  • What’s This Title For

        Great.  How’s everyone doing.  What’s going on in your life.  And the person sitting next to you’s life.  And some strangers’ lives.  I want to know what’s going on in EVERYONE’S lives.  That’d be weird.  Anyway here’s some five paragraphs that are my life-centric.  Centric could be a bandname.  It will be one day.  Everything will be a bandname EVENTUALLY.  Unless music stops being at thing at some point, then logic tells us as time goes on, we run out of band names, eventually we have to use increasingly more and more obscure band names.  So eventually Everything Is A Band Name.  Unless music stops being a thing at some point!  I prefer the lots of bad band names scenario to music stopping.  Anyway we just got a new Vacuum Cleaner.  If Vacuum Cleaner was a band name what would it mean.  Initials are VC.  Might be a reference to the Viet Cong.  Vietname War.  That’s the only thing I can think of that it might mean.  Otherwise I’m drawing a blank.  I saw the trailer for the new Supergirl movie.  I don’t really like Space Movies!  I can trick myself into liking A Star Wars here or a Project Hail Mary there but just in general I relate to Earth Movies a lot more than Outer Space Movies.  Just don’t GET aliens and/or their settings.  Not like Humans On Earth.  PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET?  NOW THIS I UNDERSTAND. 
        Not really.  Okay.  Maybe I just don’t get THE GROOVE for Supergirl (2026) like I did for Superman (2025).  Maybe Supergirl isn’t made for me specifically to groove on and/or with.  I DIUNNO pretty sure Everything Is Made Specifically For Me.  Oh okay gotta see the movie to find out.  Anyway.  The dog is still there in this movie.  But now the dog is kind of Betraying Superman by being friends with Supergirl so it’s not all good feelings.  They’re all friends together.  There’s nothing wrong there.  I dunno.  Dog gotta choose one.  Pick a True Best Friend.  And ya know what at this point it’s too late Now You Get No One.  JUST LEAVE DOG.  YOU GET NO BEST FRIEND.  NOBODY WANTS YOU NOW.  Anyway.  His name is Krypto!  I discovered HBO had a Sci-Fi spin off of Tales From The Crypt that lasted one season that’s mostly available on youtube.  If you’re a Tales From The Crypto fanatic like I am look it up!  What’s it called Michael that will help me look it up.  Hmm.  What’s it called.  Perversions Of Science.  It’s okay!  Hmm.  Initials are POS.  I guess it’s implying that each episode is a Piece Of Shit.  But they’re not!  They’re mostly 65% as good as any Tales From The Crypt episode are and/or is!  Anyway.  The Crypt Keeper character is a CGI Sexy Female Robot.  She’s okay!  She’s very suggestive, I’ll tell ya that much!
       Okay.
      I don’t know what to do with life.  My music hasn’t quite been getting better lately.  My blog writing has atrophied.  My critical thinking skills aren’t great.  I figure do the things I’ve been doing and cross my fingers and hope for the best.  WRONG.  GOTTA change something somehow.  Oh okay.  Maybe the change can be something FUN though.  Like start Drinking Heavily or something.  Maybe that’s the key!  That sounds promising!  Anyway.  That’s not a realistic option.  TRY HARDER is the best option.  Do what I’m doing but with more TRYING. Ugh.  I haven’t tried since I was in high school!  Had to put in a lot of time and effort studying for tests and writing papers.  And guess what it sucked!  Didn’t I have to do that for college, too.  YEAH but somewhat less.  College was significantly easier and less work than high school.  Feels kinda weird I got a degree to be honest.  I don’t remember learning much of anything.  Anything worthwhile I did learn for tests or wrote papers on went one in ear and out the other.  Now it’s happening again at School Of Rock!  I don’t remember how to play the Pat Benatar songs or Rolling Stones songs I learnt I don’t think!  Although if I looked at how to play them it might jog my memory and I’d pick it right back up quick. Plus my general skill level at guitar may have gotten irrevocably better.  THEN AGAIN MAYBE IRRETRIEVABLY WORSE.  I dunno.
        Okay.  What’s the point.  Maybe the point is I’m unqualified to do anything.  I have an English Degree but it means nothing because I learned nothing.  Maybe other people with an English degree it actually means something.  They KNOW THEIR STUFF and they’re GOOD AT IT.  For me it just means I read a Charles Dickens book once and passed a couple of tests confirming I did in fact read the book and that’s pretty much it more or less… maybe I wrote a half assed essay or two that were 50% summary.  And that academic level experience over the course of, what, two or three dozen classes?  BACHELOR’S DEGREE.  Hmm.  Maybe that’s why I do bad, un-trying creative things.  I did poor, un-trying Academic Work.  How can I break the trend.  I’m not sure it’s possible to break a trend.  Trends are one of the toughest things in the universe.  Trends by definition can be broken.  Yeah but they also By Definition TREND NOT TO BE BROKEN.  Huh. Lemme think about this one.  Anyway.  This is the trend.  My only friend the trend.  I don’t understand how Jason Momoa was Aquaman and now is someone else.  You can’t do that!  It’s the same universe of films more or less.  What about Robert Downey Junior being Iron Man and now coming back as Dr. Doom.  I don’t like that either now that you bring it up!  What about Jesus returning after three days of being dead.  NOT A FAN OF THAT EITHER now that you bring that up!  Anyway.  What was Christ doing for exactly three days.  Just hanging out.  But what took that amount of time precisely?  And then after 72 hours he looks at his watch and is like well they’ve worried about me enough…
       
