When the other kids asked me which is better, Voltes V or Mazinger Z, I said Daimos was better than either of them. I wasn't very popular in that school.

Went for a walk last night and started hearing loud music in the distance. At first I figured it was one of Tigra and Bunny's Cars with the Boom, but when I turned the corner onto Ellis Street this was happening. Had to look it up: That's Joel Corry.

I always forget that I like XKCD which means that when I finally remember I have to spend several hours reading back. It can ruin a whole day's schedule.

The Tesla at a stoplight had its windows down and the speakers a thumpin'! What was coming out of them was a phone call with someone really pissed off. I mean whoever was on the line was really laying into them hard, but they didn't turn it down or roll the windows back up.

Busker played a recording of Freebird and accompanied it on a drum set. Not a particularly difficult song but he wasn't a particularly good drummer either.
He should have joined the keytar and drum machine guy playing new wave style Tejano music across the street.

Spent six months so far shopping for the worst ingredients for my next gourmet recipe. I call it PTSD (rhymes with 'pizza' but it involves crying).

It used to be funny when someone got overly excited they'd write a bunch of exclamation marks but with some random 1's appearing between them. Now that everybody types on their phones instead of keyboards no one gets that joke.

Something you don't know about me. I was one of the first cooks at Quizno's. I worked there until graduating college when the owner offered me a job which would have fast tracked me to the executive suite of a fast growing corporation. I wanted a job relevant to my music degree so I turned him down.

Where did I get that cute hand made belt I always get the most compliments on? I bought it at a car wash. And no, they don't sell them anymore, just greeting cards and air fresheners now.

I was in the band directly under the podium when Redford got his honorary doctorate at CU. He was about ten feet away from me and all I could think was, "Damn, those are some scary deep face grooves."
