Guitar Center is retarded. I tried to sell something to a customer of mine from back in Baltimore and I couldn't. Why? Because GC is retarded. I have done it at least 20 times before and now it is a no-no. Corporate also has a knack of rolling out a new way we are to do business, we do it, it fails, then we go... Read More
More cool video -- this time I'm just a blink on the far RIGHT side. That's the drag about being a cymbalista. No one shoots footage of us! Drummers get all the glory. Can't wait to get hooked back up to my tenor. :sigh:
Well, I keep finding jobs that I am qualified for but I cannot get an employer to call me back. I hate sending my resume out through email. It is so impersonal. Let me... Read More
1) I say hold out for what you want jobwise. Don't settle. I've done that before and it only leads to a life of "this sucks". And think of it this way -- do you really want to work for someone who doesn't return calls? Naaah.
2) Pooped in a cooler -- that's a headline worthy of the tabloids!
3) I've been thinking about your 30th. I figured you'd have some kind of party that I could secretly crash. But now I've kinda blown the surprise so.......
4) What?!? I thought you were actively trying to date more. Just not finding the right someone?
5) I need pictures of the new do. Seriously.
Thanks for the PM the other day. Life is weird right now in big ugly ways but I'm hangin' in there. I just self medicate by working too much.
Dude. You're missed. I heard rumors of you swinging back this way for a visit. Is this true??
I agree with the above poster's comments: don't settle- either for a job or girlfriend. You deserve the best. If you'd have pooped in a cooler, I think as cool as you are on my list, you'd have gotten cooler (pun intended).
Well kids, been workin a ton and finally had a couple of days off. I didn't have a great month (aka didn't make much money) But I am getting promoted as of May 1st. Yay? no. Basically it is more work for not much more money. I still wanna get the F out of there but I might as well be the best while I... Read More
Thanks for the dino link. When my schedule settles down a bit I'll sit and play it. I have literally lived out of a suitcase for the last five days and I've hit the ground running, of course. SOOOO much to catch up on. Stay tuned for my next blog and it'll explain what the hell I did with my amazing weekend. So surreal.....
Not much goin on. Work kinda sucks right now. Basically, because I'm about the only one there that really knows the gear, I get stuck fixing all the displays and rewiring rigs. BS!!! It's like I am being punished for knowing more than my co-workers.
So it is Saturday night and I am at home messin around on the internets. Boy, am I exciting. I... Read More
Yep, you always get punished for being better than your coworkers. That's the way it works! I stayed home and went to bed early last night - it was a too busy, exhausting week, and I knew I'd be getting up early to go into work today. Why do you like the Predators?
Oh, and I'd have to answer your question as what celebrity DON'T I hate the most. And even then I'd have to do some research to answer your question since I really don't keep up with them (I dislike them that much) . . .
Hmmm, forgot the celebrity question.... my bad. I think it would have to be a "category" of celebs rather than an individual. I detest the whole rehab hag phenomenon. Lindsey, Nicole, Britney, ou get the idea.... Second place would probably go to celebs who use reality shows to workout their personal issues. Bret Michaels, Flava Flave, Scot Baio....Puh-leeez!
I hear you about work and being the on-location specialist, as it were. No rest for the weary. I've brought home charts every night this week and have been up late typing my ass off trying to keep up. I'll be here on the computer for at least another 6-7 hrs today getting my shit together for Monday. During marathon charting sessions I tend to keep my yahoo chat open so pop in and say hi if you'd like: danapalooza65
Hang in there, Mr. Model Employee! Have an excellent week.
Sorry about the goofy late night post last night. I get a little stoooooopid when there's been a wee bit too much to drink. Hey, it was derby night...what can I say?
No prob. I've been posting a new hype thread once a day for the last week or so to keep people excited and we have a few more to go. Didn't want that surprise given away too soon. Thanks for understanding.
The "24 hours in Charlotte" trip was interesting. The drive of 6.5 hours EACH WAY kinda sucked but it was worth it. Got to meet a longtime SG friend and swap interesting stories and random knowledge such as:
- Jerome the Gnome
- Difference between a nerd, a geek, and a dork and where we fall on the spectrum
- How does frequency response of... Read More
Here I am! First word of advice, don't do craigslist first if you've never done a dating website. There's a scary factor there you don't find in some of the other websites. Any of the paid websites are generally okay except eHarmony. eHarmony SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS. OkCupid is free, and a lot of people like it. I personally like the crowd on Nerve.com, but it's a paid site. But it tends to attract a more alternative-type crowd. Yahoo personals, match.com, etc. are fine (paid) - they tend to attract a wider range of folks. You might also want to join us over at the Online Dating group for more advice . . . Good luck!
Nashvegas is still cool. Haven't gotten out a whole lot. Did however go with a guy I work with to an all-time low dive bar. To say it was a mixed crowd was an understatement. We had punks. We had squares. We had Rockabillies. We had skinheads... and everyone got along. I even met a gay skinhead. How in the F does that... Read More

Why do you like the Predators?
Have an excellent week.
How in the F does that...