    I might be getting things mixed up.  I dunno how it went down.  Anyway.  Wasn’t THAT the second coming of Christ?  Him showing up 3 days later?  And if he comes back again, that’d be the THIRD coming?  If we wanna be pedantic about things?  Again, I dunno exactly what happened.  Not like you.  You probably know exactly what happened!  Anyway.  WHAT IS AQUAMAN DOING IN SPACE.  I was confused!  No one should have to feel that way!  Anyway.  A big part of Superman’s deal is that He’s Helping People.  I thought that would translate to Supergirl.  How is she helping people if she’s not even on Earth.  ERGO I can’t relate to this movie!  OH NO.  There’s Astronauts circling the moon or something right now as we speak.  I’m gonna trust they have a good reason for doing it but a big part of me thinks they just felt like doing it for fun.  They’re testing The Orion’s life support systems.  I don’t know what that means exactly but OK.  IF YOU SAY SO.  SURE.  I’ll believe you for the most part!  Is this related to Orion: The Production Company?  I’ve seen that logo before movies!  Huh.  Okay.  HMM.  Probably more of a reference to Orion’s Belt.  If that constellation didn’t exist I guess Orion’s Pants would drop?  Sorry.  WHO IS Orion.  Some Greek Asshole I’m guessing.  Anyway.  That’s all.  See ya next week.

