"you've got a pretty face" during Halloween weekend I might've cried.I need to stop with the midday six hour naps.Found out the co-owner of Tucson's only streetwear spot has been sitting across my AST classroom for the past six or so weeks, told me they're trying to get an SB account..

I am my own God. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our education system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.- Charles Bukowski (1920-1994)

I say "never again" because I like the Killswitch track - that being said, dudes in dresses (especialy strapless ones) are very not metal. Friday, spent way too much time pulling the stretchy top up so that my nips wouldn't show, girls are super silly for wearing those things. Message! You're lying to yourself if you don't think makeup equals false advertising. Jobo put on his marathon gear;

Tuesdays for most, Sundays for me. Definitely slowed down on picking up new music and will continue to do so until I can grab a terabyte external. Tunes are sounding better to my ears these days, I'm actually listening to the words/messages and sonic movement instead of being a snob and assuming I've heard it all before. Albums as a whole is working. I grew up listening to and loving

Almost got into a fistfight over the etymology of the term "yee"; Cro-magnon lapdog Boyle swore it came out of Texas ("yee-haw" maybe, moron) and gave me my first ever death threat. Feeling froggish lilyPaddy? LEAP.

Such said, maybe I'm that guy that needs more; I don't want to be. I don't like setting and having the evening bank on a set of chemical reactions, fair or foul. I do like how kid sister calls, pretty much instantaneously. Let's hope this lasts longer than the rest of the day, and that they're wrong this time.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. Throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.- Mark Twain

I haven't been able to pick a pair up in about a year (people out here don't appreciate that kind of stuff anyhow), but come on Jordan brand. I'd wear these on a field trip to the moon, not even to mow my lawn otherwise.

Poo Pellets > M&M's(arrow, not a greater than sign)After listening to the little catalog of covers I've put together over the last couple years, I had to ask myself: had anything changed? The quality of tracks has improved, but can all that be attributed to superior gear? I'm still very uncomfortable sharing original material with people but have no problem putting spins on other people's work

I sat and recorded a few songs yesterday and got more satisfaction than Snickers promises. Fast Track is working on Vista without a hitch, finally. Sitting with headphones and repeating takes endlessly reminded me a lot of the recordings I did circa 2001. Naturally, this prompted a sweep of the external, like an Easter egg hunt - I found most of my high school candies and some rabbit droppings,

Hadn't stayed up all night leisurereading in a long while, quite refreshing - Atlas Shrugged has finally picked up the pace (picante-style), 700 or so pages in. Like The Fountainhead before it, Ayn Rand's pieced together a story like clockwork, cogs and dials, events and ideals that fit together and putter along like typefaced machinery. Funny and fitting, I guess, that the story's protagonists

Being without laptop for a week blew, but was liberating at the same time. I found I'd been spending way too much of my days waiting for new Grizzlemania videos on Youtube, updated SModcasts, and hypebeasting sneakers and accessories that I can't afford anymore. I'd also been acquiring volumes of music without listening to any of it. Must listen to whole albums instead of just random subsets of

I was supposed to be back in town on Thursday, and I, like an asshole, missed the last flight out of Tucson. At $263 to transfer ticket dates, I probably would have been better off buying a new one the same evening. Friday we left early early and made the 4p flight. Recognized tall white man and little Filipina at the baggage carousel as T Joel and T Pinky from Chicago (the city, not the

is a metalcore band from Boston, Massachusetts, who some credit as being one of the pioneers in the metalcore scene. They were together from August 1991 until November 1998, when they disbanded after a less than successful US tour. Members include Brian Fair, now lead vocalist for Shadows Fall; Mike D'Antonio, bassist and founding member of Killswitch Engage; and Pete Cortese [KSE's original

Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft
