notes from your friend and humble narrator

last couple of days in OZ

2008-05-17T12:13:00.000-07:00

its been a whyle since i have last blogged about my trip but...ill get to that in a min. its not like people read this thing anyway. i went back to manly to get some swordfish asked kathryn if she wouldnt mind to join me, but she had a busy day at work so i went anyway. the swordfish was great, too bad i didnt have a chance to eat it all outside. the wind really picked up and i had to go inside. mind you i didnt want to but the people that worked there told me i had better do so. the wind was knocking over umbrellas.

the next day i had some money to spend. i think it was about 200 bucks and i didnt want to get it converted back to canadian, so i wanted to spend some money. i saw this thing for a whale watching tour. i got down to the harbor again where the opera house is. i talked to someone down there that asked me to go over where he was. he said that its one of his flyers and that the whales are not going to be out till mid may. so that was a little disappointing. i went on another tour around the harbor. then i found the other ice bar and i must say that i was a little disappointed. for 30 bucks( i saved 10 for going on that boat ride with kathryn) you get 30 min and you get a free drink. the bar had ice sculptures that was cool and the glasses are made of ice, but its only one room and when i got there most of the sculptures had been either broken or some was melted from people touching it. so when i got in there was 2 other people from i cant remember where and the bar tender was from norway. the other 2 people in there was cold and didnt even last the 30 min. i think they were in there for about 10 min and it was too cold for them. i talked to the bar tender and i said i was from canada, the other 2 told me that " so this is basically your backyard then" i just laughed and said pretty much. they had their jacked all zipped up and trying to stay warm but i was just talking with it unzipped. before my time was up i ordered another drink. the little buzzer thing went off so i had 5 min remaining. but when i got my drink i tipped the bartender 5 bucks so he told the people at the desk to turn off my buzzer and i could stay there until i finished my drink. i asked my brazilian friends if they wanted tos go for a drink that night around the corner at scruffy Murphy's. DRAG QUEEN KARAOKE was something to see i guess. after spending my money i was given more drinks from junior. that night was the first night i ended up getting drunk. i threw up 2 times and i was surprised that i didnt throw up on the shuttle bus to the airport. when i got there i was fine and got on the plane and went home.

the whole time i was wondering if i was too late to see my grandmother before she died. the whole time i was thinking if we can go faster so i can get there on time. so when i got home my sis asked me if i wanted to see my grandmother and that she thought that i should. i spent a couple of hours before i was tired and told her good night. those where the last words i spoke to her. she died that night. but at least she stayed alive untill i got home. this i was told was about a week and a half she lasted. ill blog more later on my cuz's trip down here and my new luck with lavalife and plenty of fish and of olga from russia that coming down here to work and wants to meet me from lava life. here is a pic of me and the Brazilians.

trip comming to a close.

2008-04-28T18:42:00.000-07:00

on sat i went to go meet my uncle. he told me to be at his place for 530. i told him id be there but i wanted to take the operahouse tour first. so of course this being me and i have only been to the opera house everyday since i have been here. some days more than one. its almost like im being dragged there. one day i decided to walk in any direction. just see where i ended up. i started walking in the other way of the opera house....guess where i ended up? you guess it. i think i have been there about 8-10 times or more.anway i had to take a taxi to get to my uncles on time.it ran about 21 bucks. so we meet up and i had supper over there. later on over coffee they asked me what else i wanted to do. i said the blue mountains. http://www.bluemts.com.au/

so they ended up taking me there and paying for everything! my food, rides there, everything. something that was unexpected. i wanted to at least pay for the food but that was not going to happen. so i enjoyed meeting them, but i was told it wasnt the first time. when i was too young to remember i meet them in Saskatchewan. his face did look like i have meet him somewhere before. so i might take a day tour tomorrow if i can to the wine yards and see those. i love OZ wine and i wouldnt mind to see where it is made.

when i did the bridge climb here someone told me about this video someone made before all the security was put in. so i had to see this video for myself http://youtube.com/watch?v=OgKljHgKv9k now being up there and knowing how bad the wind is sometimes its hard for be to believe that someone would do this. i was up there but there is a path this guy didnt take. he has no safety things on him at all. this is fucked up. and also they found a shopping cart full of beer up there before the safety things were installed. i just wonder how they got it up there..lol. it would be one hell of a place to have a beer though

sydney

2008-04-25T18:48:00.000-07:00

its been a little while since i last did one of these but then again im in Sydney and i have soo much to do in such a little time.

first night here i got in, went to the hostel that lisa liked. this time i choose to only be in a room with 4 people. what a mixture of people. there are 2 people from Brazil, and one from hong kong. been talking quite a bit to the Brazilians. they are nice,even thought one of them cant speak a word of English. then i went to get some food and the paper. i started to read the paper after putting the food away and then i thought to myself. what the fuck are you doing reading the paper. the reason you are here is to see the opera house and its soo close and you are just sitting here reading the paper? what are you stupid? so i walked down there and took some pics. i have to go back at night to get some better ones. and im going there today to get some day shots and take the tour. when i walked up there i the first night walked in to get some gifts for people ( so far i have bought a spoon for my mom from where ever i went. i have about 9 of them for her so far!) then i decided that i might as well see something from there seeing how i dont know when the next time ill be here. the first thing i asked was can i walk in the way im dressed, i thought there might be a dresscode or something from that place. but there wasnt and i went to see the serpents teeth http://www.sydneyoperahouse.com/whatson/TheSerpentsTeeth.aspx
it was in one of the smaller places but at least i could say that i was there.