  • The Worst Title In A While

        There’s nothing good about that title.  I don’t know why anyone would commit to it.  What kind of PERSON.  Anyway let’s write entry.  Today is the last day of March.  Finally, we get to stop Marching!  If you’re anything like me you’ll agree we’ve been Marching forever.  Now I know how soldiers feel.  They have to march all the time. For practice.  When it counts.  In March like the rest of us.  Anyway.  Where am I going with this.  What Am I Marching Toward.  I dunno.  I dunno what to talk about!  I don’t know what to think about.  I don’t know what to do about.  Well what’s been on my mind lately.  Okay.  I don’t wanna dignify myself with an answer.  I don’t feel comfortable talking to myself.  I prefer talking to the MEDIUM FORMAT that I’m preforming in.  I start talking to myself, I get distracted, then who knows if I’lll ever recover!  Anyway what’s on YOUR mind, Other Michael.  WELL I’m a little concerned that I’m having difficulty with coming up with things to talk about!  Oh okay.  There’s many topics to talk about!  FILM.  TECHNOLOGY.  LITERATURE.  WOODWORKING.  THE EPHEMERAL.  Stop me at any time.  I see there’s a new show The Pitt and to me it seems like it’s just Doctors Being Doctors.  What’s the big deal?  What makes it special?  Something better make it special!  Otherwise I don’t like it!       
        I assume it specializes in Pit Doctors.  Armpit doctors.  Take care of that zone of the body specifically.  Someone’s gotta do it and so far I’ve never seen any other doctor do it before!  Anyway.  Last night I watched the first half of My Dinner With Andre.  I like Wallace Shawn who was also from Clueless.  He’s literally my height!  Good movie!  If someone like HIM can get to have dinner with an old friend maybe there’s hope for me too!  Anyway I wouldn’t wanna do that.  The conversation is stimulating enough to enjoy privately but if I was actually there having dinner with Andre I’d be like Oh No How Do I Get Out Of Here I’m Not Having Fun Lemme Go Home Please.  Also compared to his co-star this guy is ANDRE THE GIANT am I right?  Anyway.  Why couldn’t the movie have been called My Dinner With Shawn.  BOYCOTT THIS MOVIE WITH ME.  Shawn Wallace erasure!  That took up a few sentences.  Wallace Shawn.  Shawn Wallace.  I really don’t know what his name is anymore!  It’s Wallace Shawn.  Okay I’ll remember that.  Anyway.  I wanna eat what they’re eating in the movie.  They get the same main course but each gets a different appetizer and I wanna eat all three of the different meals they get.  3 out of 4 stars.  MMM MOVIES.
        New Topic Time.  Who decided we should rate things by STARS.  What does A STAR have to do with rating things?  They probably mean Asterisks.  Those make sense as a place holder.  No critic is rating things by Astronomy Stars.  Hmm.  We’ll never know.  Anyway.  You can’t spell Asterisk without At Risk.  I don’t know why you would want to!  Anyway where is my life Marching to.  Not just right now in this entry but existentially.  What am I marching towards.  Well, death of course, like everyone else.  I meant before that!  In the meantime!  I guess I’m heading towards Pre-death then I suppose.  I think I can do better than pre-death!  Life is more than pre-death!  I dunno, somethin’ll happen.  You’ll see!  Anyway.  I assume The Pitt is sponsored by Axe Body Spray.  In real life I assume Axe Body Spray is long bankrupt and out of business.  That’s too bad.  What else is going on.  Been watching TV this weekend, you guys ever do that?  Probably!  But I’m not sure!  That’s your business though.  Well, your recreational time.  Not really your BUSINESS to watch TV.  How could you monetize Watching TV!  Hmm.  Maybe it’s possible.  Maybe I should look into that.
        New Tupac Time.  Yeah.  In middle school a friend once told me that any music attributed to Tupac was made and released by the real Tupac and any music assigned to 2pac was made and released by an imposter post-Real-Tupac’s-death.  I didn’t find out until later that That’s Just Wrong.  That’s a thing in life.  People just confidently say things That Are Just Wrong.  Something I picked up at some point!  Anyway.  There was a No Kings protest pretty close to where I lived but I didn’t go to it.  I didn’t have material to make a sign!  I slept through it anyway!  It was a bit too far to walk!  I protested in my own way by improving PROTEST MUSIC.  No King.  Knocking.  Hmm.  Interesting.  They’re good people I assume.  I can only wonder what kind of great lifelong friends I’m mussing out on by not going to that one event.  My Dinner With No Kings.  You ever play No Kings Poker.  It’s just poker but No Kings.  Take the kings out of the deck!  Really levels up the skill level required for the game.  Takes it to the next level!  Good luck making a straight ending in Ace that’s all I’m gonna say.  You’ll have some difficulty there!  Anyway Here’s a tip for United States Military worried about how to deal with Strait of Whatever in Iran War—What beats Strait?  A FLUSH.  You figure the rest out!  I’ve done my part!
       Cool.  Here’s a popsicle joke I just came up with. What Chocolate was the first pronouns?  HER/SHEY.  Well anyway what should I do for the rest of the night.  Well I have several options.  Not really.  Really only one option.  What I end up doing. IT’S BEEN WRITTEN IN THE ASTERICKS.  Asteroids.  I dunno.  Maybe I should rewatch Armageddon.  I watched that a lot when I was younger but I haven’t seen it in at least five or seven years.  When I was a child I acted as a child would and when I was an adult I simply lost contact with the film Armageddon.  Okay.  Imagine if they made an Armageddon II.  NOW ACTUALLY IMAGINE IF THEY REALLY MADE AN ARMAGEDDON II FOR A REAL.  Imagine it actually happening for real.  Don’t just play around.  IMAGINE IT.  I guess the plot is oh look ANOTHER meteor is heading towards the Earth… again so soon!  Or it could be a different kind of Armageddon.  I dunno.  Ideally it’s the kind of Armageddon that The Surviving Oil Drillers can solve.  Oh I Know the Armageddon is Climate Change.  And you can get them to help by telling them to Just Stop Drilling.  Ok.  But getting half a dozen drillers to stop wouldn’t solve climate change.  IT’S A START.  Anyway.  I guess that’s it.  I’ll see ya later.

