Loose Threads, Vol. 2 (Best Blogs of Aug. ’08)

Yup, it’s that time once again. It’s the last weekend of the month so as I promised you guys/gals when I made the announcement HERE, I’ll be recapping the best blogs from my archives once a month. For those that missed the memo, it’s basically a way to catch up new readers on some of the posts they’ve missed. A lot of people have hit me scared to dig into the Sock Drawer because they wouldn’t even know where to begin. Hopefully, this helps steer those people in the right direction and for the O.G. sock heads it’s a chance to reminisce.

For Vol. 2 of the Loose Threads series I’m taking it back to August ’08. If something moves you to want to voice your opinion, feel free to comment on any of the old posts. I read them all and appreciate any input on past posts that may have fell under the radar. NOTE: If you come across any broken links that got screwed up when I moved my blog over, please let a brother know. My contact email is above in the toolbar, which you can access HERE.

As always, you can always subscribe to the blog HERE, follow my random thoughts on Twitter HERE, or join my various networks on MySpace, FaceBook and BlackPlanet. Just be sure to introduce yourself as a reader/sock head to avoid going through my tedious screening process. ? Anyway, without further ado, enjoy Loose Threads, Vol. 2.

Sincerely yours,

NWSO

P.S.
For those that missed it, I did another online radio interview with my homegirls Chloe and Steely D of I’m Sayin’ Radio (every Sunday from 10:30-11 pm). We chopped it up about when is the right time to meet someone’s parents. Let me know how I did by CLICKING HERE to listen to the show.

“Between the Sheets/Between Friends”
This starts off like one of my regular sex stories, but winds up taking a very unexpected turn. See what happens when getting intimate with a friend led to a personal discussion about incest and sexual abuse. CLICK HERE to read.

“10 Signs of A Good Woman”
This was actually one of my most popular blogs and helped draw in a lot of new readers. Don’t be fooled by the signs, they’re a lot deeper than they may appear on the surface. CLICK HERE to read.

“They Came From My Balls So They’re Mine”
This one was a bit controversial because of my boy Jerry’s belief that no matter what his kids belong to him and his wife has no right to them in a divorce. CLICK HERE to read.

“I Was Born Here, Pt. 1 & 2 (Drunk Story #154)”
This is the hilarious story about my last fight with my best friend. It involves liquor (of course), strippers, a metal gate and the Brooklyn Clock Tower. Trust me, you’ll get what I’m talking about when you CLICK HERE to read.

“It’s Not That Deep/Hydrophobia”
If you’ve been following for a minute, you’ll know that I’ve been taking swimming lessons. This post broke down why getting over my fear of water is so important to me. CLICK HERE to read.

“When The Smoke Clears, Pt. 1 & 2”
This actually an update of the first short story I wrote back in college. I may turn it into a chapter in one of my books some day, let me know if it’s a story you’d buy. CLICK HERE to read.

“Blasphemy”
I actually used to post a lot more poetry but people didn’t seem to comment much on them so I kinda steered clear. In this piece, I flipped stories in the Bible into a surreal dream. CLICK HERE to read.

“The One That Got Away”
This one’s kinda relevant to my resent post about how men and woman can’t be friends. Here’s a story of a female I almost scored with (well, in my mind at least) but wound up being one of my closest female friends. CLICK HERE to read.

“Cougar Chronicles: Me and Mrs. Jones”
Older woman + younger man + alcohol + a hotel room = one hell of a sex story. CLICK HERE to read.

“Your Daughter is a Freak at Age 5”
I came across this video of underage kids winin’ and grindin’ like adults while their parents cheer on. Needless to say I was disgusted by this example of bad parenting and went off on a rant. CLICK HERE to read.

“The 2008 Booty Olympics”
This one was strictly for my fellas. On the final night of the 2008 Summer Olympics I decided to pay tribute to all the fine booties from around the world that participated and categorized them with my own medal rankings. CLICK HERE to read.

“Your Blog is Offensive (Why So Serious?)”
Tired of having people say that NakedWithSocksOn.com was only a “sex blog” that was “offensive” to some, I went out of my way to point out how it’s more about life and the pursuit of happiness than they were giving me credit for. Well, in my humble opinion. CLICK HERE to read.

“I Shoulda Rode That D*ck Like a Donkey”
Another hilarious story involving me crashing at a chick’s house on the first date and dealing with meeting her father the morning after. Believe it or not, that wasn’t the worst of it. CLICK HERE to read.
