• after listening to garbage’s new album “bleed like me” for a week
  now… the verdict is…. *sigh*  acceptable, but not particularly
  memorable.  my guess is the bickering and arguing between shirley
  and her talented band was probably somethign like “gee shirley, you’ve
  been gettin awfully poppy these last two albums… we’re kinda worried
  you’re gonna pull a gwen…” so basically she gave up and was like
  “okay fine, we’ll try it your way…” and back to like a rock and roll
  band sound… alas that loses a lot of the magic of garbage…. 
  so i spose after average to mediocre record sales… they’ll break up
  afterall.  and shirley will go solo.

  jack johnson’s latest is still in heavy rotation my car cd player.  awesome cd.  so mellow, so good.

  getting excited about the gorillaz’s second album due out may 24,
  2005.  demon something or rather… you can preorder it already on
  amazon.

  also, foo fighters are wrapping up recording.  even though dave
  has been on like everyones album this year… he apparently has had
  time for a record breaking foo fighters album recording…. 9
  months!!!  did you know the previous album, “one by one” was
  recorded in only 2.5 weeks?!!! pretty crazy… what the hell did they
  do for 9 months…. will it be just like totally insanely awesome… or
  were they just struggling and bickering? we’ll see hopefully sometime
  this summer.

  in other news, work is work.  had a good trip snowboarding in
  mammoth 2 weeks ago.  awesome conditions.  i’m better than
  ever.  going off tons of jumps and wut not.  look like a real
  pro.  think we’re going to mammoth again with my coworkers in
  early may.

  my court date for my 110mph speeding ticket looms.  *sigh* 
  time for my slap on the wrist for being so naughty. 
  bastards.  friday april 29, 2005 we’ll get to see if i they really
  can put me in jail after all even though that’d be drastic
  overpunishment.

  went to an einstein exhibit in LA this past weekend.  his random
  writings, a few personal belongings… mostly junk… nothing
  special.  it was funny though to see old men trying to argue
  layman’s physics with the museum curators.  they were all art
  students, but had been “thoroughly trained” to curate this
  exhibit.  then went to venice after to oggle the freaks. 
  which reminded me it’s beach season and i’m still a fat bastard. 

  anywayz, happy 4/20 everybody… *sigh* this time last year i was in
  baltimore with mr. woo for the upsilon reunion… beer garden!!! guess
  it’s not happening this year… *sigh*  off to catch a quick snack
  before another new south park! (i’ve been so spoiled now for weeks with
  a new south park every week!)
