Myspace OR Facebook?


Hey friends it's Oz here at your service for this fine evening of your blogging pleasure. Leah has decided that she wants to heat up a nice debate on myspace vs facebook. Which one do I prefer and why? Leah already knows my answer due to past text messages and conversations the past couple weeks. However the general public out there do not know what I prefer so this is your time to get a glimpse into the life and times of one Ozzie Whitehead the 3rd. Myspace has been around for several years and I'm not going to lie it's a hell of a website. One man having this great idea of having ordinary people have there own space online to share with there friends and family a totally cool concept. As time went by there were a lot of spam messages going into peoples inboxes which set up an outrage with fellow mysapceers. That has trimmed down quite a bit don't get a lot if any spam messages anymore. Myspace gives us common folk a chance to read blogs from celebs I enjoy the Matt Hardy, John Morrison, The Miz and Victoria blogs WWE ROCKS they are fabulous! Over the past couple months and most notably the past couple weeks when I send a message to one or two of my friends on mysapce my account gets phisched. I change the password try again oh your phisched again and again and again you get the picture people! So now I've managed that problem now I don't use myspace on the computer just on the G1 phone on myspace mobile much better. That is the case for choosing myspace over facebook. Now we will venture into the facebook generation. I will start by saying that facebook is a lot easier to find old classmates it lists them by first and last name alphabetically. Also facebook isn't all that flashy with the profiles it's so easy even a caveman can use it um ha ha! There are tons of applications beyond myspace comprehension and that's the bottom line. The Friend updates and what are you doing now are cool you can comment on everyone and you can write on peoples walls like I used to write and color on the floor and walls of my bedroom as a kid also used the permanent marker my mom wasn't too thrilled. Facebook is also the best way to network in all these communities and facebook is really rad. Both myspace and facebook have mobile applications which I have to say both are really solid. It has come to that time where I have to make a decision. That decison wasn't that tough and my decision is that facebook craps all over myspace and that's the bottom line because stone cold said so! The number one reason why facebook is better than myspace is my account hasn't got phisched one time it's really secure. So Oz wants to know what is your stance on this sticky debate between mysapce and facebook? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

TV Series or Movies On DVD?


Hey friends Oz is back again for another edition of the Oz Files. Today we discuss the hot topic of TV series on DVD or Movies on DVD? Which do you prefer and why? Wow this is a great topic I am sure it's something that has been discussed a many a time at watercoolers across the country. I am going to start off for the movies on DVD. Movies have become such a great American pastime for several generations and many generations to come. When a movie comes out you really want to see what do you do? You go to the movie theatre of course and enjoy the movies in the company of friends and family or maybe if you went to two movies on Monday like I did in the daytime then in movie number one it was just you and a girl and the other one you were all by yourself wow what a great time had by all. Opening weekend at the box office is a major thing all across the world. However maybe you would like to hear the reviews from certain publications and people you know before making an educated decision about watching the movie or not. This is where the movies on DVD come in. If you see a movie that you have had your eyes on for quite some time and you were slapping yourself silly because you regretted not seeing it at the theatre. No fear thank goodness for technology my friends we have something we like to call a DVD! So you go to blockbuster or wherever you prefer and buy or maybe rent a movie just to see what you think of it. At that point if you give it two thumbs up then I am sure you will make that conscious decision to buy that movie to keep forever forever forever I'm sorry I love the Sandlot Go Squintz ha ha! One last point on movies on DVD is now if you have a blu-ray machine you can watch movies in blu-ray from what I have heard are out of this world visually. OOOO AWWWW. So that is the case to support the whole movies on DVD. Now I proceed to TV series on DVD should we or shouldn't we? When you look at TV shows there are quite a few to choose from. Most of the older shows that are off the air you can buy for really cheap online and make a whole collection. Wow that sounds like a great idea oh wait I have already done that I have like 12 or 13 full TV series oh and you better recognize. A great thing about TV series on DVD is that you can relive past moments from your favorite shows and if you are really lame then you can buy certain seasons but I the wizard of Oz only buys TV series if they are a full series if they are not you can forget about it! Also TV series have theme music and if you really enjoy the show I am sure you will also enjoy singing along to the theme music and don't be afraid to admit that you sing a long it's okay everyone does it. Also with the TV series I am sure there are some great classic lines that everyone knows and you want to see it over and over again this is a great way to watch your favorite shows on DVD. Now That I have went into detail on both points of view it is now time for Oz to make his final cut. This wasn't easy but when it boiled down to it I had to go with TV series on DVD because you know I love TV shows and I loved DVDs put them together what do you get? TV series on DVD and I really enjoy the older shows than the newer shows I have like 12 or 13 series on DVD they are fun to watch. I also enjoy movies too but they are better for me to watch them at the movie theatre but movies are totally awesome! Give a little shout out to Mama Mia and Abba good times good times bravo bravo bravo! What is your take on this whole discussion? I would like to know so leave some comments. Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Captain Vs Captain


