I keep putting the taxes off. I am hoping they will just do themselves. or I could just flee the country and go to the US. They probably wouldn't let me in though.

Howdy all-

Well, it's another rainy day here in... uh, wherever I said I live to the left there. So, let's see, today I am going to open up my imac and try to throw in a new hard drive and some more memory.

OK, Mike Watt and the Secondmen played in Portland last night (on my b-day) and it was totally amazing. I mean, it was seriously incredible. Those guys were all great musicians, and the songs were so bad ass. They got totally polyrhythmic and atonal. Fuck yes it was great.

OK, so I had to go to work for two hours, but I'm blowin off my...

Regarding the Watt show:

With Watt was pete mazich (hammond b3) and jerry trebotic (drums). You see, these guys were excellent musicians, they were constantly looking at eachother and listening to eachother so they could be totally responsive and speak through their instruments. The drummer was fast and was perfectly on time. He threw in a lot of funk shuffles which really made Watt's bass lines feel... well, it made me want to dance, I want to say upbeat, but his lines are so complex too.

Anyway, the organ layed a nice foundation, with some very atonal solos. Often Watt and the organ would sort of trade brief rhythmic lines over a funk shuffle drum thing. These lines were brief spurts of totally "trippy" and atonal but seemingly melodic energy. The thing that made it all work was that they were tight, you could really hear the silent spaces during the song, if you know what I mean.

Anyway, I can't wait to see him again.

Dear god, I had a vegetarian blue cheese "burger" and my ass has been paying the price all day. I really need to do my taxes today, but I just want to post shit here, play guitar, nap, drink coffee.

OK, If you are reading this (all 2 or 3 of you maybe), what's your favorite way to procrastinate (i.e. fuck off).

Oh yes, tomorrow...

It's another cold rainy day out here in Papa New Guinea. I think I need to put on some Tom Waits and curl up with my classical dynamics homework...

Don't forget, Mike Watt this Thursday (I'm flying to Portland just for the show)!

So I just got back from Madison Wisconsin yesterday; the school totally hooked me up, flew me out there, put me up in a hotel, got me some wheels for a few days. All to get me to go to school out there next fall.

So, I'll be moving to Madison in August!

So they threw out that whole universe is expanding thing? damn! I really liked that one. doesnt that pretty much rule out the big bang and the eventual implosion thing as well? I really havent been keeping up on this stuff. the law is still energy tends to get less and less organized right? everything moves towards a homogenius mixture, chaos etc. or is the whole universe just in a kind of stasis or never ending pattern?

Instead of telling you what I am doing, I should tell you what I am not doing. I am definitely not writing my philosophy paper that is due today at 5pm. That, my friends, is a for sure certainty.

I hope that works out for you. I could see this plan backfiring if it were my life.

I meant that if I were in your wife's situation I would probably become insanely jealous when you got your turn. I hate sharing.
