Chicago: Totally hands-free!!!

Yeah, when we sold our car it was looking rough, and it was just five or six years old.

ooo storm!

Yeah, my back bumper is so scraped up, it's ridiculous. I mean, half of the damage is probably my fault, but Julia's right: that's sort of what I expect when I live and drive in Chicago.

jesse what's wrong with your flickr? It looks fine to me.

I HAXXORED IT DOOD

STORM'S A-BREWING

I HAXXORED THE WEATHER TOO

Fun! I could go for a big f'n storm.

What should I have for dinner?

sushi and champagne.

It's pretty bad here, I can't see across Lake Cook through the driving rain.

the still-beating heart of a young boy

No organ meat.

:(

ok, steak and baked potato.

Baked potato... yes. I like the sound of that. Thanks, Kenan.

you should put hot salt on that potato

my car is 10 years old and still looks pretty snazzy, but i guess that's what sitting in a garage while i live in london for 6 of those years will do for it.

i'm watching dawsons, and it's the episode where pacey is horrible at the prom which i remember being really sad and am wondering if i can even watch it.

do not hot salt your car
it will cause damages

so can anybody come out tonight or was that too short notice? jenny, i know you wanted to hang out again with the good doctor!

What did Pacey do? I only really watched the first two seasons of that show religiously.

i have to work til 7 and then try to push a full dumpster back to its rightful spot (by the fence, not in the backyard) because some boneheaded neighbor of mine decided to move it so s/he could have more room for the SUV.

note: living in a condo with awful neighbors is like having horrible, negligent roommates who never ever move out. i can't say any more because of PENDING LITIGATION.

i keep forgetting to eat a proper meal today.

If I were A, I would use my POS car to push the dumpster so it parks in the SUV. Then I would go have a beer. QED

but then i would have to drive into the backyard
what i really want to do is make the people who moved it in the first place push it back, but they seem to think they didn't do anything wrong.

dawson's creek reminds me of living in wilmington.

one time pacey's giant dog tried to rape my cocker spaniel.

OTM!

Er, XP!

Junie disagrees, Laurel. :(

It was a cross-post to Dan. :( I lub Junie.

DING HER DOOR.

^^^^ NOT A LAWYER

Or dump your garbage on/in the car!

WITH THE DUMPSTER.

(xxpost)

Stingy, it's a bit late, notice-wise, although it's true that I want to hang with the good doc again.

if i remember correctly, he basically picks a fight with joey and maybe even dumps her because he's flunking out and insecure. he may even try to hook up with another girl. all this while they are trapped on a boat.

this is why social events on moving boats are BAD.

If I were A, I would use my POS car to push the dumpster so it parks in the SUV. Then I would go have a beer. QED

i would block in the suv then fill said dumpster with several 80lb bags of sackcrete then take a garden hose to it. trying to get that thing to move after the concrete sets would be a sisyphusian endeavor.

Yeah, dumping the garbage in the spot would be a GREAT idea. Honestly, what I see happening is me going door-to-door asking for help push/pulling a giant, heavy dumpster back to its rightful home. And maybe taking pictures so people NEVER FORGET 9/25/07.

xp - He's insecure because his dog is an attempted rapist.

Wait, maybe I have seen that episode.

Thanks for the National link, dan. I have trouble following discussions about recording gear but the drum sound on that record is great, and those dudes have some sweet sweet guitars.

T0y0ta Corolla, bitches

whoa -- stormin'

I love the drumming on that record. Dude plays uncomplicated but really interesting parts.

big storming!

that episode was pretty sad but not as bad as i remembered. still, i'm not going to go on parties on boats just in case, you know?

This video is funny because I think you see the drummer more than you see the singer.

Oh you better believe I was mentally recording how he played some of those parts while watching them the other night. He's got a pretty minimal kit (only one cymbal + hats) but gets a hell of a lot out of it.

er, plus bass, 2 toms & snare

Their singer is very uncharismatic.

but in general, I think a lot of the dark meaty sound came from the 1953 Neumann U-47 in front of the kit.

This is the boring answer to why good-sounding records recorded in awesome studios sound good

Does anyone have a 1953 Neumann U-47 we can borrow?

would i like that band better if i played an instrument?
