fascinates/scares goes hand in hand on this stuff for me. I was literally shaking a little while ago and had to turn on the TV for background noise, but I've been searching and reading for almost an hour now and I can't stop.

Okay, I'm out. I must force myself off the internet and into bed before I have an episode.

nice!

Almost every single one of those pictures can be explained by shutter speed and shooping.

shooping?

btw, what's intriguing is not the technical side of the pics, but the "circumstances" they've been taken in.
like the girl that stands in that doorway while the floor is on fire, it's cool.
or the guy leaning on the wall, who "wasn't there" according to video shoot and witnesses.

I mean, it's not that "GIRL, GHOSTS ARE REAL!!!! THOSE ARE PROOFS!", coz I think I don't even believe in ghosts basically, but it's like good ol' spooky stories.

p.s. and most of the times weird pics can be explained by simple lies of the ones who took them. like the one with the baby and the babygirl "watching" him, "There were no dolls in the house". Ok, but who says they're not lyin'? ha.

I'm bored and it's cold, it's not a big deal, I'm just killing time, I don't mean to start an argument or anything.
here's a pic of what we saw on the AV "blue" channel with no signal on a tv in a friend of mine home:

Shooping. Uhhh. Slang for photoshopping.

my old house used to scare the shit out of me. i'd be terrified to go to sleep.

Wintery mix all day today. Sooooooo cold.


I know, but I just can't make myself believe that every one of those is faked.

^ Word.

I have a J. Crew shawl collar cardigan on the way to help ward off the current cold snap.

Also pressing the home espresso machine into extraordinary service.

My bank is filled with such a bunch of fuck-ups.

Today I wrote a check on my account to deposit in my son's account at the same bank. The teller deposited my check into my account, not my son's. I had made out the check to his name and his account number, so there could be no mistake--and yet somehow they managed to make a mistake. In other words, she deposited funds from my checking account into my checking account--essentially adding free money to my account. Uh, yeah, Apparently, using this method, you can easily increase your checking account balance simply by writing checks to yourself!

And then after I noticed the mistake, it took the bank, I kid you not, a full 30 minutes to correct their mistake.

Idiots. Boycott Wachovia.

I hate Wachovia. I changed to them because they used to have an ATM on campus, but they removed it at the beginning of the years. Hello $40 cash-backs from Walgreens.

They have the stupidest rules I've ever encountered at any bank. I have to deposit a lot of paper checks because most of my freelance clients don't set up direct deposit with me. Wachovia has a policy of holding any paper-check deposit that's not a Wachovia check for 5 business days. They say it's for my own protection so I won't bounce checks in case the check turns out to be bogus. What a bunch of bullshit. This is the day of the instantaneous transaction and they have to wait for 5 days for a check to clear!!?? I think it's really so they can use my money for free for five days. I hate them. If switching banks were not so damned inconvenient, I'd do it. I just don't have the patience or time to sort all that out and start over again with an unknown bank.

I'm most likely going to be doing that in May, after switching to Wachovia last June. It's a huge hassle, but I really need to be able to access my money in several states without useless fees.

tom gabel was on steven's untitled rock show today. after weeks of tivoing and sifting through some crappy videos, he plays great stuff today and.. tom is there.

eeee!

josh- reinventing axl rose, i see?

Yesh. I've had it for a little while, just now getting around to listening to it. At first listen it sounds a lot like Dropkick Murphys except less violent and Irish.

my brother loves the dropkick murphys and flogging molly and bits of against me!, and boy oh boy do i hope his punk phase lasts because it's awesome.

haha. it's always good to have a punk phase...or eight. I think I might be on my 4th or 5th. I might try to phase it out after Wednesday...or maybe not.

I'm going to buy some coke now.

I assume it's not a phase but a spot in my heart. However, I try to avoid sex pistols and (particularly) the Clash. "Problems" is shit. Does this make me snob?

It doesn't make you a snob. You're entitled to your opinion. I, however, feel the Pistols and Clash to be two of the cornerstones of my early musical endeavors.

Nirvana ftw.

have you listened much to hot water music or lucero? i've been getting into them. sometimes with lucero, ben nichols's voice gets to me, but either way it's good stuff.

i would have enjoyed the book hot water music more if he didnt't talk about people farting so damn much/

I've listened to some Hot Water Music, been steadily listening to more. No Lucero though. It's mostly been post-hardcore and hardcore. Plus some other bands that I would have made fun of myself for being so into a few years ago.

I really want to go for a drive to Target, but I'm not sure if it's still raining/sleeting and I'm too lazy to look.

Saw this at my local Dollar General the other day:

OK, now that is funny.

pwned

It took me way longer than it should have to figure out how to straight-bar lace my Chucks. by way longer, I mean 5+ years.

'omg' tell me how! I've been attracting women for too long.

I think if you just screen print your Youth drawing onto a shirt with the words "I drew this", and wear it for two-weeks solid, you'll have no trouble.

thank you S Y 37! (I wish I was fucking you right now), but
I don't think wearing a shirt for two weeks would make me any more attractive (I would stink like a skunk).

Well, make multiples and get a rotation going.

I'm working on a pastel painting; but if I feel desperate about sonic sex, I'll try the t-shirt idea.

You're assuming that you can find a fuckable SY fan 'round your parts that won't be angered at the fact that Steve is the only one not at full-mast.

Bah...I can't sleep.

Me either.

It really doesn't make sense. I've had no caffeine since 9:30 and I still can't sleep. I'm not reading about ghosts or anything.

Maybe it's cause you were up late yesterday too.
At least that's how my body works.

Yeah, I have my final class of the semester tomorrow and I really need to go to it, so I'm trying to force myself to go to sleep about 2 hours earlier than normal. It's just not working. My usual schedule is 2-3am until 9am.

hey, did you make it, josh?

OMG LES SAVY FAV THIS SATURDAY WITH NO FUCKING AGE IN TAMPA! all caps!!!

I woke up when I intended to, but said "fuck it", went back to sleep and didn't wake until 3. It wasn't anything important, just a guilt-factor

Fuck yeah! NO AGE. AHHH!!!!! Misfits are tomorrow night. I need call to see if the venue has coat check.

Your tape is finished, artwork and all.
