“This one goes out to the ones that still hold true.” — Heads vs. Breakers – Beneficial Wigs
I’m entirely engrossed in The Postal Service. The album is freaking amazing. “Such Great Heights”, “Sleeping In”, “Nothing Better”, and “Recycled Air” are all just astounding songs. It helps that they’re all right in a row on the album also. I also re-acquired Heads vs. Breakers – Apathy is the New Black. It’s great to have the chance to listen to a good band from my town. For some reason I have something against the north shore of Long Island and Nassau County. Well, maybe it’s not so much that I have something against them, but I think the south shore of Suffolk is so much better. Maybe there will be a North-coast vs. South-coast war. I’ll have to pick up a set of brass knuckles or something.
We had the second Wing Night last night. We went to “The Post Office” in Babylon. It’s a nice place. I had never been there before. They have 4 different levels of wing hot-ness over there. They have mild, regular, hot, and chef’s challenge. We ordered some of the regular, hot and chef’s challenge to start. The chef’s challenge were fairly hot, but not really hot enough. So one of my bosses, Pete, said to the waitress, “Ask the chef if he’s making these wings for girl scouts or for men.” Yeah. The next batch of wings looked, smelled, and burned entirely differently. We were all impressed. After 5 or 6 of these multen wings I tapped out. My face went numb. I’m not kidding. I had pins and needles high up on my cheeks.
There are a bunch of cool tee shirts over at prolitarianthreads.com.
I’ve been getting a lot of comment spam on this blog recently. However, there isn’t ever really any spam in the message. I keep getting just blank comments posted to the blog. Could someone explain to me what the point of this is? What good are blank messages? There are no links in it or anything. It’s just blank. I’m blocking the IP block that these posts are coming from now. We’ll see if that helps. I also took some time to fix how this site looks in internet explorer. All of the content should actually appear on the page now without forcing you to scroll side to side. I just want to take this time to reiterate that I hate internet explorer for the hours and hours of pain and suffering it has caused me. Please, if you are still using IE, or any derivate that uses the IE engine, please join the rest of the civilized world and get firefox now. It really is that much better.
In some respects I feel myself returning to a feeling that I haven’t felt in many years. It’s not necessarily any better or worse than how I used to feel. It’s very subtle. It might just be the feeling of the seasons changing and I’m fucking up the time frame. Speaking of the seasons, can I get a “fuck yeah” for Spring? I can’t wait until my first tee shirt only day.
“Again last night I had that strange dream
where everything was exactly how it seemed
no concerns about the world getting warmer
people thought they were just being rewarded
for treating others as they’d like to be treated
for obeying stop signs and curing diseases
for mailing letters with the address of the sender
now we can swim any day in November”
