I am Joseph G. "Tray" Murphy,
and as you all know, I am a
"Self-proclaimed Expert on the World"!
Yup,
this site is all about me. Nope, I'm not going to blog, I honestly don't
believe that anyone gives a pooty little fart what my thoughts are on
anything (and quite frankly, I don't much care what I think about things,
either!). So I won't take up the hard drive space with bits and bytes
of random junk that mean nothing to noone.
Instead, I'm going to toss out great huge blobs
of randomness that do mean something to someone. Me. This is
a very
random collection of stuff from all over the bleeding Internet!
I was on a trip down memory lane the other night, cleaning out a filing cabinet, and came across some old "wallet items" - ID cards of various sorts. So I made a page of them, with the stories behind them - call it therapy...
Here's something to sort of explain my
philosophy of life: Frazz,
on the way to get there... and some fine words by Ralph Waldo Emerson:
Ponder
this...
ENJOY YOURSELF!

I happen to agree with (and sort of fit) this sentiment:
"I
argue very well. Ask any of my remaining friends. I can win an argument
on any topic, against any opponent. People know this and steer clear of
me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect, they don't even
invite me."
-- Dave Barry, Humourist
This is one of my philosophies in life. I wish I knew who said it first!
Life
is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in
a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used
up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming "WOW, WHAT A RIDE!!!"

I was rooting through some old directories on my hard drive and found my WordPuzzle collection. WordPuzzles are really nifty little puzzles where words are placed to form phrases...see how many you can get! Now I gotta find a bunch of new ones to add in!
In
December 2003, I did something I've never done before: I broke a
bone! And break it I did - I shattered my right distal radius, one of the
bones between the elbow and the hand, this break was right at the wrist.Here is the x-ray of the break...and the x-ray of the repair!
