craigslist for dummies
as jacquie will tell you, or as any of you who have read one of my posts and have had to cut and paste my links into your computer have noticed, i'm not the most technology-savvy person in the bunch. and i have a bookcase to sell. or in this case, give away. it's an oak bookshelf with 3 shelves and it's real perty. i think the dimensions are something like 12 x 36 x 48, in no particular order. the only cost is you hauling it out of my apartment down three flights of stairs.
for the love of god, please don't make me try and post a picture on craigslist.

shining
Ah, the power of editing.
If you know "The Shining", or hell. Even if you don't. Just watch it.
Tip: The Shining is a scary ass book written by Steven King. It was also made into a scary ass movie.

it's a bout time.
anyone have any plans for tonight? i've got a unique idea: ROLLER DERBY!
this guy that lives across the hall from nate and i, has a girlfriend who plays for the "queens of pain". tonight is the championship bout, so it should be pretty intense. a league in austin, TX started all the frenzy back in 2001. read up on your history and lingo of rollerderby, and come out for some fun.
...oh yeah, it's in the bronx...

my week.
i was in texas for almost a month. patrick james manske's wedding was the primary reason for my visit, so we start off last monday with his bachelor party. to compensate for not having strippers, i made him this cake (NSFW)...
on tuesday, we carved pumpkins which would serve as decorations at the ceremony and reception.
not sure who invited this guy to the rehearsal...
hmmm...guess who's getting married next.
you can't have a trip to texas without some chips, salsa, margaritas...
...and of course drinking and driving.
texas was awesome, but it's good to be back in new york. i missed all you guys! stay tuned for a flickr photo update, with pics from my entire texas trip. hope to see you all soon. let's do this party.

My Brother fucked Bill Frist
My brother is the editor for the Associated Press newsdesk for all of Tennessee. He sent his reporter to D.C. to break this story after reading 2 lines in the Congressional Quarterly of Frist's stock sale.
Frist later blamed the media for the SEC's subsequent investigation into his insider stock sell-off.
If Frist doesn't get a "Martha Stewart" then he sure as shit isn't running for president in 2008 now. So instead of a possible President Frist, we'll see that Republican ass-wipe on the Apprentice sometime soon.

brain candy
and now for something a bit less superficial:
PBS is running an excellent program called Einstein's Big Idea that breaks down his famous equation into understandable parts and also gives credit to the scientists before him who made contributions to the discovery. It's a NOVA presentation. Trust me, it's interesting.
+
Vonnegut's new A Man Without A Country is a quick, thought-provoking read. Not to mention funny in a, "hell yes!" kind of way.

Dark of the Matinee
The Brothers Quay, with a little help from Terry Gilliam, give a polaroid transfer treatment to the Phantom in The Piano Tuner of Earthquakes.
I'm also going to try and catch The Silent Holy Stones from Tibet and absurdist comedy The French Guy at the Vancouver Int'l Film Festival. Ubu Roi!