next day i went to get the bridge climb done and over with. the story bridge was 80 metres above sea level.and this one is 134 metres above Sydney Harbour i got quite the good pic taken of me from both places but i must say that i like the one from here better, there is just something about the opera house in the background thats great. so out of the 3 bridges you can climb in the world i have now done 2 of them and i dont think thats too bad. maybe ill go to =new Zealand to get the last one out of the way. walked around for a bit like i usually do

last night. had a great time with Kathryn. meet up with her at the town hall steps. yesterday was anzac day http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANZAC_Day. so i have never seen the streets so empty in some places. i was kind of weard, i almost got the feeling from 28 days later when he walks through a busy part in London and no one was there. she took me to a bunch of places including the aquarium, a powerboat ride in the harbor. this was great the fast boat, the sharp turns , everything was great. ( if you are reading this kathryn now you can hear the song that i was thinking of when i was on that boat) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BezTAd-9Mc0.
and that day tripper song that i told you about with the day pass http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2UYRoti-tY

from there went to manly i think ill go back to have some swordfish from this one place. anyway..lol. there i was introduced to this game thats only played on anzac day, other wise its illegal. its called 2up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-up. now that was an experience. the first place we played was in the back of this bar. it was outside in what looked like a back alley. and here there was a bunch of people yelling and patting their heads and tails with money that they were going to bet. i wish i would have been able to see the look on my face because it would have been priceless. literally it looked to me like one of those gambling games where there are 2 animals in the center and people bet on what one was going to win and what one was going to die. but once you get into it and you realize that these people are honest with the other persons money i started to bet there. well the one time anway. people that bet on heads holds onto the the other persons money, sometimes it got up to 250 on a coin toss. later on when that place closed down for the day we went back to the city and tried to find some other places that was playing. at this point i was up 10 bucks. found another place just by my hostel (another place lisa said was good and now i know why) Scruffy Murphy's. i tried my turn at being the spinner....ya i dont think i should have done that. i tossed 5 odds and lost the 20 bucks i was betting on heads. then i came back and won some another 10 bucks on some more betting. so i guess in the end i ended up even on the night now that i look at it. it was fun and i have to play again. ill going to make myself a kip at home and practice so i can actually flip the coins. the embarrassment of not being able to flip the coins was...wow. anyway after that went to cheer and had a couple more drinks. i was a good night over all and one i wont forget.

ohh

at the operahouse i ate there and it was basically a buffet style there. i thought it would be a menu or something but i was wrong. i had put my stuff on a table beside a chair and someone took the chair. this older lady. so i had to eat some of my meal standing up

first thing last.

2008-04-22T05:47:00.000-07:00

when i first got here i look a look at this little thing they have over here in the hostle. its this little thing with cards on it to differnt places. i looked at this one called ice lounge. http://www.chillon.com.au/ and i thought to myslef i want to go here. later on i found out that henry rollins was doing to do a spoken word thing here and was luckey enought to get a ticket to a 3rd show that was just added. so then i wanted to put 1+1 and get a great night out. but this was not to happen. it says on the back of the card open 7 days a week from 12pm till late. i dont know what they think is late around here but its not late. rollins was GREAT and seeing him in person is a must for anyone. he gives it his all and puts on a great show. he started just after 8 and didnt take any breaks till 11. infact he only went for his water bottle once the whole time. i bought a tshirt and his cd. then after this i went over to the ice lounge to make my night complete. but this was not to happen the fucking thing was closed. one person went to it later on as i was just about to call from outside. i asked him when it closed and he said on sunday 930 and mon-sat1030. i went on that great ocean road day tour today and that was good. took lots of pics. got back to the hosetle at about 950. just great if i can get my laundry together and then rush off i could just make it for one drink so i can say that atleast i was there for one drink. i got my things together and it was only 10. great 30 min to get there...i can do this. i make it there in 10 min flat. then its not even open. so there is one thing so far that i wanted to do that i cant., im leaving tomorrow for sydney. i cant wait.

maybe they will have some place bar/lounge thats made of ice. and maybe just maybe they will be open past 930.

so apparently im a collingwood football club supporter now

http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/

i went to try and get henry rollins spoken word tickets for tonight, but they didnt have any. so i got one for a 3rd show that they just added. its on monday and im in t he last row. but at least im there. so i found out that the Melbourne Cricket Club was around where i was going to be.
so i decided to go to a second game in 2 days. i had fun at the last game so why not. i had to wait until 5 for the gates to be open. so i went on their tour of th building and they had a sports museum also. anway i ended up getting a general admission ticket that cost 10 bucks less and i was at ground level. i was listing to music on my ipod touch when someone asked me about it and someone else in that family asked me if i wouldnt mind moving over a seat so he can sit with his son. i said yees and started to talk to them. they eventually asked where i was from and then we got talking about football and everything else under the sun. i told them about last nights game and then they asked me who am i cheering for. i told them i went for (insert name later.) and then they told me that tonight im a official collingwood football club supporter and put a hat on my head. i thought it wasnt going to go any farther than that but then they asked for the hat back so they can sign it and then gave it to me! people i had just meet gave me a member
2008 hat for free. i still cant believe that someone would do that and just after talking to them for 20 or so min. they said i was brave that i was out here all by my self maybe that had something to do with it. so anyway my new team lost a heart breaker.later on at the end i asked them if i can take their pic ( that ill be posting later because my cellphone is charging). this moment will last for a long time.

afl(Australian Football League)

