Inspiration
Hello every one well it is Halloween one of my favorite holidays! I will probably hand out candy and eat a lot of my Mom’s candy. What other holiday can you dress up like some crazy monster or a devil and have a lot of fun. Well I thought I would post this email that I got from a friend. If you ever feel useless or that you do not mater and no one cares maybe this will lift your spirits. I know I can feel like that some times. But just remember you do count and some one does care well in till next time enjoy.
Think about this... You may not realize it, but it's 100% true.

1. At least 2 people in this world love you so much they would die for
you.
2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.
3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be
just like you.
4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't
like you.
5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
6. You mean the world to someone.
7. If not for you, someone may not be living.
8. You are special and unique.
9. Someone that you don't even know exists, loves you.
10. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from
it.
11. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look:
you most likely turned your back on the world.
12. When you think you have no chance of getting what you want, you
probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, probably, sooner
or later, you will get it.
13. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude
remarks.
14. Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much
better when they know.
15. If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they
are great.

Home Improvement
Well folks enough talking about my self. Time to talk about something that kind of bugs me. One of my biggest things that pisses me off is when some one does not help some one as much as they can. In the car once in a while my Mom listens to this home improvement show. I do not really mind it but what I do mind the half assed answer they gave one Old lady. This old lady called in to the show to ask for some advise. Apparently she needed her rough fixed. She got some one to do the job for her but they did not finish the job and she is stuck with half a rough. She has tried to call the rough people but they will not return her calls. Now the guy’s on the show tell her to get a lawyer which is not a bad answer, but than she says that she cannot afford a lawyer. So they tell her basically to bad so sad. Now I think that is a half ass answer! This is what I would have told her. I would have told her to call a lawyer and tell them what happened and than tell them that she is on some kind of pension and she does not have much money and than tell her to ask them if they can work some thing out maybe half price or something like that and if that does not work I would also tell her to call a law school and see if they can help her out I know they have programs like that at law schools. Now this old lady will probably never read this but I had to get this off my chest. I’m even tempted to call the show some time. But I do not know if I will do that. What do you guy’s think about this situation?

The beast
Welcome back friends for another helping of the Timmer. I just want to explain my email name to you. It stands for silent but deadly beast now you are probably wondering why I would pick a name like that well this is why. Locked in side me lies a beast raged and in a cage the beast is usually contained. But once in a while he tricks me in to letting him loose and all hell brakes out. He is some times mad and some times he is bad. But some times he is funny out going and confident. Usually this takes a beer or two to happen but some times it just happens when he is having a good time. Now by this point you are probably wondering what the hell I’m talking about. The best way I can explain it is like this. I’m usually a quiet and loving guy. But once in a while I can loose my temper that is the bad side of the beast. Like when people move my stuff and they do not tell me ware they put things that really enrages the beast. The other side of the beast is an out going fun loving party animal. A lot of people usually do not see this side of me ware I talk a lot more than I usually do and have a bit of a different personality . So there you go that is why I’m the silent but deadly beast.

I have an eye disease called RP which is a degenerative disease which means that I have been slowly loosing my vision over the years. I have been real blind for about7 years before that I had low vision. I’m a power lifter which is a sport made up of squat bench press and dead lifts. I have been doing this for about ten years.

Whether you like me or hate me. I hope you will listen to what I have to say and if you think I suck that is okay too.
