I like this quote

January 31, 2005

Okay, so I recently decided to view the First 100 of the Top 250 Rated Films at IMDB. I’m going to attempt to accomplish this within one year. Preferably much sooner. See below for disclaimer. Since this is an ever-changing list, I’ve decided to record it here in it’s present form. Rank Title 1. The [...]

We’re playing some bottleneck tonight!

January 5, 2005

The other day I went ass crazy and ordered four guitar slides in an attempt to find one I like. Also, I bought a new set of Elixir strings, .013 – .056. I’ve grown tired of the set of .010s that came with the guitar. Got three of the slides I ordered in, everything arrived [...]

Small WordPress Hack

January 5, 2005

I’m tired of comment spam. However, it’s a fact of life. So, I just run a blacklist which throws all of the spam into the moderation queue. Problem with that is, the spam still has to be dealt with eventually. Earlier I had 72 comments in the queue, these would normally require 73 clicks to [...]

Letters From Colette

January 5, 2005

I opened the drawer of my little desk and a single letter fell out, a letter from my mother, written in pencil, one of her last, with unfinished words and an implicit sense of her departure. It’s so curious: one can resist tears and “behave” very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then [...]

January 4, 2005

So, this morning I decided that I needed a chord book and I remembered having an awesome pocket-sized one when I first started playing back in 1992. Since I’ll probably never locate that copy, I decided to attempt to locate another copy for purchase. Of course, not remembering the name of the book didn’t help. [...]

You know guys, at some point in your lives at least one of your buddies will accuse you of trying to fuck their girlfriend or maybe they’ll think their girlfriend is trying to fuck you, regardless, you’ll think, “Fuck that cocksucker, why in the hell does he think [...]

Hrmph!

January 3, 2005

I think my blog is dropping posts again. According to the page, I didn’t update between November 30th and December 21st and that’s just a load of shit. Update: The blog isn’t dropping posts. It turns out that I am, in fact, a complete moron. Sorry for wasting your time.

Password Protected Posts

January 3, 2005

A lot of people ask me about the Password Protected Posts (PPPs) you see on the page. In truth, there’s nothing interesting hidden behind those passwords. Generally I’ll find somethings on the net that really interest me and I’ll post them on my del.icio.us. However, I don’t have a lot of faith in the internet [...]
