Boxers or Briefs?
Really? It seems to consume the thoughts of so many people. Several years back I can remember watching a presidential debate on MTV (ok, probably not the best choice to get potential presidential views, but I was watching it) and one of the....the....I don't know, V Jays? I'm not sure, but one of the interviewers asked one of the presidential candidates, "Boxers or Briefs?" It made me start to think...what does that really tell you about a person To me...and you can decide which I prefer....one is for someone who is a "free" spirit...doesn't like to be confined...likes to let it all "hang out" and one is for someone who likes to color inside the lines, likes a sense of "support" and likes "everything in order." It's hard to judge a book by it's cover. What you see on the outside is not always what the pages within hold. With that being said...YOU'RE WRONG. I'm a briefs guy. When I was a kid, I can remember being in Kindergarten or 1st grade...coloring. I always, first, carefully outlined with the crayon of choice in a dark fashion...giving some good pressure to the crayon, then filling in that section with a lighter hue of the same color...accomplished by applying less pressure. If I went outside of the lines...FAILURE...crinkle it up and start over. It had to be perfect! I can remember Mrs. Branch (***HEY SHOUT OUT to my Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Branch...if you're still alive...eww...she was kinda old...back then..hmmm....I wonder if she IS still alive?) anyway, I can remember her always looking at me, really confused, wondering why I kept coming back for another template sheet. I guess I can now blame her for some of my O.C.D. behaviors. If she had been paying attention better, she would have seen the early stages of a Type A personality developing and she could have nipped it in the bud. Way to go Mrs. Branch. (For the record...if she is dead, her estate owes me for therapy bills). I guess I have always been my biggest critic. I knew that "I" couldn't be perfect, but my coloring could! I could give everyone the impression that I was a wiz kid...that on first try...it was PERFECTION!!! So, although I have gone off on a tangent....I ALWAYS colored inside the lines. Support. There are two kinds of people in this world...the ones that do it all alone and get all the glory....and the ones that do it with a team (keep in mind that a team can be 100 or it can be 2...but it's not alone...it's a team) and share the glory. I like the team work approach. To me, it's the only really option. Sure if you work alone and win....whoo hoo...it's great and you get ALL the glory. But, if you work alone, and you lose.....there is NO ONE to blame but YOU. I always try to go into a situation with a positive attitude, thinking that I am going to WIN, but....come on, you have to be realistic...the chances of winning EVERY TIME are not in your favor. Be smart....try not to be too greedy and work in a team...that way you WIN together, but you also LOSE together. Remembering, you never want to go in thinking that you're going to lose...but...it could happen. I like to be SAFE....never SORRY. Do your best and your best it will be...you will never have to be ashamed if you give it your all...that's all you can do!!!! Everything in order. OK, so while I like "everything in order", I am 43 years old and have no "WILL". Stupid. I know. So when we talk about "everything in order" let's go back to the original subject of "Boxers or Briefs" and not some squirrelly analogy of what I'm trying to say. So I've already told you that I wear briefs...although at first glance of my characteristics of those that do...you may not have thought that. Think about it. Briefs are to men as Bras are to women....helps keep everything under control. What goes through your mind when you're at the gym, or walking down the street, or shopping at the mall and there's a woman with these HUGE boobs and she's wearing a tank top with no bra. (To me, Boxers are to men and Tank Tops are to women.) It's gross...she's all flopping around with these "udders" swingin' back and forth. You look at her and say, "Really? Did I really need to see all that? Damn, she needs to control her junk." And with that...I wear briefs. (now if she has small boobs, it's OK...but we're not talking about those women...are we...get it? wink wink) No one really needs to see all my junk...on display...Lord. If want to see all my junk, in all it's glory, you're gonna need to read the book. Don't judge this book by the cover...you may miss out....there's lots within these pages that you have NO IDEA ABOUT. Currently, this book is checked out....sorry...you won't be able to get beyond the cover...well except for access through conversation. Ask me...ask me anything...you may be surprised with the answer you get. Remember I may fit the characteristics of Boxers, but I'm a Briefs guy...so are many of my views. Until next time....play it safe....and why don't we all just NOT judge....period.
