"Throw your crystal ball up against the wall. Cause that shit's broke."
(Nostradumbass, Ninja Gun)
I don't know what this says about me by adding another fictional version of myself, but I just liked the look and the potential for hilarity, so I had too. For now Stickfigure Tim is here till the end of the story arc. As it get's towards the end of the arc I'll decide whether to keep him or not.
"My Daddy was a bankrobber. But he never hurt nobody. He just loved to live that way. And he loved to steal your money."
(Bankrobber, The Clash)
Yup Unshelved introduced me to xkcd, it's awesome and deals with math, charts, and nerd culture. One comic that stands out in my mind is this one.
By the way, let me know what you think of stickfigure Tim.
"Tonight Tonight, he's gonna get it right. Even losers can get lucky sometimes. All the freaks go on a winning streak. In a perfect world, all the geeks get the girls."
(The Geeks Get the Girls, American Hi-Fi)
That's about it.
"You used to hold aspiration. You couldn't see the limitations. Even in your youth you were unsurpassed. But driven by grief and it couldn't last."
(Gun In Your Hand, Lagwagon)
Yea
"Up all night long. And there's something very wrong. And I know it must be late. Been gone since yesterday. I'm not like you guys."
(Aliens Exist, Blink-182)
Yea
"Cause You Wanted More. More Than I could Give. More than I could handle. In a life that I can't live."
(You Wanted More, Tonic)
Yea
"And if he thinks nobody's looking he'll kiss her while she's cooking and she'll smile, and say life you know, twists and turns."
(Front Yard Screamers (Kitchen Kissers), Ninja Gun)
Yup yup.
"I don't wanna talk. I don't wanna rock. I don't wanna wait by the phone, and, I don't wanna tell you I love you. don't wanna tell you I love you, anymore."
(I Don't Wanna Rock, Bowling for Soup)
Indeed
"If we'd only stayed together. I might not have fallen apart. But the words you served destroyed my planet. I'll stall before I start. I'll stall before I start anything at all."
(Her Words Destroyed My Planet, Motion City Soundtrack)
I never posted it but I didn't get the internship at Pure, so my contact forwarded me to a guy at the company listed above. I'm excited and hoping this works out, so it's back to New York.
According to thesaurus.com.
"Don't want to be your monkey wrench (fall in, fall out)."
(Monkey Wrench, Foo Fighters)
Yup, Pistolia is going into the studio to record a doo-wop record haha.
"Well he was fueled by a lack. Drew inspiration from a need. So many problems to crack. And mouths to feed."
(Rascal King, Mighty Mighty Bosstones)
Two days later and I'm still feeling it.

(Hello Dearest Love, Appleseed Cast)
Yup Pistolia live from Delaware tonight at Mojo 13
"Wait, after all, he did get us across the world and back, Hell yea."

After Sallie Mae's cut I have about 18 dollars left, woho.
"I don't know what, they want from me. It's like the more money we come across. The more problems we see."
( Mo Money Mo Problems, Notorious B.I.G.)
Lot's of white out on this one haha.
Yup I sat outside for a bit. I would say I got some sun but I was sitting in the shade haha.
"And I don't think I have ever seen a soul so in despair. So if you want to talk the night through. Guess who will be there?"
(Roll To Me, Del Amitri)
Yea.
"No, I still don't know. I still don't know. Cuz I, I still don't know."
(Random I Am, Millencolin)
I just noticed it.
"But when I'm seeking knowledge. Either simple or abstract. The facts are with science."
(Science Is Real, They Might Be Giants)
Unshelved was doing another installment of their book club when today they offered up volume one of Erika Moen's autobiographical comics. She has long since retired her comic, but it's still up and it was awesome. It combines funny everyday moments, personal reflection and sex. The most interesting thing I find is that she is(or was) a lesbian, but she is married to a man. Which reminds me of one the many infamous quotes of Kevin Smith, "All every woman really wants, be it mother, senator, nun, is some serious deep-dickin'." That aside it is a very well drawn and written comic. It only took me a day to read six years of comics (She seem to update only once a week) so check it out.
Haha, I did a review.
"So take a sigh as long as the war's been going on in your heart tonight."
(Little Dawn, Ted Leo & The Pharmacists)

Met her on the bus back to philly.
"'Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess. Singin' drunken lullabies"
(Drunken Lullabies, Flogging Molly)
Yup.
"'Cause everyone's your friend in New York City. And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty. The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see. But the best thing about New York City is you and me."
(New York City, They Might Be Giants)
So here's the game. If you know what I'm talking about, chose a side (personally I'm on Team Mike). If you don't want to chose just say both, because I'm more interested if you, my dear readers, know what I'm talking about.
The game is afoot.
