is all this can be. When I am done I will be in more hot water. I am 60 years old and have never known the side of life that lets a person pick the subjects that interest them without the benefit of others in a like social situation.
To watch baseball by myself, drink beer alone, or play solitare for more than 10 minutes is not my bag. I can watch young animals or children make lifes small discovery's with joy, I can find something good about most situations and people, but I am starting to wonder about our society.
I do not watch a lot of news programs or read every page of the newspaper. I do try to get facts from any source I can that deals with any portion of my life and do shoot off my mouth about what I believe in.
I currently own a restaurant/bar with a family type atmosphere in a small town. I know over 50% of the customers that come thru the door well enough to say hi and ask how they are doing no matter where I see them.
I have a construction, logging, sawmill, scrap recycler background. I have been doing a little of all these things since before I turned ten years old. Needless to say I have very seldom ever been unemployed. I try to keep up with the laws and regulations that affect me and the things I am interested in.
Today I was told that I am thought to be an instigator and a trouble maker.
I make a lot of jokes that are off color with little or no regard to anything except that I try to be in adult company. I say what comes to mind at the time and if you can show me facts that come from more than one source, and that I can't dispute with other facts, I am always willing to change my position on any given subject.
I talk loud, and to anyone that will listen. Or sometimes not. I don't always hear what is being said to me, especially if I can't see your lips. I am opinionated to say the least. I have very definite views on religon, politics and sex. All of which tend to get me in trouble if I voice my thoughts anywhere around people.
This doesn't mean that I hold back, just that I am constantly in trouble for voicing my thoughts. My biggest detractor is my wife. She doesn't want me to tell a story, swear, talk politics or religion in the bar, or make any kind of decision when I have had a beer before hand. Especially without getting her opinion first. She is scared to death that someone is going to file a sexual harrassment suit against me for telling a joke in my own place. She doesn't want to hear any political discussions because someone might get loud. And the worst thing of all is her constant fear that some gorgeous young girl is going to ride up and kidnap me for their own use.
No matter how much I try, I am unable to convince here that it will take more than a pretty face and a new table saw to snag me away from her.
Thanks for letting me get these disturbing thoughts off my mind.
