Scott Friday (And Starting Tomorrow Amanda too)

scotamn.jpg

So Scott friday? Why? Well tomorrow is the big day, Scott and Amanda shall be wed... so no doubt thats inline for a scott/amanda friday. Hmm my Amanda stories are limited so well just for the fact that tomorrow yall shall be one, all stories for either become one! Right?

Anyway, ol scott. Hmm we've already seen Sara (no H) friday, who I assumed was his wife originally (obviously not since he's getting married this weekeend). But after that was cleared up, and I realized who scott was (at first I thought he was blowing me off all the time...) I realized he's a pretty cool guy. Pretty good on the guitar (what about that Psubverse Rhyscology) and the drums (wait those drums are still here in my house!) And a good artist too!

He'll probably tell ya what he's thinking, (then Sara will hit him... and he'll say WHAT? its true!) But hey then theres no question about how things are ... right? Up for the adventure to whenever that may come, not afraid to get a little dirty... ol scott he's alright, and since he was all right, now amanda can fill in that left part... thats what its about Balnce right? Congrats.... And may Jehovah bless your marriage. (And all the little Amotts or Scandas...)

Creative WRiting Thursday (Interactive/Misconstrued/Creative) Edition

OK, so a scary thing was agreed upon yesterday (actually two). The need of a "We are the world" type song be produced for this whole, Misconstrued Album, and a Misconstrued Failed Benefit Festival. I had dreamed up both thought, but dismissed it. Yet when Javann and Jon also proposed the same idea I had no choice but to accept it as genius (because 2 wrongs make a right? hold on????)

Anyway, I feel the Misconstrued community should create this song. Add your own line to the song, we will create the song from the entries, In the near future we'll let you know when the official recording shall take place at "Its out there" Studios.

I will get things started off

Quote Wednesday..

"I am 100% a ladies man"
-Uju

(This is misconstrued thoughts for a reason).
Add your quotes!

And in other news...
Pictures and stories still come in of NEABOCWPTYHKD

bevcereal.jpg

Malory said instead she had to start

well, i had a"nebcbybyhtwcgtnebcwptyhk"(national eat a bowl of cereal by yourself because you have to work and cant go to 'national eat a bowl of cereal with people that you hardly know day') day.

So NEABOCWPTYHKD had many participants, from around the world, strange as it sounds. And many voiced the disappointment of its end. The people have spoken, we shall see where this leads.

On a musical note, we still need artist (We already have 8 (impresive)), so send me your recordings, for our first compilation CD. We need some gals to send in there recordings, and I know that there are some musically talented gals out there!

A compilation...

Misconstrued Thoughts are all about creative thinking, and creative creation! As such we would like to create the first Musical Compilation of the Misconstrued Viewers.

To create this moment, Psubverse Rhyscology has released another exciting song. (OK, really we had never released a song... just performed). However we headed over to the "Its Out There" Studio, to record something never heard before by anyones ears. This new sound they created is a combination of emo and Experimental Techno. Strange as it sounds, the creation is Techemo (an electonic form of emo which Psubverse leans toward a nightmarish sound).

Today is the official release of this song.

Psubverse Rhyscology - Feeling the Words

Download it and enjoy it with a pair of headphones (the only way to grasp its depth). Feel free to leave a review (good or bad (we are psubverse rhyscology afterall, we can take anything and turn it into a compliment)) (We are so popular that comics are made about us!)

So send us your song you would like to be added to the compilation. All songs must be original tunes by you or a group you are associated with. We will post the artist that are to be featured, please also send a picture, and short bio. Please send in MP3 format.

Now that was a bad idea...

web_page_document001001.jpeg
(Picture "borrowed" from Aaron, thanks man)

Well two words sum up the whole NEABOCSWPYHK day. BAD IDEA. At least as a group this is a bad idea... let me explain...

1) To many cereal choices lead to the excessive consumption of cereal
2) Milk in large quantities causes Nausea... Kyle (who drank way to much milk) lay in anguish most the night
3) Lots of cereal means lots of mess to pick up
4) Lots of sugary cereals can produce the same hyper effect in some adults found in small children
5) Man I had so many dirty dishes!
6) Sooner or later, there is going to be a Cereal Eating Contest
7)Yes Someone will pour water in your milk prouding Skimmier Milk from Sklm Milk

Due to these reasons NEABOCSWPYHK day has been brought to an end. In its 2 year jaunt, it did its best at turning the world upside down, but in the end it just turned our stomachs.

