Attractive Tales from Grand Cities, a Social Memoir

Judging from where I have had the most fun, and success with life, work, and the opposite sex, it has for sure occurred in exotic places. What do we mean by this? I am a locally born Austin, Texan. My ethnicity is Anglo. I am 6 foot 1 inches tall and I have blueish, green, light flavored eyes. For some reason, I absolutely blend into my hometown. I am just another face in the crowd. There are taller people than me, uglier people than me, and plenty of human variety within Austin's resident sample spectrum population. There is minimal POP to my presence, while lurking in my hometown. I am a local. I am the norm. I represent the regular guy. There is no spice, no jazz, no uniqueness for me here. I am a BASIC dude here. In general being the basic norm in a geographic area and city does NOT help. I think, people prefer the new, out of the ordinary and strange, rather than acceptance to society's basic norms. I mean, I do okay here in Austin, Texas. I fit in, I work, I sle

I promise, its winding down. The Final End is ending. Here goes. I hope this doesn't disappoint as badly as the last episode of the television situational comedy, Seinfeld. The goal of the Sample Spectrum was to be a safe place for creative writing. I initially set out to be more outlandish in my tales. Another goal was to mix up the pace, format and style of this book. I hoped to keep you, our wonderful reader attentive, yet off guard. Like a literary roller coaster, cruising along a tumultuous yet safe ride. I've given it an honest effort. I'm spent. I truly felt inside, that it was time to end the Sample Spectrum. Have you enjoyed it? What has been your favorite chapter? Could you relate to any of the stories or myself at times? Was I more wild or less wild than you thought? Once again, I'd like to personally thank you, for your readership and for also passing along kind, and beneficial reviews. I'd ask for constructive reviews moving forward, yet am doubtfu

As the Sample Spectrum eventually concludes, I'd like to personally thank the readers for their time, input, viewership, and all. Every artist simply hopes their creativity, and artist craft is embraced, or at minimum recognized. This book has been an enjoyable process, and a process in which there was no set plan. It was written with complete originality. There was zero outside influence, in regards to forced literary direction. This book is a testament to the United States, 1st Amendment, which allows the absolute freedom of speech . What is freedom, if not used? In this episode of choose your own conclusion, here goes Hypothetical Conclusion II .. Insert Dreamy Wave sequence.... As our author continues to develop into full ripe, and finely aged manhood, he decides to stay on the path of singleness and personal freedom. For George Vance's second half of life, he stays in the familiar lane of bachelorhood, work, income, dating, fun, and travel. Our leader rejects his

The Sample Spectrum writing and creation process has been a natural and therapeutic process for me. It has honestly, and mostly joyously fleshed out certain back stories and current time periods of my life. In addition, I've also hoped to shed some light upon our modern day and current society. As a youthful man of the people, feel my existential outlook on this year and times before, is congruent with the remainder of American and world society. One of my goals for this specific book, and for the "The Sample Spectrum" was to be a beacon, and towering flag of history for myself and the world around me. One day in the present and future, I hope future students, society and people are able to read this expansive collection of stories, adventures, societal outlooks, and strong opinions on our Earthly world. You, our wonderful Spectrum reader may judge this book any which way you like. The more the merrier. I appreciate you! Maybe one day, the "Sample Spectru

Is it possible to completely abstain from arguing? Lately in society, the inner workings of hate, confrontation, and human negativity have risen. Arguing arrives in the forms of social, relationship, political, business, and on and on. In today's world, there is a lake full of human arguing, and harmful words being thrown around. What is causing this rise in personal disdain and meanness? Is it Global Warming? Currently the painful, skin torching, hurtful, plant killing summer sun sure has dampened my existing moods. 100 degree Fahrenheit plus heat, has powers. As Summer in the south nears its July, August, pinnacle, the exterior torching sun, may be to blame, for our angsty human moods. Maybe the earth's weather has a stronger impression on our human emotions than we think. Why do you think residents of California are always "so chill" . Well If I were living in a constant, mild 70 degree and sunny weather UTOPIA, my mood and external ambiance would be mer

I personally am a very large proponent and cheerleader for human DIVERSITY . The more diverse, welcoming, and friendly our culture and society can be, the better. I sometimes wonder, where and why bigotry, stereotypes, and racism still exist in modern day, post millennium times. When you are born those feelings are not there. While in Kindergarten, and as a kid, no one cares or notices those aforementioned traits. Nope. In grade school, all you care about is making decent grades, playing with friends on the playground, and eating foods you enjoy. Nowhere on the radar, does human discrimination enter the mind. Thus, is human hatred a learned trait? If so, quit teaching it. I don't care for it, I don't get it, and I don't practice it. People are people. We are all alive, human, and pleasantly stuck together on this earth. We're ALL in the big SHIP together. So let's enjoy the ride. There are numerous advantages to diversity. Diversity in the world, keeps lif

