2 Challenges Accepted
This past week, I have been tagged by a few people to participate in some challenges. I'm usually up for a good one, and so, here is a combo pack for the ones people suggested I do. My Chi Chi Doll picked me for the #gettoknowme one initiated by @anomadsoul, and I was picked by two aspiring bloggers from the @welcomewagon and long time family PIMP @shadowspub to do the #tenrandomthings challenge. The one who started it, @twodorks, and the friendly @anutu.
10 Random Things
Before we get two deep into this one, I have a couple questions to answer from each of them and then I'll post the rules and my nominations. To @anutu, this is easy bud, I'm going fishing - it's #myhappyplace where I do some of my best and most peaceful thinking. To @twodorks, Time. We obsess over it by keeping track of it down to the second on a daily basis, some more than others, and many have fallen into mundane routines that let the time just slip away.
This challenge doesn't have to do anything with Steemit. Each person who decides to do the challenge will have to say at least 10 facts about yourself! Pretty easy right?! After that you need to ask one question and you have to tag that person to play along! Don't forget to use the hashtag #tenrandomthings so we can find your post!
Here We Go
- If I grew my hair out, it would be insanely curly - probably where the Goldilocks come from on my princesses.
- I lied to my kids about what happened to the fawn my wife hit with her van. Hate myself for that, but she insisted as to not hurt their feelings.
- The smell or taste of blood doubles the efficiency of my senses - like some weird inexplicable superpower. (does that make me a vampire?)
- I love the taste of popcorn, but I hate eating it. Got a husk stuck in my gums one time and it was the most painful thing my mouth ever felt.
- I believe that if you believe - ANYTHING is possible.
- On top of losing a son, I've experienced one stillborn, 5 miscarriages, and 2 abortions.
- Outside of finding four-leafed clovers on a regular basis, I've also found several 5, one 6 and even three 7-leafed clovers.
- I have 14 pillows and three stuffed animals on my bed - and while writing this - Princess Freya.
- At one time, I owned almost a million dollars worth of sports cards - they were stolen. I chalk that one up to karma catching up to me from my youth.
- I used to try to fly. I would jump out of my 2 story bedroom window as a kid with various parachutes and wings. Garbage bags, pillow cases, I even made wings out of turkey feathers, sticks and a hot glue gun one time.
My Question and Nominees -
- To those tagged I pose this: What is the most embarrassing moment in your entire life?

Not really sure how to go about this
So what I'm going to do is break down various sections as I feel I am a multi-faceted individual. I have a few niches I can fall into occasionally, but mostly, I'm just me. I like music, photography, discussion, radio, acting, fishing, just so many things, and I share almost all of it. There isn't much you all don't already know about me, I'm an open approachable book. So, see how it goes.
My Very Fyrst
Funny pun there huh? The very first post I made called 'The Future Is Digital' got a whopping six votes, no comments and made 0.20. The vote that I did get, the first one to vote on it, the very first vote I ever got on the blockchain, was from @fyrstikken. I couldn't help but cackle at the irony and figured hey, twenty cents ain't too bad for a first post with no pictures, no markdown or html or even an introduction. He was also the first witness vote I ever gave out. Based on his recent dealings and self-realizations, I may have to revisit that vote. Not sure he even needs my little MVs, but, it'll always have a soft spot for me.
The Music
This will never go away. I will be spittin until my teeth fall out, then maybe even after that. For those that don't know, I even had the top downloaded track on @soundlegion's compilation last year. Was a beauty I made with @arcaneinfo. For those that know how to read between the lines and understand that belief is a powerful thing, I want you to note the timeline of a select few I have chosen to reminisce on and read the lyrics.

Verse
I've published probably just as much poetry and free verse on the blockchain as I have music, however, it didn't get near as much as the attention that the music did. So, I never did much after that. I even got flagged on a few of them because of 'misappropriated tags'. Eat a dirty dick. Dictate what tags I use? C'mon, that's like saying I can't upvote my own comment. So, I picked out a few blasts from the past, hopefully you enjoy them!

#thealliance
The family actually wasn't even introduced on Steemit until after a month of fuckin' around on Facebook with it. And my, how we have evolved and grown! The first post I mentioned #thealliance, nobody even noticed what I had just started. The second one, we picked up one of our most loyal and supporting members - @dmcamera! Been quite a ride so far huh hun? And it just progressed from there. I figured out how to make my posts more presentable, opened up @thealliance account and started the race. I think people really started to grasp in the second alliance post, what it was we were trying to do as we all came together to help @goldenarms get a dolphin-sized delegation. We had some lovely members like @jaynie come and go, still sad about that one. And some that never even took us seriously. But here we are - still.

Becoming a Witness
This was an idea I had tossed around for quite awhile, and really wanted to. I was still very inexperienced with the way everything worked when I did make my bid and honestly, am still learning. But, I love it! I am no where near where I want to be and believe I will be, but steady wins the race. Thank you to everyone that has me on their list of 30, truly. I have several posts from that area, but am only going to put the first and most recent so you can see my progress :)

My Nominees -
This Post Is Getting LONG
But if you love me, you have read at least most of it and have found yourself down here. You will notice the first part of the title - R-E-D. It's a new 'radio station' you all can tune into run by @eaglespirit and I. We thank @shadowspub for letting us host one trial on The Ramble, and @underground for letting us run a few shows on @minnowbootcamp. This is a server intended to be unaffiliated with any community or groups. Just fun good radio shows. If you have one that you might like to try out, talk to us! Words With Witty will STAY on The Ramble and @ramblingradio, no worries. We are also seeking a streamer that can record and stream the shows for us, anyone interested? Right now, @snook will be doing them, but she won't always be able to - thanks again by the way sis. So, here it is:
Come Join Us!
Can come to the 'station' by clicking or tapping here. Today, and you'll have to follow @r-e-d to find out show times or pay attention to @eaglespirit or my announcements, but ya, today we have @katrina-ariel coming on for some live musical deliciousness! Maybe we'll get some poetry out, who knows, we're just there to have a good time. This Friday, at 5 p.m. EST/9 p.m. UTC, we will have @lukestokes as our guest witness for the 'Informal Witness Hour'. Be sure to join us, will be exciting!!!