  • You Wanna Read An Entry Or Somethin’

        Awesome.  Here’s somethin’ I guess.  How’s everyone doing?  I’m making progress with these Relatively Tough Blues Songs for School Class.  Some of these, “licks” are difficult!  How do you spell, “Lick,” in this context.  Better Lick That Up Right Quick.  Internet seems comfortable with spelling it, “Lick.”  Good.  WE LEARNT SOMETHING.  Or at least CONFIRMT SOMETHING.  I think in popular music they talk about oral sex like it’s like licking a lollipop but that tells me you’ve only experienced or seen at most one of those activities.  Probably neither is what I’m suspecting.  Maybe I’m the wrong one I Dunno.  Also shake it like a polaroid picture?  I can’t SHAKE MYSELF THAT FAST.  I’d hurt myself trying.  The new Academy Award for casting is the Outkast award.  The winner outcasted all the other movie film enterprises that year!  Well done.  Looks like we got a new Weezer song coming out tomorrow.  Weezer has always been there for me and for you.  They might not be the coolest band but they sure got a lot of interesting good songs.  Also they might be the coolest band!  I dunno!  I’m not sure what the Cool Algorithm is!  NO CLUE what determines coolness At All.  Hmm what is the coolest band.  Probably The Replacements.  MAYBE Miles Davis.  Could be I dunno off the top of my head DAVID BOVIE.
      
