So you're saying you wouldn't have followed your own advice? Don't cop out Marco!

hangover days by jason collet and heart by stars have been in my rotation often the last few months, some liz phair too.

or stores that have 20 (literally) checkouts and there are 3 open with 10 people waiting in each, and about 40 employees running around the store doing jack all. and it takes you 5 times as long to pay for what you're buying than it did to park, walk in, walk through the huge place find what you want and make it to a check out. i hate the walmart experience.

i know the your, you're deal. sometimes, i use things like yer to reflect inflection, and how i would actually be saying it in the moment. i wouldn't have said it "you're so funny" i would have said "yer soooooooo funny" sometimes, these things are intentional. to really throw a curve ball, sometimes, on the internet i want to sound like i have a spanish accent, and i actually write joo intead of you.

this is a great weekend of music brodie. good work!! i'm going to try to make it out on friday night. oh, and thanks for bringing martyr into town. i really enjoyed the pic of them in the view. that one dude has an awesome skullet!

I KNEW you were gunna say that. yer soooooo funny. prepare mr boo, i'm bringin the dog.

ha...i remember in school we were taught these word "upgrades"...better versions of simpler words to use to sound smarter...and use > utilize was one of them. I HATE when people make plans and don't cancel at all, or cancel at the last possible minute, or after the last possible minute to make other plans. i also HATE pencilled in plans. you walk around all week thinking your friday night is taken when really it's been pencilled in and then the pencil gets erased. so then you take it upon yourself to make pen plans over your pencil plans considering the track record and then your pencil plans turn into pen plans and you're fing stuck, looking like a douche with a double booking.

so at work today my boss who i never really talk to comes up and offers me some of those honey mustard pretzle bits...weird timing i thought i tried a couple and while they had lots of flavour which i love, they were kinda dry and at 1200 calories a bag...wow!

i love suddenly i see and a couple others on that album. glad i'm not the only one.

hey mary...i hope you still have that copy of the book. it might be worth something someday! it definitely sounds like a printing error. when luke said that it doesn't end, the story literally doesn't end. i knew i had like 5 pages left to read and the story wasn't anywhere near finished. it left me with a lot of questions and a pretty pissed off attitude. 6 weeks of reading and 1000+ pages later and i don't get a fing ending?!?!? i just grabbed my copy, which is the first paperback edition with an isbn number of 0-316-92117-3. if your isbn # is 0316920045 then you have the hardcover and none of the following will be relevant to figuring out your issue. my copy has the body of the story ending on page 981 with footnotes from 983-1079. i know there is one rather lengthy footnote that is pretty much verbatim a section of the novel, but i don't have any parts of the novel that are just pages repeated sequentially. are the page numbers at the bottom repeated...as in 25, 26...51, 52, 25, 26? or do the page numbers go up with the text being the same? i don't think my copy is missing an ending...i think it's a bit of a joke on the reader to just leave it the way it was left.

darius eats solid gold and a couple other holistic blends. if you can afford it, i'd go with that. one of the good things about having a dog that eats 2/3 of a cup of food a day i guess. thanks for the heads up lara!

does les think he's so cool now that he's gone down to one name like cher or madonna?

i like ketchup crispy mini's....or movie popcorn with ketchup flavouring...but i hate the stain i get on my hands. these days i don't eat any of that tho....but if i were to succomb to a chip craving i'd probably go all out and get some nachos.

you'd fit right in with your shakra yogi meditation tapes and hourly dfw updates

hey mark, thanks for the update. yeah the buick beast died on route last year. my gas line decided to break at that nice little petro can service station off the 401 in cambridge. this year tho, i have a new ride that is VERY reliable so i shall be there for saturday night, as originally planned. god i love being right!

thanks for my shout out bitch. yeah so i was fasionably late. so what? i still made it out the squarey circle.

look, i don't think every night of music you go to see has to be mind blowing and suberbly played. yeah, it's gimmicky, in a way.....but it's also fun to see what punky boys and the quirky girls that love them grow up to be. and in this case, it's a fun, loving, musically creative family unit. it's also nice to see that babies don't have to stop the music that the parents like to make.

is the line up that's listed in the first post of this thread the official line up? someone told me that dave and wtts are playing friday, but i think, after looking at it, they might have read it wrong, and i just want to confirm that I'M RIGHT!

ummmm, they're fun to see live. you've really got to hear the music and see the slides to really "get it". they have a video which is funny, but it's not really the whole experience. it's got an awww cute factor to it...it's not the kind of thing you dance around to or see night after night. i doubt there will be slides with this show as that's more of a family affair. but that's just an educated guess.

you think having a job vs not having a job will get you MORE time to read the board? ummmmmm...don't mention that in your interview.

happy birthday buddy

it's too bad i'll be out of town for this. was looking forward to finally seeing these guys.

oh man...this place doesn't get enough attention and THIS place doesn't...and THIS place....who cares. either MAKE ME PAY ATTENTION, or stop complaining. nice article shain. i don't envy you having to write that one. and i say it got AT LEAST 59 minutes AND 2 proof reads.

a friend of mine will be out in halifax for that time and is wondering what if anything is goin on for the musically inclined. any suggestions?
