Daily Prompt – My Autobiography

Daily writing prompt
You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence?

The answer to this question is… If you are reading this, I ask why?

My life doesn’t seem to merit an autobiography. So I would ask, why are you reading this. I am flattered by the interest, but isn’t there something else you could be doing with your time. My life is pretty boring. We all have our stories, but mine in retrospect wasn’t all that exciting. Sure, I have a blog, which is a chronicle of my life and what is going on in my weird head that is wired differently. I have no plans to pen the story of me.

Friends, I do want to say, thanks for your time and attention to my blog and a most eclectic compilation of posts.

Daily Prompt – Who Would I Be For A Day – Tony Khan of All Elite Wrestling

Daily writing prompt
If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why?

If I could be anyone for a day, I would be Tony Khan, who is the CEO and President of All Elite Wrestling among other things. Part of his duties is to run the wrestling promotion and to produce the matches that are featured on the weekly TV shows “Dynamite” and “Collision”.

Tony is by all accounts a hard worker who cares for those who work for him. I would enjoy being a professional wrestling matchmaker for a day and see what matches I could come up with. Feedback from the fans is something he is mindful of and that would be a tricky part of the job.

One cool thing about being in his position is that he gets to work with some of the greatest professional wrestlers on the planet. He is a fascinating man who I think I would get along with, we are both nerdy and enjoy things that are unique.

Daily Prompt – Changing The Law, No Felons As POTUS

Daily writing prompt
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why?

There are many laws I would like to change but the one that needs changing is that felons cannot run or be elected President of the United States of America, Inc. Yep, the current POTUS shouldn’t be allowed to run for anything. He should be in jail, but that is another post for another day. America needs a change in this area.

Daily Prompt – Me and Sports

Daily writing prompt
What are your favorite sports to watch and play?

My favorite sport is Professional Wrestling, especially All Elite Wrestling. I also enjoy some college football at the FCS level and minor league soccer. I used to be a big basketball fan. Furthermore, I like to bowl and other low-impact activities.

Daily Prompt – My First Computer

Daily writing prompt
Write about your first computer.

My first computer was a Commodore Vic 20 which preceded the popular Commodore 64. It was a Christmas gift to me in 1982. I loved that machine because you could learn to program and play games. It was an 8-bit system, and it used a cassette tape drive and cartridges like a video game. It was also at a great price point of under $300 at the time. Furthermore, it really did a great job of getting technology to the people. Thanks to my mom and dad for gifting it to me and making me a happy boy.

Communicating Online

Daily writing prompt
In what ways do you communicate online?

The prime way I communicate online is through my blog here on WordPress and through social media. I have accounts on Threads, BlueSky, Instagram and the venerable Facebook. Email is a more thorough and personal way of connecting with others and to receive notifications about important things. Having a cellphone means texting too.
