Hit Rock Bottom

Originally planned on going to Cadillac Ranch with my friends from up north while in town, but they were hosting Bengals Nation and there was not a seat in the house. So we walked down the street to the Rock Bottom and Happy Hour there is a huge bargin! After sitting ourself at a table thought was a bar table to later find out wasn't and basically cut in front of 15 other groups waiting on a table (whoops) we ordered Nachos with beef, chicken wings, two pizzas, mac n cheese, and a couple beers and the whole bill came to only $45. But we left a great tip for our waitress for letting us nab the table! Really nice catching up with both Debbie and JRS.



I was really surprised with how booming downtown was. Not a place to park anywhere and people walking all around. Fountain Square was beautiful, wish I had gotten a better picture.

New look and new focus

Still have some work to do on the layout. Mainly get the images hosted on my own server, change the app icons and links, and figure out why I have that damn gap!

All posts from now on will be posted from my iPhone. Be it family fun, Geocaching, observations of stupid or rude people, or whatever else crosses my little mind or catches my eye. This means I could post multiple times a day or go days without posting. But I think this will get me posting much more than I have been.

For more updates check me out on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/thekmancom. Also more photos can be seen o Flickr http://www.flickr.com/thekmancom.

Apparently this is my DISC Profile

Example Graph This 'U'-shaped profile is not uncommon. It represents a highly formal and structured individual with a forceful and blunt style. This type of person believes in getting things right, and is rarely afraid to state their mind robustly and directly. Of all possible DISC profiles, this style probably represents the least forthcoming in personal or emotional matters; individuals of this type tend to be remote and somewhat isolated, preferring to keep their own counsel.

Relating to Others

As we suggested above, relating to others (at least on a personal level) is not a high priority for this type of person. When communication with others is essential, it tends to be brief and succinct, focusing on practical matters. This type of individual is quite distrustful of others, and will prefer to keep facts to themselves unless absolutely necessary.

Common Abilities

This is a behavioural style motivated by achievement and efficiency, as are all styles containing a high level of Dominance. In this case, however, this is modulated by the presence of a high Compliance factor, which also lends the character an interest in detail and precision. A noticeable element of this particular type, for example, is their tendency to correct other people when they make errors, even to the point of highlighting mistakes that others might regard as trivial or unimportant.

Nonetheless, this combination of efficiency and precision can be an effective one, and their bluntly assertive style helps them to achieve difficult tasks by sheer force of character.

Motivating Factors

This is a complex character in terms of motivation. In common with all High-D's, they have a desire for personal achievement and success, but they also like to feel that they are completing assignments or projects accurately and efficiently. The naturally inexpressive style of this type can make it difficult to detect whether or not they are motivated in any particular set of circumstances.

Sub-traits

The 'Sub-traits' of this type are 'Efficiency', 'Self-motivation', 'Accuracy' and 'Sensitivity'.

Style Card

In Style Card terms, this profile is intermediate between a 'Driver' and an 'Analyst', a combined style referred to in this guide as 'Controlled'. As this name suggests, this is a style strong in 'Control', but combining elements of both 'Assertiveness' and 'Passivity'.
