SUITS SUITS SUITS

Mr. funnn loves California.  How could anyone not love this place?  Mountains check, ocean check, desert check, sunshine check, snow check blah blah fuck. Who wants to read this shit?  I am going to apologize for the intro to this post. Sorry.
Anyways it's easy for anyone to love California, so I will speak about some of the negatives of my trip to the west coast. Well to tell you the truth I only have one complaint.  Why is it that the businessman ruined the suit.  I understand that for business you want your employees to look decent, but every bar that I stepped my happy ass into businessmen and their terrible sense of fashion had these god awful suits on, and wouldn't let me order my precious PBR's. And I'm a man who loves his suits, but because these assholes have power jobs and need to look good they go out and pick out some dreadful ensemble.  I am ashamed to wear a suit in the presents of these dickheads.  I, Mr. funnn want anyone who feels this way to stand up and make the suit respectable again. If you want to look good wear what suits you please.

With the Needle and the Damage Done

Alright kids, Mr.funnn blew it......big time. I really wanted to perform to my full capacity. I knew the set had practiced all week, I mean it wasn't like I was fully prepared I just chocked plain and simple. But I have taken away only good thing from the travesty on Friday night.  I know I need to keep the computer closer to me, try to keep the setup compact.  THE MUSIC CANNOT STOP FOR ANY REASON!!! As far as keeping my cool goes...........well I will have to figure that out myself.  I know that I had a lot of funnn, but that's to be expected right?  That was just the first show and I can't wait to get back out there.  Its only a matter of time, and we can only go up from here.  Planet of the Rapes shall rise and maybe be good someday. We will have to wait and see.

3 mile walk





Hey kids guess what?  Mr funnn is happy, not super happy.  The slow drawn out kind of happy; the king that you know won't last but you drink it in anyways.  I started my day by cleaning up the past weeks messes caused by laziness, then I strapped on the cans and went for a long walk.  It was nice a little hot, but the constant passing by of cars, trucks, and buses created a false breeze which helped me to keep going.  My time down here is at it's end, and I don't know if I'll ever make it back.  I hope so, although this trip had more lows than highs.  I will always miss this place.  From my move back to Philo I know that once you leave a place it becomes a let down for every move you make you change and so does the place your leaving. So don't let the nostalgia fool you. Just be sure to enjoy life while your there.

bumping birthday uglys


Hey kids it's been awhile huh?  Well a lot has happened since my last post and I'm sorry, but I have been busy.  On the eve of our presidential election I feel I must endorse a candidate.   I usually don't side with the two major political parties, but I back Barack Obama for the simple reason that he could switch things up.  Things in this country haven't really changed for a long time, because they haven't needed to; we have had a pretty good run for as long as I can remember.  Now things are getting shitty and a fresh vision could be what we need. On the other hand life could get a lot worse, but ya know that's something that I personally would embrace.  I have heard the candidates seen the debates, and think that Obama is pushing a socialist agenda that with this economy could work.  I also think he would strengthen our international ties, and focus on the things that matter most to most people; like health care, employment, and education. Plus he is well read and didn't serve in any of our armed forces.  Not that there is anything wrong with serving but I don't think an other macho asshole hell bent on controlling the world helps the fine folks of the United States of America. And that's all I have to say about that.
Mr Funnn has turned 25 years old, who woulda thunk it?  Anyways I had a very strange birthday, for those who don't know I was borne on Halloween, and I wouldn't have it any other way.  But this particular Halloween was extraordinary, because I was working in Louisiana and I was alone.  I started drinking Markers Mark, and got a good drunk on then preceded to buy some hallucinogens.  Then went to my favorite watering hole in Baton Rouge, The Station which luck would have was holding a costume block party. My only regret is not having a camera.  Although a camera would not have shone what I saw that night.  Try to imagine tripping in a wide open space with a whiskey drink in your hand at all times while being surrounded by about 500 other drunks dressed as everything from Gene Simmons in full KISS drag to about 25 different sexy Sarah Palins.  There were slutty referees and people that came as their facebook pages.  Seeing life sized bumble bees and the Big Lebowski was just what I needed to get me to 25.  The whole night was a success from what I can remember and I would happily do it all over.  Being alone wondering though a world of drunken characters, and really not giving a fuck about myself and just absorbing everything in was about the most calming and refreshing experience that I could have had to bring me to another year.  And has made me excited for what next.

Do what you gotta do to get out there


I have worked the same job for nearly three years, and its time for a change. In this line of work I am required to travel and be away from home for weeks at a time for about seven months a year. This job like every job has its peaks and valleys, and I have found that it has more peaks than valleys which any sane person would keep the gig as long as they could. The traveling is the greatest thing about the and probably one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I have seen both coast's and the gulf of Mexico. I have spent a considerable amount of time in the top seven populated cities in the U.S. I have met people that have changed my life that if not for this job I wouldn't have ever heard their perspective.
The one greatest thing that i have learned from this job is not that the pressure within a contained vessel controls the temperature at which water boils, or that liquid nitrogen pushed through a heat exchanger is the best way to dehydrate a chiller that has blown its copper tubes. Its the simple fact that home is not always where the heart is. I moved back to east central Illinois about a year ago, because I felt that I missed my family and friends. I moved into a small two bedroom apartment with a good friend, and was ready to rejoin my old life, old friends, and same distant family. But what I what I found was that the same reasons I moved in the first place where simpler and more visible. It hasn't taken me this long to figure out that I simply don't belong here. Now I don't mean any disrespect to the fine people that have holed up here to start and finish their lives, but I cannot.
The United States is one hell of a country it has everything that if you look hard enough in any city you will find great sites, amazing people, and crazy things to do; things that if you grew up in a small town would change your whole outlook. An outlook I would have never got without this job, and wish to continue on my own terms. That's right kids my own way without having to come home, because the jobs finished. If I like where I'm at I can stay and explore and adventure more. I can learn and grow with the United States and hopefully soon the entire world will be my classroom, and there will never be a shortage of subject matter. The classmates will change daily, and my ideas, morals, beliefs, loves, hates, and knowledge will be everlasting.

YOU'LL HATE YOUR LIFE

                  
well kids, recently i have been hearing a lot about marriage, engagements, and just relationships in general;  and i gotta admit it pisses me right off.  now i'm not trying to discourage anyone pondering the idea, but to young kids fresh out of college just starting your careers please please oh yes baby please ponder it longer than 3 years. i don't know the exact divorce rate but last i heard it was somewhere around fifty percent. why do it to yourselves? why get married today, what's three more years? ya know, suffer through the bad times that come with longevity. if the good times still out weigh the bad then i like the chances. oh what a world that would be, saving all the money from the wedding and then all the money from the divorce. with those who argue that insurance and taxes are lower as a married couple then fuck you, that shouldn't be a deciding factor in the whole process a blind man could see that this is done with the wrong intentions and almost a divorce waiting to happen, but best of luck. because after all i know dick and "i have done unforgivable things"

mr funnn speaks


well get sexy kids, mrfunnn has made his long awaited arrival to the blogosphere.  his blog could cover, but won't be limited to music reviews, random rants, religion, comedy(note these last two are very closely related), sex, violence, and every type of funnn imaginable.  a little about the author; mrfunn is the genuine, loving, honest, asshole that people generally don't notice, so overall he's the worst kind of person.
