Well, not to upset you Dave as I know it has many uses, but the only people that I followed at the time I was using Twitter used it as more of a complaint / vent / I'm so bored / look who I'm sleeping with type social media outlet. That of course was my first experience and is the only reason why I made that comment.

If things were different I'd gladly use it again.

Well, I guess I'd say your Twitter experience is all in who you follow. You just weren't following the right people.

Don't worry, I'm not taking it personally.

Yeah, I really wasn't. One guy literally updated his status every 5 minutes because he was either too bored or couldn't decide what to wear to a club. Oh, and to let us know what he was watching on TV. I couldn't take it anymore so I un-followed him, and then I just got bored so I deleted my account lol.

And BTW, stop kicking my butt at WWF!

I do hate twitter but I am using to follow some people. Kaba turned me on to it so I gave it another looksee.

I follow some athletes (ochocinco, who is pretty funny) and some video game companies that I am interested in. Otherwise it's not too exciting.

I missed a direct blast to my face, but still got it in my eyes, nose, mouth, lungs...everywhere. I was in a mini van when I sprayed it. Luckily we were parked, because the driver was out of the car before the spray was even finished. He knew....he knew.

Boot Camp, the gas chamber. Like a big room full of mace. My God! It burned whatever it touched. We had **** coming out of about every orifice you can think of! They made us take off our gas masks and sing the first line of the Marine corps Hymn. "From the Halls of-----Ahhhh!!!..........
