I’m now on my fourth Xbox 360

I’ve told the tale a few times about how I went through two 360’s before the third was the charm. Well, I guess the charm wore off. Today, the system started reading all games as movies and then told me I should use the disc with an Xbox 360…uh what?
Thankfully, for me, I had a [...]

Johnny Cash “God’s Gonna Cut You Down” Video

In my last journal entry, I briefly mentioned how Staind used a Johnny Cash song to open their set (they didn’t cover it, just played his version over the speaker system). This is the song. Simple video with a ton of modern celebrities.

Papa Roach and Seether and Staind…Oh my!

This past Tuesday, I went with Joe to see a concert at the Hammerstein Ballroom in the city. The show consisted of State of Shock, Papa Roach, Seether, and Staind. As you can imagine, it was a pretty exciting lineup for me, and probably the best combination of bands I’ve ever seen. The tickets were [...]

Broken Speaker

Don’t Erase It

There’s a haze over my eyes that tells me I can’t focus
This feeling is so damning, it can sometimes be so hopeless

That I’m inspired by the chaos, my agony and weakness
Letters flow [...]

The pain actually started the day after Halloween. Because I got sick the week before, Melanie planned on taking me [...]

Would you mind a summary view on the front page?

I’ve been considering the possibility of no longer putting full posts on the front page, but, instead, putting short summaries (just the first few sentences of the post) and then giving you the option to click through to the full post if you are interested in what you see. There’s a few pros and cons [...]

Everclear “Brown Eyed Girl” Video

Everclear’s latest album, “The Vegas Years”, is a cover album and this is one of the songs on it. I just like it, that’s all.

How to lose 10 pounds in 3 days

The answer is simple: Get a badly infected wisdom tooth that prevents you from chewing and, at times, even talking, and let it play out.
For those of you who don’t know yet, I have a wisdom tooth that needs to be pulled. It’s right next to the tooth on which I had a root [...]
