I'm going to start a band...
called Cotton Swab and the Eargasms.
I wish I would've known
The Hold Steady were on PBS tonight.
One crappy thing about hotels is not knowing what the TV channels are and what shows will be on. Most of the time, I can’t even search for listings because I don’t know who the service provider is in any given hotel.
This excites me!
From Wilcoworld.net:
The forthcoming and still-untitled next Wilco album is nearing completion. Jim Scott and the band spent the last few weeks mixing in Jim’s studio in Valencia, California and here’s a list of song titles spied on the reels — note this is not necessarily complete and not in sequence. Deeper Down Conscript (aka I’ll Fight) One Wing Solitaire Wilco...
We saw Sunshine Cleaning yesterday
It’s a really good film. Something I wish I had written. If you can, go see it.
We were also pumped about the previews. Some really cool films coming out. In particular, “Away We Go”. Great cast. Great director. Great writer. I can hardly stand to wait until the summer for it to come out.
It's funny how the people who have all the answers...
I want the angel
Whose dreams are fatal
They cause the snake’s milk to...
– Jim Carroll “I Want the Angel”
I lost another follower. I don't even know who it...
Get yourself a cocktail...Aussie style! →
Don’t sell out. Buy in.
Anxiety Riddles Me
I sent out my first official query letters to agents (and Kevin Smith’s assistant) today. I don’t expect much from it. If I can ever get a place to live, I’m going to send out more hardcore queries to production companies. I have a feeling that’s the way to go.
Ted Hughes' and Sylvia Plath's Son Commits Suicide
I realize Ted has been dead for a decade, but I can’t help but think that with his track record, it’s somehow his fault.
can anyone recommend a good poetry book(s) to me?

Charles Bukowski—“Play The Piano Drunk Like A Percussion Instrument Until The Fingers Begin To Bleed A Bit” or “You Get So Alone At Times That It Just Makes Sense”
thank you!
No problem.

I Love You, Man
We went and saw I Love You, Man. Hilarious.
What’s even more hilarious? We’re in The Villages, so most of the audience was old people. I’m not sure if they knew what they were getting into. About 20 minutes in, the two women in front of us stormed out. We could overhear them saying it was one of the worst things ever. Oddly enough, not even close. No nudity. Not a lot of...

Pitt vs. ETSU
Can it happen? A 16 over a 1? Man, it would screw my bracket, but I’d love to see it.
Does anyone else find the Burger King commercial
with the “little” farmer a bit offensive?
Congrats to the Jayhawks!
(For not ruining my bracket)
O-S-U!!!
COME ON BYRON FUCKING EATON!
Upset special?

Will Kansas fall to NDSU?
They were a D-II juggernaut the last few years.
And they’re keeping it close.
I don’t like your tone….
Come on. You know it’s going to happen to someone. NDSU is a tough team with 4 seniors.
Must keep the faith EP…must keep the faith :)
I assure you, if it happens, it’ll eff up my bracket, so I’m...

Of course...
Old 97’s are playing Mayfest when I no longer live in Tulsa.
I call bullshit.
Butler
has ruined my perfect bracket. I didn’t even make it out of the afternoon session without a blemish.

I'm not sure if I exist
Elise pointed out to me that I don’t have many friends on Facebook, so today, I went through about 1000 people from the University of Arkansas that graduated in 2002 and 2003. I knew a total of 4 people…myself, 2 people that are already my friend and one guy who I knew when I went to a different university but wasn’t friends with.
Really? Out of 1000 people, I found one person,...
After hours of deliberation...
jholla:
We cannot come up with a title any shorter than this:
Determining the Utility and Adaptability of Remote Sensing in Monitoring and Assessing Reservoir Eutrophication and Turbidity for Total Maximum Daily Load Assessments
There must be a better way. I’m estimating that I’ll have to type out and/or write this project name at least 100 times this year.
Copy and Paste is your best...
Don’t try to bleed me, cause I’ve been here before, and I deserve a...

It's not too late

Just like a kid...
So we were on our way back to the hotel from dinner and decided to stop at Publix. While driving through the parking lot, we noticed some people just kind of standing all over and staring at the sky. We quickly deduced that they were launching a space shuttle, so we pulled over and joined them. I really wish we had the video camera or even just the digital camera because it was too awesome to...
