It looks like Eva Longoria is getting a divorce from her NBA star husband Tony Parker. Why you may ask? It seems he was having an inappropriate texting relationship with another woman for over a year. Sounds like something I went through recently. No picnic.
First living Medal of Honor recipient in nearly 40 years. Pretty cool.
G.O.P. Opposition Dims Hope for Arms Treaty With Russia. It's the 21st century and I feel like we're not really progressing as human beings.
The internet is being very slow today and I don't understand why. I was pulling my frickin' hair out at lunch trying to download something.
GQ names Scarlett Johanson the 2010 babe of the year. I guess I can agree with this. She is smokin' hot. My only beef is that she really didn't do anything memorable in 2010.
Cool pedal to consider.
I don't know who made this poster but they did a great job. It's got a very clean and sexy look. Great color contrasts too.
Ebay for guns. Who knew??
Just one more reason why I'll never run a marathon.
First, Rapidshare was king and then everyone mutinied and went over to Hotfile. Now uploaders are slowly gravitating towards Fileshare or Fileserve. I wish these assholes would make up their minds. I don't buying a premium subscription but I don't was to do it every six months. The only subscribed service that's been a bust so far was megaupload.
Million dollar businesses you've never heard of. Interesting stuff. I especially like the Fatheadz sunglasses because I have a fat head :(
Harry Potter stars hit the red carpet. I can't believe this movie starts next week. How about that Emma Watson? She's purdy.
One thing I've noticed about all new myspace stuff is that there is no easy way to get to this blog. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of everything lol.
I was going to post something but I got carried away with all this new myspace stuff. Oh yeah, it was a new Gibson guitar. I'm not really interested in buying one but they are at least trying to do something besides rehash another Les Paul.
Kim Kardashian shows off her new swim wear line.
Nike SB Zoom Spring 2011. Kewl.
Gwyneth Paltrow performs at the CMA's and kicks butt. I've always liked her. Here's a nice pic of her wearing her 'red carpet' gown. Very glamorous.
A group of morons are attempting to balance the federal deficit. In my opinion the old, young, sick and handicapped should be taken care of by the federal govt. Call it Socialism, call it Communism, I don't really care what you call it that's just the way I feel. Military should be streamlined and budgets hacked. The US military is the biggest nanny program that's ever been. The money that goes into it vs. what you get out of it is ridiculous. Ex. a guy on my facebook is in the Navy. You know what he does? He plays and teaches jazz guitar. That's what he's in the military to do. He's not on a boat or submarine defending the coastline. He's in the band or something. What a waste. I always liked what Donald Trump said about the govt. He said 'cut budgets by 10% across the board and just let them just deal with it'.
The Comprehensive Guide to SFW boobs. So funny.
11/09/10 - New Stephen King book comes out today, Full Dark, No Stars.
Nutrition professor loses 27lbs on Twinkie diet.
This person near Winston Salem has some cute dogs for sale (look at the faces on those bubbies). Beagles have the look and the size I'm looking for but I'm scared once you get them home they'll turn into little terrorists. Ok, I'm going home. I got a new Ipod today and I need to charge it up. It's blue. Pretty cool. My other one is in the trash after many an audiobook.
I'm playing Borderlands. This game is frickin' hard.
Reading Shantaram. It's good but I'm ready for it to be over. Too bloody long but I'm sure it will pay off in the end.
Looks like I'll be moving the blog if things don't turn around for myspace. I've already moved some of the old ones over to blogspot (mind you they were terrible) but I should probably think about moving the others if I want to save them. Sad thing is, I should already be over there blogging away. I think it's just habit to post here. No real pressure.
Cable Subscribers cutting the cord? <---this will be me very soon.
This video deserves top billing.
I found a sweet stash of Rush fonts so I made a new avatar to replace my old one.
Naomi Watts hotness is playing Valerie Plame hotness in some flick I'm probably not going to see. (I need an editor)
Style ensemble. I'll be kickin' it this fall like Marvin Gaye.
Close to finishing this little music project. I basically turned my TV and stereo into a big jukebox. The small print on the TV is a little hard to read but I think it's just me in need of an eye exam. It sounds incredible. I installed a digital soundcard in the computer and everything is controlled with a wireless mouse and keyboard. An internet connection would be nice but I'm in no hurry for that.
Gonna sell my Ibanez AS-200 (took a bunch of photos for Ebay). Sick guitar, I just never play it.
10 reasons I'm still a fat ass.
$511 million going to Afghanistan to expand US embassy: Over the last two years, the U.S. has signed contracts to expand American diplomatic facilities in Kabul and consulates in Mazar-e Sharif and Herat provinces that total $790 million, he said. The figure includes the embassy expansion, which should be completed by June 2014. Fancy terminology for military bases.
On a lighter note, here's a fun trippy thing.
Back in April of this year I had two medical procedures. The company that administered the procedures billed me under two separate accounts: 31480 and 314801 @ $125 each. I paid both bills promptly noting the account numbers in the memo. The company keeps sending me a bill for $125 saying I haven't paid for 314801 and sent it to a collections agency. Yes I have paid it you stupid fuck. You just posted the check to the wrong account. Their records show total payments of $250 to one account and $0 to the other. I have called these fools three times (or more) explaining this and they haven't done anything about it. They say they will each time but they never do. I called them again this morning and they act like it's the first time I've ever called. They see the problem but they always fail to do anything about it. These people are driving me crazy! I'm tired of all these slackers.
Good and Evo...new required reading for me.
I'm scouring the country for an 8gb 4th gen. Ipod Nano. <--no luck there. I settled for a refurbished 5th gen. for $99 from the Apple store. It has a one year warranty and comes with a new case and battery. What the heck. I saved $50 by not buying new. With a little luck it will pay off.
What the fuck has Obama done so far? Seriously, I'm not a big Obama fan but the alternatives really scare me. What do people lose sleep over? Jobs, money, bills, debt, medical care etc. Everything else is just piddly stuff to me. The job of the presidency is simply a no win situation.
I just bought a black Gibson SG. I can't wait to get it, pimp it out and then decide I don't like it <--the usual cycle of failed expectations.
Tarheels land a bad-ass.
My Ipod broke last night and it's not because I threw it across the room...well, maybe it was. I needed a new one anyway.
Celebrity Halloween costumes. I live for this crap. Kate Beckinsale (photo #9) rocks Halloween every year (bam, bam and bam). Her little red riding hood from last year blew away Kim Kardashian's version (#3). Her husband is all into it too. Kim K. is usually a big Halloween disappointment except for when she was a belly dancer. Her wonder woman was god awful with those black leggings and it should have been the bestest evs. I guess her Snow White was pretty good. Props to her. Brooke Burke has a pretty hot catwoman getup #22.
I just got back from Staples and they have the Kindle. I was this close to getting one. I downloaded a crapload of books last night so I'm ready to roll. I just don't want to pay the local sales tax. While I was there I also looked at some wireless keyboards and stuff like that for my living room jukebox project. Expensive. I saw a cool keyboard and it was $80 by itself and a dumb mouse pad was $5. They had a bunch of cool crap there. I love Staples/Office depot type joints. I think I'll go back and get the Kindle this week...or some alternative. Books a million may have a competitor worth checking out.
Celebrities with their French bulldogs. I like those dogs and the Boston terrier...two smooshed faced dogs. Baby Boston's in NC.
Les Paul about to go under the knife for a pickup change.
I think I want one of those e-readers. I have a couple of ebooks and I'm not about to read them on my computer screen. Kindle or Nook or whatever. I have no idea. They seem pricey except for the cheapest Kindle and that will still set you back $140.
Signs seen at the Sanity Rally thingie.
What you see at the gym on any given day. Noisy lifters and talkers are my pet peeves.