See you next year at National Eat a Bowl Of Ice Cream Simultaneously With People You Hardly Know Day : NEABOICSWPYHK for short

February 22, 2004

It comes to an end...

To help everyone come off there sugar high from EAt a bowl sim... ah whatever it was called... We have posted a Video for Everyones viewing Pleasure.

Kyle its Friday...

DSCN0058 (Small).JPG


This week I heard good news, Kyle was headed up to NewYork for an assignment at Bethel... Since he'll be headed out soon I figured well Definitly it is time... time for Kyle Friday

Kyles one of those guys you meet and just say... "Hey he's a super nice guy" And then you say... "Wow he can play drums good" Well unless you've never seen him play drums. Then you might just say "He's pretty quiet"... But then you get to know him and you say "Hey Kyle, he's cool he'll laugh n smile alot when you have a crazy idea and he's up for it". But then you'll also realize more about Kyle and say... "You know Kyle is a spirtually minded guy with his head on strait". Then you'll get in a car in California with him and he'll say "Hey lets see how many cars we can pass in 1 minute, bet you cant pass 50" Then you'll say "What?" Then he'll say "Awesome"

Thats Kyle, add your stories about Kyle or your own "And then you will say"

Creative Writing Thursday... Again?

Add your creative writing for this week.

The Power of.... Whay was I saying?

I had this idea just the other day
Write about something someone else had to say

They said how it was they never would follow through
With all the many things that they would start to do

I thought it odd, for I finish what i dream
But for her it odd I believe this would seem

I was told one day it would be true
I would be incomplete in all I do

I said "But why? I always complete...
Every procesion of thought I ever meet"

"The power of influence of those around"
She stated that thoughts so many abound

She thought her influence would change my way
I certainly never thought inconclusive I would be

I said That shall never happen...

ah... i'm tired of writing this poem.

Wacked Fact Wednesday ... Cereal Edition

crunch.gif

Well if you havent heard... This Saturday is National Eat A Bowl Of Cereal Simulataneously With People You Hardly Know day (NEABOCSWPYHK for short).

This weekend namely Saturday I think we shall assemble some folks together for this great annual event. But you ask ....

"Jeremy ol chap... why do this seems a bit ridicolous to me..."

Well my response.... why exactly are you talking with a british accent... although it is cool none the less.

But anyways, All start thinking of your favorite cereal for NEABOCSWPYHK, and be sure to send us your pictures of you enjoying your favorite cereal.

I cant say Captain Crunch is my favorite cereal, but I do like it...(unless you eat to much and get that sandpaper effect on the roof of your mouth)... but it is high quality stuff.

But for the wacked fact for wednesday. Did you know Captain Crunch was also the name of a early hacker of the phone systems? His "handle" came from the inclusion of a plastic whistle in Captain Crunch cereal in the 1960's which could, with proper manipulation, send out a control tone that would affect telephone systems of the time. Thus he would get free long distance phone calls, well until he recieved 2 years of prison.... where those free phone calls turned into just one free phone call.

Anyway, add your cereal stories (and your favorite) to this wacked fact wednesday cereal edition.

Remember the Alamo... Why?

IMG_5058 (Small).JPG

A quick trip over to San Antonio was very educational I must say. San Antonio is one of the prettier cities I've ever seen. The river walk is amazing, well groomed, almost European in nature (ok it is actually Spanish...) but anyways. The Alamo...

The Alamo was the reason that San Antonio was created. The National Park Service keeps up several missions that led to the Alamo (actually Mission San Antonio). Its actually several factors that made San Antonio the city it is.

First you have the Spanish coming to place their foot on New World soil. Therefore, they would create missions to teach the locals Catholicism, and the European Spanish life. In Spain life was good so it was hard to get people to man these missions, leaving the good life in Spain for a questionable life in the New World (different than the English). The draw would be, when you came to the new world, you would be as an aristocrat, having people work for you.

This failed miserably in many parts of the US (California, Florida, New Mexico). Yet in Texas (San Antonio) it worked. Why?... enter Indian history.