Hey friends oz here back again for yet another heart pumping chest bumping edition for The Oz Files. Today Leah has decided to make this topic very interesting. Today's discussion will be who would win a battle between Captain Morgan and Captain Crunch and why? This brings together a clash of the titans. In one corner you got Captain Morgan who is the face of spiced rum and who has a long sword and his scruffily looking facial hair. Also looks like he's had his share of shipmates ha ha. Captain Morgan looks like he wants to fight somebody 24/7/365 and it wouldn't surprise me if you saw Captain Morgan on Americas Most Wanted for Bar Hopping oh my bad I couldn't resist. In the other corner you got the good ole Captain Crunch. His most notable traits would have to be his white mustache and his blue captains hat with the letter C in gold lettering. He also has the smile that can tell 1,000 words. Captain Crunch has the voice for the kids and the kids at heart and Captain Morgan is the voice for young adults and real old men and women. Before I make my decision who will win and why? I'd like to say that Captain Morgan is definitely a young buck compared to Captain Crunch and may have a slight advantage in the stamina department. On the other hand Captain Crunch has perseverance because he has a lot of experience and knows how to take those body blows. If you ask the crunch man AKA Captain Crunch what is the key to a a victory in a battle? His answer would be it's a marathon not a sprint young whippersnapper! What does Oz think on this whole controversy? I think if there were to be a battle between Captain Morgan face of the spiced rum and Captain Crunch the face for cereal across this great country of ours I would have to take Captain Crunch Soley based on his vast experience and his cereal is really really good! So it looks like Captain Morgan bites the dust! What do you think on this controversial topic? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Rain Or Snow The Debate Continues

Hey Friends it's Oz again for my blogging extravaganza. Let's cut right to the chase today's topic is rain or snow which is better and why? I will begin with the case for the rain drops, Why would you like rain rather than the snow? Well rain comes down and you get all wet and you might even catch a cold if your out too long. Rain is cool because when you have a thunderstorm rain is soon to follow. Rain produces puddles of rain so if you want you can play in the puddles. Tonight I found myself with a decision walk through a gigantic puddle or run into the chance of falling on ice I went with walking in the puddle. How did that turn out? Not so good my socks are soaking wet boy it was nice and chilly that is for sure. As a kid I used to catch rain on my tongue and drink it yum tasted like chicken um no just a joke there it tasted more like water. If your waiting for a ride or walking down the street and a vehicle comes by and find a puddle and goes through it fast then your screwed. I'd like to call that wipe out and one last thing do not have your cell phone out and text when it's not raining because even if it did rain and your under a building raindrops might fall into your keypad. Hm this sounds oh so familiar Leah gotta love those alien text had to get a replacement! One last thing you gotta love Singing In The Rain! Now it's time for the snow debate! As a kid I loved the snow you can build snow angels and make snowmen and have snowball fights and even go sledding or skiing. Wow those were the good ole days! Let's fast forward a few years and now as an older person I'd have to say snow is a drag. You have to shovel the snow and the snow turns into ice. If you drive in the snow it's hard to drive in even with snow tired. Snow delays flights especially during the holiday season now I don't think you would want to deprive your loved ones of your presence. A couple inches here and there of snow is fine but when you get 6 feet of snow in 2 weeks that's another horse of a different color. This brings me to a story a very bad experience if you ask me. I was walking on the sidewalk well not really a sidewalk I'd like to call it a snow bank and both feet got stuck in the snow and one of my shoes got stuck and buried in the snow. I tried pulling that sucker out of the snow with no gloves on for a better part of 45 minutes. There were times I had to lay there for awhile to compose myself I kept yelling and praying and almost came to tears! Thanks for listening to that heart felt story and I will always remember the day that Oz's shoe got the business. Now it is time to make up my mind which do I prefer? Is it snow? Or is it rain? Hm based on the above information I don't think this will come to a shock to anyone but I'd rather have the rain than the snow. Raindrops falling down having thunder storms are okay in my book. The reason why rain is so good is because I said so and that's the bottom line. What is your choice do you have any good or bad memories about the rain or snow? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Team Trivia Drunk Or Sober?


