Just opened up my laptop and cleaned out all the dust in it. It was ridiculous how much dust had collected in there over the past 4 years. Yes, I haven't once cleaned my laptop out, but what can I say, I'm lazy. I pulled out a baseball sized amount of dust bunnies from inside. It was kind of cool.
Ohhhh! But after cleaning it out, my computer is running smoother(that's kind of a funny sounding word isn't it?) and it's just awesome! I kind of fallling back in love with my computer again. I guess it's like when married couples spice things up one night after years of monotony.
Call me a nerd, but who needs porn when you've got a clean computer.
We live in a world where the "happy medium" rules. You drink too much, you puke. You drink too little, you don't have fun. You observe the rules of religion too strictly and you end up rejecting the very people God says to respect. You hate religion too much and you begin decrying people who merely hold a faith. 
Look at bodybuilders. That is a great example of excess in our modern world. Most boys start off working out to be stronger and to look better for girls. But when that passion turns into an obsession, you get grotesque, not statuesque, slabs of meat that most sane women would not touch with a 10 foot pole fixed with a condom.
I've always found it funny and hypocritical that we condemn people for being indecisive, middle-of-the-road, flip-floppers but when it comes to true issues in life, it seems as if the middle of the road does the least damage. Who's ever heard of a terrorist attack from an apathetic terrorist? Zealots to a cause instigate trouble. 
But of course with any subjective measure, the variability is wide and often unknown. And with this wide variability and the underlying nature of man, how are people expected to get along. How do you tell someone who is too smart to stop being smart? How do you tell someone who loves to joke around to stop goofing around? And how does one who has a passion for something quell the fire down? Is it possible? Is it right? How many more questions can I ask in this series to escalate tension?
However it's possible my statement about the "happy medium" was wrong. That viewpoint could be too localized to issues that are already too divisive. Maybe in the grand scheme of things, having that extreme passion can be beneficial. Our great musicians, scientists, businessfolks(see, I'm not totally misogynistic). All crafted out of passion. Heck even our greatest romantic comedies or as Brian Brett coined, Rom-Com's, show the triumphs of great love conquering all. It seems that we need these zealots to guide the sheep in the flock to higher ground. But maybe I'm just back in the middle-of-the-road fighting for the Happy Medium.

Tip #1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do :
The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!
*And the testicles are the weakest. And ladies, when guys say they have balls of steel, it's not true. All balls (or ball) are made out of crushable,crunchable, and downright vulnerable Playdoh.
Tip # 2. Learned this from a tourist guide in New Orleans
If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM.
Toss it away from you....chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you,
and he will go for the wallet/purse.
RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
*unless there are two guys, in which running in either direction will be futile. Refer back to analysis of tip 1.
Tip # 3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will.
This has saved lives.
*It's also nice because kids like it when you wave to them. And if you hear a truck, remember to signal it to honk its horn.
Tip # 4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc. DON'T DO THIS!)
The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go.
AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR , LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.
*Forgo putting on your seatbelt, checking for pedestrians, or turning on your headlights. All that stuff's optional anyways.
and... If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF, repeat: DO NOT DRIVE OFF!
Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it . As soon as the car crashes bail out and run. It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.
*To be serious for a second, this is actuallly a good way to get knocked out because the force of an airbag will almost always knock you out for a bit.
Tip # 5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot,or parking garage:
A..) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor , and in the back seat
*But wait, I thought they were supposed to immediately get into their cars and leave. Should they prospect and mine for gold as well? Maybe check the oil and coolant levels to make sure someone hasn't tampered with that?
B) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)
*Possibly understandable, but God forbid a man sits in his car by himself! Remember. Every man in a car by himself is likely a predator.
Another tip i was resently given concerning cars, if you are ever locked into a car and the keys are in the ignition obviously drive that van away from there... fast! BUT if no keys are in the ignition jam it with something like a boby pin (break it in there) or even a wad of chewing gum... remember, leaving the primary location is the worst situation possible, if he cant start his van... he is going to have a much harder time transporting you.
*Chewing gum and a boby pin. Can someone call MacGyver down and ask him to bring a rubber band and some duct tape down as well? Geez! All those situations seem to be straight out of movies! Tip #6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs.
(Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!)
*Especially in the case of fires and earthquakes.
Tip # 7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN!
The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, Preferably, in a zig -zag pattern! (This was confirmed in the K.C. Star)
* The KC Star, the leading authority on Close Quarters Combat Evasive Manuevering. Plus, I'd rather not get shot period. Solution? Carry a bigger gun. Or even better, a freaking sword.
If a predator has a gun, aren't you always under his control?
Tip # 8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP ! It may get you raped, or killed.
Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked "for help"
into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.
*Alright, that's pretty scary, but isn't this a sign that we need to all help make the world a better place when we advise women not to help disabled folks because of fear?
Tip # 9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her "Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door." The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, "We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, DO NOT open the door." He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night.
*That sounds like a straight up scary urban legend. Wowie Magowie!
In conclusion, all these are sound tips in certain situations but they all seem a little too much like something out of a Mel Gibson movie (no, not Passion of the Christ). So stay safe and punch guys in the testicles
