Free Jason Aldean concert for the U.S. Navy.

MWR and the Virginia Beach USO put together a nice show for military members at the Little Creek Amphibious Base on Friday, August 7th, 2009. Although I am not a fan of country music, my girlfriend is.

She really wanted to go and I'm a nice guy so I agreed to go with her. Sure I felt out of place but sometimes one must compromise in a relationship. Right?!

We got there around 5:00 and the show didn't really start 'till 7. Apparently everybody knew to take chairs except for us. So we stood most of the time, save the few times we just sat on the grass and got nice little green stains on our jeans.

7 finally rolled around and some local country singers came on stage. It was the most boring thing I had ever seen. People just stood there (or like most, sat there) and barely nodded their heads at the music. Hours went by and at 8:30 Jason Aldean came out with the usual light show they provide for the main event. His songs started strong and got slower and more boring towards the middle and end.

By this time, every single person on that lawn was on their feet, with a 36 oz beer in their hands and still just slightly nodding their necks at the music. Some danced, others sang a long. I stood there, badazled by the experience of what they call a "Country Concert". I honstly just didn't see what was so great about it.

People can talk down hip-hop and R&B. Say whatever they want about it, but it doesn't take much to see where the fun is at. I'm not an advocate for new artist like Soulja Boy, Drake and the lot of them. And sure I agree hip-hop is not what it used to be, but I would still prefer to see a rap concert than a country one, minus Soulja Boy.

After it was all said and done, it was 9:30pm and we were headed out. My girlfriend said she had a great time. I smiled and said I was glad she did, and that her having fun made me have fun as well. To be honest, if she hadn't been there I would have had the worst 4 hours of my life.

Apart from it all, it was very generous of MWR, the USO and all the sponsors to put on such a great and enjoyable show for country fans. Mostly though, of Jason Aldean for doing the show free of charge for military and their families.

A little appreciation goes a long way. It's people like him that make us proud to serve.

Epic Boobs.

I would be a bad person if I didn't share this with you all.

Who do I confide in?

Listen up ladies and gentlemen, I'm about to teach you a lesson I've learned the hard way. It's a very simple lesson and it comes from the heart; not to mention life experience.

Guys, when a girl (especially your friends girlfriend) gives you friendship, does not mean she wants you in her stomach. Some women find it easier to confide in the opposite sex. Lets be honest, most women give bad advice. That may sound sexist sure, but it's because women think with their hearts. When we, as the more simple species use our brains (when we're not horny that is).

That doesn't make women absolutely innocent either.

What makes you think it's socially acceptable to share your inner most feelings with a man other than your partner? Relationships work best when communication is frequent and fluent. If there's something bothering you, or you're upset, just walk away. Give yourself time to cool down and analyze the situation. Then when you're ready, sit down and talk about your issues with your partner.

You'll find that after your cool-down period, most situations are easy to defuse.

In addition, most people in the world are not out to be your friends. It may seem that way at first but there's almost always a secret agenda. Something they want from you or something they think you want from them. Sex is the most common.

Ladies, confide in your significant other when problems arise. But don't forget that cool down period! If you absolutely must talk to someone other than your partner, seek a girlfriend. One that you know wont hold anything against you or tell your partner via text message 2 minutes after your conversation is over.

Men, same cool down period applies, although ours may be longer and include alcohol consumption.

Most importantly though, if your friends girl confides something in you, take it for what it is and give her the best advice you can. At the end of your talk make sure to mention that it's best if she goes to your friend (her boyfriend) next time. Just to keep things appropriate. Also include that you think your friend would like it if she asked him about these things because it would make him feel that his opinion is important to her.

Don't try to stick it up their backside the first chance you get. Then again, if you try this and it happens she wasn't a very good girlfriend and you're a horrible friend. If you try it and it doesn't happen, you're an even shittier friend.

Rule number 1 in Man Law. Don't EVER fuck your friends girl.

The end.

The Beginning.

Welcome to my blog. I've had a blog before. It didn't keep my interest long. However, this time I think it will workout better because I've got an idea, for lack of a better word.

I want to express what I feel to anyone who cares to read. The topic hasn't been decided yet, but I'm sure it will come to me very soon.

Then again, who really needs a specific topic these days? I could babble for hours about any single thing; video games, movies, books, sports, women, relationships, etc.

So I will be posting about many things. Until I find one specific topic to dedicate 100% of my effort to.

Again, welcome to my blog. I hope what I write motivates or enlightens you in some way.