Unfortunately I'm the only one who got this Halloween joke.
Vintage style Star Wars posters. These are awesome. I wish I could do something like that. This one is taken straight from the 1933 Monaco Grand Prix ad. That's the only one I recognize from it's origin. The other ones probably have a basis in an some older print ad too. *This must be throwback week. First it was the comic book thing and now the Star Wars posters. Weird.
These two are currently winning Halloween. Still waiting to see what Kim Kardashian is wearing this year.
Marvel and the NBA team up to re-create some classic comic book covers. I love it. Best thing I've seen in a while. One of my favorites was the Dwight Howard version of Wolverine Limited Series #1. <--actually that's the only one I recognized because it's old school. Ok, on second thought I did recognize the Carmelo Anthony cover as X-men #138. What the hell, here's one more. This is kind of a fun scavenger hunt anyway. The Lebron James cover is from Amazing Spiderman #50.
It's always something. I swear. After a week of dead silence, the guy who won my Ebay auction finally reared his head and paid up (thank the gods). If he only knew how close I was to hiring a hitman. No seriously, he writes:
Hey - very sorry for the delay. I went through the payment steps
last weekend, but something obviously didn't work. I was on a
trip this week and my laptop died when security dropped it at
the airport. I had no idea we had a problem. My apologies. If
there are any questions, please contact me. Thanks.
Adult chocolate milk. I wonder if it tastes anything like Nestle Quik?
Halloween Hounds.
Cool coffee cups en masse.
Nike Room Socks or as I like to call them, bedroom shoes $30. I'm probably going to need these.
I just sent a note to the guy on Ebay who won my guitar and needs to pay me: "I have yet to receive payment or hear from you regarding your winning bid on the PRS Mira. Do you intend to pay for the item? Do you need more time? Are you there? Thanks." It's been close to a week since the auction ended and this goof-ball has disappeared. I'm about to go Goodfellas on this fool. The thing that pains me is that I was going to use the money to bid on another auction that was a steal but I wanted the money in hand first. Needless to say some other schmuck bought the guitar and I lost out because of timing. There's another guitar related ass I'm dealing with right now but I'm not even going to get into it right now.
Nice Natalie Wood pictorial. She was one of my favorite oldschool hotties. Elvis could have tapped that but he was all scared. Myspace doesn't like blogspot links for some reason so here is the full link if the one above doesn't work--> http://iamthechildofthemoon.blogspot.com/2010/10/brown-eyed-girl.html
I've been going to the gym on a fairly steady basis for about ten years. The sad thing is that other than the time I work out I move around about as much as Christopher Reeve. I start a typical day sitting at the office for eight hours and then go home and sit around some more or nap until I can motivate myself to go work out. After that I cook dinner, sleep and repeat the whole thing. I think I need to even things out somehow. Broaden my horizons.
Zardoz was labeled the #1 'trailer to sniff glue to' over at Maxim. <--added to Netflix instant watch list. I think Connery was trying to break from the Bond typecasting by taking the most fucked up role out there.

I think the guy who bought my guitar is going to stiff me. The auction ended four days ago and no payment has been made. Why would anybody wait so long? Whenever I win an auction I always pay quick so I can get my stuff faster. I'm want to send hate mail but I know I shouldn't...at least not yet. I'll wait until this weekend.
We just bought a new server here at the office and I'm going to take the old one home and turn it into a media computer for my living room. Should be sweet. Mostly it will play music but if I can get a web connection going it should be able to surf the web on the TV screen and play movies through Netflix. One thing I have to do is install a modern sound card(?) so I can get a digital connection to my stereo.
New Superman is young, dark and probably ghey.
The whole weekend has pretty much been a big freak out.
Lego Indiana Jones Halloween costume. Cool parents.
Brammo electric motorcycles. This could be for me.
I just had a reality check with my cable bill and it adds up to $1700 a year. That includes digital cable, DVR, HD package and roadrunner. Hmmm. I really think I need to make some changes here because that is ridiculous and it's really cutting into my guitar budget lol. Seriously, I don't even watch TV. I think roadrunner and basic cable is all I need. I wonder how much that would make the bill go down? You would think RR would be around $50 tops and basic cable would be $20? That would be $840 a year saving $860. Sheesh! This digital shite is killing me!
Got a few bids on my guitar....stoked.
Marijuana in America. Speaking of, here's a huge 105 ton bust in Tijuana, the biggest in Mexican history.
GunBlood...hard game but I did manage to finish all 9 levels (eventually). What can I say, I got hot.
Out of print book cover t-shirts. Make mine Catcher in the Rye.
Here's a classic Chuck move that I've done on many occasion including tonight--> get all dressed up to go to the gym and workout, drink some coffee to get fired up and then decide not to go.
PRS Heaven vs. Les Paul Heaven
Flintstone Gummies. I wonder if you can OD on these things because I'm eating four or five a day. They're like candy.
Interesting article on the trade relationship between the US and China. It pretty much says we're all going to hell in a hand basket if current trends continue. Politicians need to throw free trade out the window and even the playing field.
I'm going to sell my Mira. Nice guitar but just not for me. When I first got it I didn't like it so I packed it up and stored it away. I played it again today and I still don't like it. Dislike has been confirmed.
Amazon customers have chosen Ken Follet's new book as a sounding board to record complaints against Amazon pricing (primarily the Kindle pricing of $20). How about Audible's audiobook pricing of $30? Just as bad IMO. The two mediums with the lowest overhead are priced the highest. What kind of Bizzaro world did I wake up in the morning?
Obama wants to end tax breaks to stop overseas hiring. <---Finally someone gets it. What is the problem? 1. We need jobs here at home and 2. it's too expensive for companies to set up shop here when it's cheaper to manufacture overseas. Well, you can sit around like we've been doing and let nature takes it's course or govt. can introduce legislation to tip the scale making it more attractive to do business here.
Proposition 19 shaping up to be a huge battle between the Federal government and the state of California. Of course as soon as Prop. 19 passes I will be moving to Calif. No, really.
My addiction to audiobooks is interfering with my desire to listen to new music.
If you want to be cool like the Chilean miners then pick yourself up a pair of these Oakley Radars.
Keith Richard's autobiography, Life, drops on 10/26. Yeah, I'm probably gonna need that.
Finally getting something done I would consider significant...even though the comic book thing was pretty cool.
I'm thinking Boston Terrier.
Fruity Blergs are my favorite.
Behind the scenes Empire Strikes Back photos via Vanity Fair.
I found my old beat up copy. Seriously, I think I need lipo. I feel like a fat frog.
New Volkswagen Jetta looks nice.
I airbrushed the main characters a bit and I think it looks a lot better. (L-->R= Original, First Draft, Finished)
Kim Kardashian is naked in some magazine I've never heard of. They must have paid her a ton. Jeez, her ass is frickin' hyooojj...and I mean that in a good way.
I was at Target last night looking at Ipods and I thought $149 seemed a little high for the old Nano model but I just looked on Amazon and $149 seems ok. Maybe I should have bought one. Another thing I noticed at Target was the price of Milk. It was low. I saw soymilk for $2.39 and it's $3 at Wal-doggie. Another thing I saw last night were Ipads and they seemed ridiculously expensive.
I did a re-color of Fantastic Four #112, most notably making the Hulk his classic gray (vs. original). It needs airbrushing but I went with solids just to get it over with quick.