2008-04-18T16:27:00.000-07:00

i was going to go yesterday with erin(sis's friend) but that didnt end up working out. something came up or something. i know she was going to go out of town for the weekend. it would have been nice to have someone there that actaully knew what was goingon and simple things like what team was the home side. i didnt know who to cheer for so i simply looked around me and looked for who had the most support in the area that i was in. this was essendon. the ticket said st.kilda vs essendon so im assuming that essendon was the home team. they lots 87 to 123. attendence was 49,721 or something like that..it was up there

before i went to see if to see if i can get a tecket and i did. so instead of going back to read up more on the rules i decided to walk around and see what else it there. there was a old car show thats is only open on tuesday. by the time i got back to the arrena i stil had time to kill and i didnt want to walk back. so i ate something, they open the gates early so people can watch the warm ups and stuff like that. (before i went i did read the rules for about under 5 min or maybe 5 min. i did understand the basics like how many points and basically what you can and cant do. i still dont get as soon as they passed the ball to a area (looked basically like every 10 yards) they were given room to move around untouched. they dont give people time to react if the ball goes out of play. its the ref goes to the out of play line and then tosses the ball backwards. small stuff like that i eventually got and got into the game. apparently when you go to one of these things you have to have a meat pie. so least quarter i went and got one and a beer. i think they use everything from the animal that was used for the meat pie. because i got something rubbery and looked to see what it was. and it looked to me like artery. going to try and see henery rollins tonight in his spoken word. there is also this ice lounge ( http://www.chillon.com.au/ ) still going to put in a trip to Ayers Rock and a day trip down the great ocean road

when things hit you...they sure hit you

2008-04-17T01:12:00.000-07:00

i found out today that my grandmother isnt doing well and has weeks to live. im on the other side of the world and i have no idea on what i should do. i could cancel the rest of my trip and go home early and be with my grandmother in her final moments. they say she has about 1-2 weeks. the thought of me going home and finding out that she died on the way back home is on my mind. i dont know what i should do and whats best.im trying to get my mind off things and enjoy Melbourne at the moment...but its not that easy. when to a museum of video game history where they had lots of hands on stuff

im going to go to this Dracula cabaret restaurant tonight hopefully this comedy will be good and there is a ghost train ride thats included in the price.its ironic that im going to some place called draculas with death being close. or maybe its the eternal life thing and hoping that she will say alive till i get home.

http://draculas.com.au/

also going to try and get a ticket for henery rollins spoken word here in Melbourne if i can find the place

so the swim was worth it

2008-04-16T00:38:00.000-07:00

it was worth it but i didnt actually get a chance to touch any dolphins. their idea of swim was to get dragged behind a boat and you are given a mask and snorkle. it still was fun and would like to do it again here. maybe actually get dragged by one would be another whole experience. there is sooo much to do here and i know that i wont have enogough time or money to do it all. ill have to come back and start off here..lol. i dont want to leave here. im going to book swimming with sharks also. i cant wait and see how that goes, that is if i still have the guts to do it when im there..lol.

thinking back on adelaide it was ok but i could have done without going there and come over here first (Melbourne) but live and learn i guess.. one strange thing that i forgot to mention about adelaide was that when i was in a bar ( couple doors down from where i was staying) someone from the salvation army walked in and asked people in the bar for donations. and the strange part is that everyone gave him something, including myself. i thought it you ask someone in the bar when they are drinking for money for a good cause.. then i guess i can give it to you.

so i spent an extra 160 bucks...ohh well

2008-04-15T01:24:00.000-07:00

well just to swim with the dolphins there is ended up spending an extra 160 bucks to get my flight changed. i hope this works out for me. this was my way of thinging and i hope in the long run it saves me.

1) i know where the place is and how to get there.
2)i know where the location of the boat is.
3)i love where it is
4)if i had to go do this is melbourn it would have taken me time and effort to find where the place is, how to get there...ect...ect....ect and this is only an 1hour40 min extention of my time here but planning things out over there would take at least a day to do everything i already know here. and if i dont happen to see anything i end up getting my money back...so i hope this ends up saving me time over in melbourn and hopefully ill have time to book a day or 2 package to Ayers Rock. i hope i have thought this out because 160 bucks is exactly that. but then again its an extra 60 bucks if you look at it this way, i spent 100 bucks to swim with the dolphins and if i didnt go id be throwing that way.

i hope i know what i just did.

this just sucks ass

2008-04-14T21:44:00.000-07:00

well due to a mistake on my part (sort of) i missed out on the dolphin swim. the pamplet says it takes off at 8am. they wrote on my ticket that it now leaves at 730am. so i got there a couple min after 8 thinking it would be all good. when i tried to get a refund they just rebooked me and saying that seeing how she told me aobut the time change that i wont get a refund. there goes that 100 bucks. they said i can get booked for tomorrow but here is the problem. i would get back at 1130 and the plain leaves at 1210 for Melbourne. so i wont have enought time to get to the flight. i think im going to tell the receptionest here that if anyone wants to go just tell them that they are me and maybe they can get a free swim out of this. anyway im still going to see if i can get to the shooting range and opal mine here. thats all i have left to do there. maybe ill go back to the ocean. i did buy a allday pass. might as well get my moneys worth from that.

things seem to get better here.

