2011--Another Good Year

Hello. 2011 is about to come to a close and with the help of pictures and my keen memory,I am going to do a quick recap on my life in 2011:

February 7th--Power Rangers Samurai premeired!
February 14th-- The WWE return of The ROCK!
March 6th--Got a brand-new 32" big-screen TV for my birthday!
May 18th --Got new eyeglasses!
June 29th--TransFormers 3 came out in the movies!
July 29th-- The Smurfs came out in the movies as well!






A lot of things have happened over 2011 but the year went by so fast,I haven't been able to keep track of everything this year,lol. I have learned to post pics on Facebook by my new phone that I got in Decmeber last year,plus it snowed in all of January. I finally got an XBOX 360 & I got Marvel Vs Capcom 3. Then a new video game store in my city called Games To Gold has some of the old-school systems like NES,Super NES,PS,PS2,Sega Dreamcast,Sega Saturn,Sega CD,and EVEN A SEGA MASTER SYSTEM!! While there,I bought a Sega Saturn and thanks to my grandparents' Christmas gift of a $50 gift card courtesy of the folks at Amazon.com..I was able to purchase/acquire the one lone game of the DarkStalkers series that I do not have and that is DarkStalkers 2 aka NightWarriors : DarkStalkers' Revenge! I also will have completed my first full calendar year working at the Dartmouth Mall as an exterior housekeeper since I started back in June of last year aka 2010. My old workplace,Ruby Tuesday has undergone changes again but this time the district manager,Derek Butler,who caused everything there to be turned upside-down,has been demoted (probably due to the fact that over 3/4 of the Ruby Tuesday Dartmouth crew that worked for Chris & Toni have quit the place because of the new management's way of thinking--that is my take on that matter.) Plus,Allen Frazier has been fired from there and replaced by a gentleman named Steve,making Steve the 4th RT Dartmouth GM in the last fiscal year for that restaurant.Met the man,however, and he is really nice--Anthony Martone returned for a 3rd time to be the kitchen manager and Eric Tremblay returned there to be the floor manager there. I am hoping that those 3 gentlemen keep the restaurant going or else that restaurant may end up in the same fate as the Ruby Tuesday in the Silver City Galleria....gone. Speaking of other malls,since the start of 2011,I have not been to any other mall until earlier this month when my brother-in-law,my sister,my nephew, and I took a trip to the Emerald Square Mall this year to do a little shopping & browsing and I am going to admit this right now : the Emerald Square Mall looks a LOT better than the Galleria & Swansea Malls.......COMBINED!! My former boss has opened up a new restaurant in Wrentham called the Commonwealth BBQ Company. Some of the former RT Dartmouth employees are currently working there now. I miss my Ruby Tuesday peeps!The Boston Bruins finally won the Stanley Cup this year,making the city of Boston to first city to achieve all 4 major sports championships in 1 decade! But the Red Sox collapsed in September and Terry Francona was fired after 8 years and 2 titles with the team as GM Theo Epstein left as well. Well,the WWE not only saw the Rock come back but Kevin Nash & Booker T returned at the 2011 Royal Rumble and Trish Stratus returned to be a trainer for the returning reality show Tough Enough.But there was a significant return besides The Rock,the return of the old-school version of the Intercontinental Championship,courtesy of Cody Rhodes. There was a few debuts and one of them happened to be one of the former NXT Divas,AJ. Aksana also debuted on SmackDown,Kharma also debuted this year. But there were also departures,but most notably..John Morrison & Melina. Kane returns with the mask once again but also John Laurinaitis debuted on TV as the EVP of Talent Relations,Michael Cole continues to be more of a jerk on TV than usual. TNA has gone wacky to say the least. Christmas was a decent one for me this year,I got a Sony Home Theater System--really cool!! Plus,I bought a webcam AND debuted my new show on YouTube called "The People's Lima" ,check it out...you get to hear my views on a lot of subjects including a weekly segment of the show called "Slapnut Of The Week". Well,I will end this blog by saying this : Make 2012 YOUR year,never give up,keep on going,and keep the faith,my friends! God Bless and let 2012 make you smile!