What does the lifestyle of "Lone Wolf" mode entail? The mindset of a person whom prefers to go at it alone, is most likely a heavy extrovert. I currently prefer a lone wolf style of daily life actions. Lone Wolf personality types sometimes feel that large social groups can hold them back and deter their freedoms. For example, when one is a cog in a huge dinner party or social group, they tend to be at the mercy of the larger groups decisions. What if you disagree with the larger groups decisions, and would prefer to create your own path instead? The person who adheres to the lone wolf mindset, never has the aforementioned problem. The single, freedom carrying torch bearer is their own entity. The lone wolf mantra is gender neutral . There are numerous pros of going through life as your own mercenary. You get to personally choose, when, where and how, all the time. If you feel like spending the night out on the town, you are free to go, discover, and engage with socie

We need excellent, kind, wonderful, women in this world, now more than ever. A life alone, is a challenging one. Women are completely necessary and required for human life here on earth. As a straight single man, or even as a single person, I can not do it all by my self. Women, we need your entire skill sets, abilities, nurturing, smarts, kindness, will power, intellect, love and more. Unleash and open up the box. Do keep in mind, it is possible to be both authoritarian and respected, without becoming a prick. The encouraging rise in women's rights, power, and workplace authority grows everyday. This is welcomed and embraceable news. Women are needed in the modern 21st century, now more than ever. In decades past of the 1950's, women were precieved solely as mothers, home makers and domestic leaders. Today's modern world has completely shifted towards a new dynamic power in women's roles. In today's world, more is asked of the female race. Unfortunately g

Is our democratic, freedom oriented culture and society, welcoming? Yes, for sure it is! Freedom as an entity itself is a wonderful thing! Unfortunately there are still citizens of this globe, living in depressed countries with authoritarian, and uncivilized regimes going on. The pros to freedom are independent choices and non judgmental living. Coupled with the ability to work and live almost anywhere. The USA has 50 states, of which I still have yet to visit half of them. Personally, I need to get out and travel more, but we shall save my abyssal, puny travel record for another day. So, What are the Downsides to Freedom? The major downside to freedom is lack of use. If you don't use a particular right, or freedom, it can possibly backfire against you. Think of muscles that atrophy due to lack of use. The sedentary, and conservative life can become disadvantageous. People stuck and burrowed into 1 specific job, and place of residence, may be hindering their overall value a

Just as our society and culture has become an "instant gratification" world, it has also evolved into an "I, Economy." Let me attempt to explain. In the American Capitalist financial market, job placement and economy, each individual person is their own brand. Sure, you can change jobs, alter industries and physically move from one city to another. Yet, inevitably, each individual human carries their own brand and entrepreneurial spirit along with them. Your name, skills, and abilities are aspects of your brand. The people you know and your sphere of influence is an element of your brand. Your previous occupations and connections are a part of your brand. Your successes, triumphs, and setbacks are included within your brand. In yesteryear and previous centuries, the American worker was loyal to the Union and Company. In today's modern world, the American worker is loyal to himself. As individuals, we often think, "what's in this for me?"

That's all I want in life right now! Bank is code for Money. Fancy cars is code for possessing a luxurious, smooth, impressive, cool automobile . Women is code for being surrounded, and sexually hounded by attractive single ladies. Lastly Travel is code for Anthony Bourdian style, authentic travel. Travel within the context of admiring local geoghraphic influences. When Anthony Bourdian travels on his excellent TV Show, he infultrates a city's organic food, history, and human culture! It is a fantastic, entertaining, engaging show. I highly reccomend it! I am envious, as I too, also wish to live the "Anthony Bourdain lifestyle" . Personally, at this current day and time, still do NOT wish to be tied down with marriage, a desk shackling job, children, or some other life restraining entity. In so far aquiring fat bank accounts. How do you plan to re-obtain this GVM? Well, previously I have successfully served real estate clients in the buying and selling o

How do you, or how should we as a society deal with FRUSTRATION? Frustration is created and arrives in multiple different formats. Frustration is NOT enjoyable, loathed, and unwanted. Frustrations is awful. I'm becoming frustrated, just writing the word frustration. What are some of the roots and causes of frustration? Personally for me, it penetrates my being and aura in different ways. Most recently it occurs during the real estate business work day. Being a human, it is difficult to displace personal feelings during negotiations and business dealings. Sometimes, we take rejection in business and negotiating personally. There are definitely some punks, rude, and bitchy people out there in the business world. I think and would advise myself and others to keep an even-keel attitude. The workers whom learn to stay "above the fray" and not let business happenings scorn and pierce their human skin, end up doing better in the immediate time, and long run. Frustrati

Single-dom is a new age and modern term, perhaps. Single-dom is a state of being, a status update, and a lifestyle. Currently I am back in single mode. No girlfriend, no real dating partner, nada. Being single is a lifestyle of free choices. As long as the single person continues to pay their bills, earn an income, and remain sustainable, they may use their single status to its utmost reaches. The Single lifestyle has its advantages. This person does not have to listen to a nagging girlfriend, this person can attempt to woo, flirt, or initiate interest upon the entire "Sample Spectrum" of society if they wish. The single person may act as they so please. They make selfish, self pleasing entertainment decisions. The single person is their own driver and vehicle rolled into 1 entity . What do I personally enjoy about being single? Well, I like the peacefulness, opportunity, and freedom. Whether successful or not, I can attempt to talk to any super attractive girl, I
