HyperConnected to Twitter

I decided to take up a request of my pal Todd. He requested that several people follow him in signing up with Twitter for at least a 2 week period. I noticed some of the people he asked to do it and honestly I thought that most of them would not and therefore that makes the request more appealing. It at least gives me the illusion that I'm not jumping on a bandwagon, when indeed I am.

Anyway, I will be twittering for a while, just to see if I like it...

you can follow me at www.twitter.com/jfullen

For those of you in the dark, Twitter is a news feed that I update whenever I want via web or txt that answers the question "What are you doing?" so that anyone that cares can be updated of my status.

Even when I explain it, it seems weird. O well! here goes...

Random

Don't know the youth group. Don't know any of the people. Just thought is was interesting and I really like this song.

Green with Envy?

Okay. I'm gonna say it. This glorified golfcart has some kind of appeal to me.

Okay. There. I said it. Are you happy?

Signed- the owner of 2 - 4X4 SUVs.

So what do you think of the car?

Signs of the Times

I went to the hospital tonight to see a friend and as I am leaving I see one the guys on the left approaching and to my dismay as I am driving away I notice his flashing strobe light comes on and he proceeds to. . . you guessed it, pull me over! I got stopped by policeman on a segway.

Can you believe it? I felt like I was in a dream and it was the year 2095 and I was being stopped for still driving a car that used petroluem instead of the much more eco-friendly fusion car.

And why did he stop me?

Just to tell me how to get out of the parking lot. "It's dark and it's hard to see the arrows to exit." he said. And just for clarification, it was only a security guard, but certainly looked like a cop.

Ready? Set. Okay, GO!

Thanks to my friend Jessica, I can share with you some fun moments from LifePoint! Thanks Jess for the link!

Here we go again!

Which one is the real one?

I'm Not Above A Middle School Game

Okay, I'll play the game. (Although this feels like something that should be done as a 12 year old at a slumber party at 3:00am when even the sound of the wall clock ticking is simply hilarious.)

7 Random:

1) I killed a squirrel in my backyard one day - by throwing a battery at it. Duracell, size D. It crawled at a rapid pace over to the small creek by our house and simply dropped its head in the water and drowned himself. I felt like I was the most evil person alive. I thought for sure I would miss him. I didn't. I had better aim than I thought.

2) I witnessed a car wreck one night, from start to finish. I saw an 18 wheeler enter the intersection in front of me. I was in the left turn lane and both lights turned green. I couldn't go -the truck was in the way, but in my rear view mirror I saw a car coming and not slowing down and that car had a green light. I told my dad who was with me, "Oh no dad, there's about to be a bad wreck!" Seconds later this car runs right into the cab of the truck at about 50mph. It was loud, very close and sad. The lady was on her way home from the hospital with her 80 year old father. Everyone, was okay in the end. But it was scarey.

3) Random experience both job and non-job related that I have been taught over the years.

• welding


• plumbing


• cabinet-making


• cattle raising


• chicken farming (60K chickens for 4 years in college) (That's some smart chickens!)


• installing ceramic tile - (Lance Burch taught me)


• tractor, front-end loader, and manlift operator


• bioreactors - (microbes for wastewater treatment plants)


• sound system set-up/repair


• computer repair and networking


• limited graphic & web design


• archery


• pastoring/preaching*


• cross-stitch

*This of course has the greatest gravity on my life.

4) I've never had an alcoholic beverage. Ever.

5) I was President of the German Club while in high school only so I could get a free meal at the local German restaurant. I didn't know any German then and still don't now.



6) One of my eyes is two different colors.










7) I once walked from the playground at my elementary school all the way to the cafeteria with both of my middle fingers screaming the "old man" to any who saw. My principal saw me out of his office window. It's possibly the longest flip-off in the history of elementary flip-offs.

Status Update

Status update: Attempting to find something to wear. Clothes that are remotely as cool as Robert Conn or Adam Workman is impossible to find in my closet. No hope in site. I must settle for the normal frumpy Jason clothes. Sigh.

Double Trouble

Lance and I were coming back from mountain biking on Wednesday night. We pulled up to an intersection and found a car disabled. A man in a tie was on his cell phone, presumably calling help. While Lance was on the phone, I decided to ask the man if he needed help. He said no and told me his girlfriend was on her way. I took him at his word and proceeded to go around him. Next, he says, "Do you mind helping me get out of the intersection and over to the other side of the road." I complied and ran the jeep up on the grass over a curb and jumped out to help push the car. When I got to him, I saw another car in front of the stalled car and I heard a strange sound. It was a car trying to start! While I was walking to help push the car, another car had gone in front of the stalled car and stalled! Now I can't push the stalled car because there is a stalled car in front of the stalled car! Who'd ever guessed it? It was pretty funny actually. The car finally started and then we pushed the 1st stalled car to safety.