2008-04-14T02:57:00.000-07:00

today i went to book my dolphin swim and had a great time walking around at the ocean. its hard to beleve that its soo nice there and sooo many old people over there. well i guess not, it would be nice to live out there when your retired and wake up to that view. but there is amazing houses out there. and there are people out there that are in their 40s im thinking.i know this is not sounding like a good post but im just trying to put as much things down before my time runs out and i have to get more time added onto my card. tomorrow(my last full day here) i think im going to spend most of it at teh beach, there is a underground opal mind under a store at the mall i think ill go check out and also there is a gun range i think ill go see what they have and maybe fire off a couple of rounds. depending on the cost. ohh ya had kangeroo today at at the ocean. its hard to describe what exactly it tastes like but all i know is that i like it and more than likey will have it again tomorrow after i get out from swiming with the dolphins. im not sure if ill blog again tomorrow after the dolphin swim or not...more than likely i will.

blah day

2008-04-13T06:11:00.000-07:00

well i found out today that there was a aussie football game here last night and i missed it due to that jackass at the cricket gate. i was looking for something open to see if there was a football game on but no one was there. so i asked the person at the cricket table if there is anything going on in the arena today. he said nothing was going on here till the 25th. so i got fucked out of seeing football here. today was just a blah day and i did fuck all. all i did was get a new cell phone i got the nokia n73 and if i get it unlocked 6 months later it will cost 50 bucks less. or if anyone knows how to unlock a cell phone let me know. i like the nokias now. i didnt like them for some time now but this phone makes me change my mind. anyway enought about a phone..lol.

i have to call tomorrow about a dolphin swim. apparently its only a 20 min train ride so ill call and hopefully i can get in on a swim here if not there still is 2 more cities i can try.something strange came over me today with how this place looks and everything. for some reason i just thought of big brother and how there is cameras everwhere and a bunch of people that dont know each other. i find that in this place people are a lot less social than the other one.people here are more likely to stick to their own friends. too bad i havent had the expreience that lisa has had and made more friends...but im sure that will happen over time. but at least i can say that i have been to OZ the place that i have always wanted to go.

2008-04-11T04:33:00.000-07:00

walked around a little today. found the local afl stadium and again when im here no one is playing or there is even no cricket going on. why cant i go somewhere where there is a local sporting event going on? ohh well i still have 2 cities to go to and maybe ill get lucky in that regard.

things i still havent gotten use to
1) taxi driver on the wrong side ( proper side here)
2) the way the spell bus on its buz ( at least from what i saw in Brisbane)
3) the fact that i havent seen a fosters here at all and i have walked past and been in a couple of bars. i have seen tonight a Kokanee but no fosters.
4) how people once they find out you are Canadian start to talk to you for no reason. perfect exanple is on the story bridge that once the person behind me found out they talked to me at random parts during the climb. and that i got a discount at a comic store ( had to go its called pulp fiction comics) got 4 bucks off for some reason he had been to thunder bay.

then there was that guy today i didnt tell him where i was from but i went to the arena where they play aussie foot ball (aami stadium there is another name but it excapes me at the moment.) and one person walked up to me and talked about a a statue and how americans helped to recreate it for some reason i have no idea why he just walked up to me and started to talk to me.

adelaide

2008-04-10T02:58:00.000-07:00

this place seems ok. im in this hostle that is an older building and actually has real keys not those key cards(10 buck deposit on the key and its already bent. i think when i put it in my pocket it bent, so i might be loosing that right from the start. there is only 8 people to this room and only 4 beds are filled at the moment. so thats good. it seems a little warm here but thats just first thoughts. i don tknow but it looks like only one bathroom on the bottom floor and one shower. if im right this could be something to look for future blogs. and i have already payed for my 6 days so im in for the long hall no matter what.

looking at this adelaide guide book (depending on how to get to these places. i can take a day tour to the kangaroo island(i think ill do this) and the temptation sailing-dolphin swim.http://dolphinboat.com.au/ ill look more into that in the morning.

killing time.

2008-04-09T19:10:00.000-07:00

its now 12:11. my flight dosnt leave till 15:35. so im killing an hour on the good old interweb before i leave for adelaide. looking back on the city i LOVE IT and would want to move here. did almost all of the city things there is to do from visiting the XXXX brewery, to the queen street shopping center. taking the citycat(taxi boat down, there is a river down the middle fo the city) down the river on both sides.went to the ZOO(look at earlier posting) walked down the river. looked at both city parks, took lots of pics of OLD buildings and everything is great.basically i walked from one end of the city to the other. looking back on things i could have gone down to the vally to drink(big part place with lots of bars.) but i didnt feel like it. i noticed that there is little travel shops that offer differnt packages to differnt places like aries rock(i still want to go there) and maybe i will if i can find a differnt package. some other palces i should look into the the gold cost and sunshine coast. get a day package or something and then go from there.

i still get a laugh of the tour guide and how afraid she is of possums and not the hight of the bridge. on the way up the bridge she told us of her fear of possums and on the stairs going back...there was 2 of them everyone elese wanted to say and pet them because how "cute" they are but not the guide. she yelled and then walked to get out of there. well i have nothing else to say and might as well look at some other pages while i still have the time.

story bridge

2008-04-09T04:34:00.000-07:00

that was some expericence. i thought it was going to be a lot worse than what it was. i guess walking over the bridge and seeing what it had to offer kind of gave me the creeps. you will see what im talking about when i put up pics on flickr. anyway you walk under the bridge to get to the main part. even then i was thinking to myself what am i getting into. then looking up to the bridge from where you start to climb. again the feeling of what the fuck did you just get your self into. but then the steep walk up wasnt as bad as i thought it would be. its one of those things as soon as you do it you wonder why you worry soo much. its kind of like the CN tower in toronto. the glass floor (if you have been there you know what im talking about) you look and then once you done it its not bad. infact the center of the climb you had to stay up there for 5 min and the guide leader told you about the city. just looking it was kind of calming. i still dont know how i did this without spitting on traffic. there was a coupld of places where you can get your pic taken and i did. becausae my sis wasnt here i got put up the devil horns and thats the pic that i got printed out. over all i would do this again but there still is sydney and that bigger bridge i still want to do. there are 3 bridges you can legally climb 2 of them here and 1 in new zealand. so 2 of 3 isnt going to be bad. the bridge i was on apparently is the biggest bridge there. so from that stand point i was on top of the city. next stop
Adelaide tomorrow

