't care if people like or dislike my blog, I just want to know what they think of it..Feedback is how things get better..That's my belief anyways..
"Uncle Joe, what do think about my blog? I haven't heard much from you about it lately. So lets hear what you think." My uncle Joe is not a person who minces his words. So, whenever he gives me advice about the blog? I listen.."Robbie, the blog is getting boring to me?" I've heard a number of different opinions about the blog, and I never heard anyone describe it as boring.."What do you mean it's boring?" Boring is not a word I want associated with my blog, so I had to get to the bottom of this. "It's starting to be all about the same thing. Basically, you find a girl in Vegas you like, you put the move on her, and she shoots you down..That story is getting old. Don't you have anything new to blog about? How many times do I have to hear about you striking out. It gets old after a while." As I stated earlier, uncle Joe is not a guy who minces his words. So, I asked him this.."There is a lot more in the blog than me just striking out with the women. I emphasize it so much because that's what I thought people found amusing. That's what I hear from a lot of people anyways." "That theme is just getting old to me. Find something new to replace it, at least for a little while." Believe me, I am going to take my uncle's suggestion into consideration.
"Uncle Joe, I have another question for you. Do you think my writing portrays women in a negative light? That was my father's opinion." Obviously, the women in Las Vegas play a big part as characters in some of the stories. My father wasn't specific on his feedback, but my intuition tells me that he wasn't approving of the way I associated the women in Las Vegas with money.."I don't see that as anything bad. From the sounds of it, even if you had a pocketful of money. None of these girls would go out with you." Who knows? My uncle could be right? The truth of the matter is I'm not to popular with the women in Las Vegas. I don't gross them out or anything like that. I'm just irrelevant to them.."Believe me, no disrespect is meant by views about women, people reading this blog have to take it with a grain of salt..In the end, a majority of my posts revolve around me failing at something or another..I've been told by a couple of my viewer's that it's funny to watch a guy fail. Well, that's something I've been good at..So why not embellish it?" Uncle Joe. "Whatever, do the girls of Las Vegas a favor and give them a break for a while..Shit, your an excellent writer, surely you can think of something else to blog about?"
I like to end every post with a thought I'm having..Call it the village idiot thought of the day.."When people read my blog? I want them to forget about things for a moment, let me see if I can make you smile. If your really paying attention to it? I have a number of my ideas sprinkled throughout..Most people aren't paying that much attention to things..That's fine..In the end? I just want everyone to get a nice laugh out of it."
