He is dirtier than we thought
Dirty Dick Slater, a former pro-wrestler, just got arrested for stabbing his ex-girlfriend. While I know that the ladies will wrong you, often, it is not grounds to actually try and kill them!
Last day of the year
Last nite #2, Skadoo, and I went up to the Tivoli (aka: The Best Theatre on Earth) to see School of Rock. It was a pretty fun movie, and well worth the $3 admission. The popcorn was also great as always and served as my dinner last nite. After that, I went home and ripped [...]
They never cease to amaze me
The ladies that is. I just got a card in the mail from Kristin, who if you long time readers may recall, was a friend of mine for 12 years. Earlier this year, however, she decided to cease all communication with me for no apparent reason. She didn’t return my calls, or emails, and when [...]
To-do list
Get firewire card for laptop to replace the one I was borrowing from co-worker so I can rip cds anywhere in the house and transfer them to the Ipod Post the new pictures I received of Mr. Potatohead and his adventures. I’m sorry my oblong friend, I have not forgotten you, I’ve just been busy. [...]
Now I have seen it all
It never ceases to amaze me what people will shill on ebay. “Hey, I went to high school with these famous punk rockers, I think I’ll sell my yearbook on ebay!” It would have been more useful if the seller at least didn’t obscure the photos with those stupid guitar picks. But I guess you [...]
Monday Mission 3.52
So, what did you get for Christmas? My dad got me a supersized Best Buy gift card which netted me a Wireless G card for my laptop, a dvd burner for the desktop, the Belkin car adapter for my Ipod, and I still have juice on it! He was super generous this year. My sister [...]
Monday morning
Man was it hard to wake up today! This was the earliest I’ve been up in a week, I got used to sleeping until noon again. Last nite I had a strange dream that I went to work, and when I was leaving for the day, I forgot where I parked my car. I was [...]
Friday Five (final one of the year)
1. What was your biggest accomplishment this year? There was a few. Ending my self-imposed drinking reitrement, thus becoming more social and going out more. Going out to more shows and putting out another record (JFA/Faction split), all of these things, to me, changed my life this year for the better, and I can actually [...]
Xmas swag
Among the gifts I got this year, some highlights are: Tony Hawk Underground (THUG) for PS2! Pirates of the Carribean DVD Finding Nemo DVD When I get home, it is time to hibernate indoors with all my new entertainment!
Xmas in New England
Up at my sister’s place in MA visiting for xmas. It is like a trip back in time having to use dialup GAY OL account for net access! Oh if they’d only get a cable modem! I hit a couple record shops here yesterday but needed a lot more time to really hit them all. [...]
How big was it?
I just beat my personal best on Fish Tales, by a huge amount! I got 1.796 billion! I kicked ass! That made me feel so good that I feel like I am high! The 1 billion barrier was eluding me for such a long time and now I passed it with a vengeance.
Back home again, for now
Finally back home at least for the time being. CA was a good trip, but very busy with work. There was little free time for me this time out. I did manage to see the premier of Return of the King thanks to Thor. I met up with him and Bob after they finished seeing [...]
I’m going back to Cali! Again!
Leaving for CA again! This time for work again. In and Out burger, Pinks, and Ameoba here I come!
Friday Five
1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays? No, I hate the cold weather and I despise snow. If there was snow only on xmas day, I could live with that. I think if they had basements in CA and the cost of living was a lot less there, I’d move [...]
We Got the Neutron Bomb!
I finished The Weirdos interview and it is up on the spontaneous site. You can get to it here.
Help???
Does anyone have access to a good photocopier and can make 500 double sided copies for me on regular paper? I will reward you somehow either with a test pressing or a 4 course meal at Potbellys or something good. I need to make inserts for the 2nd pressing of the JFA/Faction 7″ that just [...]
An expensive mistake
I finally opened my letter from Southwest that had my flight info on it for xmas so I could know what days I needed to take off and I was shocked at what I read. Turned out, I messed up somehow (clicked the wrong part or something) and according to the paper, I was to [...]
The rest of the CA trip
So saturday I met up with Doug Moody of Mystic Records. We had lunch and talked for a few hours about various things, mostly the history of Mystic, punk rock, and his take on the badmouthing that he has endured over the years from bands and people he worked with in the past. He really [...]
Weirdos and Skulls pix
Here’s a couple pix from the show. All the rest will be up on the spontaneous site most likely tomorrow nite. The Skulls The Skulls Dix Denny of The Weirdos ? drummer and John Denny of The Weirdos John Denny and Cliff Roman. The Weirdos John Denny – The Weirdos
The Weirdos review
I’m back home now (actually at work as I type this, not at the Manor) and back to a normal existence for the time being. Now to wrap up the trip. Friday was The Weirdos, The Skulls, and The Diffs show at the El Rey Theatre. We got there early as I had an interview [...]
Punk Rock Heroes!
The Weirdos/The Skulls show tonite was the best show I have seen in years. Both the bands were amazing, especially The Weirdos, who despite those guys being likely in their 50s, were beyond description of their sheer greatness! I took a TON of pix, and were I not on crappy dialup, I’d post a couple [...]
It might make me sicker!
I’m sitting here at home still recovering, and my power has gone out twice so far for no apparent reason. This is not good as it cuts power to my life support systems (the TV, lava lamp, flicker lights and skull lamp). While the power has been on, I’ve been watching this stupid VH1 big [...]
