weekend

• too loud band practice


• had super beta carotene dinner with butternut squash and carrots


• read some


• went to gym


• went to the D.A.M. house for grilled cheese party


• ate burritos at taqueria guadalajara


• went to galleria mall


• watched t.v.

if it ain't broke, why attempt to fix it?


i hate when cartoons are remade as live action movies and the marketing that goes with them. when "the grinch" movie (which i still refuse to see) came out, a line of action figures that looked like jim carey dressed as the grinch were sold to the youth. plus, the friggin' cartoon version already rules. same thing for the flintstones movies. i don't get it. well who would have thunk that the cat in the hat stunk (stank, stinks)? i will not see it in a house, i will not see it with a mouse.

what's next? a charlie brown christmas featuring bernie mack as "chuck"? well actually that would rule (but never happen), but i could see them trying to use some popular actor of the moment (will ferrell) as charlie brown with all the characters made up with big fat rubber heads, scaring the bejesus out of kids all over the world.


yes. i know the grinch and cat in the hat were books first.

JAJAJAJJAJAJAJAJJAJAJJAJAJJAJAJAAAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA!!!!!


this is the best news article i've read all week!

ok. i'll post something


since new good music is hard to come by these days, i've been updating my music collection with the classics (and i happen to like most stuff that came out in the late 60's for all genres of music).

i finally found a rolling stones album i can sit all the way through. i love a lot of songs by these dudes, but sometimes i can't stand some of the bluesy/country tinged stuff they seem to like to mix in with the good songs. this is their 'psychedelic" album which gets a little ridiculous at times (with trippy soundclips and whatnot), but all the songs are pure gems. my friend has the original vinyl version of this record with the 3-D cover (one of those things i "need" to aquire one of these days). i heard that they would have made more albums like this if brian jones didn't drown in his own vomit, or whatever happened to him, but who knows.

so far my top five stones albums:

1. their satanic majesty's request
2. aftermath
3. flowers
4. beggars banquet
5. let it bleed

monday five bragging rights

1. jandek on corwood - scott miller gets to live. i wish i recorded more songs back when i wanted to play guitar, but didn't know how to. i didn't know people would actually get into that shit.



2. bayside clearance sale - tons of flying nun cds for $1. a bunch of 60's reissued 180 gram vinyl records on sundazed for $1. the creation "bif bang pow" comp on vinyl for $1. i felt like i was in a freaking dream that was too good to be true. holly shizzle my nizzle!



3. the frenchmen playing live on KALX followed by the live broadcast of the bananas at 924 gilman. we went to the show after we were done and as we walked into the building the KALX dj at gilman was talking to the DJ in the studio. niki was still in the car listening to the radio and heard "it looks like the frenchmen have arrived..." i wonder if they announced when we left the building.



4. the bananas calling the sound man and gilman "sound-o"



5. realizing i haven't been to 924 gilman in ages, but seeing that dude with the spiked hair and studded jacket still hangs out there and enjoys "slam-dancing", and he's still like 12 years old or something.

-jeff ott

one new song every 6 months. that's what i call productivity!

weird..cool

office tricks


how to take an unnoticed extended lunch break.

instead of coming back at 2 or 3pm, leave at 10:30-11am.

batman and robin logic


i always enjoyed how robin would piece together clues on the old batman and robin tv series from the 60's and i use this type of logic everyday to come up with pneumonics. my latest: how to remember my combination-lock combination

the luckiest number

there is a convenient store that uses this number in it's name. it is open # hours a day. divide this number in half

the lucky number is the sum of X and Y, take the number X and repeat it to make the double digit number XX

there. now you can steal my ipod out of my locker next time you see me at the gym.

KAPOW!!!

hey kid. i'm a computer!



these little GI_JOE PSAs (with overdub) crack me up.

heya!



yesterday i got out of work by volunteering to paint a school for "special people". it was pretty fun. someone brought in a boom box and trashy tunes to listen to (abba, van halen [both roth and hagar era], REM). i got to use the "hey who sings this song?"..."REM"..."yeah could you keep it that way..har har har" joke when tim started singing along to "shiny happy people". there was a pub right next door, so being the beer drinkers people at HP are, we all headed over there afterwards and downed a couple pints before hittin' the road home (or back to the office to check email).

i've fallen into the "come home from work, watch tv while eating dinner, fall asleep" rut. i need to change this!

clone wars sucked


i thought it was going to be a real cartoon, but it turns out that it's a 3 minute mini series (in 20 installments). it reminded me of conan o'brian's "60". about as worthless anyhow. the whole thing came across as the network's conspiracy to suck us star wars geeks into watching cartoon network (which i do enjoy at times. no need for trickery). following the 3 minute waist of my time was "pokemon the movie". i think cartoon network needs to do a bit more research in the demographic department.

saturday i went to ben's for some LAN gaming. one would say "leon, you spend all your weekdays in front of your computer. why would you waist your weekend doing the same?", well if i were reading email and surfin' the web, i would agree. we played some old school counterstike and opposing forces, drank beer, ate burritos. good times!

sunday i participated in a scavenger hunt for heather's birthday. it was fun running around downtown in the pouring rain. after it was all over, the scavenger hunt teams met up at dan and heather's house for food and drink. i came up with a new mixed drink: consume 5-6 beers, get a cup and fill it with a shot of vodka, walk around to the back patio looking for some mixers in the cooler, after coming up empty-handed, go back inside, but instead of opening the sliding glass door, just slam into it and get vodka all over your face and in your eyes. i call this drink the windex

me: "i got some vodka here"
mike: "oooh...nice! what did you mix it with?"
me: "my face"

people keep asking me how i liked the matrix revolutions, and this is what i keep saying:

matrix 1 - cool "ground braking" movie. makes you get all philosophical

matrix 2 - refresher course for those who haven't watched the matrix 1 in 5 years (a little repetitive of matrix 1)

matrix 3 - blow shit up

...and i liked it. apparently not everybody does.

if you are a big fan of the matrix, i suggest watching Tron and reading the sprawl series by william gibson (if you haven't already)

and i'm going to watch clone wars today, so i'll be cutting out of band practice early so i don't miss it! it's all about setting priorities.

for chris's birthday last night we went to the burbs and ate at fudruckers and krispy kreme. when i got home i wanted to puke!

all you suckaz can get tha bozak!


last night i helped DJ danimal sub on kdvs for some hip-hop dj. you can listen to it here:

mp3: stream, download
realAudio: stream, download

we played a bunch of old school hits and some new good stuff

np: "get the bozak" - EPMD

rad!

famous last words (pt. 1)



friend X: "dude check out that hottie!"
me: "word!"
friend X: "oh look. she's a smoker. lame"
me: "ok"


friend X now lives with his chainsmoking girlfriend, (who, in my personal opinion is a very nice person, but is far from "hottie".)

i love cold and cloudy weather!



i hope this keeps up... i should move to seattle (or SF).
