BIG BROTHER LIKES COCA-COLA |
Does anyone else find it a little disturbing that Coca-Cola is running a summer promotion where they can just drop out of the sky on you?
I can only hope to win and then greet them waving two giant bottles of Moutain Dew.

Back off St. Cattykins, I'm just doing laundry. That's no sin.

Come on Nordstrom's. You can charge $300 for a pair of shoes but give us THAT as a display? Ugliest dislay ever.
ROCK-A-BYE Friday, May 28, 2004 |
Goodnight Sarah.
WAIT...WHAT? |
I swear this giant slab of asphalt wasn't there when I left this morning.
WHAT TIME IS IT? |
Too much on my mind to sleep. Today could be a very uncomfortable day. I made a choice that could make a lot of people unhappy.
We'll see.
[UPDATE 10:55AM] Okay, so that was a little more dramatic than needed. I was offered a new job last night and wasn't sure how people would react. But all is good, and what's even better is that the job is very familiar to most of you...

BOUNTY HUNTERS Wednesday, May 26, 2004 |
Boba Fresh is more feared because of his resealable packaging.
THAT'S FREEDOM, BABY |
This morning I dropped several pretzel sticks and one slice of cheese into our roaring garbage disposal...
...just because I can.

WAVE OF MUTILATION Tuesday, May 25, 2004 |
I've know about the Pixies for some time but never really went searching for anything they did. I'm currently listening to their new greatest hits album, Wave of Mutilation, and I have to say I'm a fan.
In a related topic, Connie, I bought a Pixies album from iTunes today.

I DON'T GET IT Monday, May 24, 2004 |
I had a revelation today in regards to all the junk e-mail in my inbox.
I was reading what they were all offering and there seem to be three basic types of spam mail.
1.) Porn
2.) Debt assistance
3.) Overnight medications
Now, the porn I understand. That's a huge part of what the internet is founded on. But debt assistance and medications? If anyone is going to help me with my money, it's not someone I found via spam mail. And why would I order medication online when I can drive a block to one of the thousand Walgreens or Sav-ons in this city?
I just don't get it.

It's not a real Jewish deli unless they serve pickles and sauerkraut.
5-0 Friday, May 21, 2004 |
Just saw my first LIVE Los Angeles high speed chase and it was HELLACOOL!
We saw the police chopper come roaring by our windows like fifty feet from the building and a few floors lower than us! YEEEEEAH!

HOOTIE-HOO! Wednesday, May 19, 2004 |
On the way to lunch today, my friend Gayle (who's what? Seven months preggers?) was given the what's-goin'-on-sweet-thing look by none other than Redman.
It was incredible.
Hootie-hooooo!

WHAT'S MY NAME!? Tuesday, May 18, 2004 |
I was late to work this morning because L.A. traffic sucks.
Okay, it was actually because I was playing Def Jam Vendetta and left late, but traffic still sucked.

DEAR VH1 & BLENDER Monday, May 17, 2004 |
About a month ago now, Blender released its list of the "Worst Songs of All Time" or something like that.
Connie and I watched VH1 Most Awesomely Bad Songs yesterday, which was done with Blender. While most of the choices were indeed horrible songs, they didn't have anyone on to defend why the songs are awesome. Connie and I disagreed on many of their picks.
One of my personal all time favorites, "Final Countdown" by Europe, made the list (number 16). If you break down the song by sections, for example: it's synthesizer heavy, lyrically hilarious, and vocally nothing special, it's a bad song.
But when you put them all together, it's one of the GREATEST 80's rock songs EVER! I want it to be played while they're lowering me into the ground during my funeral! And "We Built This City" by Starship as their number one? Please!
Dear VH1 & Blender,
You're both fools. Do you not remember disco? How could Starship even make this list with an entire decade of horrible music out there?
We built this city on rock and roll and you're no longer welcome!
And VH1, leave Best Week Ever on the table on your way out.
Sincerely,
- DMS

THEY'RE JUST...GONE |
The problem with moving 3/4's of the way across a continent is that moving things tends to be an issue.
For example, most of my once illustrious CD collection is now floating in a magic void between Libertyville, Illinois and Los Angeles, Cali.
I'd say roughly 1/4 of my collection is either an empty CD case with no matching CD or a CD with no matching case. Orphaned by my poor packing before I left (okay, there was no packing).
Stone Temple Pilots, Core, if you're out there, stay strong. I'll find you.

This album was on display in a hodge-podge of crappy CDs near the checkout line at Ralph's on Thursday.
I almost bought it.

AAAAAAND, WE'RE BACK Thursday, May 13, 2004 |
And no. This isn't the over-hyped site that I had envisioned in my head.
Guess who talked me into getting this thing up again? And on top of that, I've rejoined the Blogger family.
As you can see, the last time I used Blogger was almost a year and a half ago, and there's a ton of really, really, really poorly written crap under this post. I beg you not to look.
So uh, yeah. Hi.
