Back on our team?


Rev. Ted Haggard is back to being a heterosexual. Hooray! Now, normally I try not to speak about sex or politics or the potty, but who are we kidding?

A 3 week course of intensive counciling was the cure. More interestingly, does this mean I could be gay in 3 weeks? Or you? Or everyone?

I smell reality tv show coming: 16 castaways, 9 weeks, who will become the ultimate different sexual orientation-er? Or maybe a Sandals - like place that promises to turn you back into what your spouse thought you were. Like a Betty Ford clinic...

I don't take this issue lightly and I use the above only to poke fun at the hypocracy of those who believe, well, believe that in 3 weeks you can shake your orientation. These are the folks that find fault in others and judge because they believe they have an inside line into a creators thoughts (which is mighty hubristic and usually contradicts their own teaching about judging)


It takes Sally Struthers 6 months to teach you how to do accounting, 6 weeks to learn to draw comics and 3 weeks to change what turns you on. Maybe the 5-minute ab people were onto something...

todays survey

Since you all have done so well with the past two surveys I've taken ( another shirt slogan for Dad and do you get full eating salad or just bored ), here is another: If you eat, say, a bag full of fortune cookies - and I am not saying I have - do they all come true or just a first/last rule? Do they all negate if you eat more than one? Anyone? Bueller?

And now we are One!!!!

Who would have thought: you would keep reading after day 3? I would keep writing after day 2? (see http://robertwmason.blogspot.com/ for reference) that you would get anything out of this? that I would get anything out of this? that I would make 250 posts into this thing..? And "get" I did. Last month, I signed my first contract for a writing position (in my free time) with a Rhode Island magazine. I used many excerpts from my blog as samples and they dug it, enough to want to pay me. I am very excited about that. A big thank you to all of you that keep reading that misadventures of my family, friends and I. The journey thus far has been fun and giving you a bird-eye view into our lives is weirdly fun. At first it was like walking around naked, now I am a full fledged nudist; so to speak. In looking back over the first year, I live like a king. Sometimes all it takes is a bit of reflection to see how good you've got it. Usually this hits me on business trips and ...

How I'll probably die

My new thing has gotten me running, yes running, the past week without complaint and without watching the clock. Unfortunately, the high-risk fringe sport will probably have Ian find me at the end of the treadmill runway, twisted, with a guitar slung from my neck. What is it you ask? Some kind of Mariachi Marathon? Close. Running while playing Guitar Hero is the greatest thing since running with my buddy Jeff. Come to think of it, that really was just running with someone calling you, "fatty" the whole time, but I digress. Running while jamming on guitar trying desperately to keep up with great hits like "American Women" and the surprisingly fitting, "Band on the run". See what I did there? Anyhow, it is freaking amazing. No longer are my eyes glued to the maddening clock. No longer am looking at data (which I seem to hate when it is counting my exercise), I am playing a game. I am a Rock God when I run. Now, I know what you are thinking. Being a...
