Aint No Right

These two stories are not as good as those some have posted, but mildly amusing: - I was once standing on a crowded bus and the woman sitting right below me was having an in-depth Blackberry Messenger conversation with the guy she was having an affair with (the guy was also cheating on his wife/girl...

One thing that is interesting about that ad is the really high price of the computer, compared to the cost of computers today.

Computers and most consumer electronics are one of the few products that have significantly deflated in price over the past 30 years.

I was in High School in the mid-90's when Green Day first became big. Most of the kids in my school were really in to them and Blink 182 and other California "punk" bands. I remember thinking, "Wow, punk really has become popified, commercialized and made to appeal to middle-America". I hated that m...

Artemis, listen to the CBC Q interview with him, it's quite interesting. I vaguely remember hearing about the case, but I learned a lot about it from that interview.

I respect him for allowing himself to make brief cameos in that show for his wife, but drawing the line at the real bullshit aspects.

This video is awesome. Inger shows you "her fur." Also a young and pissy Dave makes an appearance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15qAIvq_650&feature=youtube_gdata_player Is the long haired goth chick Casey? Nope. But a Casey wannabe, for sure. Casey was and is far lovelier. I assume that is whoeve...

The story in the first video, which I'd never heard before, about the shower stall pool full of fruit, champagne and girls was pretty funny/cool.

Hasn't Pete said the same thing several times over the years?

I was going to post about the pet store refusing to take back the fish that is terrorizing my tank I bought the other day because I didn't have the receipt, but then I read what mockbee posted and that annoyed me way more than the lady at the pet store. You should have just done something like this...

OK, since this show was in my hometown, I can correct him and say that the WWF "show" would have been several blocks down the same road, not across the street. :know: Also, I talked to the guy who did sound at this show (I've played the same club and he still worked there until a few years ago) and...

I met Avril years ago when that Skater Boy song had just come out through a mutual friend...say what you want about her music, she struck me as a pretty nice young lady... Around 2002 I showed up unexpectedly to a club I booked shows at on a night I did not book. When I asked the promoter who was p...

True story: Apparently Neil Armstrong used to tell unfunny jokes about the moon and then say "Ah, I guess you had to be there".

Wherever I go around the world, I can spot Americans. They are usually either obese, loud, obnoxious or rude which seems to be amplified in foreign areas where people don't speak "American" (I can cite several examples of this during my recent 2 week trip to Europe). I say this as someone who loves ...

I just got back from France and the availability of great wine at such ridiculously low prices blew my mind.

My wife figured out a few years ago that she was lactose intolerant (she was raised by old-school Polish parents who grew up on farms where milk was a diet staple and things like "lactose intolerance" were too "sciency" to be real). Anyway, she's tried virtually every type and brand of alternative m...

The timing of your post is interesting because I was listening to the Road Leads EP yesterday for the first time in about a year and I was thinking I should finally get around to checking out their other stuff (I bought that EP shortly after it came out in 2005 and have never got anything else since).

I'll buy the Been Caught Stealing Handcuff CD.

How much for shipping to Canada? (Just name a reasonable round price and that's cool)

Several years ago, after Ágætis byrjun, Sigur Ros was offered over $1M to use one of their songs in a car commercial. They were tempted because to that point in their career they had not yet grossed $1M. This was probably a wise decision on their part, because since then they have built up a large l...

I really am curious about why the foot was sent to the Conservative party headquarters. It's a really odd thing to do. There was a quote pulled from his blog thing about how he was upset necrophilia was not allowed, maybe it was some misguided attempt to draw attention to his 'cause'/get it legalis...

Eric looks like he has a bad case of the Heroins.

It's a "lyric" video; these are regularly released now and usually precede an actual video.

Yeah, I know that. My point was that it would have been fine is this was the actual video.

Artemis, all of your posts about your work makes me think you work in The Office (i.e. from the TV show).

That video would have been cooler without the lyrics flashing on the screen.
