The worst time to start riding a bicycle is in gnat season. If only I could live in a concrete jungle, an asphalt and cement wonderland free of the dull and meaningless strips of grass that line every sidewalk in Sarasota. For it is in those insipid mini-lawns that the gnat larvae spawn into tiny black airborne specks, multitudinous swarms of insectoid nuisance that wait...

So I bought a bicycle a couple of weeks ago and I'm finally riding again. I got it for $200 at Sports Authority, 'cause I figured It was better to by a Chinese-made bike there for two-hundred rather than a Chinese-made bike at Wal-Mart for $89. I figure in about six months it will have paid for itself.

I used to ride from '98-'02, when...

My Zune died today. My unprofessional attempts to repair it only worsened things.

That's ultimately not as bad as my car getting hit last week, while it was parked and I was away.
Fuck you, mysterious car-hitter, where ever and whoever you are. Fuck you very much.

In one week I will be in a Maiden Pit. Rawk!

I'm excited about the Iron Maiden setlist. It's gonna be all old eighties stuff. They're gonna play Wasted Years and Moonchild and I'm gonna be happier than a hard-on in pussy heaven.

Tuesday 4/15 Rush at Amway Arena
Monday 4/21 The Boss at St Pete Times Forum
Thursday 4/24 Clutch at State Theater
Wednesday 5/28 Maiden at Sleep Train Pavilion
Monday 6/9 Steely Dan at Ruth Eckerd Hall
Thursday 7/31 Yes at Ford Amphitheatre

And that may not be all the shows I see this year. Oooooh, excitement!

I'm getting a little obsessive with sporcle games.

So this stripper says to me, "I'm gonna give you my phone number. Can I give you my phone number?"
As if I would say, "No, hot naked female person, I don't want to contact you, ever."
That's what I should've said.

I played RockBand for about 8 hours the other night, just drummin' on medium the whole night. Good Times.

I was 'gonged' at...

My friend's birthday is today and he's going to Mons. I have another friend whose birthday is at the end of the month, and we're renting a limo and going to Mons. Damn you, February, you're too expensive!

Check out Keyhole. I figure, it's my friend's birthday, the least I could do is pimp his band.

Blah, blah, blah...
No seriously, blah, blah, blah. It's such an original concept for a blog entry; nobody's ever posted "blah, blah, blah," before.

I'm grumpy.

I love Micheal Spurlock. That is all.