Esquire magazine names Minka Kelly as the sexiest woman alive. First of all, who the eff is Minka Kelly? She is very pretty but to me she just doesn't have this big aura of sexiness that I demand when I think of 'the sexiest woman alive'. Hard to explain. She just ain't the sexiest woman alive. She reminds me of the girl on Sex and the City. The prudish girl? Yeah, Kristin Davis. Had to look it up. I'll tell you who looks like her but is way sexier to me...Leighton Meester. Word. 'Scuse me while I eat this ice cream cone. <---now that is sexy! Blake Lively, the blonde, could easily be the sexiest woman alive. Minka Kelly dates Derrick Jeter so I'm pretty sure it's some kind of New York Yankees conspiracy. And another thing, I read all the Hollywood webzines and there is no buzz on Minka Kelly. Kelly Brook? Buzz. Alessandra Ambrosio? Buzz. Katy Perry? Buzz. Kim Kardashian? Buzz. End. *after sleeping on it and seeing more picture I'm thinking she may be the sexiest woman alive ahhaha. It seems the public has a different opinion. I like Brooklyn Decker too but I thought I saw a few photos of her where she had kind of a man face. Oh well, who cares. Her body cannot be ignored.
I just broke a pair of heaphones and I have a horrible headache.
I just read an article on acid reflux and it scared me to death. I think I need to make some changes. Can you explain the “silent” symptoms people can get?Silent, or atypical, acid reflux can cause symptoms such ascoughing (including a dry cough), chronic throat clearing, and the sensation of having something stuck in your throat. <--me. According to this list, you can't eat anything. I need to get it together and stop being a big fat pig. Of course I woke up this morning and had my usual cereal and of coffee...both stomach rotters lol.
Mark Ryden...he got weird game but game is game.
The plan was to workout and then go to the grocery store but right now it looks like I'll be lucky to workout. I drank some coffee to get pumped up but now I have a headache.
Train vector seems a little iffy right now but hopefully things will turn around. Two middle lights look like speakers lol.
I just bought some stock in Sirius Xm radio. It's kind of a dud stock but I'm taking a chance it will pop in the future (please pop, you bastard). I don't like my chances but you never know.
Dogs in sweaters.
Celebs turning 40 this year. I can hang with those goofballs.
The blog was mysteriously changed to preferred again. *fixed.
My next door neighbor's house was broken into over the weekend. Real nice. Now I have to worry about some weirdo poking around and checking doorknobs at all hours of the night. Repairing my alarm system is now priority one. This place is a thieves wet dream. Just kidding. It's not. I don't have anything a thief would want. Seriously.
I've been trainspotting most of the afternoon. My favorite train is the Santa Fe F7.
The 60 best breasts of all time contest. The voting was a close race between Diora Baird (my vote), Keeley Hazzell and Katy Perry. Yes, I love Katy Perry and she's #1 but I've never actually seen her breasts. Cleavage? Yes, in spades. A lot of the women in this contest are only cleavage models. Katie Holmes? Errr, no. The contest seems put together by a group of 20 year olds who threw in a couple of 80's/70's models to make it seem like it wasn't made by a group of 20 year olds. Eva Mendes? Trust me, I love Eva but I think she's an A cup at best. I think someone was mistaking her ass for her breasts. Common mistake. And who is Emmanuelle Chriqui? Sorry I don't watch stupid Entourage.
I added some electrical tape to strengthen the joint on my new headphones. I think I put on too much lol. I want them to LAST damnit.
Single pickup Les Paul's. Very interesting but not for me.
I ripped off my profile background from somebody. Can't remember who. I like it.
I was just checking out some the new PRS guitars on their site and they look sweet! The most interesting to me is the SC58 which is basically a Les Paul rip off but who cares? All guitar makers do it. Show me a guitar company that doesn't make a Strat or Les Paul copy and I'll show you a guitar company that's going out of business. Oh well, back to PRS. The new guitars look great but a couple of them look just the same as other models. For instance, the new DC3 seems to carry the exact same specs as the just released last year 305. Another too close for comfort model is the new NF3. It shares practically the same specs as the swamp ash special. Yeah, there's a couple of differences like body wood here or a pickguard there but they're more or less rehashed older models. Oh well, I'm not going to pick on them too much. I haven't seen any prices yet but I'm sure they'll be through the roof. Forum chatter on the SC58.
I've always liked Dana Delaney. She seems pretty milfy.
I feel bad and want to go home. *I went home at lunch and tried to sleep but couldn't. I had the chills and a pounding headache. Finally around 5:00pm my chills ended and I got out of bed to take some aspirin and eat a sandwich. Back to bed where I slept until...I don't know.
I can't help it if I'm in love with Nike skate shoes. They are so comfortable and the styling is timeless.
I don't ride but if I did it would probably go a little like this.
Pink pedals a sweet looking cruiser while giving the finger. I don't think I've ever mentioned this but I can't stand it when people give the finger while getting their picture taken. So dumb.
Star Wars poster made in classic wrestling/boxing style. Wish I had made it. Too bad I have no good ideas right now.
Gotta love those ole Grateful Dead glory days. Pictured here is Jerry with his Gibson SG and Fender Twin. In my opinion, that's when he sounded the best. Based on the links, it would be a pretty expensive rig to duplicate these days.
X-Marks will shut down operation in Jan. '10. This blows because it was one of my favorite Firefox add-ons. It kept my favorites/passwords synced on all three of my computers (laptop, desktop and work).
Google has it's own URL shortener. I rarely use these things but they do come in handy sometimes. *saved to favorites.
Some Nike throwbacks vs. K-Swiss. I like that old-school style. Converse are using themes to differentiate their products. I wouldn't be caught dead in those but I still like them (Superman's are kinda tight). I've also seen Converse use rock band themes, Dr. Seuss and I think I saw Peanuts too. I like my Kenny Anderson's.
It's too bad I don't have 150k lying around but if I did...Licensed Batmobile.
Pizza Cats.
I just ordered two pairs of headphones from Amazon. I'm going to find a pair I like even if it kills me.
Stress is a common cause of itch. Scalp, face, and neck are often affected. <---I saw this on a site somewhere. I think I'm stressed out but I don't know how to get rid of it. I'm exercising but I think I need to take up yoga or meditation(?). I'm at my wits end stressing over stress.
17 Dead Centerfolds - Kinda sad about miss July '70 because she's my birth month. That's the only reason I posted this. Hate to see Debbie Boostrom gone too. I used to like me some DB.
Bon Appetit readers pick the best chocolate chip cookie. I'm very interested in this as chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. I may look into it and get some shipped in for taste testing. Speaking on this subject, I feel like getting my bake-on but I don't have the tools: no mixer, no flour, no cookie sheet, no nothing. I need the baking essentials. I don't even have a melon-baller but I do have a cool oven mitt.
Kim Kardashian won Oktoberfest (Hayden Panatierre was second). I think it's funny how everyone at Oktoberfest carries around those humongous mugs. I mean where do they get them all? They must have them stacked to the roof in a back room somewhere.
Katy Perry got her song banned from Sesame Street. Hmm, I wonder why?.
Great work here, but very strange.
Signbot.
We just bought a new server here at the office and I'm going to take the old one home and turn it into a media computer for my living room. Should be sweet. Mostly it will play music but if I can get a web connection going it should be able to surf the web on the TV screen and play movies through Netflix. One thing I have to do is install a modern sound card(?) so I can get a digital connection to my stereo.
New Superman is young, dark and probably ghey.
The whole weekend has pretty much been a big freak out.
Lego Indiana Jones Halloween costume. Cool parents.
Brammo electric motorcycles. This could be for me.
I just had a reality check with my cable bill and it adds up to $1700 a year. That includes digital cable, DVR, HD package and roadrunner. Hmmm. I really think I need to make some changes here because that is ridiculous and it's really cutting into my guitar budget lol. Seriously, I don't even watch TV. I think roadrunner and basic cable is all I need. I wonder how much that would make the bill go down? You would think RR would be around $50 tops and basic cable would be $20? That would be $840 a year saving $860. Sheesh! This digital shite is killing me!
