Random: Dangerous Tampering

It's hard to imagine this song or video being improved upon, but it happened.

Random: Perspective

700 billion dollar "bail-out" almost approved.
The US is currently in 10.5 trillion dollars of debt.
The Gross Domestic Product of the US is 14 trillion.

I wasn't going to get Starbucks that day, but after reading about the economy it made me feel a little better about my purchase.

Random: When there is a will...

...there is a way! This dog is legit, and deserves his freedom.




I think we have a theme going...it's dog video fridays.

(kudos to dustin for showing me this video.)

Random: Math & Statistics are never wrong

note to self: hang out with more crazy peeps and find your self statistically more likely to be sane.

Random: Lost & Found Lion

watch video before reading post

This is a shorter version of a documentary I heard about from the 70’s. Apparently it’s a true story and pretty cool. While the music induces a horrible flashback of the early 90’s and the end titles are uber-cheesy its pretty cool. The whole time I was expecting the animal to rip someone’s head off. While that would have been my ending of choice this one will do. I guess its cause I like lions and Brits.

I am not encouraging you to actually track down old pets, old friends, or old girlfriends/boyfriends. Both are dangerous, not what you remember, and better left a memory. Don’t blame my blog if you make a dumb choice. This story was turned into a documentary because it’s the exception, not the rule.

I am off to check Craigslist for any Jaguars that are up for adoption.

Random: When I was a kid...

When I was a kid I had imaginary friends. I don't remember when or why they left, but I understand this persons sense of loss. My imaginary friends were called the "bosses". They were auto mechanics and always wore coveralls. I would save seats for them at the movies. If they read this blog, it would be great for them to email me.

Random: How I can step up my game...

I've been told that I am too meek with the ladies and I need to step up my game.

Mike says I need to sweep girls off their feet.
Scott is constantly telling me that I need to be more confident.
It's like a choir in my ear telling me I'm "so money and I don't even know it."

Maybe they're right, maybe this is what the ladies are looking for?

Kudos to Darin & his blog for finding me this and inspiring me!

Random Thoughts: Intro

New Feature at Thoughts of Trent

So, many of you have been writing and emailing that you check my blog every day and are often disappointed to find that I don't have a new post. Then you'd reference another mutual friend's blog and their consistency in posting. After looking at my friends blogs I realized that theirs take about 2 minutes to post, while mine can take a little longer.

I don't want to change the style of my posts because I like writing a detailed opinion, so instead of changing formats to appease those of you that check daily, I decided to add a type of post. Random Thoughts will be just that, a random thought opinion or experience. I will write most of these from my iPhone so they will be brief and in the moment. They won't have the fancy pictures or polls, instead it may or may not have an image from the phone.

It will be something fresh and updated frequently. If you like this new idea then yippee! If not, then just scroll past the posts labeled "Random" for the old Thoughts of Trent experience. I'd love to hear what you think so post a comment. Comments let me know people are reading and digging on it.

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy!
