Ever hear this, from my man-crush Carolla: Isaac Hayes becomes highly inarticulate and confused during a morning radio interview. He's had a stroke or mini-stroke and it gets embarrassing for him.

I also have audio of some prominent baseball announcers that could theoretically get them fired, though probably not, depending on whether the boss doing the firing was a woman.

That brings to mind this:

[Big Sarge]

let me see...
1. i played cello and trombone.
2. i was selected as man of the year for the county i live in.
3. i was mistakenly reported on cnn as being killed in the line of duty after i was shot in a traffic stop in 1989.
4. i was an extra in several movies and tv shows.
5. i have written articles for several hunting and historical publications.
6. a girl i dated in high school later appeared in playboy's girls of the sec.
7. my college roommate hosted a show on tnt and is now an executive with tcm.

i feel like a washed up has been who would have been better off to have passed away 10 years ago while i was at my peak.

That's the nature of telling stories about your life. It's all in the past. At any point in your life, you can be telling stories, and each one of those stories is in the past. You'll certainly have stories that will happen to you in the future, but once they happen, they will be in the past and you'll be a has-been again.

I like to always have plans for a vacation or something else, so I've got something to look forward to. It's important for my mental health. Even if it's a year off.

I'd love a year off!

I know how Sarge feels (my 'coulda been a contender' comment) but we do tend to play down the things we're doing RFN.

It all shapes who we are today, the good and the bad.

I am glad you brought this up. I know I will feel better once I get this off my conscious. ( off my conscious?) whatever.

Last year I began wearing mens athletic socks. I find them massively superior to womens socks, even women's athletic socks.

Women's socks suck. Holes and piling and shrinking. Men's athletic socks last forever and ever; They hold their shape, they have cushion and arch support. I love them.

It's because sock magnates know that women love shopping for socks, and think that socks are wonderful gifts! As a service to women, so they don't end up with a huge backlog of unused socks, they make women's socks shoddy. Men will keep wearing a pair of socks until the holes are big enough for the foot to go through, so their socks need to be rugged.

True, True.

I don't like shopping for socks for myself because they are too expensive to have to constantly replace, but I do like giving socks. I am true to form there. Christmas, Valentine's, Halloween especially.

@ stormie, I think those are the best secrets I have ever heard almost anywhere!

@ casi, lol

I will definitly check this out! I hate all them holes on my socks. What's wrong with wearing men's socks anyways.

Who can tell anyway?! I just made sure I found a three pack I could visually see the size. The ones I found ran small. They are anklets and look like any other sock. No body can see the dirty little secret. heh heh

I am sure there are some good high quality women's athletic, like Keen but I don't want to pay $15. dollars for a pair. They are good looking socks though.

[skysidhe]

Yes...but I get them out of my chest to put them on so.....

Two words of advice Sky, get yourself a couple of pairs ("two pairs"), then you won't have to get them off your chest and you can still wear that other pair on your feet. Problem solved!

[plthijinx]

1. i used to race motocross and supercross
2. i played the bagpipes from 4th through 7th grade

[glatt]

bagpipes are cool. Do you think you could still play?
