119. my itunes does this weird thing where it'll take a .2 second phrase of a song and loop it for about 5 seconds so it gets all reichian. it's wicked fresh and psychedelic.

EMOTICONS HAVE BEEN PATENTED BY CINGULAR

patented or trademarked? are emoticons an invention you can patent? i would think you could only register the term "emoticon" but who knows....

― hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 2 February 2006 00:53 (eighteen years ago) link

best part about milwaukee: close to chicago!

that is not an insult!

atomic records is good, if i recall.

― gear (gear), Thursday, 2 February 2006 02:29 (eighteen years ago) link

123. Advancement!

― adamrl (nordicskilla), Thursday, 2 February 2006 22:37 (eighteen years ago) link

atomic is ok but for full-on totally awesome second-hand crazy rare lps for cheap, there's other places that are much, much better. ask stormy davis about my $15 "black woman" in the shrinkwrap, and i'll tell you about his skr3wdr!v3r lp.

― hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 2 February 2006 22:40 (eighteen years ago) link

and your TIm Buckley "Blue Afternoon"!!! I can't remember what I did last Fridaty but I actually remember that. or wait, was it Starsailor? ahhh ... the roffles of yesteryear..

I've never been rekkerd shopping in Milwaukee. I've only been there to see Brewer games, and once when we road-tripped up to see Bailter Space and then went drinking downtown. good times.

124. finally got word from both people i asked to write grad school recommendations for me that they will be happy to do it. whew!

― tehresa (tehresa), Friday, 10 February 2006 18:01 (eighteen years ago) link

I remember that feeling - it's a relief, especially when they ain't seen you for four-five years.

― Lil' Eno (nordicskilla), Friday, 10 February 2006 18:03 (eighteen years ago) link

ha. i misread that as booth people and figured you walked into a mall and asked some random person to write your recommendations

― team jaxon (jaxon), Friday, 10 February 2006 18:19 (eighteen years ago) link

125. long coffee break with jon and steve shasta and steve's lady!!!!!!

― hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 10 February 2006 19:13 (eighteen years ago) link

I remember that feeling - it's a relief, especially when they ain't seen you for four-five years.

yes. one i haven't seen since about may '03 and the other since may '04. the latter was my voice teacher sr year and i haven't even emailed her since graduating. but luckily she came through. i was nervous about asking her cause i only worked with her for one year. my teacher for the 3 years prior to that died, so the person who knew me best isn't around to recommend me. (maybe that part should go on the bummers thread?)

that's great. i hate asking people to do stuff like that for me, but it's awesome when they come through.

― having fun with stockholm cindy on stage (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 10 February 2006 20:52 (eighteen years ago) link

such a relief! i hate asking, too. if i'm in a position of power, i can tell people what to do, no problem. but if i'm in a position where i'm the underling i freak out about asking... like... at work i could call anyone and be confident and shit, but if i need to call someone of authority for personal matters, i get soooo nervous.