When the Cheyenne Indians obtained Horses, they then could follow the Buffalo, which led them to the Plains, where they ran out the Apache, the Apache headed south, into Texas. (All part of the shift of Indians westward by the English) The local Indians, which were small tribes, needed protection. The only place protection was to be found was in the city of San Antonio. However, if the Indians entered these cities not knowing the Spanish way of life... basically slavery was there future. Yet in the missions they could work as it were as slaves, learn Catholicism, Spanish, and the European culture.... then enter the city as a normal citizen.

So this is what led to the growth of what’s San Antonio. More than you ever wanted to know… but one thing is for certain… you should visit San Antonio… Thank you for visiting this educational day at Misconstrued


...oh wait I forgot (to talk about) the Alamo! Oh well.

Thoughts In an Art Museum

IMG_4961 (Small).JPG

The Beauty of Art, is well anything goes... along as it was created with true inspiration. The most abstract piece, while some may look at and simply say... that is easy to do... to the creator has deeper meaning. I do believe such creators do not deserve the same credit as those with true talent, but it still is credited as art!

When I had art classes in college, I mocked this, as I would wad up paper, after I wrote the first amendment on it... then explain how it represented the turmoil of american society... and the one torn off piece represented the small splinter groups who tried to create change... yet can not do this (stuff like that) But the point was, any one with creativity can create art... and the greats deserve much more credit! (Surrealist, Photo-realist, Pointilist, etc...)

I never understood giving any credit until I noticed the music I listen too. I have little music ability, but some artistic ability. My lack of music ability I believe makes it easier to understand those random bands which play with spirit and soul, but possibly is hard for most to get (aka Bright Eyes, Dismemberment Plan, Wesley Willis etc). Yet these are just like those modern artist.... lacking maybe singing and music talent on the scale of Bethoven, Radiohead (yes... i just compared the two... let the comments flow). So it is a differnt level of appreciation, but all are artist.

But another great thing about an art museum, is there is much art just in the building (ok... not the art... the building). The combination of the buidling and light with the art and people create a great environment to create your own phtographic art! Of course several people looked at me strange as a I stand behind the art, taking a picture of the wall. But those are the ones probably shaking there head at much the other art... the key to all of it is looking beyond the obvious... the obvious is important, but only in its interaction with the depth!

So anyways, the Houston Museum of FINE ART is a fine place to go. Check it out, a nice base collection, just for your edification.

Javanne with NO e Friday

heyladies.jpeg

We all knew it was coming Chunky (Wimpy) Bear Friday. Actually if anyone is to be credited with misconstruedthoughts... it would be he. In fact he was the one who first taught me my first bits of html. Helped me learn how to get "online" and look where we are a year and a half later (presently houston, but that has nothing to do with anything).

But good ol Javann. No few others have the capability to really tell you what they think strait up, holding back nothing. Good and bad it is. But grown used to it I have. A lover of the outdoors... oh wait no... he's not genetically dispositioned for that... (just for beating people down (glad I'm "squirrelly" and in houston) No but really Javann is a good friend... actually quiet considerate ... then completly not....an odd combination. But thats Javann. Unique in thought and ready for some deep off thought statements... it always keeps the conversation interesting (and highly opinionated).

But since I "feed him more than his family" as he says... well he's like a son (oh lord... what did I just say... boy its getting late). Lets replace son with a good friend..... and he's artistic to (and has grown to appreciate the fine art of odd music).

Anyways... has this been random? Yes... My goal to memic a normal converstation with him... Well at least when we are talking. (oh and he's big on grammer and speeling too... so i've not done any spell check just to give hime somehting to talk (or complain) about.

But the interetsing thing is... even if Javann says what he thinks... its not an opinion of you, he doesnt do that (still not figured that out...).

But yes Javann Friday it is here... or was here depending when you read this.

Oh and Javann too is the inventor of NEABOCSWPYHK day. What's NEABOCSWPYHK day? National Eat A Bowl Of Cereal Simulataneously With People You Hardly Know. It will happen next weekend. Watch back here about NEABOCSWPYHK or just check Javann's Deep Thoughts.

So anyways thanks Javann for all those off the wall thoughts and keepin us shakin our heads, and watchin our back... because you never know when he may trip and well... lets just say that can be dangerous.

Well tell your stories on this Javanne with no e friday.

Its Sports Talk Here on misconstrued...

IMG_4927 (Small).JPG

Sports talk? What... Never such a venture here on Misconstrued. (And this will be apparent soon).

