| So i decided to make the move and get a myspace profile. Im not sure why...maybe i thought i could use it to keep up with people better, and it seems like Xanga has lost most of its steam. Maybe i should call people instead...but i hate talking on the phone.
Sammy, the new Pearl Jam sounds great. I really like the tones and most of the melodic work. Vedder's voice is visceral and beautiful at the same time. The new Woflmother (classic rock bandwagon riding aside... ) loses me a bit i think. Also, Southside ruled today, B. Love Shetley approached me and said, "amazing who will show up when they find out we dont bring guns." Thats about right, maybe he was being funny, more than likely not. Ha, no way in hell im giving him backstage passes to Korn.
Cheeseman, heard a story about you that made me laugh. Involved the dentist and confession time. Brilliant.

| Let me tell what a good day is. Its working a routine lunch shift, then heading 40 minutes south to pick up an amp, and then heading to guitar center to buy a pack of bass strings. Only the story doesnt end there....When i went to check out, the manager that i know asked if i would like to judge the jackson, ms edition of Guitarmmageddon: Blues battle. Their original judge flaked and needed a last minute judge, I said i would love to.
I had to fill out a judge's sheet, so the mc could tell the crowd who exactly i was. There was a spot for name, and then a spot for Professional Credentials. Now, i will be the first to tell you that i dont have alot of those (unless you count having one of Pete Wentz's cell numbers), so naturally i put: Bad Ass guitar player. The crowd bought it.
As far as judging a blues competition goes, it was pretty easy. There were 5 contestants, one who was really good but probably wouldnt do so well in later rounds due to things that are mostly superficial. On the judges stand, i was one of three judges, and it gave me the chance to emulate one of my own American Idols, Randy Jackson. My middle of the road scorings helped to keep most of the pack together in a mix of 6's for creativity, 7' for technique, 5's for stage presence. Not great...but not too bad, young apprentice of the axe.
I never thought it would happen, but a friend at work gave me an mp3 disc of every Metallica CD. I am coming home to the fourth grader that thought Master of Puppets was the greatest thing ever put on to tape. I am loving it. Whenever i hit a bump in writing lyrics...im just going to go OOOOOOHHHHH Yeeeeeeaaahhhheeeeeeh! Life is good.

| Super Bowl Sunday = Limp, spent at an overpriced steakhouse. Waiting on a Mississippi/French treaty of some sort. You dont like the way i pour your wine French face!!?? I bet you dont love freedom either.
Weekend = going to bed at 9:30 while viewing a cocktail of Corpse Bride, Fight Club, Lemony Snicket...(I think it was something about Helena Bonham Carter), which now makes me wonder if she influenced MCR's Helena video in any way....
Spending five minutes pondering MCR's motivations = Worse than spending Superbowl Sunday working.
Mick Jagger = Amazing, Old, Scary, Sexy, all at the same time.
Watching 40 minutes of Hilary Clinton = Confirms my fear that we are F'd, mostly because of the Middle East. Visit Iloveagrungebandthatineverwouldhavelikeduntilmirrorball's xanga daily reports for more on that.
Making your own Album = Overrated. Too many of those out anyway.
Your wife seeing Brokeback Mountain = Strangely attractive
AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaHHH - Life
Talking to my friend Jeb = always encouraging
For the four people who read this = listening to "Phantom of the Opera" soundtrack and the new Nada Surf.

| I bought a car today. I would recommend stealing your brother's car and using it as a trade in. Saved me about $7,000.
Those Geico commercials are clever, but it makes me wonder if they actually sell insurance.
Soon i quit work to make a stab at recording a full length album. I really just want to get across what it feels like to be a young man. Or maybe going through the transition to manhood. I feel differently now, and am starting to notice it. I like it, and i dont feel so out of place around older people anymore....or plumbers (ie. hard pipehitters). As far as the album goes, maybe you will get John Wayne, maybe you will get Brokeback. I guess it doesnt matter. We thought really hard about naming it: "Loosen Your Bible Belt."
I hate panic!, but probably for a different reason than you do.

| I was one of the 500 people who watched Colour Revolt release their ep
yesterday. The only dissapointment was that Drewbie's combover
sweated out after the first song.
My dad, "Microwave" Mitch always wears v-necks. Im pretty
sure my grandpa Henry wears v-necks. My time has come.
We should have called the song "Merry Christmas." Then I could
have taken the night off and opened presents instead.
Top cd of 05: Wicked Soundtrack. and that one Imagen Heap song before i listened to it too much.
I miss my apartment.
I used "Tom Cruisin' for a bruisin" in conversation yesterday. Your check is in the mail Sammy.
At the restaurant where i work, three thirtysomething black women came
to eat lunch. They asked me if we had any fried chicken
left. I said yes. They joined hands and started praising
the Lord, eventually breaking out into prayer. I am a fan of
black women, Jesus and chicken. I joined them, and it felt good.