    Okay.  Must be hard to be cool.  Constantly gotta keep up being cool.  Indefinitely.  Forever. That’d be a huge hassle and very difficult!  Then again if you’re cool it might come completely naturally so it’s no problem at all to keep being cool.  Oh Ok.  If you’re not cool though but you’re temporarily cool so much pressure to keep being cool.  At any given moment you might do something and then your audience will be like WAIT A SECOND… THAT WASN’T COOL.  I thought this guy was cool!  This latest thing they did wasn’t cool!  I’m OUTTA HERE!  Okay.  That’s why I’m comfortable being Lame and Weird.  It comes naturally to me so it’s no problem doing it forever and people aren’t upset or surprised when I am weird and lame moreso!  What was I talking about.  WHO CARES IT TOOK UP HALF A PARAGRAPH.  And it took up some of your time as well.  Thirty seconds.  Ten minutes.  I dunno how long it takes for you to read.  Hmm.  My new band name is Thirty Seconds To Ten Minutes.  Very good.  If only Thirty Seconds To Mars had some real bangers, they could be the band they play when humans land on mars.  Gotta put on some sort of soundtrack for when that happens.  What were they playing when Apollo 11 landed on the moon?  Ain’t No Mountain High Enough I think.  I dunno just throw on some Seven Nation Army for when Human Steps on Mars and call it a day.  Everyone’s happy.
        Anyway.  I don’t like this entry so far.  It’s worse than the median entry!  Oh No.  That’ll happen half the time!  I’M Scared.  What to talk about.  Got my guitar on my lap for inspiration.  This will get me going.  Acoustic guitar on me.  Play a little bit here and there Nothing Fancy Nothing Heavy Nothing Complete.  JUST TO GET JUICE FLOWING.  Oh no Mets game is starting.  That will distract me.  That will get the juice constipated!  Terrible!  First game of the season.  If I were a baseball player I’d call seasons Campaigns.  First ironically and then over time with sincerity.  I guess I can do that as any sort of entertainer.  Call TOURS campaigns.  I can call my life a Campaign.  It’s not really a Campaign unless it’s from the campaign region of France.  Yes.  Okay.  Who cares.  METS are already losing 2-0 2 batters into the season!  COOL!  IT’S A SIGN!  A sign to turn the TV off!  Aww I wanted to see Mets Batters.  But there’s more important things at stake!  MY LIFE and MY RESPONSIBLIITIES for instance.  Now I know how readers feel when reading my entries.  HEY MICHAEL IS LOSING 2-0 ALREADY JUST TWO PARAGRAPHS IN.  I SHOULD JUST QUIT READING AND FOCUS ON MY LIFE.  Oh Okay Now I Know How Bo Bichette Feels.
       Anyway.  Bo Bichette.  The Best A Man Can Get.  It’s ad copy you wouldn’t understand.  Okay.  Great.  Don’t wanna alarm anyone but I’ve got high glucose.  Had some bloodwork done earlier this week and my glucose was abnormal!  Sugar is high huh I guess that means I’m a big sweetie pie.  Nothing to be concerned about probably.  No one told me to be concerned!  I’m concerned about other things like Watching Mets Games for the next six months without enjoying them.  I’ll be putting them on but it’ll actually be the wrong move.  I’d get more out of anything else!  I DUNNO.  WE’LL SEE.  The campaign is still early!  Hey the Mets just took a 4-2 lead. That’s exciting.  Very fun.  Good.  I don’t care so much.  You care magnitudes less.  You’re not here for Dated Baseball Updates.  I Hope Not!  OR I HOPE SO.  IF you’re getting your Mets Updates then all of a sudden this entry has PURPOSE. THIS ENTRY WAS A BUNCH OF MISTAKES IN A ROW.  Each topic was wrong.  Everything I said WAS WRONG.  What have we learned.  Have we gotten anything out of our mistakes?  Yes.  Don’t watch baseball while writing entry.  NEVER WATCH BASEBALL while writing.
       Okay ok.  What else is up.  As long as we’re writing a bad entry, might as well write a shitty fifth paragraph!  NO NEED to finish strong!  That’s how I feel about sex in general and that’s how I feel about today’s entry.  What was the movie where it’s like If you give them a good ending then that’s all you need.  Oh.  Adaptation.  But it’s also true When Having Sex I Assume.  It’s funny because I didn’t particularly like the ending to Adaptation most of my life.  Maybe it grew on me at some point.  Sure it’s very DRAMATIC.  But so what.  I just usually don’t get much of anything out of it!  Wonder if I’ll get anything out of the ending of My Life.  I won’t have much time to evaluate really.  Oh well.  Probably will be biased against it because I don’t want my life to end in general.  I’m against any form that my life ending takes no matter what happens exactly to be honest!  Probably.  For at least five years following its release I had trouble thinking Adaptation was actually named Adaption which may or may not be a real word.  Internet says it’s a real word but not really.  That’s What I THOUGHT.  Cool.  That’s IT.  Been getting some spam bot comments lately on the website.  Good sign!  Means the blog is on the map!  We’re taking off!  Anyway.  That’s IT.  See ya later!

