jeepster is right. end discussion.

Also, i'm really really excited that i'm less than a month away from seeing jonathan richman. If he plays I'm a Little Dinosaur and Abominable Snowman in the Supermarket i think i will be complete. Bonus points if he dances around like a dinosaur

feels was 3 years ago? i can't believe that even though i know it true. it still seems new.

sung tongs still feels recent too.

"All the songs on feels are tuned to our friends piano which was out of tune to begin with. Dave and I made loops from recordings of him playing her piano and we used those loops in the early songwriting process for feels. So since those loops are premade and can't be tuned, the guitars have to be tuned to the loops. it's not out of tune in any tradional whole step/half step kind of way...we're talking microtonally out of tune after years of not being professionally tuned and subtle natural detuning. Kind of like if you played guitar in standard tuning for years but never once re-tuned it to make sure it was right. It would have it's own unique out-of-tune tuning based on what strings you played most often, how hard you played it, the temperature in the room, the humidity, etc... When we went into the studio it ruled over everything we did. Even doctess's live piano playing required us bringing in a professional piano tuner, playing him a minidisc recording of our friend's out of tune piano, and having him try to de-tune the studio's piano in exactly the same way our friend's was. Without those recordings or the loops dave and i made, you wouldn't be able to get it exact unless you tune to the album while it's playing, and even then, you'd have to know which loop in the album we use to tune, which one chord it is, and because of the way we mixed the loop in, it is almost impossible to separate from dave's guitar. I'll never forget when the tuner finished (we had to wait to start recording until he finished) and he stood up from the bench and went 'there you go, the piano's perfectly out of tune.'"

it bugs me that the teenage mutant ninja turtles never got older than teenagers. time passes in the series!

i think its cause of the mutation. i mean, they were teenagers at the time...and so after, they never aged?

i dont know.

this should be in superconfessional, but i used to have a crush on michelangelo.

I signed up for the Pink Ribbon 10K walk.

I'm single, none of the women in my family has had breast cancer.

I wonder if the women participating will be wondering what a single, young(ish) male is doing spreading awareness for breast cancer.

I tried to get female friends to join but they busy/working/have prior plans. Two are thinking of joining but so far no response.

I can't organize a group for a good cause... I'm pathetic
