Since we unearthed the Raffi records, I decided to google him. I’d always been a little curious about what that slight accent of his was, and how old he is. I learned that he’s from Egypt and he’s 59. But the most surprising thing I learned was, get ready for it, he produced an album …
Monthly Archives: December 2006
>Wow! 2006 is over!
>It’s weird to be writing a blog post today. Why? Because for the last five Newyear’s Eves, we’ve had a party going on, so writing a blog post, if the blog had existed that whole time, wouldn’t be happening. But this year we decided not to have a party, so here I am. The holidays …
>Help Me Out Here
>Right now I’m listening to “Paralyzer”, the new Finger Eleven song, and I’m curious about something. In the opinion of anybody who’s had a chance to hear it, is it a bigger rip-off of “Trampled Underfoot” by Led Zeppelin or “Take Me Out” by Franz Ferdinand? I can’t decide.
What? I Need an Escape Route?
Before I write a big post about the holidays, I just had to write this down because, well, it belongs here. Attention all dumbasses! When you decide it’s time to carjack someone, you might want to know where you’re going if you manage to steal their car. Otherwise, you might end up having to admit …
Culture Shock
I’m still laughing about this, so it had to go up. I just listened to Weird Al’s CD “Straight Outta Lynwood” the other day. There was a song called Weasel-Stomping Day on it. I think he was making fun of all the crazy holidays that are created, or maybe the way people forget what Christmas …
Grief is Not a Joke!
Well it looks like I have a little more time than I thought. So here’s another post. Gotta get them written down before I go to the hell computer. Somebody made me a wee bit upset yesterday, and it’s still bugging me today. I ran into an old friend I haven’t seen in years, and …
Happy Holidays Everybody!
You know the drill. It’s that time of year again. I’m off to the primitive land of dialup and a computer that’s probably choking on spyware and who knows what else. So it’ll probably be a while before I can post again, which sucks, becauseI have lots of ideas. Maybe I’ll be able to slip …
Tell me why?
Tell me the earthly reason why we must have stockings for pets. They’re not going to open them. Christmas doesn’t exist in arf arf world or meow meow land. So why pay extra for a bunch of little toys? Why not buy them a bone and some treats or a ball of string and be …
Why Do I Care About This?
So some Miss USA goes to New York and drinks some booze and snorts a little cocaine and gets caught. Woopdy frickin doo! Tell me why this is even on the news now. But the part that pisses me off is what the snivelling model says in her speech when Donald Trump gives her a …
I’m Still Scratching My Head!
And shaking it. Am I awake? I am. I was watching the news, and the music start sup, and the lady comes on and says, “Tonight, we’ll tell you why scratch tickets aren’t the greatest stocking stuffer idea…” I’m like what the hell? What could possibly be wrong with a goddamn scratch ticket? Don’t take …
