Still [] after all these years.



So I guess I missed another "show of the year" here in Sactown this past Saturday. This time I actually made an attempt to be a part of musical history by leaving the house and going to the venue. Maybe the show only lasted 10 minutes, because I arrived about 15 minutes later than the advertised show time and no one was there, not even the bands playing, so I got back in my car and headed back home.

Yeah yeah... This is Sacramento, so shows are expected to start late, but C'mon! I should know by now...and deep down inside I did know, but at the same time I didn't feel like standing around like a chump waiting. Oh well.

Stop...Move away from the cookie jar!!!




Did anyone catch "The Office" American style last night? I missed it, but from what I've heard, it was pretty bad. Damn shame, but serves anyone right for being that lazy when trying to come up with a new show for the American public. Also I find it insulting to think they have to "Amerikanize" a show like that in order to bring it down to our intellectual level. Granted, sometimes when I watch The Office, I have to turn on subtitles when my brain's not in a notherner state of mind, but I still get it.

honestly...



I have a hard time being frank with people (especially friends), and when I do, I wind up coming off as some kinda a-hole...but whatever. I'm just stating the truth, as I see it.

Anyhow, my current situation is this (without being too specific): I have a friend involved in a project of his (or her) own mastermind, yet I feel he (or she) does not have what it takes to take on this particular task because it's probably out of her (or his) realm of expertise, not saying people shouldn't try new things, but maybe this person should take some outside advice and/or put more effort into this particular project, because as it is now, I really think my friend is making her.himself look silly and is going to harm his.her reputation in this field.

How do I tell my friend this without sounding insensitive?