Got a few bids on my guitar....stoked.
Marijuana in America. Speaking of, here's a huge 105 ton bust in Tijuana, the biggest in Mexican history.
GunBlood...hard game but I did manage to finish all 9 levels (eventually). What can I say, I got hot.
Out of print book cover t-shirts. Make mine Catcher in the Rye.
Here's a classic Chuck move that I've done on many occasion including tonight--> get all dressed up to go to the gym and workout, drink some coffee to get fired up and then decide not to go.
PRS Heaven vs. Les Paul Heaven
Flintstone Gummies. I wonder if you can OD on these things because I'm eating four or five a day. They're like candy.
Interesting article on the trade relationship between the US and China. It pretty much says we're all going to hell in a hand basket if current trends continue. Politicians need to throw free trade out the window and even the playing field.
I'm going to sell my Mira. Nice guitar but just not for me. When I first got it I didn't like it so I packed it up and stored it away. I played it again today and I still don't like it. Dislike has been confirmed.
Amazon customers have chosen Ken Follet's new book as a sounding board to record complaints against Amazon pricing (primarily the Kindle pricing of $20). How about Audible's audiobook pricing of $30? Just as bad IMO. The two mediums with the lowest overhead are priced the highest. What kind of Bizzaro world did I wake up in the morning?
Obama wants to end tax breaks to stop overseas hiring. <---Finally someone gets it. What is the problem? 1. We need jobs here at home and 2. it's too expensive for companies to set up shop here when it's cheaper to manufacture overseas. Well, you can sit around like we've been doing and let nature takes it's course or govt. can introduce legislation to tip the scale making it more attractive to do business here.
Proposition 19 shaping up to be a huge battle between the Federal government and the state of California. Of course as soon as Prop. 19 passes I will be moving to Calif. No, really.
My addiction to audiobooks is interfering with my desire to listen to new music.
If you want to be cool like the Chilean miners then pick yourself up a pair of these Oakley Radars.
Keith Richard's autobiography, Life, drops on 10/26. Yeah, I'm probably gonna need that.
Finally getting something done I would consider significant...even though the comic book thing was pretty cool.
I'm thinking Boston Terrier.
Fruity Blergs are my favorite.
Behind the scenes Empire Strikes Back photos via Vanity Fair.
I found my old beat up copy. Seriously, I think I need lipo. I feel like a fat frog.
New Volkswagen Jetta looks nice.
I airbrushed the main characters a bit and I think it looks a lot better. (L-->R= Original, First Draft, Finished)
Kim Kardashian is naked in some magazine I've never heard of. They must have paid her a ton. Jeez, her ass is frickin' hyooojj...and I mean that in a good way.
I was at Target last night looking at Ipods and I thought $149 seemed a little high for the old Nano model but I just looked on Amazon and $149 seems ok. Maybe I should have bought one. Another thing I noticed at Target was the price of Milk. It was low. I saw soymilk for $2.39 and it's $3 at Wal-doggie. Another thing I saw last night were Ipads and they seemed ridiculously expensive.
I did a re-color of Fantastic Four #112, most notably making the Hulk his classic gray (vs. original). It needs airbrushing but I went with solids just to get it over with quick.
Esquire magazine names Minka Kelly as the sexiest woman alive. First of all, who the eff is Minka Kelly? She is very pretty but to me she just doesn't have this big aura of sexiness that I demand when I think of 'the sexiest woman alive'. Hard to explain. She just ain't the sexiest woman alive. She reminds me of the girl on Sex and the City. The prudish girl? Yeah, Kristin Davis. Had to look it up. I'll tell you who looks like her but is way sexier to me...Leighton Meester. Word. 'Scuse me while I eat this ice cream cone. <---now that is sexy! Blake Lively, the blonde, could easily be the sexiest woman alive. Minka Kelly dates Derrick Jeter so I'm pretty sure it's some kind of New York Yankees conspiracy. And another thing, I read all the Hollywood webzines and there is no buzz on Minka Kelly. Kelly Brook? Buzz. Alessandra Ambrosio? Buzz. Katy Perry? Buzz. Kim Kardashian? Buzz. End. *after sleeping on it and seeing more picture I'm thinking she may be the sexiest woman alive ahhaha. It seems the public has a different opinion. I like Brooklyn Decker too but I thought I saw a few photos of her where she had kind of a man face. Oh well, who cares. Her body cannot be ignored.
I just broke a pair of heaphones and I have a horrible headache.
I just read an article on acid reflux and it scared me to death. I think I need to make some changes. Can you explain the “silent” symptoms people can get?Silent, or atypical, acid reflux can cause symptoms such as
Mark Ryden...he got weird game but game is game.

Heads exploding and Julianne Moore crying. I think she should receive and honorary Oscar just for crying, no seriously.
A mouse with a number pad on it? This is the stuff accountants dream of.
I hate to say it but I'm officially depressed.
Netflix will soon have every single episode of SNL available for instant streaming. Shwiinnggg!!
I just finished reading the Alice in Wonderland books and I thought they were both terrible lol. It's too 'out there' for kids and too 'out there' for adults. The only thing good to come out of the whole thing is cool art.
I've been taking Protonix for acid reflux and I'm convinced it's the cause of my severe itching. It's mostly on my scalp, hairline and the back of my neck. The medication is the only thing new that's been introduced into my system so I'm going to stop taking it for a while and see what happens. I would rather have my stomach rot from the inside than deal with this itch any longer. It's not natural!
Unwritten rules regarding public transportation. I never break those rules because I'm not an asshole.
Love this album cover (I could've done that). Here's where a fan takes it a little too far.
After spending most of the weekend listening to classical music, I managed to learn a few things about the genre as it pertains to me.
1. I don't really like solo piano. Maybe it will grow on me but right now it's sound is way too tinny and sharp like an ice pick. I like the cello which is way more laid back.
2. I do like big orchestras, the cello (mentioned above), opera and these oldschool monkish chant things are pretty cool.
Sarah Shourd, who was recently freed after spending 13 months in an Iranian prison, looks eerily like an ex-girlfriend of mine.
A couple of cool videos of a guy playing the exact model guitar I got for my 40th birthday. Only 25 were made so it makes me wonder if the guy is playing mine (I got #19).
After watching the first few minutes of the movie Vanilla Sky, I noticed I had already seen its foreign equivalent, Abre los ojos. Kinda disappointed considering I got all psyched to see a cool flick and all. The movie was the same thing scene for scene. Penelope Cruz played the same character in both versions.
Nike old school kicks, canvas and leather.
Adidas Boba Fetts...so hot.
I started my classical music collection this week even though I don't really listen to classical music (lol). One thing I've noticed so far is the whole classical music file organization thing. It's so much more complicated than rock and roll or jazz. In rock music, the only thing you really have to deal with is the band name, the name of the album and the name of the tracks. Things like that are easy to enter in a labeling program like TagScanner, which is the one I use but a lot of people use MP3Tag. In classical music you have the name of the album, the name of the composer, the name of the conductor, the name of the performers in an opera and the name of a symphony.
Flash wobbly thing.

