When I walk, I make the earth spin smoother. When I dance, I make the sky light up. If I were to take out a loan, the bank would pay me to hold on to it. Seven of my ten fingers have rings and six of my seven rings have emeralds. I eat an entire cow for breakfast and I drink an entire Dr. Pepper in 3 seconds. Women don't notice me when they walk by, but they do immediately realize that they let something amazing get away. I wish upon stars at night. The stars wish right back. If I had a third arm, I would have three elbows. My mind is a mess of thought that just doesn't stay straight. Everyone I know wants to shake my hand...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2674310162342831287-1791487242306751114?l=gregorytes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/feeds/1791487242306751114/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/2009/08/will-you-just-shut-up.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2674310162342831287/posts/default/1791487242306751114'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2674310162342831287/posts/default/1791487242306751114'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/2009/08/will-you-just-shut-up.html' title='Will you just shut up!'/><author><name>Gregory</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02681073402067919298</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScXVD0Id-KI/AAAAAAAAABI/iDg6essZ27o/S220/m_b15744c3da64d52817b3b46af46be0e2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2674310162342831287.post-487415782913661970</id><published>2009-07-14T23:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-14T23:51:53.322-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Okay then...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/Sl18e8_w1mI/AAAAAAAAACc/MUN4hipMMxA/s1600-h/Comic+6.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 189px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/Sl18e8_w1mI/AAAAAAAAACc/MUN4hipMMxA/s320/Comic+6.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5358576002852247138" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Soooooooo much has been happening.

With the premier album, It Keeps Them Young, they have made it to mass stardom. The effort of pictures and posting songs on MySpace would have been too much effort... I may do it tomorrow, but I don't have the necessary camera stuff... Check out the songs if you want... they're on the &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/weaselwordband"&gt;Weasel Word&lt;/a&gt; page.&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  This picture isn't really mine... It may belong to someone... I apologize, but I won't be making money with it so... I think it's a wonderful picture none-the-less...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2674310162342831287-1099621959960163401?l=gregorytes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/feeds/1099621959960163401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/2009/03/so-after-many-weeks-of-brainstorming.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2674310162342831287/posts/default/1099621959960163401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2674310162342831287/posts/default/1099621959960163401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/2009/03/so-after-many-weeks-of-brainstorming.html' title='New South Wales'/><author><name>Gregory</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02681073402067919298</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScXVD0Id-KI/AAAAAAAAABI/iDg6essZ27o/S220/m_b15744c3da64d52817b3b46af46be0e2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScxxnxKlo_I/AAAAAAAAACE/demhgDHKKqw/s72-c/3298078774_de17e1609a.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2674310162342831287.post-980153219625909727</id><published>2009-03-22T12:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-22T12:15:42.340-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Monster Mash!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScaL79n-yPI/AAAAAAAAABo/D6qSHUZmDEE/s1600-h/Photo+97.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScaL79n-yPI/AAAAAAAAABo/D6qSHUZmDEE/s320/Photo+97.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316090272428247282" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;So before work I got the urge to make a new monster. I have made some oddities out of clay and plastic over the course of the past few months, but those are legit art pieces so I won't open them up for criticism just yet. But do not be discouraged cadets! I have unveiled these two older creations and have today created my first life-sized monster! That's right! Today I unleashed a life-sized replica of a Brazilian Alligator Titan! &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScaNvavzkJI/AAAAAAAAABw/hXsgqNJnLWk/s320/Photo+101.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316092255930650770" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  As you can see, it is a friendly type of creature. It seems to enjoy the sunny environment that my backyard offers. The leech infested muskeg that is our hot tub... He would like to have a housewarming party soon so if you would like to have dinner in the bog, please let me know. You are more than welcome to attend. I am told there will be twister...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2674310162342831287-980153219625909727?l=gregorytes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/feeds/980153219625909727/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/2009/03/monster-mash.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2674310162342831287/posts/default/980153219625909727'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2674310162342831287/posts/default/980153219625909727'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gregorytes.blogspot.com/2009/03/monster-mash.html' title='Monster Mash!!!'/><author><name>Gregory</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02681073402067919298</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScXVD0Id-KI/AAAAAAAAABI/iDg6essZ27o/S220/m_b15744c3da64d52817b3b46af46be0e2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7B00lSQdXPM/ScaL79n-yPI/AAAAAAAAABo/D6qSHUZmDEE/s72-c/Photo+97.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
