Nate

I was such a cute little kid

So by popular demand, I'm posting the excerpt from something I wrote in 2nd grade about what I would change about myself if I could change one thing.

A Quick Change

I would like to put on about 37 pounds. After all I’m only 50. My friend Anthony is only 60 and he can lift me up! My brother can even pick me up a little and he’s only 4! I think that if I woke up one day and I had put on only 1 pound I would praise the Lord. I would be so excited. This is weird every time I put on a pound when I weigh myself which is every day I’m back to good old 50. When I go downstairs my mom would look at me then make a face and then do what she always does; hug me. My dad however would have a fit for like an hour and then he would get over it. That’s the same thing he did when my mom got her ears pierced.

And as a bonus, here's a poem I wrote in kindergarten (I'm pretty sure I had help writing it out):

Fortunately

One day I went to a baseball game

Fortunately, I made the game.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get to play.

Fortunately, I got some candy.

Unfortunately, it melted.

Fortunately, I went home.

Unfortunately, the car broke down.

Fortunately, we where near a gas station.

Unfortunately, it was closed.

Fortunately, there was a store open.

Unfortunately, it was a grocery store.

Fortunately, it was near our house.

Unfortunately, the road was icy.

Fortunately, we had ice skates.

Nate and Hannah's Wedding Vows

Nate to Hannah

When I first got a glimpse of you, my dear Hannah,
You were as a gift from God, like the Israelite's Manna.

When we go to the library to quote unquote study,
I can't help but hope that you would be my special buddy.

Darling our love is true, so ignore all the haters,
You are as sweet to me as a pack of Now and Laters.

Baby, every day with me will be a definite Fun-day,
It will be as flamboyant as our purple shirt Monday.

When I see you wear those scarves, I just want to give you a hug,
But that's only because, my dearest love, you really remind me of Doug.

Hannah to Nate

The way you're blessed with awkward hilarity is just unfair,
I look forward to forever being able to cut your hair.

When I'm around you, I noticed that you never frown,
Do you like Valencia so much because it's the name of my home town?

Although I should be, I haven't been keeping stats
Of the number of times you mention to me LOL Cats.

When you're around me, I fear you'll faint and need to go to Zerbe,
It's so meaningful when you serenade me with Daphne loves Derby.

I'm so attracted to your cologne; it's not stench-free,
You should work towards the goal of being able to bench me.

Photographic Proof that Brian from the Chris Show Hates the Environment

September 26, 2008

Dear Diary,

It's Friday and I'm really glad. I've been so tired this whole week. Last night, I had a dream and I'm pretty sure it was one dream that ran the whole time that I was asleep, but I don't remember what it is anymore. I hate when that happens. My first thought when I woke up was OMG Dance Gavin Dance is having a concert in my room at 7 AM...but actually it was my alarm ringtone.

Nate kept calling me the people's choice as funniest member of our radio show on campus. That was really nice of him. He's a great friend.

Doug kept humming Four Year Strong today and now I have it stuck in my head. In fact, I'm listening to them right now and wishing I could grow a beard. If only Nate weren't so stubborn, we would have the Four Year Strong CD and we could play it on the show. Or if he had been wearing waterproof clothes at Warped Tour. I'm sorry, I really shouldn't say stuff like that. He's such a great friend and he says really nice things about me like I'm the funniest person on the show.

I have a secret to share with you, diary: my friend Kyle didn't actually win homecoming queen. I told everyone on the show that he did...but he really didn't! It was soooo funny.

Why don't I have muscles as big as everyone else? I look at people like Roids Guy and Doug post-glycemic index obsession and I want to look like that. I really hope no one ever finds out that I'm insecure about stuff like that. That would be soooo embarrassing.

Well, it's Friday and tonight I'm hanging out with sorority girls (I'm so popular, LOL :-)). I have a 7 page paper that was due Monday but was extended to Tuesday at 5 PM. That was a very nice thing for the professor to do.

Nate wants me to write an entry for some thing called a blog for our radio show. He keeps bothering me about it. It's kinda like a diary, but online and everyone can read it. Wouldn't it be funny if I posted my deepest darkest thoughts on it like I do in here? LOL! That would be soooo embarrassing!!! If I did that, I would have to edit some parts out, or at least not copy all the names of my crushes scribbled in the middle of hearts at the bottom of this page! LOL! ;-)

Talk to you tomorrow,
Kevin

Thanks!

Thanks everyone for listening on Wednesday! We keep receiving great feedback on the show, and it's a lot of fun to do. The Facebook group is up to 95 people, 50 something people have voted in the poll, and apparently people who none of us know were tuning in this week. I'm sorry we haven't updated this much yet, I'm working on Doug and Kevin (Kevin, btw, is going to make this into his personal diary...exciting!)

I'm going to do a little free advertising here...check out the band A Great Big Pile of Leaves (http://www.myspace.com/agreatbigpileofleaves). You can download their 2 ep's for free on the site. The song's "Mystery of the Brain" and "...This is a Country Song" were probably my favorite songs of the summer.

We forgot about Doug's Fashion Tip of the Week this week = /
So to make up for it...
A striped polo and plaid shorts actually do match! Wear them together without worry.

The poll on the right is now worthless... Kevin and I were telling people either to a) Vote for Kevin, or b) Not vote for Kevin. Respectively, of course. You can continue to vote though, we encourage voting. Doug is the true winner.

Anticipation

Thanks for everyone that is now checking out the NaKeD show blog! We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of tomorrow's show (11 o'clock pm!) because we have some sweet stuff planned (more Doug's Dating Do's and Don'ts, hitting you with some sweet jams, taking on Brian and his comparatively named "Naked Space Creatures" show, etc)


As an incentive to listen to the show, I'll give you a hint about tomorrow's "Doug's tip of the day brought to you by Nate". It's another fashion tip!


Any poll ideas for the future? Leave any thoughts / comments in the appropriately named comments section. We'll let you know the results of the current poll in a few days, for those of you who havent expressed your opinion yet.



Since I haven't talked about Doug enough yet... Here's a question of the week of my own that I will pose to you, the fans. If you didn't have class til 11 o'clock in the morning, would you get up at 7 o'clock to go to breakfast every morning? Doug does. It puzzles me.

For the record

Doug cheats when he plays Madden 94 and always plays with the Dallas Cowboys. Everybody knows the Cowboys were a powerhouse in 1993-94, winning back to back Super Bowls in those years. How can you beat Emmitt Smith, one of the best running backs in the game, and Troy Aikman, John Madden's man crush? In a word, you can't.

Doug's Madden Score Vol.2

Nate wanted me to write more in the last post. I showed him.

"That's not gonna entice people to read it."

This is how I get back at them for making fun of me.

Doug's Madden Score

Doug - 3 games

Update!

Hey folks, we're still working on getting this blog up and running. We should be sending out Facebook fan pages tomorrow so everyone can support the show on Facebook! I got Doug online, Kevin should be able to post soon. We'll leave you our thoughts and our darkest secrets.


P.S. Don't forget to vote on the poll to the right!

P.P.S Doug has nice abs


Quickie:

Madden 94 Update...
Nate - 2 games
Kevin - 2 games

First Post

Thanks for visiting the NaKeD show blog! We're going to try and update this a couple times a week to tide you over until the next Wednesday at 11. Until then, Kevin's lame and cracks lame jokes.
