My life has been fairly uneventful lately. Just man-sized helpings of Record Store misery and band practice. I did purchase a minidisk microphone over at the EBAY monolith. I figure I'll tape everything that I play on just to play for my kids if they ever step out of line

Maximillian Schell has his fuckin' space probe headed for the Black Hole!!! I just bought this insane ass Line 6 pedal. This company is sick in the head and I rather enjoy it. For someone who can't play very much in the way of traditional guitar music, this pedal is a ray of sunshine. It's an FM4 Filter Modeler. Basically, it has most of the...

Hey bro...
O.K. I'm pretty weak when it comes to the disires of the flesh. I have hurt a few people in my lifetime because I gave into the temptations of a beautiful girl. But I have learned from them and moved on. I've learned that I just have to be slicker. Just kidding...
Really though, I believe that if two adults are attracted to each other and they BOTH want to do something about it, then it's all good. (unless it involves cheating) We are human beings and a part of being a human is physical attraction to others. And it's ok. And one of the ways we humans express ourselves is by being intimate or physical with someone. And that's ok. I love expressing my passion for another human by being physical with them. And it doesn't always involve the act of sex. And it shouldn't always involve that. But being close to someone you are attracted to is a wonderful thing. And you don't have to be into the same things to express this. If you both agree that an act of 'hooking up' for an evening or a day or whatever doesn't equal a relationship of boyfriend to girlfriend then there is no guilt or pressure of the aftermath.
Now I don't know the details of your situation, but if you say she is dating a friend already then it's obviously an off-limits situation. And you knowing this and not acting on impulse is very admirable indeed.
I used to do lsd alot but I can no longer handle the stuff. I can't be social at all when I'm on it and so instead of just trippin out and diggin' it I worry about what everyone else is thinking and nervous because i can't talk. So it's not for me anymore.
I will say that I hope you meet someone you like who is unattached and into you. Someone who IS on the same page as you. You deserve it!
Take care

Hot diggity dog! The noise collective is rolling full steam ahead. The delay-drenched sessions we recorded tonight sound like something I would actually buy in a store. For a non-musician like myself, that is an accomplishment. Everyone was spot on and the drone was immense. Any fan of Kraut-rock and heroin fuzz should check this shit out.

It's on my man. Flyers will start circulating this weekend. Not sure who else is on the ticket yet, but I think The Honey Harlowes are gonna play also.
Just to warn you, I'm only refering you to this gig... it ain't my thing. I'll do everything I can to make sure that YOU GUYS get the right treatment, but I'm stepping out as far as the organization is concerned. I don't know how proffesional these particular peole are so I don't know how well it will be put together.
The only reason I'm not putting more of myself into this is because....
I AM NOW THE OFFICIAL BOOKER/MANAGER OF THE MASONIC TEMPLE.
Me and the partnership that owns the building will be busy making improvements to that venue and putting together the opening events and such from now until March. And when it's on, you better definitely believe it's on. I'm looking out for everybody who looks out for me and you guys are definitely towards the top of that list.

Reality show where WFPN gives cameras and shit to those populating insane asylums nationwide. We'll try and give the fuckers some regional flare. Or was that road flares? Whatever.

I'm going to take away the first name for my record which was:

Oh no, I'm not bowing to some imaginary standards and etiquette force. In fact, I will leave a song on the record entitled that. I need something more SINISTER and PERSONAL. The buildings thing seems a little vague although effective. Here...

I dunno.... I mean, don't get me wrong, there are definitely people who come in the library who I hate, but I don't get pleasure from it. It sours me. I don't spend a lot of time writing about it in my Journal because I would really, really, really rather not. I would rather write about intelligent things, which are usually the product of someone else's mind, not mine.
btw, many of those people I hate? They, too, have no ID. We take ID to sign folks up for a computer. There is a large segment of the population who carry not a single piece of documentation (like even, say, a CVS or Safeway card) with their name on it... hence, we see the non-voting segment of the population (you need to show an ID at the polls, see).
Am I being too linear here? Sorry. My Random Generator is at the shop. Kudos.
...oh, one last thing? My personal mottos for creeps can be summed up from quotes I've seen 1) on an Emily Strange shirt of Jilly's 2) on a lapel button I saw Lemmy wearing once: 1) I WANT YOU to leave me alone, 2) Have a nice day somewhere else.

Who needs porn, food and booze with this great entertainment.......I can see why the Kurtz has introduced us...that much is clear.....we Walk the Line As for new entertainment I would like to see.........where to begin
First off, I would like these gutless hack writers to be put on notice....The number one show in my line up goes as follows: Taught noirsh story lines with razor sharp wit and class acted out with intensity......while the viewer only sees the actors from the waist down. Would have of this shit fly on TV if you cut out the craptastic dialouge and pretty faces.....doubtful. Second show would be something like this.....Henry Rollins host a new reality show. Take the most rat faced fucker you know from your hometown.....trick him into thinking he is either gonna win big money/or a hot date.......then send him him to punk rawk bootcamp.....and watch his fat ass die from the strain....or pop out into a productive member of society.....I could go on.....but I am not sure you have room at your empire for the likes of my bloated ideals....While were on the topic of dream bands ( which I think about, but never fess up to)
Nick Cave-vocals
Mike Watt-Bass
Roland S Howard-Guitar
John Vandersclice-guitar
Joh Strannier-Drums
Bang on a Can-backing orchestra
and a slew of guest performers......
while playing to the manipulated sounds of PAINKILLER over a quadraphonic stero PA
Thanks for the welcome back.....