I just had a nightmare. I was in New York with friends and got lost. I ended up as a third wheel for Kim Kardashian and her boyfriend. They were about to break up so I thought I had a chance with her lol. We went to dinner and then a party which was both filmed for her show. The boyfriend eventually left and I got all excited but you could tell she was missing him and could care less for me. The boyfriend eventually came back and I think they had makeup sex. Feeling dejected, I left and ran into two friends who I hadn't seen in twenty years. They were both no less than ten feet tall. We talked about their respected growth spurts and I got one of those doctor's office scales so I could measure their height. I found a ladder and measured their heights which was 6'8" and 7'. They sure as hell looked a lot taller than they measured. Later, I walked in front of a department store and cops were suddenly everywhere and told me to GET DOWN. I laid down on the ground and a woman walked out of the store. The cops started yelling at her, a warning shot was fired and the lady threw up her hands and dropped a light bulb which she and had stolen. It seemed like a lot of drama for just a light bulb and I told a cop I would have bought it for her if it would have prevented all this trouble. Next, while trying to find my way back to the hotel, I turned a corner and saw a convertible limousine carrying a monster and a few other people. Everyone was looking at me and telling me to be quiet so I asked what was going on. You would think I had shot someone's dog because everyone freaked out. It seems that I had accidentally walked onto a movie set and ruined an important scene. Oh well, I left that and found my way back to the hotel. It was nighttime and my travel companions had already checked out and caught the plane back home. I still had my room key so I went in and looked around. No note, no nothing. Clothes and luggage were there but they werent' mine or my friends. I had no room and I had missed my flight. Thankfully, I woke up.
David Beckham went on a bike with his kids this weekend. I love his all black cruiser. Here's another pic of him on some other badass bike.
I just bought a 2TB external hard drive to store all my jams. My 1TB was juuuuust about full. Now I have the big daddy 2TB as a base unit and two 1TB's for backup. Yeah, it's kind of confusing. On impulse, I bought a pair of Skullcandy Smokin' Buds. They're ok, I guess, but I can't recommend them. I like for my in-ear headphones to fit as tight as a cork in a wine bottle. That way it cancels a lot of outside noise and I don't have to listen to all garbage they play at the gym. These just kind of float in your year not really forming a good seal.
Time: best friend or worst enemy? They either hold it together pretty well or turn into trolls. Juliette Binoche, love her. They should have used Victoria Principal, who was a personal favorite until time and bad plastic surgery ravaged her face. Also in that boat would be my imaginary lady friend Jessica Lange.
It's unfortunate we live in a world of gross stereotyping as not all Americans are Koran burning Terry Jones' and not all Muslims are Muhammad Attas. Why is it that a vile acts perpetrated by small groups of whack jobs always seem to punish the moderates? For years, whites railed against blacks and then it was the straights against the gays and now it seems the Islamic community is the new whipping boy (or let's just say people of middle eastern decent).
The cover for Brandon Sanderson's new book, The Way of Kings, broken down. I can't wait to read this (1400 pages? *gasp). Sanderson is bad-ass.
My Monster Lil' Jamz just died and I've only had them for five months *sigh. I loved them when they actually worked. Moral to the story? Don't buy expensive headphones. Bose, Sennheiser and Monster: they all suck. I think I'm going to try and fix them myself. That way I can shorten the cord a few inches and maybe toughen up the weak connection at the same time. I can do this.
So much stuff to write about, so little time.
The selection of streaming movies at Netflix have gotten a lot better lately.
Don Felder (Eagles) replica Les Paul for sale at Wildwood Guitars for $10,000. I like guitars like the next guy but come on. That is ridiculous. There's a joke that circulates whenever an overpriced item like this comes up. It's goes something like 'guitars like this only hang in doctor's offices'. I think I saw a nice looking Harley the other day for about 7grand (geez, Harley website is slow).
I guess I'll call it finished.
Presidential comedy.
New iPod lineup looks pretty crazy. The Nano is now Shuffle-Touch-ish....getting closer to my design.
This Plants vs Zombies configuration yielded 26 flags in survival: endless without kernal-pults. I'm shocked it held together for so long but it finally fell apart thanks to a bombardment by those damn football players.
Bitches Brew brew...yeah, I'm going to need that.
2012 Shelby Cobra looks sweeeeet...almost like the mist-mobile.
US plans long term stay in Afghanistan? $100 million Air base investments point to yes.
Album Art Exchange...*bookmarks.
New additions to the music collection: Sinatra's 16 disc 'Silver Box' and Devo's 'this is the DEVO box' 7 disc set. These should keep me busy for a while.
I guess I'll be shopping for a new external hard drive because these two are just about full. One is just a backup of the other so I'm not exactly sure how I'm going to work it all out. I'm thinking a two terabyte main and use the two single terabytes I already have as split backups. One will have all audiobooks and music from A-J and the other will have music K-Z (sound good to me).
I don't even know who this chick is (probably on Glee lol) but she's riding a cruiser and that makes her cool in my book. Basket, fenders, single speed, Chuck Taylor's and a thumb bell. It's all good. I was right about the Glee thing, haaha. Lucky guess. She just looks Glee-ish.
I hate it when Yahoo posts an article with no picture that really needs one for it to be interesting. Like this one: 600lb. Thai Woman Leaves House After 3 Years. Nice uplifting story, I guess, but dammit I want to see a picture of a 600lb Thai woman. Without the picture the story just doesn't have much...hmmm.....grab, if you know what I mean. Back to work.
Current events:
Workouts are going great.
Sleep, not so great.
Money, not so great lol.
Happiness, meh.
New haircut, pretty cool.
I saw my reflection in the mirror the other day at the gym and I swear I had the whole Tom Arnold thing going on...not too gooood!
Sarah Palin autographed X-box on Ebay. Starting price a million dollars?? Seems kinda high, eh? I think I've seen Van Gogh's for less. Try a few hundred for the X-Box and a few hundred for the autograph. If you get a grand, consider yourself lucky.
Nine was a pretty bad movie (based on the broadway play that was based on the Felini flick 8 1/2) but Penelope Cruz's little song and dance number almost made it worth the price of admission...almost. *Also pictured is my Plants vs. Zombies strategy for level 5-9. Use garlic to direct the two outer lanes inward making it a 3 lane war zone with the Gatling guns mowing everyone down lol. This person on Youtube used a common strategy using blockers. Funny, they almost lose it at the very end.
Chunky Fudge Cookies...I want that soooo bad. I'm such a sucker for a good cookie.
Quaker Oatmeal Squares is #1. Actually, I love QOS's and always keep a box in my cupboard but I have to admit they need a little help. The beauty of QOS's is that it goes with any sweet cereal and it works best in 3rds. For example, this mornings mix is 2/3's QOS's and 1/3 Fruity Pebbles.
Loudness Wars.
Another mole is dead. How many are there??!! Seriously.
Today I received my navy Air Jordan lows. Shoes are comfy and have a neutral color that goes with most of my gym attire, ***1/2. Sneaker news likened them to a NY Yankees colorway. I never thought of it that way but now that they mention it.
This is why you're huge. Yummy.
Kristen Bell's beauty tips in Shape magazine. She seems like a pretty hardcore health nut, not that there's anything wrong with that. It does a body good.
Gunporn. <--feel like I've posted that before. Oh well.
The basic golf swing. The VHS classics.
US announces last combat brigade heads home when all they've done is switched around the titles. "Officials have been pretty straightforward about what really happened, not that it has been picked up by the media, which has preferred the more pleasant narrative of a decisive military victory. Instead, the US simply “redefined” the vast majority of its combat troops as “transitional troops,” then removed a brigade that they didn’t relabel, so they could claim that was the “last one.”" 50,000 troops still remain.
After Megan Fox borrows clothes from her stepson, the world is somehow a better place.
John exaggerated a bit in a recent interview but he hit on a subject that is certainly debatable, whether the internet has destroyed the music business. I guess in many ways it has destroyed the 'traditional' music business but there is still money to be made if you're willing to work. Musicians need to write great material first and then you need to go out and perform live to make your money. It's an act or a show just like the circus or a Broadway play. You can no longer depend on a completed record as your quick path to early retirement (unless you're Eminem). You've got to take your dog and pony show to the masses because while piracy is rampant they haven't yet figured out a way to steal a live experience. Side note: I think I remember BB King on the Letterman show saying he still worked roughly 300+ shows a year. Now that's working for your money.