2008-04-08T02:34:00.000-07:00

im getting use to carrying more stuff in my pants now. books...little things on places i want to see and pens and highliters.there is a lot going on. today was a good day. talked down to the city park and looked around. NICE there...look some pics. walked over to the story bridge and decided to book a climb.http://www.storybridgeadventureclimb.com.au/..looks like fun. i wonder i wonder if im going to shit my pants in all this. ohh well....and i dont like hights..lol. this is one way to get over it. id better im not going to waste 99 bucks and not go throught with it.

thats about it. only 1 more full day and then on the 10th im out of here at 10am for the check out . i think ill just end up going over to the airport right from here and look at the next city and see what i should do there. im still not sure on if i should go to another hostle or just book at cheap hotel.or even if i do go hostle way do like i did this time and just ask the taxi driver if he knew any good ones.

time will tell what i do.

2008-04-06T02:02:00.000-07:00

spent 350 or there about today. that includes the trip there and back and all the gifts for people. i spent about 10 bucks for myself. it was a good time there except for the little boy that kept on yelling for his mom and dad when he got to to the other one. so if he was with dad he yelled for mom. what a pain in the ass. i took well over 600 pics in 6 hours. the show at the main stage was great. these free birds flew past us and went over the crowd. sooo close that a couple of them almost hit me. i cant beleve how big that place is and all the walking i had to to today.but well worth every (i want to say cent but there is no penny here) dollar? not sure. but you know what im talking about. to end if off the fed agro. that big 16 foot croc...all i can say is wow. what a way to end a day and just the way i wanted to end it. if only my sis was here to see it with me. i know she would have loved it. ohh well she will have to go here one day. apparently they just bought more land is going to expand. i still cant beleve i actually pet a kangaroo,Kwala,and a Wambat. more stories later. i have to pay for the internet 4 bucks for 60 min and this time around is just about to expire. ohh well more later on when i can get more time. thats also why there is no pics yet. it takes too much time and hard drive space for me to do at the moment. ill have to look for a liabary or somewhere else other than the hostle to do it. now its 7 gal and 3 guy in my room.

Radiohead Shocks Record Industry With Free Download of New Album

Tells fans that they can pay as much or as little as they want for the band's new album "In Rainbows."

Newly freed from the shackles of a recording industry contract, the famed UK band Radiohead has decided to buck the system and offer its new album "In Rainbows" directly to fans at whatever price they feel like paying. It's now shaping up for the revolution to be televised after all.

The album will be available for download directly from its website beginning October 10th, and fans can choose to pay as little as 45 pence, about $1 USD, the credit card handling fees.

It's their first release since 2003's "Hail to the Thief," the last album required under its recording contract with the EMI/Capitol records label.

On its surface it may not sound like too big of a deal, I mean offering an album directly to consumers for download isn't exactly groundbreaking, but when you stop to consider that Radiohead is a big name talent with tons of album sales, fans, and music awards under their belt it really gives moment for pause and makes you realize that this is indeed a revolutionary development in the music industry.

It's the first time that a band with such a fanbase and lucrative capacity for CD sales has decided to embrace the future of music distribution and sidestep the traditional music industry altogether. It's an event that is certain to cause panic in record label boardrooms everywhere and cause a further dent in already slumping CD sales.

Despite the fact that fans can opt to pay essentially nothing, its more than likely that they will choose to pay something of meaning and reward the band for this bold endeavor since all profits go directly to Radiohead and not into the pockets of out of touch record labels. Plus fans will most likely choose to download it directly from the band's site instead of on P2P and file-sharing networks because they will be able to get it faster and at a guaranteed quality bitrate encoding. It suddenly makes piracy look irrelevant.

Also, what's interesting to point out is that an artist only makes about $1 USD per each $16.98 USD retail album he sells right now anyways, and I'm certain many will opt to pay at least this much if not more. For all intents and purposes it's actually possible that they will make more money selling "In Rainbows" directly to consumers than they would have otherwise. It's hard to fathom that the record industry makes a big stink about how piracy leads to "starving artists" when it gives a measly dollar to them while it consumes the other sixteen.

The move may also cause a further shakeup of the music industry because other big artists may now demand better contract deals under threat of leaving and distributing music themselves as Radiohead.has done. Being that the music industry offers little incentives for signing other than upfront cash to struggling bands and marketing assistance, its days of necessity are almost over. Both mean nothing to the more established artists and are increasingly possible to overcome even for new and lesser known talent.

The bottom line here is that Radiohead may have finally shown the world once and for all that bypassing record labels is actually possible. It used to be that the artists needed them, for who else was able to manufacture, distribute, market, stock, and sell your CDs. But, now it's the other way around. The music industry is now content-centric, meaning that all you need now is quality music, a PC, and an internet connection. Record labels don't really have that much to offer music artists anymore, and it's this fact that makes their profit grabs all the more distasteful.

I urge you to show your support for TRUE ARTISTS and make record labels sit up and take notice by buying a copy of Radiohead's new album "In Rainbows" on October 10th. Join the revolution.

more bands should do this.

