I'll probably sleep all day on my birthday.

Mix,

I deal with people every day on the phone, email, at the stores, etc.

When I'm home, I like to kick back and relax by myself, and with the animals who frequent the place. Does it make me a bad fellow, because I no longer enjoy social interaction on a regular basis?

I don't have to be positive all the time. In order to have good, you also need to have bad.

And BTW, the last good thing that happened, was I found a nice lemon pepper rotisserie chicken at the store this morning, along with some tilapia filets, which I will cook this evening :)

Never mind, never mind. I'm getting a headache trying to explain it to someone who won't get it 20 years from now.

Once again you didn't read my post earlier. I've never collected a disability check in my life. Tell me when so you have time to work on your software since it seems you're always posting on here?:D

No Steve it's just that Rick rubs me and others on here the wrong way. When have you seen him make a positive post on here lately? Usually it's something negative when someone is trying to stay positive. It's OK for us to disagree with people on here sometimes but not all the time.

It must just be you. Because I dont have a problem with Rick. Now, go back to learning how to take pictures, and charging your friends for your parties.

Sorry I shouldn't have included anyone and kept it on me my feelings about Rick.

Now with that said like I said to get in to this party it's free. If anybody here wants to show up they are welcome. What I find unbelievable is that some of you have never heard of a DJ promoting their own party and charging admission to the party. I went to one this past Saturday that a friend of mine was promoting. It was by paid ticket only. You couldn't pay at the door. It was $20.00 a ticket and 500 + people showed up to the party.

He paid off the people who helped him with the party including security. It was a great party! The one bad thing that happened was when there was 150-200 people on the dance floor and a circuit breaker clipped shutting all the music and lights off. The problem was quickly solved but that was a disaster with that many people on the dance floor sweating up a storm. Here are some pictures from the party. It was an all white affair for the 30 and over crowd.

Gotta hand it to you Mix, I don't know who took the pics as yours are usually out of focus but that is not about what I am congratulating you. I am referring to the mix of shots, the DJ, the gear, Dance Floor, several vantage points and yes some people dancing. That is good! I realize it was not your party. I really enjoy photographic reviews like this one.

I just hope for my party I get a decent crowd. Of course I can't get 500 + people because the place isn't that big. I hope to get 40 to 50 people. If I get more then that's great.

You know what I say to people that always complain? I say if it's that bad then commit suicide. They say it's not that bad. Then I say to them shut the F up!

This is an awful thing to say to anyone .. even moreso knowing what we know about your past .. and the struggles you have dealt with in life.

I say such things so they can stop complaining all the time and look at what is good in life. I was just sitting next to someone tonight that has plenty of health difficulties including their cancer has come back. They weren't sitting there complaining but being thankful to still be alive.
 
Happy Birthday, Mix.

Celebrate it however, and with whomever you please.

I understand the aim but you must find some way to say this other than to go commit suicide. That's awful and uncalled for in any and all situations. People do get down and out and helping them highlight the positives is almost always good .. but advising them that if things are so bad, to go commit suicide is totally uncalled for, regardless of whom you may be speaking to (friend, family, stranger or other).

Ok. I just hate people who complain all the time. Sometimes is cool but not all the time.
 
Mix,

If I ever became stupid enough to commit suicide, I'd come and get you first, and bring you with me :)

Besides, it would take all the fun out of watching the other morons jump off the bridge here, and watch their bodies float down the river. So, there is some good in life.

I call it entertainment :cheers:

Hey Pro something else I just thought of. He said some years are better then others. That's sad he thinks that way. So he looks at a whole entire year as being bad. No wonder he doesn't have many friends if any at all. With that attitude who would want to be around him. I say only people who think the same way he does. So they can both be miserable together and compare which one is having a more miserable year.

Now you hate .. aren't you just a pleasant fella. There are people of all types - if you don't like what someone does, then move along. That's certainly better than advising one to commit suicide.

As has been outlined to you already, we all have goods and bads in our lives. The bads are what makes the goods good. Without that, you would have nothing to measure against.

I get that there's good and bad in all our lives. Some people only know how to focus on the bad and not the good. We all can find something to focus on in our lives every day that is bad. I just choose not to be one of those people. Sure I have bad days. I had a bad night last night playing in the bar. Just wasn't one of my best nights playing. Most people didn't notice at all. To them I did a good job.

Tonight is my birthday party and I'd better play better. I've learned to not be too hard on myself. We all have good and bad days at DJing. Just one of those nights.
 
If it's YOUR birthday, shouldn't your partner be the one playing? You should be free to play around. :)

Probably a bit of both -- although I do take a story from my past, and embellish it.

I remember catching this catfish in Rookery Bay, which is south of Naples Bay. He was a few feet long, weighed pretty heavy. I let him go -- but now the story goes he was 7 feet long, and weighed in at 200 pounds or so.

That's how you create a story, poem or song.

Do you think I would have written all my software and music while I was sober? It doesn't work that way. You come up with the ideas when yer toasted, and then fulfill them in the morning (or night in my case).


I don't believe Mix gets the whole humor thing as well. I guess I'm supposed to be like him, or I'm a POS.
