One of my older videos showed up on Pre-order Pushers. The commenters kinda slammed me to death over it, but I stand by it.

when last I checked, livejournal wasn’t friendly enough with moblie phones. or at least it isn’t friendly to folk like me who refuse to pay for blogging software.
I’ve been posting my garbage life here:

Might have some people over next saturday. Anyone up for some Halo and beer?

No?

Ok, we’ll play sissy games and drink apple juice. it’ll be fun either way.

I got a Montana quarter. It has a picture of an Arby's on it.

i’m just doing what I normally do where you don’t look to see if I’m doing it.

I need a place to stay. anyone know someone who’s looking for a roommate or maybe has a place I can crash for a month or so? I should be able to afford my own apartment in no time, but my current status is prompting me to want to move sooner rather than later and since I’ve just started a job, I’m waiting on a first paycheck.

on the bright side… I did sell my first car yesterday, which means I’m on the board already.

Today I sold my first car. It was pretty great.

I also had the misfortune of trying to explain concepts like market growth vs actual market to some friends. They just couldn’t get around the even if a market is healthy and experiencing growth over the previous year, it is still not as potentially profitable to be in as a much larger market with a larger untapped base. Once your small market fills up or bottoms out, theres no where to go. With the larger market you could easily surpass the maximum and continue to grow.

So basically.. yes Japan’s 150 Million population may have a higher percentage of gamers now… but the 1.3 billion people in North America and Europe are a much larget market. Japanese games are over. Western games now lead. Get used to it.

I had to drive a bit today. why do people bother with this clutch and gear shift business? automatic does all that for you and you can use that free hand to eat, play with the radio, or giving offensive gestures out the window.

Also, while I’m told the MX-5 Miata is fun to drive, I couldn’t enjoy it that much. I’m right about at the height limit. Its not enought that I’m sitting on the floor, but I couldn’t even stretch out!

That said, there are some sweet rides on the lot and I should be able to get a good price on something soon..

So as screwy as my life seems to be at any given second lately, I still want to go.

BUT, I’ve taken a job with mandatory saturdays. There is a chance I may work that day, DRIVE UP that evening, and spend saturday night and sunday communing with the freaks.

things only really got nuts saturday night last year anyway.

I’m merely posting this as a heads up of a possibility. it could change drasticly in the next few weeks, days, hours, minutes.

Oh, and Ted Leo is coming to Madison

http://www.myspace.com/tedleo

He’s playing Club 770, which is on campus, an all ages no drink/no smoke place. its a thursday night, april 26 at 8 PM. don’t have ticket or opening act info, but that place is a hole in the wall so it’ll probably only be 5-10 max and maybe some local boys opening.

PLEASE COME OUT TO THIS. Madison has many things, but not the DC rock scene, and Ted Leo is one of those guys I haven’t seen in AGES. He just put out a new album which kicks so much ass i’ve listened to it every day in the last week. you want a copy, I will make one for you.

FUCK.

is awesome.

I’ve been going really nuts updating powet as much as possibly lately.

I have like 3 videos I want to get done right now but don’t have my camera so I’m SOL.

in the mean time, i’m putting up 6 posts a day on powet. because fuck, NO ONE ELSE IS POSTING ANYTHING.
