The Man in the Box

As i am sitting around the airport after a fun filled weekend up in the northeast, waiting on my flight.Seems there are storms in Florida right now delaying aircraft. FAGS! whats a little turbulence between friends?

I am quite happy with the man in the box video. it was more than therapeutic, it was cleansing. It is videos like these, that help you clear your mind, exile demons and forget the links to the past. as in everything in this world, everything comes full circle and there is a balance to everything.
Everyone knows its hard to lose friends, or people you thought were your friends. look around you now and think back a year, two years, five years. how many of those friends are still there?

Man in the Box whole theme was entitlement. what is some one else entitled to? what are you entitled to? are you actually entitled to anything in this world.? think about it and be honest.

Its amazing as your subscriber base grows, how people get a sense of connection to the video creator. i am often astounded how people think they make a connection with a person who they view on a video by video basis, even though you may not be seeing the real person, just this slice of a personality. and in accepting that slice, its amazing how a very small few feel as if they are now entitled to more of the video creator.

trust me when i tell you, i am lucky so far. i think i have one of the best subscriber bases ever. i get good advice from them, i get great laughs from their comments and i really receive, little or no hate......until recently.

the partnership video pulled alot of people out of the woodwork to focus on my channel, people i had only glimpses of, or past interactions with before i understood the under pinnings of youtube. yes, people i once called friends.

i can take criticism very well. what i don't take is name calling, twisting words to make your argument or the occasional monkeys that are pissed i didn't throw them a banana when they scratched their asses, sniffed their fingers and fell out of the tree.

i block with impunity, if it is not known, let it be so now. this is a game to me. some people think they are too big to be blocked and get their egos hurt over it all. sorry gang, the channel is themightythor1212, i believe that means it is my sole discretion what i want to do on it. here is some whine to wash down those crackers.

I have a creative side left over from days as a band member, song writer and performer. those days are long gone now but, the creativity still lingers. i actually will stop in the middle of the day and write songs, ideas down so i don't forget them as i am apt to do!

the Man in the box video is a statement, its a shield against the dark arts of he who's name cannot be said. the video is saying, once i knew you or thought i did. once we called each other friends, so much so i felt obligated at the time to stand by your side. And when your anger and bitterness over took you, it was not my road to follow. i cannot live your life for you, if you feel bitterness and revenge are your only roads in life, so be it. i will say goodbye to you and wish you well.

the actual "Man in the box" is focused on people who perceive they have some kind of power that that gives them an entitlement to provoke you into a drama situation. They think that something that they upload to youtube will some how permeate the screen and take on a life of its own in a real world.

But that is simply a bad belief system.

there is so much more going on in a life outside that box, you will never cross that line, so no matter what you say in that little box, it rises and dies with in the lines of the Internet and never comes to any kind of life. therefore , it is meaningless and does change a thing in my life.
and that's it in a nut shell. it is hater proof shield that says, you are just a man in the box, a former friend, you cannot leave that box and i will not give you a voice by fighting you.

this is the last of the serious blogs for now. and i also promised my self i would make them shorter. Consider this your notice!

Next up, lets talk about sex baby!

see ya
