Dr-Evil-Like Volcano Lair For Sale

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Sited upon small volcanic cone in the high desert midway between Las Vegas & Los Angeles, this 60-acre retreat seems to cap the mountain top with its dome-like roof: Concrete and truss beams form its dome allowing the interior to embrace 360 degrees of stark, strong almost lunar landscape. Main house of two bedrooms, 2 [...]

Sorry is all I can say…”

1994? 96 maybe?

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

Why did it have to change into this? Everyone hates when you’re forced to change plans, but drastic shifts in society which work against you, which you try and fight for the next 5 or so years, watching yourself fail over and over again and praying for something to change. They say they are happier, [...]

It’s like…

It’s like you “try to feel better”, and you think you do (or you want to think you do), but then you get sad again and it just feels weird.
From an era of better weather, which I keep praying that it will return and these horrible Januaries and Februaries will go away forever:

Beet Impersonators (Doug’s “The Beets” With Real People)

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

If you’re as old as me, you remember the 1990s Nickelodeon cartoon Doug. The children in the show listened to a music group “The Beets”, a hybrid of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Ramones, and The Clash.
Here are some real people dressing up like The Beets and singing to their songs “I Need Mo’ [...]

Something I discovered a long time ago but don’t think I posted until today

I most likely didn’t post this here before, as it doesn’t turn up in a search. But I discovered this goofy act of plagiarism a long time ago:

“Styxette”’s Last Song

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

Apparently while recording the album “Show Me The Way” was on, they hired a new Bon Jovi-like singer and recorded a dance song which doesn’t sound anything remotely like Styx.

Breathe…

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

There’s a song I like to listen to called “Please” by Nine Inch Nails. The chorus comes in with a sharp buzz (including his screechy voice), like a surge of electricity. Every time I hear it, I can feel that I’m inhaling my second wind on a day in high school when I was heavily [...]
