i am having a party in my pants and all are invited. at the party we will listen to Q and not U. maybe El Guapo too.   rhyming party in my pants!!

since you kiddies have all been so good, i am going to give you a new song to enjoy. it's a good one, clever and catchy. i dont like everything that Brendan Benson has done, but when he is on, he is really good. (right click - save as)
Brendan Benson - Unfortunate Guy

Ben posted the following Dan Bern lyric as an away message; "I said all I need is a wide open space to set forest fires in." or something to that effect. When pressed to explain how it is possible to have a forest fire in a wide open space, where presumably there is no forest, Ben got very defensive, downright hostile, and began making paranoid accusations. Could it be that I tapped into some deep well of insecurity and mental imbalance?
If anyone has any ideas, about the song or Ben, let me know.

hey everybody,
your kisses are like acid, but i love them.

words from a man much wiser than myself.

so it looks like i am going to be heading up to bard a week early. come party with me everyone.

also this movie is quite good,

American Splendor is a very smart movie, and as much as I hate to say so, it outdoes "Derrida", the documentary about that philosopher, in the way it approaches and even "deconstructs" the bio form. And it is not at all pretentious Solanum Macranthum about it, unlike "Derrida" with its deconstructionist, "we're filming Derrida look at footage we showed earlier! How insightful!" methods.
The point is, see it.

I don't know why I think this is a possibility, but if anyone in New York reads this by 3 pm, go to this show:

THE POLYPHONIC SPREE -[ Dallas Texas], TOTAL PRAISE GOSPEL CHOIR - [Brooklyn, NY]
Date & Time: 8/16/2003 3:00 PM

I am very excited, especially since I thought it already happened.

Oh, and until someone responds about the songs that I am posting, so that I know someone is downloading them, I am going to leave these two up and repost the links every so often. (remember, right click - save as)
OMD - Electricity
American Analog Set - Hard to Find

My dog has recently decided to start eating metal. This worries me a little. She has eaten, or at least chewed off, zippers on pants, the zipper on my bag, some A/V cables, staples in a wall, and the list goes on. Interestingly, she does not simply chew on whatever happens to be lying around, she actively seeks out new metal to eat. Earlier today she knocked a container of small nails off a table and was attempting to lick them up when I caught her. Even now, somewhere in the depths of the apartment, I can hear her chewing. I am not sure why she does this, we give her vitamin supplements that have iron, so I don't think that is the problem. Anyone have ideas?

Electricity... what a bastard. Really let us down yesterday. But it's ok, because I know that I can do electricity one better every time. It is because I have one of these:

Yes. The power of 31,000 brush strokes a minute right in my hand. It makes me feel more confident, more like a man. In fact, I think it's sort of what owning a gun might feel like. Most importantly, it is a personal victory over electricity. Take that electric power! I own you. And I can put you in my mouth.