Big cities have there benefits... namely a plethora of things to do. Last night we headed down and saw the Houston Rockets

(you would think they are called the Houston Rockets because of NASA, but they were the rockets even when they were in San Diego, so it really has nothing to do with space n stuff)

vs. The Lakers

(What is a laker? This troubled me all last night during the game... (no time to research that for me... if someone else knows please enlighten us (or if you can make up something good))

Yes it was the Battle of You Ying Ling and The Shack.... Now Personally this sounds more like a battle of restaurants, maybe a Chinese restaurant vs. a southern food establishment. Who would win. Well with that analogy... its apparent, that the Chinese Restaurant would win (do to the more national prevalence of "Chinese" food). And this theory did prove true.

But one of the greatest inspirations of the night was when I decided to become a professional fouler! They could put me in to take out key players... the key is doing it "on accident" I plan to write a couple of NBA teams with this idea, look for me on the courts soon.

The last cool thing of the night was we got free tshirts! But I dont have one, in the excitement I ended throwing mine over the banister.... oops. So... Yaoo Ching Yao Ching... (that means go team in chineese (they taught us that (or whatever the correct expression was) at the game, I never got it right, but the oriental couple in front of us found it humorous...and thats what counts). So now i'm off to get my free big mac since Houston got 100 points... who said basketball didnt matter.... hey it’s a great way to get everyone to route for you (wait I don’t really like big macs…doh!)

Now For some Wackt Facts...

Its been a while since we had a fact day. Add your crazy facts for this Wackt Fact Wednesday.

A De Kalb County, Georgia, Superior court ruled that Gary Eugene Duda, 35, could change his first name to "Zippidy." Duda said that he had already been called "Zippidy" by friends for most of his life.

The odd part of this fact, is that it was in a board game. Now to add to the strangeness. Upon looking this guy up online, I found his address and phone number

So anyways, If you end up calling him, recount the experience here. And if you just have a wackt fact be sure to add it. For this Wackt Fact Wednesday.

Story Time the Misconstrued Way... Everyone Has a Part

So I was reflecting back on my long writing career, ok actually I have no writting skills.. and definilty no career. But I have a health dose of creativity. The funny thing about it is in 11th grade I recieved the English award in high school. The emphasis that year was on creative writing. We would have to write every day.

I invented a story at that time "Herbert the Pancake"

I am reintroducing the world to Herbert, and letting you have a part. This will be like those games where everyone adds to the story and keeps it going. So if you write one sentence or 18 paragraphs... its all good. Just continue from the words of the person with the last entry. (click on comments to see the last entry). Go to Read more to see the story start, and everyones part of the story.

In the little town of Graysbucket lived a greese monkey, Herold. Herold was a nice guy who always took note of things. In this same little town of Graysbucket lived Herbert. Herbert was one of those mutt type dogs which scampered around town, and that everyone knew, but no one claimed. Often in trouble... that was Herbert. Every Thursday Herbert would head down to the local service station where Herold worked and knock over the display of oil right inside the shop. This of course did not make Herold happy.

However, one day as Herbert was running late for his appointment Herbert darted in front of the car. He was hit by the passer by, who didint even take note. However Herbert was harmed in no way. He was just flattened. Herold watched all of this take place, and quickly went out with a crow bar to get Herbert off the pavement. "You look like a pancake Herbert!" Herbert just looked in confusion. But with a little prying, Herbert was freed from the pavement. The amazing the Herbert was fine, just alot thineer. "Ha ha ha Herbert the Pancake, thats what everyone will call you", said Herold. About then a gust of wind came through and caught Herbert by his long flat ears, now that he was flat like a kite, it took him way up into the sky. As he began to glide back down......

New Releases...

Grabbed Frame 2.jpg
AM I SKY DIVING? Watch the video and find out.


A little over a year ago we voyaged to a strange land, a land of danger and adventure... we headed to south africa. Seeing how My 400GB of hard drive space has dwindeled to nothing... I have been forced to begin work on projects that have been on my list for some time. Therefore... our trip to africa is finally being edited. I have decided to post this video along with other trips in the future in the video section of the site. Africa will be released in 4, 30 minute parts. Ever wanted to know what South Africa is like, or a trip in general with lots of strange, moments (thanks to malaria medication and other things). It has its high moments and its low moments... but hopefully you'll find it enjoyable. GO check it out, and feel free to leave coments. Oh And don't forget the photo section of the site... I still find that some people do not know it exist.