Trent Reznor, frontman for Nine Inch Nails, is on the warpath against his record label, Universal Music Group. In Sydney, Reznor kicked off the NIN concert with an appeal to the crowd to steal his music until the labels realize they're ripping people off. This follows his attack on the recording industry while playing the Beijing Pop Festival earlier this month. He asked Chinese fans who couldn't obtain legal copies of his album to download it off the Web. Reznor views labels as greedy entities -- charging progressively more for records without passing any additional revenue to artists. Once the band's contract with Universal is finished, Reznor plans to sell music directly to his fans for about $4 an album.

people at baseball games can be assholes. there is a handicap area for people to park and look at the baseball game. so i go and take some pics from that area. asshole #1 goes hey you. your not suposed to be in that area its for the handicap, i look at him and say i know. im just taking some pics. then he goes well then get out of that area now. there was no one in that area so i wasnt taking anyone spot. i simply tell him that im going to take some pics and then leave for my seat. he says something to his friend or gay lover whatever, i just tell them to enjoy the game.

then asshole #2 says hey you with the camera. are you going to be there for the rest of the game or what. i tell him no i dont have a chair im just going to take some pics. then i turn around with hardly any time to focus and i get some great pics. this one being the best one. ohh well the "sharper with your focus on the guy whose throwing the ball"...joo....at least i got the pic and im verry happy with this pic.

one of the scarest moments of my life

2006-06-20T10:53:00.000-07:00

I was walking me dogs like I do almost every day but today was a little different. She chases after some birds and then stops when I call her (akane). The farthest she has ever swum was just out a little bit to go see this log thing in the river by my house. Today she chased the ducks across the river, and back again, swam in the middle of the river. I think the ducks were scared and tried get her tired and make her give up, also they had little baby ducks with them. So that’s not the end of it

The ducks swim out into the lake. So I go into the water to try and get her leash and drag her in. well the water dropped off and next thing I know I’m over my head in water. And me not being the best swimmer that isn’t a fun experience. So here I am looking at a dog swimming out into the lake and me sitting and trying to figure out how to tell everyone that a dog is more than likely dead and drowned chasing ducks. It’s not often that I cry or even admit to doing so but that’s was I did. I dropped down and just let it go. By this time I couldn't yell for akane anymore because I was yelling the whole time. I took sugar (other dog) home and told my dad that akane is dead. He starts yelling at me. I tell him to fuck off I almost drowned myself trying to get her back. He jumps in the tuck to see if akane is still alive. I change my cloths get on my bike and go where she was.

My dad has an artificial leg so him trying to walk down this slop on one side of the river with a cane. I go to the other side with my bike trying to find her. I hear no ducks quacking so i’m thinking she is dead forsure. then i see this black thing on the other side i bike faster to get to it. Maybe its akane...its her....she is scared of me. She knows she did wrong i take her to the truck and spank her. She runs into the truck, (i have never hit her before. she walked up stairs with my dad and tried to get into my room i told her no...She looked at me funny and went to the other room. Later i finished cutting the grass and she was at the door wanting to go out. I let her out and sat down. I was petting sugar and then akane comes up to me and asking for forgiveness. I pet her and she wouldn’t leave me she was begging for forgiveness. Thinking back on what happened i had to give it to her forgiveness that is. She could have ran away when i took sugar back and i could have never found her. But she was waiting for me where she likes to go swimming. So things could have been worse. Everyone one i home safe and i should just be thankful of that and not be mad at akane.
And at least if she does this again i know i can take one dog home and she will still be hopefully fine. Thank god out in the lake there is some sand parts making the water walk able out there. I think that’s what saved akane.

What a day!

RESIGNATION

2006-06-16T22:49:00.000-07:00

I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult. I have
decided I would like to accept the responsibilities of an 8 year-old again.
I want to go to McDonald's and think that it's a four star restaurant.
I want to sail sticks across a fresh mud puddle and make a sidewalk with rocks.
I want to think M&Ms are better than money because you can eat them.
I want to lie under a big oak tree and run a lemonade stand with my friends on
a hot summer's day. I want to return to a time when life was
simple; When all you knew were colors, multiplication tables, and nursery
rhymes, but that didn't bother you,because you didn't know what you
didn't know and you didn't care.

All you knew was to be happybe cause you were blissfully unaware of
all the things that should make you worried or upset.
I want to think the world is fair.That everyone is honest and good.
I want to believe that anything is possible. I want to be oblivious
to the complexities of life and be overly excited by the little things
again.

I want to live simple again. I don't want my day to consist of
computer crashes, mountains of paperwork,depressing news, how to survive more days
in the month than there is money in the bank, doctor bills, gossip, illness,
and loss of loved ones. I want to believe in the power of
smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth,justice, peace, dreams, the imagination,
mankind, and making angels in the snow. So . . . here's my checkbook
and my car-keys, my credit card bills and my 401K statements. I am officially
resigning from adulthood.And if you want to discuss this
further, you'll have to catch me
first,

Fuck
3122 up, 285 down

From "Monty Python"

Perhaps one of the most interesting words in the english language today, is the word fuck. Out of all the english words that begin with the letter 'f' ...fuck is the only word refered to as 'the f word... It's the one magical word. Just by its sound can describe pain, pleasure, hate and love. Fuck, as most words in the english language is derived from german ...the word fuieken, which means to strike.
In english, fuck falls into many grammatical categories:

As a transitive verb for intance ...John fucked Shirley.
As an intransitive verb...Shirley fucks.

Its meaning is not always sexual, it can be used as...

