At least once a day I think to myself, “Man, stop the spam already..“. I save all of my spam, and May has topped 10,000 e-mails, somehow. The past few months have been around 3000-4000. I hate spam. Well, the other day I found a spam or two that I didn’t mind receiving. My spam filter missed them, and so I was forced to read their content. The body of the e-mails remind me of At The Drive-In lyrics, or something.
And dance with the dark side of her fruit cake.When you see razor blade around stalactite, it means that grizzly bear behind dust bunny reads a magazine.When related to dilettante hibernates, mastadon toward salad dressing takes a coffee break.wheelbarrow defined by cashier assimilate blithe spirit living with, or bartender for dance with trombone for asteroid.
Any pit viper can share a shower with graduated cylinder about, but it takes a real line dancer to garbage can behind.bubble baths remain fat.razor blade inside girl is boiled.And eat the dark side of her cream puff.
You don’t sweat, you percolate.
You ski uphill.
Every time I read those, I am left wanting more. It’s like poetry. I guess I’m officially weird.
Working on Listen-To puts me in a weird mood.

A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon this remix of The Flaming Lips and random rap song vocals. The artist: The Kleptones. It works. It works very well, and I cannot stop listening. I’ve thrown two of my favorites up in the flash mp3 player above. Check them out.
In other news, Listen-To will be returning. I’ve decided I don’t want to shelf it that soon, so I better get off my butt and get the redesign going. If you see me sitting around, doing nothing, kick me .. I need to get this going.
I’ve been playing guitar like crazy lately. And by ‘like crazy’, I mean ‘my fingers are raw and callused like never before’… and I love it. Now, we just need to get that band together and practice. 80s and 90s R&B/Pop covers .. here we come. Be afraid; be very afraid.
I’d like to redesign this site one of these days.. any ideas? I’m going to make it so you, the readers, will be able to choose what style to see. I just need any and all ideas .. leave a comment, if you have any.
Well, last year I remembered to listen to Lagwagon on May 16th. This year it totally slipped my mind, like everything else has been doing lately. I keep forgetting everything I am supposed to do. Oh well, I’ll live.
I did not forget, however, how much I love the Let’s Talk About Feelings album by Lagwagon, and so I listened to it a few times on the way to work on the 17th as well as a few times during the day. I also gave Double Plaidinum a few listens. I remember when I bought that album. I was in high school, out of town at a bowling competition (yes, I was a bowler in high school). I had been looking all over for the CD, and couldn’t find it anywhere. We finally ended up at some random CD shop and I was able to pick it up for $15.99 or something rediculous like that. Well worth it. I can actually remember when I heard Lagwagon for the first time. I was in my basement, doing whatever, listening to music that had been uploaded to my public FTP (on dial-up at the time .. haha). I am still amazed at the fact that people would upload songs to a dial-up account, to then download .. from a dial-up account. The first song that I heard was Alien 8, on Double Plaidinum. I remember thinking, “Woah. Punk. Killer finger-tapping guitar solos. Woah”, or something along those lines.
Today I got a random e-mail from Fat Wreck Chords announcing that the acoutic split by Joey Cape (Lagwagon) and Tony Sly (No Use For A Name) had been released on Tuesday. Six songs by each, 5 old songs done acoustic, and 2 new songs. How rad is that? Totally rad; so I bought it.
Tomorrow is the Thrice/Dashboard Confessional/Get Up Kids/Motion City Soundtrack. It’s supposed to rain .. and it’s outside. I can’t wait. I should get some sleep, after I watch a bit-o-the-tube. I feel no guilt about watching TV before bed, because I woke up at 6:45am and did 20 minutes on my elliptical machine! Woo-ha!
P.S.
Did you catch the dyslexia in last year’s entry? Funny stuff.
P.P.S.
Who are you? Do you read this often? Why do you read? How do you know me? I’m curious who is watching & reading. Leave some comments (even if you know I know you are reading).
P.P.P.S.
I just wrote pee-pee (thrice).
