Aural Mood Enhancement

Even if you wake up to a crash of thunder and the sound of rain running down every outside surface of your bedroom, and you can’t quite get up on time, and you have to drive 22 miles in pouring rain to work, it’s hard not to smile when Mozart’s Piano Sonata No. 15 comes […]

Baby Boy, You’re Only Funky As Your Last Cut

First, I need to note that my ability to listen to “Rosa Parks” by OutKast on repeat for long periods of time should be recognized as at least “Herculean”, if not “superhuman”.
In other news, tonight is the long-awaited-by-me sneak of Sin City at a local theater, and I’m pretty excited. This thing stars […]

*suck*

I’ve gotta give a shout-out to the sucrologists at Jolly Rancher– these Screaming Sours I picked up are pretty good stuff. Seems like they’re gunning for the Sour Patch Kids. We all know that the Kids are the superior product, but I’m just sayin’… these aren’t bad. Puckery!
Half the bag is gone. […]

Thanka Eassa Bunny! Buck-ba-guuuck!

Yesterday was a pretty good day, for all the rain and wind.
There were no blanket statements against Science or The Coloreds or anything like that at church, so that was cool. No, seriously, a pretty nice service, and I salute the kid two seats over for his awe-inspiring job of keeping the congested snorts […]

Does Super Saturday Follow Good Friday?

When I woke up at 11 this morning, I felt like I’d wasted too much of what I knew was going to be a beautiful day, so I hustled to get myself going ASAP.
Shower, juice, backpack inventory, a cookie and a handful of cereal, [all to the sounds of the Dungeon Family on repeat] and […]

Scattershot

I am a pretty awesome insomniac sometimes.
Someone out there named their computer something surprisingly brainy, and I think it’s cool.
Ian was a little loose tonight… or sloppy? I think I’ll blame the venue.
“Today” was amazing, though, and I got to hear a new song.
Rahzel is not human. Seriously. It is not possible. […]

Pretty Good Thursday

I really did almost let Easter sneak by me… rabbitlike.
I guess it would have hit me when I walked into Target sometime next week– finding all the Butterfinger Eggs were 50% off– that I had missed out on something important. Obviously, this doesn’t say anything too flattering about my spiritual life.
So, Sunday morning involves […]

The TLiad

The fact that it’s turned pretty outside again made for a really great day… for about 2 minutes. Then I got to the end of Charles Allen and faced The Stoplight That Would Not Change. A line us of eventually braved our way past the crimson cyclops that kept us from our livelihoods, […]

Smith’s Olde Bar - March 17th, 2005

Within a few minutes, I was about 98% sure that I was the only one in the room who was there to see the opening act. Bearded Guy With Unnecessary Corduroy Sportscoat And Sock Hat clocked in as the most likely alternate. He’d read a few Pitchfork reviews in his day, or my […]

Betrayed By The Can

It just doesn’t make any sense.
It’s the kind of thing that you just assume could never happen. I mean, it’s a part of your life– something that you take for granted– and then… everything’s different.
I hope I can handle this.
I… think I’ve become immune to Pringles CheezUms.
Really. They’re just not that Cheezy to […]
