Logan Christopher Tittle

I decided to start a new blog. It will be all about my son, Logan. If you know me at all or have read this blog (if you have read this blog you must know me) then you already know how important Logan is in my life.

I decided to write a separate blog about our experiences together. One reason is that this blog is so immature and really kind of ridiculous. But the main reason is that I learned that I really enjoy documenting experiences in Logan's life. I like looking back and reviewing them. I am also doing this because I know that there are others out there who care about Logan and like to know how he is doing. So with all that being said you can find the new blog by clicking here

Basically it is an e-journal for all to enjoy.

Sex & Baseball; Baseball & Sex

If you know me at all you know that I frequently use baseball analogies to describe all things dating and sex related. This is not unique by any means. I might say that I hit a homerun with a female; unfortunately I failed to go around the bases. I just hit the ball, pointed at it leaving the park (I really am kind of a pointer, sorry to all offended strippers), and then went and just sat on the bench as opposed to rounding the bases. I will often refer to girls as throwing me curve balls, or walking me to first base, or just lobbing me an easy one right down the middle where all I need to do is swing. Then there is the Grand Slam... never mind; you get the idea.

Anyway, something strange happened the other day while listening to sports talk radio. A local sports personality, David Locke, was talking about steroids and other performance enhancing drugs in baseball making the sport fake. And you know what he used as his analogy?!? SEX! He compared baseball to sex. He said baseball has become that platinum blonde with big fake boobs, fake nails, and a mini skirt, etc. You get the picture (if not see below). We have all seen this girl (I usually point at her). When she first enters the scene she in nice to gander at, but when you spend some time with her you come to realize that there is nothing really there, she’s not that interesting. It is nice to look at for a few minutes, but spend anytime with it and you will grow tired of how counterfeit she is and move on to something else. There is no substance there. This is what baseball has now become; a big blonde hussie!

Must GO 4

I know I said I was retiring these list, but I lied. This one has a few more that are serious and they really got this list going. I tried to add some more humorous stuff though in the end. Enjoy and feel free to add stuff in the comments.

  1. Not buckling up kids: How are people still not buckling up kinds in their cars. I am amazed every time I see this. This particular time I saw a large traveling type van. Inside it there were probably 4 or 5 kids just walking around; like they were in their damn living room. Maybe that is their living room, who knows. But one thing is for certain, if that vehicle is moving the kids should be buckled up. There is no excuse for it and is incredibly irresponsible. If you ever see a car driving with unbuckled children you can call1-800-887-5437. It is just a message, but you leave the date, time, location, and description of the car. I, unfortunately, have called this number several times and will continue to do so. The message states that they will attempt to contact the driver, but who knows what actually happens. Once I gave a woman a big ole “Thumbs Down” when she looked at me noticing her unbuckled infant in the front seat of her car. I bet she is still feeling that one.
  1. Lou Holtz AKA Grandpa Simpson: He is the worst announcer of any kind in the history of people talking on TV. ESPN probably has to place a tarp under for every game to keep all of his slobber in check. I used to love watching College Gameday. It was a good college football show, at least until last year when they brought in Grandpa Simpson. He actually was calling the Utah Utes bowl game this year. It looked like it was raining at the stadium, it turns out it was just slobber from Lou Holtz try to talk and say his “S’s”.
    Here is a small Lou Holtz sample. Actually it is an impression, but I hate to say that it is not much of an exaggeration.

  1. FDA/EPA: And all other government entities that are consistently failing to serve the people and continue to help make corporations money. I am tired of the FDA. They are useless. I heard, but I have not been able to verify this, that the FDA has no definition for the term “All Natural.” Who knows what the all natural Beef N’ Chedder from Arby’s is. Here is a link to an interview with a former employee of the FDA. He was the whistle blower who helped expose Vioxx, the prescription medicine that the FDA approved and cost thousands of people their lives. (Not super exciting, but interesting and frustrating).

    I also bring up the EPA specifically because of this recent article. The individual states are attempting to create higher emission standards, but they are blocked by the EPA? We are the worst (maybe 2nd worst) polluting country in the world! What the fuck does the EPA do all day? Get money from GM and a complimentary Hummer (both kinds)!
  1. Soda Filler Uppers- Where is the etiquette at the fountain machine. People are so inconsiderate while filling up their beverages. If you are eating at random shitty fast food place then why does one person end up filling up drinks for everyone? Plus you don’t have to fill it to the very brim of the cup. Fill up your drink and step to the side to put your lid on. There are people waiting for your fat ass to get out of the way. Please stop tapping the Coke button to squeeze every last ounce that you can into that 32 ounce cup. Look, I realize you like your fat ass and want to keep it that way, but I don’t think it will hurt to leave an ounce out of your cup, plus I am sure your fat ass will be back to for refills. I was just recently behind a guy filling up his drink and he stopped and started taking sips. What the hell, there are people waiting you cock. Fortunately, I punched him in the back of the head. Unfortunately it was so hard that his head became stuck in the machine causing ice to spill everywhere and preventing others from filling up their drinks. (Did not actually happen)
    Also, eating establishments that do not offer refills need to get it together. I rarely pay for my meals with cash. If I happen to need a refill I either need to go ask other patrons for change or charge $.50 on my debit card. Get with the program and just give people their refills (I am talking to you Pace’s Dive-In).
  1. Chip Demolition: If I can hear you approaching from twenty yards away because of your inability to eat a chip with some sort of control you may have a problem. If I am in another room watching a movie and I can hear you demolishing a damn bag of chips you have a problem. Please just stop and chew with your mouth closed, I am too nice to say anything, but one day I just might snap.

  2. Myspace Server: Come on myspace, get it together. Why can you not get a better server? They are constantly having problems. Also, do something about all the spam and people getting hacked. No one in their right mind sends out multiple bulletins advertising blow jobs or getting laid tonight. Can you not figure out a way to tackle this problem? It happens to people on a daily basis.

  3. Corner Advertisers: Have you noticed this new marketing trend that some jack ass’s must think actually works. They are placing some naïve teenager on the corner with a big ass sign and paying them to dance and wave. Two problems with this; first, have all the monkeys found better jobs? Second, these companies are occupying perfectly good corners while taking good corners from good and hard working ladies. They have owned the corners for year. Who the hell does D.A. (Dumb Ass) Wireless Company think they are taking these corners? In fact, why not just pay the hookers a little money to hold up the sign for them. It would probably be more effective. Just imagine, you could get a “date” and a new phone with one convenient stop. It is about as effective as the advertising style in the video below.

  4. Radio Commercials: One more on advertising. Have you heard the commercials on the radio that advertise how their radio station has the east commercials? What the hell?!?
  1. Stupid Dance Movies: Are there really that many people into competitive street dancing that movie companies make sequel after sequel? Why are they always dancing in the rain? And not just a little drizzle my nizzle. They are dancing in the pouring rain, water splashing all over the dancers. I guess they are tougher than I thought, they dance rain or shine! I bet they would dance during the second coming of Jesus, and I bet Jesus would be impressed with their dancing skills and try to join in, but his approach would be different, but someone (probably a blonde rebellious girl) would recognize his raw and unique method. He would take Jesus aside and tell him “No matter what you do, you just dance, dance out what is inside of you!”
    Here is a trailer for the latest dance off movie. It is called "Step up 2: The Streets Mother Fuckers!" Watch it without laughing, I dare you!
