Hey. Joe.
I can't find a good link, but, the Make Up cover this on their 1999 album "Save Yourself". It is awesome especially when Joe calls in on a cell phone and the song proceeds to blow up.

To the library!
The rap anchor on that first link didn't look very safe or redundant.

Is alcohol worse than ecstasy?
Just looking at that survey I have a hard time believing that Cannabis is worse than Solvents. By Solvents they mean sniffing glue, right?

Love thy Neighbor
These images seem pretty cowardly to me. Taking pictures out of the car window and labeling them as a sex offenders house sheds no light on this subject.

I love google notebook. It's a great way to keep track of your online research.

If it's too loud, you're too young
I grew up around Washington in the 1990's and saw Ted's previous band Chisel many times. There was one show at the Black Cat where he did one of the most ridiculous stage moves I've ever seen. While playing he lobbed his telecaster up in the air and head butted it with enough force to cause the guitar to ring and feed back. He caught it and just kept playing. He did it a couple of times. Head butting a solid body electric guitar has got to hurt. Ted's shows are about the most lively ones... [more]

Don't Stop
These all seem terrible. I think Bill had the write idea with Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop" during the 1992 campaign, which incidentally is on the turn table as I write this. Synchronicity.

"I like people to support the label, but as a musician, when I write a song I want it to be heard." Ian Mackaye
Fugazi is probably my favorite band ever. Don't get too caught up in what they stand for or what it "means". When it comes down to it they are artists and art should make a statement. Some of the best and most intense live shows I've seen have been by Fugazi. When I was a kid growing up in Northern VA I lived for this band catching every show they did in the area. If they ever go on tour again I'm going to pack up the car and follow them like the Grateful Dead. Everytime they... [more]

I think he kissed sophia.
On monday a 18 year old kid here in salt lake killed 5 people including the wife of a guy I know. Watching this made me feel that here is another kid that is isolated and becoming more and more hurt and angry because he puts himself out there on the internet to be picked on by anonymous jerks.

What in the world are you talking about? Guilds? CCP? Alliance?

Will Vinyl Survive?
I think the best thing about viynl is that when you buy a record you buy a piece of art. It's so much more than the music pressed on wax, the cover is art. You can't appreciate a CD like you can a 12 x 12 record sleeve. Sure, I buy CD's. But, I buy records too. It depends on where I'm going to listen to it. If it is something I'd tend to listen to in the car, I get a CD. If it's something I'm going to mostly listen to while chilling around the house, I get the LP. And, many things I own on... [more]

Underground Bases
They forgot about Mt. Weather in Norther Va. I grew up two miles down the road from this base. We saw all kinds of strange goings on in our day. After 9/11 it was rumored that Cheney was hiding in the catacombs of Mt. Weather. By the looks of the army guys at either end of the road with M-16's at that time, I think they might have been right.

Society stripped away
I found most of these shots to be neither well composed nor well lit. But, anything showing T & A is sure to be successful.

A Delicate Situation
As a climber in Utah, I think that if Dean is willing to sack up and free solo a climb like this he should be able to. Anyone who is going to put a bolt into a piece of stone as beautiful as this should be shot, but if you're willing to take the chance and commit to a climb like this and not damage rock to protect yourself then fine. Not many people are going to follow in his footsteps anyway including myself.

Google Map Real Estate Value
This thing says that my 850sq foot house in Salt Lake City is worth $900,000. I only paid $130,000. I'm rich, bitch. All my neighbors have million dollar homes apparently. And some people call this the ghetto.

The Fugazi/Destiny's Child mashup is the worst thing I have ever heard.

I seem to have put on some weight over the holidays. I need to loose 15 - 20 lbs before climbing season comes. Thanks for the references guys.

Bob Jones University
I'm a little surprised that they don't refer to themselves as a conservative arts college. The L word has such bad connotations to these guys.

R.I.P. Freeze
I was working a ski show a couple of weeks ago and they were giving away free copies of freeze and I had one at my booth. The girl in the booth next to me was like "I'm soooo bored." So I say "Here, read this Freeze Magazine or something". She says "I wouldn't wipe my ass with Freeze".
Ouch.
