Cell phones

My first option for a cell phone would be to get an iPhone 4S, because it would be a lot cheaper to get than a brand new iPhone, plus it does all the stuff a brand new iPhone can do so I do not see he point in getting a brand new iPhone.  I currently have an iPhone 4, and it is a very good smart phone for how much it cost me to buy.  It can be kind of slow at times, but this is because it is an older phone. But it gets the job done and I wouldn't want to get a new phone for any reason.

My second option for a cell phone would be a Rumor 2, they are old dumb phones with a sliding keyboard but you literally can not destroy these phones.  I have had on of these phones, and I dropped it in water on several occasions, and after it dried out it would work like it should, only some of the keypad lights would not light up but the button still worked.  The phone finally broke after I accidentally ran it over with my dads car, it would not even turn on afterwards.

Favorite Video Game

My favorite video is Call of Duty: World at war.  It is the first call of duty game I really got into, and I was hooked. I started playing games in my 8th grade year and slowly stopped by my 11th grade year.  I would literally play 20 days of different Call of Duty games a year.  I didn't go outside much during this time, unless the weather was absolutely fantastic out, or if friends wanted to hang out, or if I had to go to work.  But when I was big into playing, I would play from the minute I got home until about 10 at night and only taking major breaks to eat dinner and of course use the bathroom.  I am glad that I no longer play video games, as they take away a great deal of time from a persons social life.  The CoD games were just so addicting.  There wasn't really anything that great about them, they just sort of sucked you into the habit of having to play every single second you could.

Dream House

If money were not an issue, I would want to build a house in Alaska  in the mountains with an ocean and a mountain view, if possible.
At least 8 master bedrooms, a bathroom with every bedroom, an indoor movie theater and an indoor pool, the house would be at least 10,000 sq feet.  There would land with lost of forest for hunting and other out door recreational activities. There would be enough land for a helicopter pad and a hanger to house many helicopters. I would also have a port for boats and yachts, providing the water isn't frozen where my house is.

Russia going into Ukraine

Russia is going into a peninsula in Ukraine to take it over because it serves their national interests.  Its about Russia going to reclaim territory from the old Soviet Russia. This just happened these past few days and it is still happening.  It does not affect me directly, as the US does not have any interests in stopping Russia from going into Ukraine.

Saddest Moment

The most sad moment in my life that I can remember is attending my Great Grandfather's funeral.  He was 87 years old and served in the US Navy during World War Two.  All of those who were attending the funeral were family and close family friends.  It seemed as although everybody was there.  I was one of the casket bearers after the ceramony at the church, I helped load his casket into the back of the herse to go to the cemetery.  It was a cold day in late January of 2013, and everybody was huddled together to try to keep warm.  Since he was given a military burial, TAPS was played, and almost everybody started to cry if they weren't already.  His casket was lowered into the earth so he would forever be 6 feet under from that day on.  The preacher at the funeral said a few words, then everyone went to a dinner hall to eat and remember and talk about my Great Grandfathers life.

Rocky Mountains


I would want to go there or live there because of the amazing scenery that would be there.  I have been to the Rockies many times and I wouldn't think twice about living anywhere else.  You can go hiking here, hunt animals, go fishing, basically any out door activity is what you would do.  In the winter you could go down hill skiing, or snowboarding.  The picture is from Glacier National Park in northern Montana.

Black Lab


I would get a pure bread Black Lab, these ate excellent dogs, I currently have 2 pure breads and they are the greatest dog anyone could own.  They are a great family pet to have.  They are excellent with kids, easy to train, respectful of their owner and everyone they come in contact with and they also get along very well with other dogs.  I would need to buy dog food, toys for it to play with, a dog bed, food and water dishes, and some occasional bones for the dog to enjoy.

$150 paint job

I would buy cans of black spray paint, clear coat, and scotch tape to tape off the windows of the truck.  The truck pictured above I spray painted, and it turned out pretty good for being spray paint.

Chevrolet and Charger






This is a picture of my first pickup truck and Shawn Carlson's Dodge Charger on the last day of summer before the 2012-2013 school year.  The plan was to wash our vehicles before we drove them to school the next day.  Then I told Shawn to turn the wheels on his car for a cool looking picture.

Worst Movie Ever

The absolute worst  movie I have ever seen is Anchorman 2.  It has no plot line, the movie is very difficult to follow or understand while watching.  It makes terrible attempts to make humor at every intersection, and most of the time they hopelessly fail.  At the end of the movie, random things started to happen that had nothing to do with what was displayed in the earlier parts of the movie.

Cummins and Chevy

The black truck is a 1993 Dodge cummins W250 4x4, its one of my old pickups and I no longer have the truck.  The blue 1985 Chevy C30 is my dads chevy, and he still has it.  When spring rolls around and all the snow melts, he just might let me drive it! :D  He has had the chevy for 8 years now, and has no plans on getting rid of it.  I got rid of my old diesel because the transmission was going out on it.  The picture was taken in August of 2013 on a farm in Clayton, Wisconsin.

How You Remind Me - Nickelback Favorite song

  How You Remind Me -  Nickelback

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cQh1ccqu8M&feature=kp&safe=active



Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling

And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking
And I've been wrong, I've been down,
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream "are we having fun yet?"

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how, you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how, you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking
And I've been wrong, I've been down,
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream "are we having fun yet?"

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing

And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking
And I've been wrong, I've been down,
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream "are we having fun yet?"

[3x]
Yeah, yeah, are we having fun yet?

Yeah, yeah, no, no.


I like the song because its about a guy who is broken up with his ex girlfriend and he is trying to say that because they are no longer together, that he can finally be himself because he was changing himself for her.

Starting on cold mornings

This morning my truck barely wanted to start because it was -14 at my house not including windchill!  Cold temperatures can really take a toll on any kind of vehicle.