I've put it upon myself to find the perfect coffee cup. So far I found this one from H for Hannah's Hedy collection (bowls look nice too ;-)). I like the 'roundness' of it and the closed in top. The handle could be an issue. Bone china @ $40ea. As time goes by I will try to list other potential candidates and list some criteria I'm looking for in 'the perfect coffee cup'.
Powerful people who don't use cell phones. I know I've covered this before so I won't get into it other than to say while I was at the gym last night I saw one guy on an ab machine texting and another guy on a bicep machine talking on his phone. Maybe they were talking to each other.
Converse Kenny Anderson skate shoe. It's like a Chuck Taylor with padding. Nice. I also like how the toe isn't white.
BMW Bikes.
China has both the #2 economy and a dope ass water park.
I've had a headache all day and playing lots of nook didn't help. Best so far, 26,960 (23 shots, made 19). I seem to be averaging around 11,000 so I'm not really sure where the 26,000 came from. Right now I'm going to work out, headache and all. I think it's going to be another cardio night as I don't think my head could stand the strain of lifting something heavy. It might explode or something...just got 32,815. I think the trick is to bang in a lot of balls using combos and hitting in the right pockets all while going at breakneck speed.
Paint thingie was fun for about 5 mins.
X-Wing mailbox. Sure wish I had one of those.
50 Scariest movies of all time. I may argue with the order but all in all not a bad list. What I don't understand is why all these web lists these days are one entry per page and you have to click an arrow to go to the next one. I can't stand that. It's so slow and tedious. Whenever I see that particular list layout it makes me NOT want to look at it. It must have something to do with advertising dollars and page hits (or just shitty design trends). If you list everything on one page then you only get one hit and a nickel. If you get 50 page hits then you get 50 nickels. Oh well, I don't know if that's true but it just seems like terrible design to me. Here's how I like my lists. I like me some scrolling bitches.
TV's top earners. I had no idea they were making so much jack. Judge Judy is killin' it.
I'm not really sure how many Kind of Blue's it's going to take to satisfy me but right now I have four. <--all varying degrees of the same thing lol.
Things to do:
Yardwork (check)
Laundry
Weedeater Fix
Workout
Appt. with eye Dr.
My lossless John Coltrane collection is coming along nicely (see screenshot) with the most recent addition being the 4-disc Live in Japan. Pretty cool.
The women of Sturgis: the good, the bad and yes, the ugly. I usually find that most of the hot women at these biker rallies are working at a manufacturers booth trying to sell something rather than being there of their own free will.
A mouse with a number pad on it? This is the stuff accountants dream of.
I hate to say it but I'm officially depressed.
Netflix will soon have every single episode of SNL available for instant streaming. Shwiinnggg!!
I just finished reading the Alice in Wonderland books and I thought they were both terrible lol. It's too 'out there' for kids and too 'out there' for adults. The only thing good to come out of the whole thing is cool art.
I've been taking Protonix for acid reflux and I'm convinced it's the cause of my severe itching. It's mostly on my scalp, hairline and the back of my neck. The medication is the only thing new that's been introduced into my system so I'm going to stop taking it for a while and see what happens. I would rather have my stomach rot from the inside than deal with this itch any longer. It's not natural!
Unwritten rules regarding public transportation. I never break those rules because I'm not an asshole.
Love this album cover (I could've done that). Here's where a fan takes it a little too far.
After spending most of the weekend listening to classical music, I managed to learn a few things about the genre as it pertains to me.
1. I don't really like solo piano. Maybe it will grow on me but right now it's sound is way too tinny and sharp like an ice pick. I like the cello which is way more laid back.
2. I do like big orchestras, the cello (mentioned above), opera and these oldschool monkish chant things are pretty cool.
Sarah Shourd, who was recently freed after spending 13 months in an Iranian prison, looks eerily like an ex-girlfriend of mine.
A couple of cool videos of a guy playing the exact model guitar I got for my 40th birthday. Only 25 were made so it makes me wonder if the guy is playing mine (I got #19).
After watching the first few minutes of the movie Vanilla Sky, I noticed I had already seen its foreign equivalent, Abre los ojos. Kinda disappointed considering I got all psyched to see a cool flick and all. The movie was the same thing scene for scene. Penelope Cruz played the same character in both versions.
Nike old school kicks, canvas and leather.
Adidas Boba Fetts...so hot.
I started my classical music collection this week even though I don't really listen to classical music (lol). One thing I've noticed so far is the whole classical music file organization thing. It's so much more complicated than rock and roll or jazz. In rock music, the only thing you really have to deal with is the band name, the name of the album and the name of the tracks. Things like that are easy to enter in a labeling program like TagScanner, which is the one I use but a lot of people use MP3Tag. In classical music you have the name of the album, the name of the composer, the name of the conductor, the name of the performers in an opera and the name of a symphony.
Flash wobbly thing.

Old and busted: High Fructose Corn Syrup. New Hotness: Corn Sugar.
I just had a nightmare. I was in New York with friends and got lost. I ended up as a third wheel for Kim Kardashian and her boyfriend. They were about to break up so I thought I had a chance with her lol. We went to dinner and then a party which was both filmed for her show. The boyfriend eventually left and I got all excited but you could tell she was missing him and could care less for me. The boyfriend eventually came back and I think they had makeup sex. Feeling dejected, I left and ran into two friends who I hadn't seen in twenty years. They were both no less than ten feet tall. We talked about their respected growth spurts and I got one of those doctor's office scales so I could measure their height. I found a ladder and measured their heights which was 6'8" and 7'. They sure as hell looked a lot taller than they measured. Later, I walked in front of a department store and cops were suddenly everywhere and told me to GET DOWN. I laid down on the ground and a woman walked out of the store. The cops started yelling at her, a warning shot was fired and the lady threw up her hands and dropped a light bulb which she and had stolen. It seemed like a lot of drama for just a light bulb and I told a cop I would have bought it for her if it would have prevented all this trouble. Next, while trying to find my way back to the hotel, I turned a corner and saw a convertible limousine carrying a monster and a few other people. Everyone was looking at me and telling me to be quiet so I asked what was going on. You would think I had shot someone's dog because everyone freaked out. It seems that I had accidentally walked onto a movie set and ruined an important scene. Oh well, I left that and found my way back to the hotel. It was nighttime and my travel companions had already checked out and caught the plane back home. I still had my room key so I went in and looked around. No note, no nothing. Clothes and luggage were there but they werent' mine or my friends. I had no room and I had missed my flight. Thankfully, I woke up.
David Beckham went on a bike with his kids this weekend. I love his all black cruiser. Here's another pic of him on some other badass bike.
I just bought a 2TB external hard drive to store all my jams. My 1TB was juuuuust about full. Now I have the big daddy 2TB as a base unit and two 1TB's for backup. Yeah, it's kind of confusing. On impulse, I bought a pair of Skullcandy Smokin' Buds. They're ok, I guess, but I can't recommend them. I like for my in-ear headphones to fit as tight as a cork in a wine bottle. That way it cancels a lot of outside noise and I don't have to listen to all garbage they play at the gym. These just kind of float in your year not really forming a good seal.
Time: best friend or worst enemy? They either hold it together pretty well or turn into trolls. Juliette Binoche, love her. They should have used Victoria Principal, who was a personal favorite until time and bad plastic surgery ravaged her face. Also in that boat would be my imaginary lady friend Jessica Lange.
It's unfortunate we live in a world of gross stereotyping as not all Americans are Koran burning Terry Jones' and not all Muslims are Muhammad Attas. Why is it that a vile acts perpetrated by small groups of whack jobs always seem to punish the moderates? For years, whites railed against blacks and then it was the straights against the gays and now it seems the Islamic community is the new whipping boy (or let's just say people of middle eastern decent).
