I just finished a phone interview. I sort of froze up for a minute when she asked for an example of a time when I came up with a creative solution for a problem. Accountants...creative? Those are two words that aren't really supposed to go together. That's why we now have to deal with Sarbanes-Oxley. heh.

I HATE phone interviews!

My iPhone is bricked.

But I am kinda happy about it. New phone. I am free of this albatross.

This shit right here is what makes me doubt my atheism on occasion. The lord giveth and taketh.

I srsly need this. But fuck.. 500 bucks.

i just ate the most garlicy of garlic breads for dinner

my whole family did

right now, we are probably the smelliest family in the south Cook County subrubs

wtf is a subrub. it sounds kinda hot, but not family-friendly.

TMI /\

Today I heard a White Stripes song that I liked. Wish I'd noted the title.

Just switched to Explicit Dimness. So much about it that I like, so many flaws I'm not sure if I should forgive.

hitting a little too close to home now

Garlic is a wonder gift from the Gods.

My mom got struck in the face by this crackhead on the way to work this morning. She's in the hospital right now just as a precaution. I totally know this chick, too. Major cunt. The cops have her in custody already, and arranged a court date for next month.

netflix website is down

harumph

could be a crackhead

rice weevils are crawling out of my nose.

One of my co-workers just told me that dinosaurs are in the bible.

I had no response. Just left the room without saying a word.

He's talking about Behemoth and Leviathan. Behemoth is likely a hippo or elephant. Leviathan could be any number of large sea creatures or a myth (likely from parts further north) of some manner since its described as "Breathing fire", which I don't believe dinosaurs were very inclined to do.


Behemoth and Leviathan - William Blake

I have no desire to investigate the validity of his batshit crazy beliefs.

same here
I hear those Christians believe that Jesus was the son of God and the result of a virgin birth and that after he died he was resurected
crazy mofos

batshit crazy beliefs are a prime interest of mine, especially when they have to do with myth and religion. I find it fascinating that something that was originally likely a description of a large wetland based animal such as a elephant or hippo can take on the stature of a mythical monster, then be translated into Arabic where it becomes a fish large enough to hold thousands of worlds in its nostril, then be rediscovered in our own era to justify creationism and the existence of dinosaurs during the lifespan of homo sapiens. I wouldn't talk to the co-worker about all this, granted, but I find it fascinating.

Inaccuracy of dinosaur size, Jesus holding a baby alligator, Jesus riding a dinosaur. Pic always cracks me up.

it's a baby dinosaur
duh

edit
or maybe it's a giant jesus
with an adult gator

i always liked that hes not straddling the beast, but riding ever so daintily sideways.

so as not to crush his devine twig and berries

This is driving me nuts.

i have an important phone call tomorrow at 1 pm CST about freelancing opportunities with a certain Chicago based music critic whose name rhymes with Slim Ferospotus


...what?

Nice one.

Thinking about getting a drum set. Just for fun really.

edit: name some good ones, people.

Pearl kits are nice and you can get 'em cheapish

wtf?

Do you play or anything?

I been looking around the Drum forums. The Ludwig CS Custom Elite are oft recommended.

But I like the look of these;

Holy crap. She did it on purpose? Whadda bitch. Hope your mom is ok.

I used to play drums but haven't done so consistently in about four/five years. So my knowledge of what is good and new to the market is pretty bad right now. I know that the Ludwig set I played in high school was really good, though. I remember we tuned the snare absurdly high to provide a loud POP that you'd typically hear in a Piccolo snare. It probably wasn't good for the drum heads, as we were always busting them up just because they were stretched while beyond their means.


Now that I think about, my old roommate's drumset is sitting around our apartment still. He said he was looking to sell it, but hadn't gotten a chance to put it up before he moved out to Nashville. There may be a pretty sweet set that i can help you out with at a good price sitting around my place if you were interested. It's older (probably five to ten years old), but it's in really great condition and sounds good.

Cool. What does the set consist of and what is the condition?
