Limerick 23

It is very often preferred

When such an event has occurred

That those who did it

Step forth and submit

To the violent will of the herd

Doppelgängers

Ya know how sometimes when you look at someone they remind you of someone else even though when you look at them again they don't look anything like them? That just happened to me. The culprits? Rainn Wilson and Dr. Mark Minster.

FL, NYC, Guitfiddle, Car

Here goes... I can't believe that it's almost December already. Time has been flying by since, oh, about May. I think I've spent about 25% of my weekends at home since then. I attended 7 weddings this summer (was in 1) I've already got 3 lined up for next year! I just got back from Florida, that was ok, I tried to stay as far from the sun while sitting on the beach as possible. Thank goodness that there were palm trees there to afford some shade.

I went to NYC the weekend before that. I saw Hair. It was a good show, it was confusing though. I didn't understand a lot of what they were singing about, but considering all the characters in the show were high or on LSD that's understandable. The 4th wall was broken in minute 2 of the show, and all throughout the cast was coming into the audience getting us to clap and yell and stuff like that. I enjoy when shows do that. They handed out flowers and fliers to a "be-in" that was happening during the show. We also got evacuated off of Ellis Island. Evidently there was a haz-mat scare and they brought the police boats, fire boats, and assault riffles. Then we had to stand in the rain huddled under an umbrella for an hour waiting for them to search the whole museum.

I just broke my guitar some more. The nut came off as I was changing strings. It fits back on, but it might be time to get a new guitar.

Speaking of getting new stuff, I'm in the market for a new car, and I'm pretty serious about it this time. I'm looking at a few different models, but the ones that I like the best so far are Fusion, Altima, Accord, and Mazda3.

It's my 200th post! WOOOOOO! If I had realized this earlier I would have updated a lot earlier.

I just had a thought, and it goes like this: "Americans don't have enough time because, in addition to all the things they were doing before the tubes were invented, now they have to update blogs, facebook, twitter, myspace, picassa, read other peoples blogs, facebooks, twitters, myspaces, look at pictures of their friends party/wedding online, play video games on bored.com, listen to podcasts, sync smartphones, watch Glen Beck on Hulu, and read every single article that comes out of the Huffington Post/TFLN/FML/MLIA."

Wow, what a thought. I just started to twitter, my twitter name is jenkinsonj. Go follow me unless you're a robot that shouts ads. Then you should go lie in a ditch and go into hibernation mode.

iTunes now has Genius Mixes. These things are great, Genius figures out what kind of music I listen to the most and then makes playlists without me having to do anything at all. I don't even have to choose a band to base the playlist off of like before.

Sucky Music Math

Theory of a Deadman = Nickleback

Nickleback = suck

Therefore

Theory of a Deadman = suck

On a related note, whenever I hear the band's name, Theory of a Deadman, and I can't help but turn it into an acronym. TOAD MAN! This also happens with Rage Against the Machine which turns into RAT Machine, but Rage is awesome and not sucky like TOAD MAN.

Finally, scientific validation to what I've been telling everyone this whole time. I think I am being discriminated against by having to get up early to do things when it's obvious that I am at a disadvantage.

It's illegal to discriminate based on someone's handicap, it should be illegal to discriminate based on someone's sleep patterns.

Limerick 22

Larry was a famous sea bass
Whose antics were always quite crass.
He would talk about crud,
Play in the mud,
And in the hot tub, he would pass gas.
