So I'll be down in Denver on Wednesday to see Th' Legendary Shack Shakers at Benders. I might be down a bit earlier to hang out or whatnot if people aren't up for country music. I'll probably plan on just going to Netherworld unless someone has some other suggestions.

I checked this on google, BBC ran a story about it in May ( Read more... )

Any anonymous comments on public posts from now on will be screened. It's not that I believe in censorship in general, just censorship of cowards. Anyone who read my previous blog would be aware of this. Links to porn cams, travelling wilbury ringtones or vague comments that may or may not be insinuating something that I don't have the ( Read more... )

When I was a child, I used to speak as a child and act as a child, and play with toys. Though the toys I played with were never nearly as nice as the other kids’. When I was in 5th grade, nothing was cooler to a 5th grade boy than a car that turns into a robot. For several months I had to borrow Transformers from other kids during recess to keep ( Read more... )

As of today I have canonically gone longer than Jesus without having sex.

I read the transcripts from the interviews with Larry King from the past two nights, and if Larry Flint and Al Sharpton have good things to say about him, who am I to say anything if I never met the man. I do think he did a lot of evil in his time, but then so have ( Read more... )

When Ronald Reagan died, I had nostalgic memories of the hero we thought he was when I was growing up. When Richard Nixon died, they said in hindsight he made this a better country by going down with the ship instead of tossing scapegoats to save himself, and I was willing to believe them. When Gerald Ford died,I thought he chose a good time to ( Read more... )

So I recently got a grill, and decided to break it in today. I invited a couple of folks from school over for that purpose. I just said come over sometime between 6 and 7 with something to grill. So, at promptly 6 PM, this happens. I don't know if anyone will show up, but I'm gonna do me some grillin' tonight.