  • I’ll Be Right With You

        Hi!  Entrytime.  Woke up at an appropriate time TWICE days in a row for doctor’s appointments.  Well, for patient’s appointments.  ME.  ME-CENTRIC LANGUAGE.  I should be the hero of my story.  Either way it’s uncomfortable getting up after a mere nine hours of sleep for about twenty minutes and then it wears off relatively quickly no big deal!  I hope when I get signed to a record label it’s a big deal.  I need to support my future family.  My parents won’t be around to support me and my future family forever!  Hmm.  Better make RECORD LABEL QUALITY music then. Oh okay.  Hipcore is the genre we’re aiming for, I know that much.  Anyway I came up with a music name SO APPROACHING USABLE that part of my brain is passively associating it with my most recent music.  I DID IT.  WHAT HAVE I DONE.  It’s a good name but it also negates any other possible name.  Sure it calls all the great contexts this name creates into question in a good way BUT IT ELIMANATES the infinity of other possible contexts there could be once I settle on this name!  No name music could be about Anything.  One name music is NARROWED DOWN.  WHY DO ARTISTIC PEOPLE NAME THEMSELVES.  Seems unproductive from this angle!   
       Gotta contextualize yourself ultimately at SOME point!  Gotta give people SOMETHIN.  I’m not sure if that’s true.  If I feel uneasy about it, that’s probably just a sign the name I’m thinking of using for a band/one man act extravaganza isn’t The Greatest Name!  Oh okay sounds fair.  IT’S SO CLOSE TO GOOD THOUGH.  That’s how I feel!  Anyway I started rewatching the SAW films.  This time around they really nailed it with the titles.  YES.  I DID SAW THESE FILMS.  I SAW THESE FILMS BEFORE.  NOT LIKE LAST TIME.  Anyway.  For some reason I was really into the one with Chris Rock at the time.  I thought it was gonna catapult him into bigger and better dramatic roles.  I TINK I gave the Saw Franchise too much credit for being a Hollywood fixture.  I hope at some point in my life over the next 40 years we get to a film WAS.  And they play around with time travel in it.  Seems pretty straightforward.  WHY CAN’T Jigsaw travel through time.  SWA… I dunno.  All the anagrams.  I’m good at creativity!  If Jigsaw could go back in time would he SAW Baby Hitler.  Sure he’d SAW ADULT Hitler.  Hmm.  He’d probably ultimately settle on Art Student Hitler.  Seems the most rich experience for some reason.  You can’t really Saw a baby.  They can’t do anything to get out of trap.  And they haven’t done anything to be remorseful of yet.  Hey Baby Remember the time you cried and woke up mother in her sleep.  Now it is you who will face the cries.
       
