Rumors

A lot of crazy information is spread through little things called rumors. The funny thing about rumors is that you can't be sure whether they're true or not. A lot of times you hope some rumors are false, but a lot of times you also hope other rumors are true. It's all very confusing. For example... I hope the rumor that Carrie Strug is now a man is false, while I hope the rumor that there are no cats in America is true. However... I'm pretty sure the one about cats isn't true. Jeremiah, Dwight, and I hit one in Jeremiah's car the other day. Both right tires. Bump, bump. Oops. It wasn't our fault. I can't help it if a cat with a brain runs underneath two large tires (well... I guess it didn't really have a choice with the second tire. But he could have avoided the first). I mean, we could have swerved and hit the oncoming car in the other lane, but I just don't feel like a little tan colored, cuddly cat with some white stripes and a nice, soft fluffy tale and a collar that said "Our Baby: Missy" was worth that. I bet it was trying to catch and kill some poor defenseless animal anyway, so technically we saved a life. Cat for a chipmunk? I'd call that a good trade.

Anyway... back to rumors. I'm thinking about starting a few of my own. I think they're pretty good. Here's a few of them.

"I heard that Janet Jackson is taking a trip to London for Christmas... and that she's an alien."
- I'm pretty sure everyone will believe this one because we all know how much the Jacksons love London... and we all know they're probably aliens.

"Dragons actually still exist. They're just really shy."
- This one is most likely true, so I don't feel bad about spreading it. Actually... it's probably important that people know this for reasons of personal safety.

"Tyra Banks is actually a parrot."
- Yeah. I'm not sure this one will take off.

So, thats about it. I remind you that rumors are typically a bad thing and shouldn't be spread... unless they're helpful rumors like mine about dragons. Seriously, people, be careful.

Keeping you safe and informed with useless news/speculation,

Oh...

And I guess I was "leaving, leaving, leaving" in the post before the post I just made. Make sense? No. Oh well.

I'm gonna make a purchase...

... and it's gonna be a trampoline.

Yeah. I found one for $40 on Craigslist, and I just don't think I can pass that up. It's not everyday you find a cheap tramp, and I really want to bring back some memories from my younger years when I would jump for hours and hours. Plus... I can't think of a more fun way to get in some physical activity. I could also use some improvement in my acrobatic skills if I'm actually gonna try my hand at the New York entertainment scene (Yes, that's right... I'm thinking about moving to NYC or Nashville within the next year or so to pursue my dreams of singing/ performing), and I feel like this would be a great step towards that training.

Having a trampoline behind the house that I, Dwight Castle, and John Lambuth live could be disastrous, but it's definitely worth the risk. However, I don't think Dwight has medical insurance, so we might not let him use it. Just kidding... maybe. I can only imagine what our neighbors will think when they see guys in their 20's jumping on a trampoline. Not that our perceived image to the neighborhood matters too much to us. In the first week we lived here I filmed a portion of a music video in the driveway with me and 5 of my friends dressed in full gangster attire as residents of our street drove by and wondered how their neighborhood had gone downhill so quickly. We also spent an afternoon doing stupid human tricks in the front yard. Yeah. I'm sure they think we're a bit off.

So, thats it. My thoughts behind making a purchase that I may or may not regret. I'll try to keep you updated, and Jeremiah and I both hope to start being more consistent in our blogging. The previous post before this one was made in May. Thats pretty sad. We'll do better. Well... I'll try. I can't promise anything for Jer. He's a bit occupied with wedding plans at the moment, so he might be MIA for a while. Yes, thats right. If you haven't heard, Jeremiah Wade Sizemore is getting married.

Until next time... hopefully not next year,
Robby
