I'm walking home from the bus stop on my street in South Boston and I hear "Sunday Bloody Sunday" playing from an open window. How much more Southie does it get ( Read more... )

That being my last livejournal update. I'm at home sick right now so I have some time to chat at the cyber-world. My throat is killing me and I'm finding it difficult to talk. This is going to make things interesting for chapel on Thursday. Sometimes I wonder if someone isn't trying to keep my team from leading worship on campus after a couple ( Read more... )

Who knew you could distribute liquid nitrogen through a glorified spray paint can?!?!? Apparently the dermatologists do. They also know that if you pair the -198 degree spray with a regiment called (I swear I'm not kidding) "The Duct Tape Cure", your warts go away after a few weeks. However, the doctor (after he sprayed my hands) told me that no ( Read more... )

So the time has come for the penultimate activity for those of us between the ages of 18 and 22...SPRING BREAK ROAD TRIP!!!!! I flew into Dallas so that I could then embark on a 12 hour pilgrimage to the great city of Atlanta, GA (home to many amazing females and even moreso amazing cars). I never knew Atlanta could be so damn cool. Damn skippy ( Read more... )

Honest to God, tonight I helped an overweight old man with a prosthetic leg out of his chair by grabbing him by the seat of his pants and giving the ole heave-ho ( Read more... )

Today I was paid one the coolest compliments I think I've ever received. This weekend, I played music for the Diocesan Sr. High overnight (I'm now the music guy for these gigs, which I enjoy immensely). At the end of the day today, one of the organizers of the event, a senior on the youth council came up to me and asked me to guess which song she ( Read more... )

I learned today that I am a legend among waiters at McCormick's for my drinking ability. There are people that continue to talk about my exhibition of alcohol mastery on Saint Valentine's Day (I wish a happy "VD" to all of you) in 2002!!! Local legend will tell of me drinking shots that I've never even heard of, much less consumed. And other ( Read more... )

So I've been a little on the not happy side these last two days as royal screwups in an already none-too-competent office kept me from leading worship in chapel, an activity that you faithful readers were perhaps aware of my anticipation for. Fortunately it is now Wednesday evening. What does THAT mean boys and girls??? That means that John ( Read more... )

So about 2 months ago I was bullied into purchasing a cable package by AT&T (my existing broadband internet provider). Basically they told me that without cable tv, I would now be paying $61 a month but if I would choose to subscribe to basic cable service, then the combined cost of television AND internet would be $55 a month. I don't understand ( Read more... )

It was an interesting day today in the realm of contemplating my musicality. It started on the train to school (damn cliched image of subway contemplation). I saw this advertisement for ESPN extolling the praises of sports and displayed two random athletes. I started to think about how bizarre humanity is that so many of us (my roommate leads ( Read more... )