Sara (with no h) Friday

DSCN0046 (Small).JPG

What happens when you cross ancient clothing with modern technology? I'm not sure... but on a completely different note, its Sara (with no h) Friday. (So what exactly are those voices you've learned to deny?)

Anyway, good ol Sara, I have to say she really helped in that transition from Tennessee to Bama. In those endless long days initially at NASA where work was scant and coffee was flowing like rains from the heavens, often sara could be found with a pondering or insight online. In fact this included adoption into the family as I became known as a silvernail, (although our collective grandmother is not king on my ability to sing).

As time passed, we've enjoyed some blizzards in Ohio, some concerts I waited years to see, even One Time I got her to risk her life!

Oh and who else can I say has ever bought me a complete playdoh set?

Ah yes, Sara (with no h) is cool in my books,

So Sara (with no h)
we take that h
And take no S
and give you whats left
Hara (with no S)
its
Sara (with no H)

But I know you're saying...who is Sara, well maybe this picture will help. Or not. Add your Sara (with no h) stories for this Sara (with no h) Friday!

In the News

Ah, for the making of stupid News there is no end. Feel free to add your thoughts and comments about these topics for this weeks "In The News"... enter News digital beat music ...

A couple of weeks ago a British man completed his 7 month job of informing the general public about a problem that barely goes noticed. Barely being the key word. Stephen Gough, 44, walked across the UK naked to promote public nudity. (READ THE NEWS ARTICLE) Now what kind of cause is this? The report described how Gough suffered from cold temperatures, and such. I'm not sure what it is about some people and there inability/or non desire to wear clothes, but really they are good and useful, they hide the majority of ugly bodies (We all can think of the ill fated views at the beach), they protect us from the elements, and they protect us from the thorns! (A nightmare of mine, having to go blackberry picking...bare) Hmm funny what people work toward saving man from being tormented with. (Of course in this country every year there is the "Hike the Appalacian Trail Naked Day").

Its a quotabelo Wednesday

IMG_4904 (Small).JPG

This past weekend found us at a cave in the area. Actually an awesome cave, with a river running through it, huge rooms, bats that look frozen. Highly recomended. But of course being in the cold and great outdoors, will always lead to quotes.

"I'm glad I wore my silk stockings"

"I think I ripped a hole in my silk stockings"

-Both Javann Jones

"Is there a Coke in Lap Discount?"

-Jeremy

(After the waitress knocked my glass over perfectly into my lap. Took a bit for me to react.... but the end result was a net savings of $15)

Add your quotes, and also check out (TKF Ugly baby contest Voting ends today)

Its the First Anniversary....

If these words bring to mind the Dismemberment Plan, then we have something in common. And if these words bring confusion to you, then we still have alot in common. But all that aside...

It is the 1 year anniversary of Misconstruedthoughts.com

As with all great events, this calls for a great event... right? Hmm well we will see about that, but to get things started, we did go register at walmart. You know this is a really great idea, ever wanted to go shopping but had no money? Maybe a shopping spree... Well just head down to your local Walmart and create a gift registry. Its a great thing to do on a Tuesday night.

So if you want, just head down to walmart, and look up Misconstrued Thoughts. We are in the Database. And if you want to print out the gift list online, just go here.

So Happy Misconstrued Anniversary Mr. Thoughts.
And may more Misconstrued Thoughts Abound.

Oh and with all that talk about the Dismemberment Plan, well there is cause for action... come back tomorrow.

Scavanger Huntsville

Well Friday was Kate and Amber Friday, then Saturday on a hike I ran across an old video clip. (OK I'm sure that doesnt make sense, but it is what happened). There in the recesses of eternity was found Scavanger HUNTsville. The original wacky scavanger hunt.

The Power Team of Gina, Kate, Amber, n Jerm pulled off an incredible showing! Completing most the task. In fact with this group of gals the question was which of them was going complete each part of the Scavanger Hunt. Not your normal Scavanger (click on the continue reading section).

I believe one of the greatest challenges (other than finding 3 guys named John (You would think it would be easy, and you also would think it wouldnt be so easy for these gals to ask every person we pass if their name was John)... the greatest challenge........Make a dollar buy doing a street show…(dancing, singing, whatever...).........sounds easy enough but a good 10-15 minutes of dancing in front of walmart proved completely fruitless. Ah well..

Good times good times, the memories shall last forever, as will this video, with a few highlights, enjoy
