Ok, os I made three blog entries on my site today... rather than reproduce them all here (though they were full of very well written, thought-provoking goodness) I think I'll just post the bit about music:

"ugh" *sniffle* *SNEEZE* "ow! fuck"
"ugh" *sniffle* ...
My day so far. I have a head cold that's making me miserable. My head is clogged, yet my nose runs like a faucet and my throat is sore as fuck. the worst part is the sneezing, which for reasons I won't really get into here, is quite painful for me.
Ok, I guess that's enough whining...

Dude, the strip clubs were outlawed about a year ago over here. There was this huge fracas over how the US Armed Forces were sponsoring prostitution, etc., etc. If you want to know the truth, the military honchos over here tried to make it as difficult as they legally could to keep someone from scoring with a dancer or a pro. You can't do anything about a kid getting a lap dance--they ALREADY weren't allowed to go grab prostitutes. So, since they outlawed stripping, OF COURSE all the gangsters and extortion artists from the Korean Tong gangs, the Chinese Triads, the Phillipino Mafia, and the Russian Mafiya just stopped shipping girls, right? Wrong. And now that they can't earn easy tips from dancing or lapdances, sexual favors (once something that was largely up to them, unless they shipped in with a particularly evil crew) are now about the only way they can guarantee they can pay off their mark AND have some money for when they go home to start over. 'Cause, you know, you can only get so many $10 orange juices out of a drunk GI.

This song is freaking AWESOME. Genius. I think Jonathan Coulton has really captured what it's like to be an evil overlord in love. Er, I mean.. what it must be like. I mean, I surely wouldn't know... 'cause I'm not an evil overlord. Honest. Well, I'm certainly not an overlord and you can't prove otherwise.

Downloading song as I type. What news, R?
It's not even finished and it's a fucking CLASSIC. Even my henchmen think I'm crazy? Rock.

I uploaded a couple of silly pics of myself I was messing with a while back and found again tonight. Um, yeah... that's it.

I'm good friends with them. Actually I've known them since I was 16. I love it when people come to my journal and are like "wow! I know that band!" It makes me all proud of my girls
zarina:
in all honesty, I wouldn't bother with Here We Go, it's fairly different from their usual, due to their record label fucking them over. They don't even like it much. I like it now, but it took a long time to grow on me. They're recording again, wait for the new cd.
Happy 2004, peeps.

So how was the New Year's, R?
Various flavors of strangeness over here.

Well, it's kind of like this.
I can't wait to get home, but at the same time I would definitely bring all my friends over if I could.
This place gets about as surreal as you can imagine, what with language barriers, cultural differences, etc. At times, I feel like I'm an international sitcom.
For example, going to McDonald's in the middle of Mad Cow Madness, only to see a sign that reads (and I assume is there to make me feel better):
Australia's Cleanliness Meat
McDonald's Burger is Safety!
Now apply this wackiness with a whole lotta drinking and an ensemble cast of pissed off grunts, crazy locals, and Russian or whatever-Stani ladies looking for love, and... I really should be marketing this.

I got my new 12"powerbook. Fuckin' a.
SO awesome.
As soon as I finish transferring data from the ol iBook, it goes to the girlfriend. I love that it's going to such a caring home.

Lessee, update time.
Texas was ok. It was, as always, Texas-like. heh. I was happy to see my Mom and Grandma though. My girlfriend survived the first meeting with the family unscathed.
I'm virtually done Christmas shopping. The only thing I have left to get is a ~$20 white elephant gift for the gift exchange at work. That, and something for my girlfriend's mom since...

I have all of them.. except for number 3 and number 4 I've ahd some problems comming across those two... but I think I've finally found a sellar so that problem will be resolved next payday!
Unfortuantly, my local comic book store only carries on copy of each episode, and one of the workers always gets her grubby hands on it before I do.. so I have to orger them thorugh the sight. #8 and #9 are on their way to my matchbox apartment as we speak!
It's awesome to find someone else who is intrested in deranged yet hillariously written and well drawn comics.... even if they are obscure and hard to find.
