Well, well-first off the pic above retains to a challenge in my journal.....Second-I got the package yesterday and that just rawks man--thank you so much-New Math is fucking great-I can hardly believe these guys did not get more coverage in the day-what a great record-listened to it all day today for about the 5th time through--So was this a label that you and your brother had but folded? or do you still release stuff....IThe other platters are all fucking great as well-Darkest of the hillside thickets are a great band as are the fags....and the other one (the canadian band is my new cruising to work cd) like a hopped up flat duo jets ....so anyhow, thank you so much-I have kept your addy and plan to return the favor real soon.....( a cleric EP ( mr brother-in-laws band and some other goodies) I agree with your assesment of our nordic brothers ( and truth be told I am not real big on the hives--they just do not grab me -maybe I should give it a second chance) as my entry here is growing far to long already I will move this along.....I would say the one band I love now, but could have cared less for when it came out is CLAWHAMMER
saw them live with Mudhoney back in college-solid show so I picked up the (at the time) debut......thought it sucked...low and behold -about 6 years later I played it and was fucking blown away by how ahead of its time it was......I will also say the same thing for the band Skeleton Key-I recommend both of those bands to anyone who likes music.....later chum and thanks again!

yes phenomenauts are awesome!!!!

I'm with ya, I think the kids are all spoiled brats these days. I hate the instant gratification nature of society, everybody thinks they deserve to have everything handed to them before the thought has finished forming in their head that they know what they want.

it was neat to meet your sister.

haha. i just watched that movie last night (again). i don't know why actually because it's not like it's the best acted or scripted, or creative or anything kind of movie, but i like it anyways.

i particularily like the girl making announcments inside the retail rodeo...

i cant believe i randomly ran into you this evening.

what time saturday?

nordic's trying to get her account figured out. it was a gift account and now she is trying to renew it and it's giving her errors. she'll be back as soon as it's figured out.

so how's the first week of IKEA madness treated you? i'm headed back soon.

things with wings...

thanks for the IKEA passes. i had a lot of fun and will be returning sometime after the mass hysteria of next week to make an even larger dent in my wallet.

actually i heard that J4 was there but i didn't see him... bummer.

Hi, Punky got my pass I think. Can't wait to go! YAY!

i think you could still find that optimistic and happy child inside. why did you want to be an archeologist? when did you change your mind on that? or haven't you?

and for the record. i don't think there is such a thing as a "normal kid." everyone has their weirdness about them. and who really can define normal anyways?

my favorite school activity when i was 8 years old? hmmm hard to remember really. probably getting out of class to go play with the old mimeograph machine because supposedly i was "too smart" for the regular english and math class. so i got to sit in a room with a bunch of other dorks and do silly quizzes and puzzles and play with the office equipment.

as for disney - i love disney, but i don't like what eisner has done to it. the old disney with the classic movies and rides and no sequels (walt would roll over in his grave if he knew about cinderella 2 etc.) i remember going to disneyland and disney world as a kid and being enamored with tomorrowland.

the kinds of ice cream i'd like to pull from the grocer shelves - anything with nuts in it. i don't like nuts in my ice cream. it irritates me to no end when i read a description about an ice cream thats something like "coffee flavored ice cream with loads of fudge, creamy caramel, chocolate bits and hazelnuts." it all is so lovely and then blech. my favorite kind of ice cream is coffee flavored ice cream though. cold stone creamery has a great coffee ice cream which i like to mix oreos and heathbars into. mmmmmm.

i'm going to IKEA today - i can hardly stand the wait!

I want to go to friends and family day! YAY! I LOVE that place! It will make me feel like I'm back in Burbank. As a side note, I know the building you were in. It is really cool. As for the girls thing, I think you should just date someone else and then the old girl won't bother you so much, or at all. Seriously! In terms of avoiding the SGTC group, WHATEVAH! You should come and try it once. If you hate it and think it's boring, then so be it. Oh and for watching TV because you think people are hot in it - I LOVE Magnum P.I. and watch it every chance I get.

2 please! cool i keep seeing the billboards around town and i'm itching to get inside!

as for the strip club - i've never been to one so i can't comment

as for the old girl - i agree with nordicgoddess - just go out and date other people. dwelling on the "what could have been" will only make you miserable. plus it's easy for memories and old emotions to be idealized when reality would really have been a very different thing. so, even if you ever did hook up with the girl that haunts you - it would never live up the ideal of what it is in your head. so... anyhow - don't feel like you have to find a girlfriend right away, just go out and have fun with as many girls as you want!

as for the new girl - work and dating can be weird. but if you really like her, flirt and see if she responds back - and if so, then what the heck, go for it!

as for the SGTC group, you sholudn't worry about feeling like you belong or not. nobody really "belongs" in the SGTC group - it's the craziness of how completely different everyone is that makes it fun. just give it a try - and don't be self-conscious or analytical about it - let your brain take a vacation and just sit back, observe, participate, enjoy! you can't create comedy as good as what naturally comes from a group of crazy twin cities people. and MOST of the SGTC group doesn't bite...

as for pop music. just turn on mtv (and keep it on) for awhile and then every now and then flip the radio to KDWB and you will immediatley know what is up with pop music these days. but even without doing that i can tell you you're not missing much. you could also just paruse the most requested downloads on the itunes store...

as for bad tv with hot people - that's kind of the point of a lot of tv isn't it?

for some reason i feel like watching some old episodes of the Smurfs...

have fun at your wedding. or whosever wedding it is.

I am glad you watched some crappy t.v. How did you like it? Did it relax you or didn't you get to that stage? Oh, and how was La La Land?

Why yes sir, you did.

i was at target today and walked by DVDs of 'the office' and thought of you. what up IKEA boy?

Welcome to Trash Rock! I look forward to your comments. I gotta thank you for (indirectly) reminding me to add "proto punk" to the group description. cheers!

I watch the Gillmore girls with my fiance' (JuneCleavage) and her daughter every week...they actually had moved back to her hometown and had to endure being strange in a rich little town....and Samurai Jack kicks ass in my book...hoping the dvd rolls my way for father's day.....yeah, as far as the Von Bondies and all those new wave garage bands --I take it with a grain of salt--I mean really-I am big fan of Billy Childish--but outta the 450 or so releases have they all kicked ass --fuck no-I just get sick of people trashing bands cause the white stripes so not think they are cool ....at least the Von Bondies are not out producing Reba Macentire's next long play.....I have tons of proto-punk/garage/lo-fi rawk maybe we should make a few interesting mixes and swap them out....later brother