Hey Friends it's your good buddy Oz. Today's topic is when your competing in team trivia is better to be drunk or sober? Yes I know this topic is ground breaking and pretty heavy stuff. Let me start off by saying that I have seen people at trivia drunk as a skunk and sober and I've been in both situations as well. If your going to be sober for team trivia I think you have a better shot at winning because you have a clear mind about everything and you probably wouldn't fall down handing in your teams answer. Also when your sober you can talk some sense into some of your drunken team mates they try so hard but in the end they are too trashed to think for themselves. Another point for being sober while doing team trivia is if you win you remember winning and can savor thee moment in your place in team trivia history yeah boy! On the other end of the spectrum is there anything wrong with being drunk at team trivia? Let's see if you pace yourself and drink and drink all the way through, I'll tell ya I commend you for your efforts because it takes someone special to be the designated drinker. Yes maybe you can't think straight or even walk and maybe you might know the answer but your team mates will veto you because your intoxicated but when you are right and they are wrong you can yell I told you so very loud so the whole bar can hear you. If at halftime of team trivia you take the special shots for your team to gain points and you have like 12 shots wow that would be ay okay with me you gotta take one for the team! What do I think of all of this? It's a close call but in the end The Oz has to lean on the side of being sober because if you win you remember it and your not hung over the next day and you don't have to send drunken text to people who think your from outer space trying to crack the code. I want to know what is your stance and why? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

The Piano Man!

Hey Friends Oz here to supply you with a great blog about, What is my favorite singer/band and what makes them so excellent? Let me start this off by stating that I am not a music guy but I do like very few singers and bands. Elton John is one of my all time favorites. The guy knows how to put on a show and his voice is so electric. Sir Elton John is a music legend and my goodness can you feel the love tonight? It doesn't get any better than Elton John and Your Song that is an absolute classic. It has been used in several films most notably Moulin Rouge. Another one of my favorite artists would have to be Barry Manilow! Yes, I know he's old but wow what a great vocalist and musician. With songs like Mandy, Copacabana, Can't smile without you and many more. Barry Manilow has appeared as a guest judge on American Idol a couple of years back and he has nothing but good feedback. Now how about some bands I only like two so I will cover each of them for ya. First off the Beach Boys are like SOOO rad dude! With songs like surfin USA, California Girls, FUN FUN FUN, Little Saint Nick, Barbara Anne and many more. With the high pitched voices and the pizazz of the 1950's the Beach Boys will always be on the top of my list. Keep on rocking the beach boys surfs up dudes and dudets! The Beatles wow a cult following all across the world. I don't think you won't find anyone who doesn't like the Beatles or at least respect them. Songs like Hey Jude, Let it be and Let's get together and so many more. I would also like to state the case for ABBA who I just discovered over the summer because of Mama Mia. They have tons of songs like Mama Mia, S.O.S, Gimmie Gimmie, Dancing Queen, Waterloo, Take A Chance On Me, The Winner Takes It all, Money Money Money and so many more. It is now time to reveal what my favorite singer/band is and why they are so excellent? When push comes to shove there is only one guy that is my number one artist and that name is none other than Billy Joel "The Piano Man"! Billy Joel has so many hits it's not even funny. Just to name a few we got The Piano Man, New York State Of Mind, Moving Out, Honesty, Big Shot, The Longest Time, Uptown Girls and so many more. All his music is full of passions and most of the songs are from his past life experiences and that's awesome. Why is he so excellent because he's the man and that's the bottom line! The Piano Man gotta love it! On a side notes I own all the greatest hits of the above topics up for discussion accept for the Beatles which that may have to change. Oz wants to know who or what is your favorite singer/band and why are they so freaking excellent? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Animals Put Your Paws Up!

Hey friends it's Oz again are you getting tired of me yet? No, that's a great answer and it's time for another blogoramma. Today's topic is what is my favorite animal and why is it so amazing that just came from the horses mouth ha ha ha um anyways let's get started. Let's start off with the common pets cats and dogs. One would say that a cat is high maintenance and very stubborn animals and dogs can be a man's best friend and dogs can do many things. They can do tricks, hunt, swim in the lake but I wouldn't suggest the ocean because they might drown. As well as guarding the ones you love. We go from home to sea let's see what's around the bend. A Fish is quite the unique animal if you want to call it an animal. Fish don't live very long because of fisherman and other animals that like to eat them. I prefer salmon or trout yum they taste good so I guess you know that I won't be picking fish as my favorite animal. We can speak of the flamingo, a flamingo is hot pink and it stands on one leg and I don't know how they survive out in the wild. Maybe if you know you can tell me. An Ostrich can grow up to 9ft tall and runs up to 40 MPH wow that's so awesome I wish I was an ostrich so I can hide my head into the sand to avoid being noticed. Monkeys are also a great animal from what I hear they are intelligent animals but you never know. Swinging from trees all day wouldn't be so bad at all but I don't think I could handle the continuous feeding of the bananas wow not so much. This brings me to my choice of my favorite animal and why I think it's so amazing! The animal that comes to mind is the skunk and this is a very odd choice but the skunk makes a great pet if you are a bum that is because skunks smell when they spray off odor and bums just smell really bad or if you don't take showers! Skunks are black and white and I'm white so I guess that makes them ay okay! Skunks are small and filled with potent ammunition so I would say don't piss off a skunk because they are my friends! There should be a skunks zoo only for skunks. Skunks or Us that would be a totally awesome thing but it won't happen and I think that's just bogus. Anyways what is your favorite animal and why is it SOOOOO AMAZING? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!