GREAT movie...I wish they would have touched on THE GONG SHOW a little more only because the acting was soooo good when they showed him on the show. Amazing. A movie that more than pleasantly surprised me. I'm not a huge Drew fan but I liked her alot in this movie.
As far as T.V. goes... Sheeesh. It's garbage in my opinion. I mean you can pick out some great stuff out there but it usually gets cancelled or you gotta have cable to get it. I love 'the Simpsons', but I think mainly because it pokes fun at all the things that make our society or culture so rediculous. It's a genuine and clever show. I hate reality shows. I don't like shows like 'Trading Spaces' or 'Queer Eye'. Shows that tell us how we're supposed to look or act according to the sponsors. It's bullshit. However there are some rediculous shows out there that are worth watching as well. I can't really sit here and tell you what is good and what isn't because we are all turned on to different things and we all have different senses of humor and so on. But I think is easy to spot garbage. And it's everywhere.

I have a general reaction like Mr. Smead above. I have to admit, I have dabbled in reality TV, with the first season of The Mole (this is over 3 years ago) and The Osbournes, but even with these shows there seems to be an emphasis on fighting. Kelly and Jack Osbourne have said they are actually friends but they have very short, intense fights; from watching the show, you would think they just hate each other. So the show's creators (who are never shown or described; I think that's worth noting) have decided, for us, that the most intersting parts of the Osbourne household are the conflicts.
Prodding negative reactions out of people, or out-n-out horrifying them, seems to be a strong direction of current TV: Fear Factor, that Shannen Doherty show, Crank Yankers, and Boiling Points (this new candid-camera MTV show where people annoy people and if they sit there and take it for enormous periods of time, they win money).
In defense of reality TV (well, the only defense I can really coem up with for them), sitcoms are (as the British say) bog-boring in a major way.
If I watch TV nowadays, it is The Daily Show, a Conan or SNL recent rerun, some Book TV on C-Span... I like to catch Nigella Bites as Nigella Lawson is one of the most beautiful women on the planet... I would still watch The Osbournes, but it was a more interesting show when they weren't all "stars." I could ramble on but it boils down to-- I still channel-surf sometimes, but rarely find anything.
Oh, and lastly, I think the best sitcoms on TV are The Andy Griffith Show and Leave It to Beaver. More wholesome? Maybe, but, more importantly, just more funny than whatever's on now.

1. I've merely heard the same 2 T Rex songs everyone else has. Favorite glam song? Probably half of Aladdin Sane. That album actually makes me want to dress like Bowie in 1973-74. I can't think of another album that made me want to wear alien drag; that's an accomplishment.
2. I think it's sad to see sex based on non-romantic purposes, but then, I'm probably way too romantic. It should be legal. Lots of things should be legal.
3. Have to second the butterscotch request. I would probably say something really intimidating like, "You are so cool and sexy and talented; I'd like to lick your puddinged ass."
4. No, see answer #1; more like vinyl catsuits, stack heel boots, and violet feather boas.

The movie "Heavenly Creatures" makes me want to fall desperately in love with some creative woman and design our own world. Who knew the butcher responsible for the gore classics like BAD TASTE & DEAD ALIVE could churn up something as breathtaking as HEAVENLY CREATURES. *swoon*

The show is at the Masonic on Phillips. Next to the Longhorn, between Subway and Burger King. 910 Phillips is the addy. The bands that count will go on about 11:00 just so you don't get there and leave before the decent shit comes on.
Oh yeah it's on Saturday the 3rd
Drone sounds like Nirvana mixed with Kyuss and some old school Pixies thrown in for good measure. Legbone is straight up hardcore skate punk of the Dead Boys/GC5/"Fugazi eating meat" variety. But they both pretty much have their own unique sounds, so trying to describe them using other bands is pretty futile.
And I'm not snubbing football at all man. I was a runningback for Central my damn self. I wasn't any good, but it was still good times.

I love the movie Heavenly Creatures. It's so beautiful yet so raw and brutal. I sampled the murder scene for my demo disc a few years ago. It's chilling to listen to alone without the graphic images.(have you seen "Meet the Feebles"?)
Anyway - I say toss your current problem and buy a Mac. Since the G5 came out you can buy used G4 machines for cheap and even a G3 iMac for next to nothing. I've had NO problems since I switched from a PC and would never go back. Check it out.
