10:17 am - I Got In Early
|
Sanuks are the next big thing in footwear.
They're a (relatively) small shoe company from the West Coast. They're creating shoes that are being spotted on celebrities such as Brad Pitt, Shia LeBouf, Zach Effron, and Johnny Rotten.
And they just won the prestigious Footwear Plus Item Of The Year by Footwear Plus Magazine.
But don't just take celebrity and magazine endorsements. Regular people rave about the shoes too, as seen at Zappos, Amazon, and Buzzillions.
I bought a paid on my own without knowing any of the info I'm sharing here. I just saw them in the store and thought they were cool.
I've worn them at work twice, and I really like them. Even walking along uneven Philly sidewalks, it feels great, and I'm not worried about anything puncturing through. It makes city sidewalks feel like my living room floor. :)

It seemed like everyone was there, and for good reason.
Last night R5 Productions held a free screening of the absolutely breathtaking Sigur Ros movie, "Heima".
Sigur Ros held a series of free, unannounced concerts in various small towns and villages around their home country of Iceland. People of all ages showed up. Teenagers, mothers and fathers, children and grand parents.
This movie was simply beautiful. It reveals the art in nature. The beauty in the small things you might not notice everyday, the beauty in large structures once forgotten, and how special we all are - regardless of age, shape, size, dress...
The movie is a love letter to the area of earth known as Iceland, and the people who live there. This movie MUST be seen by those in love with photography, documentaries, and live concerts. For those who like Sigur Ros, this of course is a MUST. For those who are curious about Sigur Ros and their music, this is certainly one of the best ways to learn.

10:47 am - Back From Wales
|
|
| Saturday, October 27th, 2007
| |
12:40 am - Trip To Whales
|
Tonight at 7:40pm my flight leaves the ground, and I'll be swept away, halfway across the earth, to Wales.
I won't be able to make or receive calls to the United States, so you'll have to hold off on talking to me for a week - this includes text messaging, and leaving voice mails, all are no-go's. (I know, that hurts). But I welcome you to leave comments right here in this LJ entry and I'll check it whenever I can. (I will have internet access, but I won't be on AIM or anything).
So take care everyone, and I'll be back November 4th with a video of my journey in hand.
Cheers!
PS: While you wait for my return, why don't you run out and get a copy of Leopard to play around with? It's FUN!

2:28 am - Live At Solstice 6-28-07
|
For those of you who couldn't stay for my Drum And Bass set at the first ever Solstice, I present to you... the audio of the first set, recorded live by a stationary Mini DV camera.
Audio was extracted into mp3 format. The camera was located in the middle of the room, and the microphone picked up a bit of chatter from the crowd in that area, but the music still booms loud enough that it pretty much drowns them out.
If I feel like putting up the second (much more chill) set, I'll let you know.
Enjoy. :)

WEBSPACE:
- I'm so in need of money, I'm even gonna try this little thing out. I'm willing to rent out webspace I've already spent money on to people. Now pricing and rules may change on this, but if we've already struck a deal, you're may remain the same while it will change for new people.
I am willing to charge $1 For every 1MB that you want me to host. You can have it on my site for as long as my plan lasts. You'll have your own little section on my site that you may link to. You may swap the file for something new, but if the new file is larger, you pay the difference. I'm doing this for people who need webspace but cant drop $110 at once for a year plan. I THINK my deal sounds fair.
I can supply pictures of products if needed. We can negotiate price too. If you are able to come to take a look, you can do that as well.
Reason for selling: I just would like to upgrade to newer stuff for my move to my newer apartment.

3:22 pm - Smell Of Ass
|
NO MORE POLITICS HERE!
Since the majority of you don't care about your future, families future, and your children's future (not to mention the present as well), I'm not going to post about politics here anymore. I'll post more important things like the drama between by g/f and I, or about the nights I have during the week, or complain about some person I saw on the street.
Oh.. and I HAVE GOT to include dumb ass polls and surveys for people to read, and lyrics to a song I'm into too! Since I know people are mucho interested in that shit.
For anyone that cares about what's in store for them when they get their heads out of their asses, or for those of you that care at all about my interests in politics, you can head on over to my new blog that I made on my own website.
THE NEW 'BUSH BLOGS' WEBSITE!
See Ya.

It would have been interesting to implant these brain chips into Terri Schiavo. We could ask her, "If you understand me, turn on the television".

5:20 pm - From Another Blog
|
Saw these two comments on the Blogs For Bush website (a pro-Bush blog), which were reacting to the Terri Schiavo news:
( Read The CommentsCollapse )
Also, I saw this "prayer" on the SaveTerri.com website:
"With Christ.
For those in Christ, death has no sting.
Prayers for Terri's family. May they be comforted in knowing that God has provided Terri with a special mansion in heaven.
I am sure that Jesus has said to Terri, "Well done good an faithful servant".
I am so sorry.
Thank you for caring for Terri and her family.
God bless you all."
I emailed the webmaster with this response:
"Why are you sorry she has passed if you think "God has provided Terri with a special mansion in heaven."? That sounds pretty nice to me. Sounds better than being bed ridden for 15 years with no ability to speak, or think, or eat on your own, or move....
Maybe you are sorry for getting in the way of your Gods will? Terri was dying. Maybe that was your God's plan. Keeping her on the feeding tube was keeping God from taking her away.
Did you ever think of it that way?"

4:37 pm - Election Fraud Revisited
|
Big news in the way of ELECTION FRAUD. Because mainstream media will not cover it, let's cover it ourselves:
Analysis - Vote Counts May Have Been Altered
Scientific Analysis Suggests Presidential Vote Counts May Have Been Altered. Group of University Professors Urges Investigation of 2004 Election.
Officially, President Bush won November's election by 2.5%, yet exit polls showed Kerry winning by 3% . According to a report to be released today by a group of university statisticians, the odds of a discrepancy this large between the national exit poll and election results happening by accident are close to 1 in a million.
In other words, by random chance alone, it could not have happened. But it did.
(This story contains a link to a PDF file of all the election results. Or you can check out a summery PDF file of the election results.)