The cover for Brandon Sanderson's new book, The Way of Kings, broken down. I can't wait to read this (1400 pages? *gasp). Sanderson is bad-ass.
My Monster Lil' Jamz just died and I've only had them for five months *sigh. I loved them when they actually worked. Moral to the story? Don't buy expensive headphones. Bose, Sennheiser and Monster: they all suck. I think I'm going to try and fix them myself. That way I can shorten the cord a few inches and maybe toughen up the weak connection at the same time. I can do this.
So much stuff to write about, so little time.
The selection of streaming movies at Netflix have gotten a lot better lately.
Don Felder (Eagles) replica Les Paul for sale at Wildwood Guitars for $10,000. I like guitars like the next guy but come on. That is ridiculous. There's a joke that circulates whenever an overpriced item like this comes up. It's goes something like 'guitars like this only hang in doctor's offices'. I think I saw a nice looking Harley the other day for about 7grand (geez, Harley website is slow).
I guess I'll call it finished.
Presidential comedy.
New iPod lineup looks pretty crazy. The Nano is now Shuffle-Touch-ish....getting closer to my design.
This Plants vs Zombies configuration yielded 26 flags in survival: endless without kernal-pults. I'm shocked it held together for so long but it finally fell apart thanks to a bombardment by those damn football players.
Bitches Brew brew...yeah, I'm going to need that.
2012 Shelby Cobra looks sweeeeet...almost like the mist-mobile.
US plans long term stay in Afghanistan? $100 million Air base investments point to yes.
Album Art Exchange...*bookmarks.
New additions to the music collection: Sinatra's 16 disc 'Silver Box' and Devo's 'this is the DEVO box' 7 disc set. These should keep me busy for a while.
I guess I'll be shopping for a new external hard drive because these two are just about full. One is just a backup of the other so I'm not exactly sure how I'm going to work it all out. I'm thinking a two terabyte main and use the two single terabytes I already have as split backups. One will have all audiobooks and music from A-J and the other will have music K-Z (sound good to me).
I don't even know who this chick is (probably on Glee lol) but she's riding a cruiser and that makes her cool in my book. Basket, fenders, single speed, Chuck Taylor's and a thumb bell. It's all good. I was right about the Glee thing, haaha. Lucky guess. She just looks Glee-ish.
I hate it when Yahoo posts an article with no picture that really needs one for it to be interesting. Like this one: 600lb. Thai Woman Leaves House After 3 Years. Nice uplifting story, I guess, but dammit I want to see a picture of a 600lb Thai woman. Without the picture the story just doesn't have much...hmmm.....grab, if you know what I mean. Back to work.
Current events:
Workouts are going great.
Sleep, not so great.
Money, not so great lol.
Happiness, meh.
New haircut, pretty cool.
I saw my reflection in the mirror the other day at the gym and I swear I had the whole Tom Arnold thing going on...not too gooood!
Sarah Palin autographed X-box on Ebay. Starting price a million dollars?? Seems kinda high, eh? I think I've seen Van Gogh's for less. Try a few hundred for the X-Box and a few hundred for the autograph. If you get a grand, consider yourself lucky.
Nine was a pretty bad movie (based on the broadway play that was based on the Felini flick 8 1/2) but Penelope Cruz's little song and dance number almost made it worth the price of admission...almost. *Also pictured is my Plants vs. Zombies strategy for level 5-9. Use garlic to direct the two outer lanes inward making it a 3 lane war zone with the Gatling guns mowing everyone down lol. This person on Youtube used a common strategy using blockers. Funny, they almost lose it at the very end.
Chunky Fudge Cookies...I want that soooo bad. I'm such a sucker for a good cookie.
Quaker Oatmeal Squares is #1. Actually, I love QOS's and always keep a box in my cupboard but I have to admit they need a little help. The beauty of QOS's is that it goes with any sweet cereal and it works best in 3rds. For example, this mornings mix is 2/3's QOS's and 1/3 Fruity Pebbles.
Loudness Wars.
Another mole is dead. How many are there??!! Seriously.
Today I received my navy Air Jordan lows. Shoes are comfy and have a neutral color that goes with most of my gym attire, ***1/2. Sneaker news likened them to a NY Yankees colorway. I never thought of it that way but now that they mention it.
This is why you're huge. Yummy.
Kristen Bell's beauty tips in Shape magazine. She seems like a pretty hardcore health nut, not that there's anything wrong with that. It does a body good.
Gunporn. <--feel like I've posted that before. Oh well.
The basic golf swing. The VHS classics.
US announces last combat brigade heads home when all they've done is switched around the titles. "Officials have been pretty straightforward about what really happened, not that it has been picked up by the media, which has preferred the more pleasant narrative of a decisive military victory. Instead, the US simply “redefined” the vast majority of its combat troops as “transitional troops,” then removed a brigade that they didn’t relabel, so they could claim that was the “last one.”" 50,000 troops still remain.
After Megan Fox borrows clothes from her stepson, the world is somehow a better place.
John exaggerated a bit in a recent interview but he hit on a subject that is certainly debatable, whether the internet has destroyed the music business. I guess in many ways it has destroyed the 'traditional' music business but there is still money to be made if you're willing to work. Musicians need to write great material first and then you need to go out and perform live to make your money. It's an act or a show just like the circus or a Broadway play. You can no longer depend on a completed record as your quick path to early retirement (unless you're Eminem). You've got to take your dog and pony show to the masses because while piracy is rampant they haven't yet figured out a way to steal a live experience. Side note: I think I remember BB King on the Letterman show saying he still worked roughly 300+ shows a year. Now that's working for your money.

Netflix signs deal with major movie studios to bulk up it's streaming service. Yay!
US weapons manufacturers flourish in the Middle East.
German bicycle company has some neat designs. Expensive.
Paris Hilton: maximum push-up, maximum platinum.
Winner of the Ibanez Jem design contest. 'Ibanez will be manufacturing two JEM guitars featuring Alessandro’s design– one for Alessandro and one for Steve (Vai)'. 'Although elements were taken from a free art website, much of the design was based on his ingenuity'- yeah, right. What they're basically saying is the winner stole the graphics for the design...not cool. Sweet guitar nonetheless. If I had known there was a contest maybe I could have whipped something up and, at least, contended.
Playing Epic Coaster and trying to get 200,000.
Fake food is a little weird.
After being on the waiting list for 5 months I finally received the two pedals I ordered from Skreddy: a Pig Mine and a Lunar Module. Both are Big Muff inspired fuzz pedals. Too bad I'm not really into fuzz right now lol...but 5months ago I was champing at the bit.

Lady Gaga hangin' out with the crowd at Lollapalooza. I gotta hand it to her, that was pretty brave...and hot. Sidenote: look at all the people with cameras. The revolution will definitely be televised...on youtube. *Funny that photobucket deleted my photos. I hate when they do that.
I keep seeing really weird Star Wars stuff coming out of the Adidas camp: Boba Fetts, Jabba the Huts, R2-D2/C3PO (should've made two separate shoes instead of that yin/yang bs. I could sport some R2's), Han Solo's, Chewbacca shoes and to along with it a frickin' Chewbacca jacket. Cool site btw.
Made a little headway this morning by transferring everything over to photoshop. I'm winging it on the clouds by starting off white and dabbling in grays little by little. So far I haven't really dabbled much. Will continue to dabble.
I had a new picture up but it was so gross I took it down.
Know your idioms.
I bought a Strymon flanger pedal not too long ago and now the company sends me emails whenever they release new products. Case in point: the El Capistan Tape Echo. Their videos demonstrate some very trippy delay sounds (I'm thinking 'Whole Lotta Love") but it seems overly complicated. For tweakers only. I think I'll keep my little three knob MXR for now.