An adjective such as ...John's doing all the fucking work.
As part of an adverb ...Shirley talks too fucking much.
As an adverb enhancing an adjective ...Shirley is fucking beautiful.
As a noun ...I don't give a fuck.
As part of a word ...absofuckinglutely -or- infuckingcredible.
And as almost every word in a sentence ...Fuck the fucking fuckers.

As you must realize, there aren't too many words with the versatility of fuck...such as these examples describing situations such as:

Fraud ...I got fucked at the used car lot.
Dismay ...ahhh fuck it.
Trouble ...I guess I'm really fucked now.
Agression ...Don't fuck with me buddy.
Difficulty ...I don't understand this fucking question.
Inquiry ...Who the fuck was that?
Dissatisfaction ...I don't like what the fuck is going on here.
Incompetance ...He's a fuck-off.
Dismissal ...Why don't you go outside and play hide and go fuck yourself...

I'm sure you can think of many more examples.
With all these multi-purpose applications, how can anyone be offended when you use the word. We say use this unique, flexible word more often in your daily speech.
It will identify the quality of your character immediately.
Say it loudly and proudly...
...FUCK YOU!

Johnny always wanted to have sex with this hot blonde girl in his office but she belonged to someone else. One day Johnny got so frustrated that he went up to her and said: "I will give you a $100 if you let me have you" but the girl said "NO".

Johnny said I'll be fast, I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend down, and I'll be finished by the time you pick it up.

She thought for a moment and said that she would have to consult with her boyfriend. So she called her boyfriend and told him the story. Her boyfriend says ask him for $200, pick up the money very fast, he won't even be able to get his pants down. So she agrees and accepts the proposal.

Half an hour goes by and the boyfriend is waiting for his girlfriend to call. Finally, after 45 minutes the boyfriend calls and asks what
happened. She said "The Son of Bitch used coins and I had to keep my word

my new gf.....i could only be so lucky....lol

holden/alyssa moment

2006-05-16T22:59:00.000-07:00

there are people that i like out there, beleve it or not, but whenever i tell someone i like them they never talk to me after, so im looking for my holden/alyssa moment. i love the movie chasing amy, and this scene comes from it. i wish sometimes i could just tell people that i like them and not have to worry about them not likeing me. when i move out (next year crossing fingers) i should just tell people that i like them have them hate me for the rest of their lifes and make new friends or either move out to a differn town where people dont know me and i can start over again. but here is the line from chasing amy that i wish i can just do, get it over with and see if anyone out there will give me a chance not to only be a friend but something more.

Alyssa: Why are we stopping?
Holden: Because I can't take this.
Alyssa: Can't take what?
Holden: I love you.
Alyssa: You love me?
Holden: I love you. And not, not in a friendly way, although I think we're great friends. And not in a misplaced affection, puppy-dog way, although I'm sure that's what you'll call it. I love you. Very, very simple, very truly. You are the epitome of everything I have ever looked for in another human being. And I know that you think of me as just a friend, and crossing that line is the furthest thing from an option you would ever consider. But I had to say it. I just, I can't take this anymore. I can't stand next to you without wanting to hold you. I can't, I can't look into your eyes without feeling that, that longing you only read about in trashy romance novels. I can't talk to you without wanting to express my love for everything you are. And I know this will probably queer our friendship - no pun intended - but I had to say it, because I've never felt this way before, and I don't care. I like who I am because of it. And if bringing this to light means we can't hang out anymore, then that hurts me. But God, I just, I couldn't allow another day to go by without just getting it out there, regardless of the outcome, which by the look on your face is to be the inevitable shoot-down. And, you know, I'll accept that. But I know... I know that some part of you is hesitating for a moment, and if there is a moment of hesitation, then that means you feel something too. All I ask, please, is that you just, you just not dismiss that - and try to dwell in it for just ten seconds. Alyssa, there isn't another soul on this fucking planet who has ever made me half the person I am when I'm with you, and I would risk this friendship for the chance to take it to the next plateau. Because it is there between you and me. You can't deny that. Even if, you know, even if we never talk again after tonight, please know that I'm forever changed because of who you are and what you've meant to me, which - while I do appreciate it - I'd never need a painting of birds bought at a diner to remind me of.

MEDICAL BREAK THROUGH

MEDICAL BREAK THROUGH

A British company is developing computer chips that store music in
women's breast implants. This is being considered a major break
through and will solve a perennial problem. Women are always
complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

brian, you are a fucking morn

2006-05-13T20:22:00.000-07:00

brian is the store manager.i asked him for one simple thing on the telzon guns. its nothing big, it just shows how much of an item we have onhand and is on transit. apparently i dont need this. so when there is nothing on the shelf and someone askes me if we have anything in the back i have to
1) get someone else to cover me whyle i go to the back
2)look for it
3)come back tell them if we have it

but if he would have given it to me all id have to do is scan the upc and thats it i can stip going back there if there is none and tell them how much we are going to get in, if someone wants a display we can only sell it if we are not getting any in, but i cant tell this because i dont need to know such things.

so with this im going to start playing their games, im not going to do carryouts and if i do i wont do a "team lift"without anyones help, im not going to go outside to push carts, you need safty shoes and my job dostn require it. i had to tell a lot of people today that i cant tell you if we are getting any in because managment dosnt see fit that i have that information. i could have sold some displays but again i cant see if we are getting any more in so fuck it im not going to get in shit and sell something im not suposed to because i dont need that information

fuck this.
thank god i still have 1/2 bottle of wine...its going to be gone tonight.

