don’t read the news cause it’ll get you depressed. read my blog because it does the opposite. There is not much new around me, me and sam are still planning new videos, scott and glen will make a comeback, sit tight. My mustache taste like milkshake. I’ ve just consumed a milkshake. I’ve been writing new songs, not recording, but writing. i’ve been working at the diner, making phat tips. no new love interest , nor any hate interest. a lady asked for no salt on her hashbrowns, but also asked for looooots of butter on her toast. Picked up a new whiny latino accent. Got some new cd’s i’ll be raving about in a future post. But for now, here you go:
scott and glen
see ya later ralph nater

What do you call a black person who is not American. you can’t call him African American, you can call him african, but that doesn’t mean he is black, there are white people over there. I guess you can just call him/her black, but they aren’t really black, shadows are black, they are dark brown. but also Indians are dark brown, not Indian as in native American, they are a reddish tan, and i hope that you have all learned that native American is the correct term, Indians are folks from India. doy.
Let us just stop being categorized in such simplistic groups. Let us be categorized by how we style our hair.
The Sleazy comb-back side part from the made popular in the 50’s by wally cleaver from leave it to beaver, but also thought to be ‘retro’ in the early 90’s.
The even all around (short version), makes the ears look larger than usual. You know what they say about people with big ears? don’t tell secrets, they’re fucking narks!
The ‘he wears hats so we can’t tell’
The ‘i wanna look like i have a really long rectangle head’
The vintage emo sidepart
The ‘how much am i getting paid to wear this really awkward nascar uniform Halloween costume while you take pictures of me for the whole world to potentially see and i don’t know what my hairs doing, it’s kind of curly, but kind of straight on the sides, but i have sideburns and i use gel”
I’m sure we would start stereotyping hair cuts then. “oh that guy has slicked back hair, he must rape children” or “that guy has short all around hair, he must be into alternative bands like audioslave and hinder”. Or the classic one that i get all the time, and it’s also a Mitch Hedberg reference “oh that guy has long hair, he must smoke pot”.
you ever notice how other people care more about your hair then yourself? maybe it’s just me, people usually feel obligated to give me their two cents about my hair. “you should cut it, it’s too long” … well there are times when i’ll voice my opinion (jesus solicitors) but i usually don’t when i get hair comments, but if i did … ” oh really, well fuck, you should trim down your waist line, you look like a walrus” or maybe if they are those old ignorant folk, still stuck in the 50’s ” hey, you hear they are letting blacks into the sears now? They also are allowed to have chocolate malts over at the burger joint, aint that supposed to get em all jived up and make them rape white girls?” Oh man, they’ll get so heated, they’ll write their fellow politician a complaint.
Thank you ladies and gentelmen, you’re beautiful , i love you.

Beck ? more like HECK! Which is the direction his music is heading.His new song is streaming on his site.
We’ve gotten a rare exclusive listen to his real authentic voice through the album ’seachanges’, he has a really fucking cool voice, and he looks cooler than hell too, and he is friends with some phat artists (devendra and jamie lidell). He looks like he should be writing some freak folk tunes or something of that nature, i’m sure he could do that rather well, but he is just not utilizing his number one insturument: his voice.
And thats what ticks me off about the musical artist Beck.
There is a song on Spoons ‘gimme fiction’ album called ‘i turn my camera on‘ . I’m sure you’ve all heard it. Totally not what the band sounds like. Real high, disco-esque voice. Very misleading, although i kind of like that song at times.
But i was listening to the newest My Morning Jacket album ‘evil urges’ today (drops next month), and there are a couple songs that do the same thing, including the title track. Jim James, the vocalist, has an extraordinarily moving voice** and fails to use it. Consistancy is a strong deciding factor of cds that i’m in love with (Fleet Foxes-Self titled) and when you choose to have songs that don’t accurately describe what you’re really about, it kind of lets me down. Save em’ for a side project. Take the vocalist for glassjaw, he saved all that shit for his shitty side project ‘head automatica’.
**
In conclusion, stop abusing your fame, put out albums as if it’s your freshman release and your future is riding on its success. Hey-Zues fucking Christopherz !

I work at a diner. Situations:
- Man around the age of 55 was heard by me as saying “don’t tase me bro!”
- A man of 65 was riding a Huffy Moutain bike like this :
Other things:
- Pitchfork recently gave No Age- Nouns cd a 9.2 …. Don’t agree.
- Sam and Myself are going to be seeing Dr. Dog In portland in September. 21 and over sorry.
- Sam, Andrew r., Kendra and myself will be seeing Beirut at the end of the month.
- If anybody else wants to go see Fleet Fox at the Doug Fir 7/25 at 9:30 as badly as i do, let me know
- Deer Tick – war elephant probably deserves a 9.2 on pitchfork. but it got a 5.8.