Breast paintings are made of breasts....or something. I haven't quite figured it out yet.
Girl from Harry Potter (can't think of her name right now) cut off all her hair. Reportedly she walked into a salon and said, "make me look like Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby". <--visual evidence supplied.
The Braun KF20 coffeemaker reminds me of the hair dryers my mother used at her beauty salon appointments back when I was a kid. Bad memories.
I just had an XT burger from Burger King (no cheese, no fries, no soda). 770 cals, 46g fat, 1380 sodium. It was disgustingly delicious but now I want to die.
Dean Smith gets old.
Kelly Brook makes me want to buy Reeboks.
Pretty neat idea with regards to ipod shuffle cord management. I wonder how it works in practice. Definitely no more cords getting caught on drawer handles.
Today is my 11 year anniversary here at Price and Company.
I'm taking the afternoon off to chill and collect my thoughts. New vector started this morning. Pink Floyd's famous '77 Oakland Coliseum poster. Every picture I've seen of this poster has been terrible so I thought I would give it an update. Should be cool if I finish it. Clouds should be the hardest part. I may need some help from Bob. Here's a good one. Bring out the gimp.
Star Wars pancake molds. Yeah, I'm probably gonna need those. Bonus: cookie and sandwich cutters.
New Kindle 3 at Amazon for $139. Pretty neat. I wonder if the screen lights up so you read in the dark. That would be cool. Sidenote: I was searching the last few blogs for Kindle and all I came up with was the word 'kinda' over and over. I must say that a lot. Kinda this or kinda that. *sigh.
Hillary Swank being all fine and whatnot. Challenger: Ashley Greene at some ghey event.
Day 2: I'm still laughing at cat on treadmill video.
Pretty sure I'm having a nervous breakdown. Today started off really bad and has just gotten gradually worse.
I was thinking green for my man-cave but do I really mean orange?
Music player of interest: Cowon J3. Supports MP3/2, WMA, FLAC, OGG, APE and WAV formats. Slot for SD card. No wifi love but that's ok. Touchscreen. Competitively priced. Sexy design. For the music purist. The S9 model is no slouch either. Alternate: Samsung P3.
Westboro Babtist goes to Comic-Con. Gotta love Bender.
Meanwhile, in China.
Sad Keanu photoshops vs. helmet Keanu photoshops.
Fantastic Contraptions 2. I remember being obsessed with the first one (chronicled on this blog, somewhere). The thing about this game is when you clear one of the higher levels you're so proud that you almost want to call your mom and tell her about it.
Government wants to know what you're doing online without court order. Freedom takes another hit to the gut. Funny how Obama gripes about the new Nevada law as being unconstitutional but wants zero constraints when it comes to monitoring people online. <--Probably an unrelated analogy but it sounded good at the time :-)
Mini cupcake factory. Yeah, I might need one of those.
Adrienne Curry - I like her a lot more today than I did yesterday.
House approves 59 billion in emergency funds to continue overseas wars.
The Walking Dead.
Animated comic.Wilkileaks.
Katie Clearly. I have no idea who she is but as soon as I saw this pic I instantly felt sorry for her. She's trying to enjoy a nice run but she can't because her headphone cord is so frickin' long. Look at it. She battling it lol. She has to hold it in order to keep it from bouncing all over the place and pulling her earbuds out. Been there done that. First of all, get rid of that dumb armband. That's half of the problem. Just tuck your Ipod into your waste band, hold it in your hand or put in your pocket (if you have one). All my workout shorts have pockets. It's mandatory. That will help take up some of the slack. Then get one of these doodads or this. Clip the cord to your t-shirt or sports bra. There, was that so hard? You lessened the slack on a lengthy cord and reduced earbud pull from bounce. Word. Then again, maybe she knows something I don't considering she's in a lot better shape than I am. Let's see her when she's 40 :-)
Another mole bites the dust. Will this ever end? It's like an infestation.
Van Halen logo I've been working on for the past few months. The reason it's taking so long is because I've measured everything to the 'T' (or at least tried). Hopefully it will look more like this one when I'm finished.
(CNN) -- Pooping pigeons forced the Kings of Leon to abandon their St. Louis, Missouri, concert after just three songs Friday night, the rock band's management said Saturday. *The bass player, self described germaphobe, took one in the mouth and refused to play more lol/ewww. I don't know how I feel about this. The band doesn't deserve to be crapped on for two hours by stinkin' pigeons but you gotta hate it for the fans too. Good way to start a riot. Just ask GnR.
Somebody at our office must have an upset stomach because there is a very foul smell in the air. Might I suggest you Oust after you shart.
Plants vs. Zombies Plushies. Sweeeeet.
Boba Fett costume at comic-con looks awesome.
Note to self. Check these out: Internet download manager and JDownloader. Currently using Flashget/Flashgot.
Hate Groups. Where are they? I like the one 'general hate'. I'm thinking about starting a movie theater hate group.
Retro Game, Asteroids 1979: http://collageking.co.uk/games/asteroids.swf
Nikon takes latest images from space.
About as sexy a top as I've seen on an LP. Talk about tiger stripe.
Now listen here Rooney!
Why do people have to be assholes? Buy your ticket, sit in your seat, drink your beer, enjoy the game and stay off the effin field. Why is it so hard for some people? Sidenote: There are currently three movies playing I want to see: Salt, Toy Story III and Inception. Unfortunately, I won't see any of these in the theaters because the people sitting around me are all going to be jerks.
I just wrote a little paragraph about this ground zero hubbub but I accidentally hit a button and lost it all. I'm too lazy to recreate it. Here's a graphic I made to help illustrate my point but now I'm over it and ready to get out of here. I think my point was there are Islamic based establishments all over Manhattan and my proposal for an No-Islam buffer zone lol.
I grew up under the impression that silencers were illegal. I guess not.
Bryan Setzer's Guitars. <--Cool stuff. I'm listening to his new live disc right now which is also very cool.
Look at this photograph.
I have no problem with gay pride. I just wish it wasn't so ghey.
James Bond's Famous Aston Martin for Sale....A youngster plays with gadget controls inside the original Aston Martin DB5 car driven by Sean Connery in the James Bond films Goldfinger and Thunderball, as it displayed for the media in London, Wednesday, July 21, 2010. The car is estimated to fetch in the region of $4.6 million when it is sold at auction in London on Oct. 27(AP). You've got to be kidding me. A 4.5 million dollar iconic collectors item and they let this little brat play with it? Somebody tase that kid now! I was really mad about the new google image search until I saw you could revert back to the old one at the bottom of the page. Addendum: Yes, you can revert but it won't stay reverted(sp).
Right now I'm playing Screw the Nut. It's kinda linear and bland. On the other hand, Plants vs Zombies is great (I may buy the full version). Now it's bubble tanks arena and I'm stuck on level 21. This seriously blows. I've come to the conclusion that level 21 is impossible. I've tried it 20 different ways and they've all failed. Of course, on my 21st incarnation, my tank kicked total ass and I finished the game in two minutes.
Find your inner Fatboy Slim with this qwerty beatbox thingy. I'll have to play with it when I get home so I can turn it up.
I just browsed this NYT's article about how ebook sales at Amazon have outnumbered traditional print books. I think I've read too many 'end of the world' novels because stuff like this really worries me for the future lol. Electronic data and communication are great but when the it's the end of the world and the power goes out what have you got? Also, i don't want to see small town bookstores go out of business. I think I heard someone say recently that a town isn't a town without a bookstore.
Kim Kardashian on the beach. I know her ass is big and all but this looks a bit photoshopped. Please tell me it's photoshopped.