this would be my luck in real life

the letter meme m

If you want to play, let me know, and I will give you a letter. Write five words beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation of what the word means to you and why, and then pass out letters to those who want to play along.
joo has given me M

1) because i like driking red wine recently, tonight its the change from the yellowtail to the bear crossing cabernet merlot.also this is part of the koala foundation so my drinking im saving koalas
Merlot (pronounced Mare-LOW)

Merlot is the most widely planted red grape in France’s Bordeaux region, although it is eclipsed in stature by cabernet sauvignon, the grape with which it is routinely blended. In recent years, Merlot has enjoyed a explosion in popularity, especially in the United States, South America, Italy and Australia. In California, plantings have risen from 4,000 acres in 1988 to over 50,000 today. Merlot

A thin-skinned variety, merlot ripens earlier in the season then cabernet sauvignon and is less hardy, prone to a variety of ailments from shatter (the loss of potential fruit during flowering of the vine) to rot and mildew. It is more adaptable to cool climates than cabernet sauvignon, but similarly prefers a relatively warm growing environment.

Merlot’s popularity is due to the fact that it is softer, fruitier, and earlier-maturing than cabernet sauvignon, yet displays many of the same aromas and flavors – black cherry, currant, cedar, and green olive – along with mint, tobacco and tea-leaf tones. Although enjoyable as a varietal wine, it is probably most successful when blended with cabernet sauvignon, which contributes the structure, depth of flavor, and ageability merlot lacks.

Like cabernet, merlot is a good accompaniment to simply prepared beef and lamb dishes.

2)masturbation thanks for the word joo...lol. what can i say about masturbation..other than everyone does it, myself included, thank god for playboy tv thats all i can say at the moment. people so it for pleasure and is a good sleeping aid when you are not tired at night,what else.i dont see myself actuallt getting laid anytime in the near future so it looks like a lot of masturbation in my future.maybe i should get venus unlocked

3)Maynard James Keenan all i can say is wow, his music is great, for some reason when im down and depressed i cant stop playing his music. he has 2 bands tool and a perfect circle. his dark lyrics (ihave posted some in the past) i just understand the raw emoion that comes from the songs, his vocal range is just fantastic. seeing a perfect circle live was great and i still wonder how we got home from winnipeg alive (but thats another story).

4)mallrats. one of my fav kevin smith movies and was the first one ever saw of his. now i have every movie and love them all. yes even jersey girl. but for some reason i still dont like Ben fucking Affleck...he still cant act but for some reason i like him in kevin smith movies.fav quotes of mallrats is

Brodie: You're going to listen to something I said? Haven't I made it abundantly clear during the tenure of our friendship that I don't know shit?

Brodie: My grandmother always said, "Why buy the cow...when you get the sex for free."

5)metallica. one of the best concerts i went to go see what metallica's Summer Sanitarium 2003, going to wait inline for a good 5 hours before the concert started to be in the pit was crazy but well worth it. the other bands that i saw that nigth was Metallica, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, The Deftones and Mudvayne.wow that pit was great but getting punched in the back of the head, kicked again in the head by crowd surfers, for a good 6-7 hours, well that was fun too, getting a knee in the face by chino the lead singer of deftones still is a story i tell to this day.

loosing camp

2006-05-09T20:39:00.000-07:00

with the high price of gas and the cost of having a camp going up it seems we might have to sell out camp. this sucks ass, we didnt go at all last year and still had to pay for a full year. my dad the year before had wanted to pay for a years worth of camp at one time (end up saving money) and apparently he had to say if he wanted it changed from year to year. so we have a buyer willing to take it off our hands but first they have to meet with the owner of where we go. if they like them we can sell it, if not then we still have a camp. if it goes its too bad because i love camp, the many drunken bdays partys there, midnight swimming, playing lawnchair shotput, this involved us getting drunk and throwing lawn chairs into the lake, it being about 3am and we were drunk we decided not to go into the water and get it the next day, only to see some little kids swimming and fishing out the chairs.wow that was fun trying to explain that those were our chairs and then to the parents saying how those chairs getting ino the lake in the first place.more such stores to follow later. but the sad thing is that i kind of wanted to have my first experiece out there at camp,(wont get into the graphic details and with who) but it looks like that wont happen at all out there.

my luck with plenty of fish isnt going any better so im going to get sarah to take some pics of me and post them up on plenty of fish. still no responces from smiles i sent out and its getting pretty sad, so here is the plan, i need a good line to start talking to these people, im going to send a smile or what ever they have on pof out to everyone there and see if at least i get one responce. if i dont get a responce i dont know what to do.

this also brings up a question of is there a such a thing as too much porn? there is a thing called venus unlocked where for 69.99 i get 9 channels of porn on the weekends. i wonder if this is too much porn for one person to handle, any thoughts on this?
lol

more words from Maynard James Keenan/tool

2006-05-01T09:36:00.000-07:00

(Sober]
There's a shadow just behind me,
shrouding every step I take,
making every promise empty,
pointing every finger at me.
Waiting like a stalking butler,
who upon the finger rests.
Murder now the path called must we,
just because the son has come.
(Jesus, won't you fucking whistle,
something but the past and done? 2x)
Why can't we not be sober?
Just want to start this over.
Why can't we drink forever?
I just want to start things over.

I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave,
I will work to elevate you,
just enough to bring you down.
(Mother Mary won't you whisper,
something but what's past and done. 2x)
Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
Why can't we sleep forever?
I just want to start this over.

I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave
(Trust me. 5x)
Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start things over.
Why can't we sleep forever?
I just want to start this over.

(I want, what I want. 4x)