    Feels like if Jigsaw was real, Trump would have given him some sort of big authority job, right?  He gets to decide our sentences.  Makes sense.  THAT’S THE WORLD we’re living in.  Jigsaw is real.  There’s ten movies about him.  At some point if there’s enough movies about you it’s more or less real!  Oh okay good.  Anyway I saw Project Hail Mary and I thought it was great!  For the most part.  I really thought it was Very Good to be honest.  I didn’t feel I was watching a Great movie.  I thought I was watching a Very Good movie.  I was distracted because every time I saw the abbreviation PHM (Project Hail Mary) in the film I just kept thinking about Penis Humiliation.  Downgraded a Great movie to a Very Good movie!  Anyway.  Ryan Gosling’s name was almost like Ryan Gosling. Ryland Grace.  That’s his character’s name.  HMM.  I noticed something similar and even moreso with Ella McCay recently.  Emma Mackey.  There are surely more examples of this but you get the idea.  I DUNNO. I DON’T LIKE IT.  Anyway name characters names like Michael Kornblum and apparently I’ll have the inside track!  I’m not an actor. Why would I want the inside track.  HEY A JOB’S A JOB.  It’s a tough economy out there!  Someone’s gotta feed my imaginary future family!  Probably ME for some reason!
        Okay.  I’m all set for the reboot of Arrested Development I guess!  Michael Bluth.  I’m the star somehow!  I figured out how casting works.  You cast the person with the closest name!  This is what they don’t want you to know about Hollywood!  HMM Who will play my halfway antagonistic brother.   WHO CARES A JOB’S A JOB.  Anyway.  I’m not writing the thing.  Just preforming.  Anyway.  Does Jigsaw ever say The Jig… Is Up and then shoot his victim with a gun?  My guess is NO that doesn’t sound like him.  I once called my music project The Uppers.  That lasted for years.  It was good!  It served its purpose!  I liked it!  But I don’t think I’ll be going back to that name!  Wasn’t even perfect at the time.  Was just Pretty Good Alright Sort Of Applicable, I Guess.  It was good because it was kind of bad.  But I got used to it!  Anyway.  I think Michael Bluth’s brother’s name is spelled GOB.  But you get the joke earlier, right?  So no harm done!  Just because you got the joke doesn’t mean there wasn’t any harm done.  Oh.  Okay.  So maybe some harm was done.  Sorry.  I dunno.  Let’s move on anyway!  Huh.  My next School Of Rock show is in 2.5 months.  I guess!  If I learn some of these songs a lot better than I know them right now, it’ll be PRETTY impressive!  Anyway.  Teacher wants me to play real flamboyantly on this Stevie Ray Vaughan song.  Make lots of movements with the guitar and go wild with hands and head.  I’M NO SHOWMANSHIP.  But I guess it’s a good thing to learn.  Didn’t this happen in the movie School Of Rock.  I feel like Zak has the exact line of dialogue I’M NO SHOWMANSHIP.  Hmm.
        Stevie Ray Vaughan died in plane crash.  What is it about rock stars and plane crashes.  Seems kinda suspicious.  Well I guess rock stars are more likely to cause pilot error.  They get the captain all flustered.  THERE’S A MUSICIAN ON BOARD.  Oh.  Their plane almost crashes in Almost Famous.  Well they’re almost famous in almost famous so what that’s how much, “Almost,” counts in Almost Famous.  Touche!  I see Jack Black and Jack White are hosting/musical guesting SNL in 2 weeks.  WOW.  THEY NAILED MY EXACT MUSICAL TASTE FROM SPRING 2003.  That’s pretty much THE ULTIMATE for High School Freshman Michael!  Then again Jack Black won’t be appearing as with Tenacious D.  But the idea is, imagine if he was!  D means DEFENSE in the most literal sense of the band’s name.  Some other things it might mean?  DICK.  DEMOCRAT.  DIMENSION?  I DUNNO DERMOTOLOGY LET’S MOVE ON.  Could just be they love the Note/Chord D.  IN MUSIC.  PITCH.  I DUNNO.  What is Jack Black promoting.  Anaconda coming out on VHS?  Oh The New Super Mario Bros.  I saw a trailer for that.  Seemed kind of UNSETTLING. I forget what happened but I remember feeling Something Feels Wrong.  Some video games are supposed to remain analog.  Not supposed to become big narratives with plots and understandable tangible characters with motives and whatknot.  IT’S WEIRD WHAT THEY DID TO MARIO, I’ll say it!  I guess we gotta see the movie to understand.  Alright.  I’ll see ya later.

    MARCH 24 2026

  • This Title is Too Soon!

        Okay.  Hey!  How’s everyone doing.  I should write an entry for the audience, other people, YOU, this time.  Usually I write for MYSELF.  I think I’ve had enough.  Anyway what kind of ‘Graphs you into.  What kinda paragraphs.  Ya’ll like THIS kind of ‘graphs?  Paragraphs.  Oh No PARA MEANS GHOST.  Scary!  I think I’m ghosting all the people I’ve ever known in my life except my immediate family and a few other exceptions.  Or they’re ghosting me.  Either way We Don’t Keep In Touch!  Anway.  Ghosting doesn’t make sense.  That’s when you ignore someone and go out of your way to avoid them.  I mean YES IDEALLY that’s what a ghost’s relationship is with you.  BUT NOT ALWAYS.  Often ghosts haunt you it’s a real thing and it happens and you don’t want it.  Here’s an example, if you were in the Amityville Horror and someone you knew ghosted you then What Does That Mean.  They’re in touch with you every night essentially!  Anyway.  I dunno.  The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty Horror.  I may not know what to say.  The world is at Horror right now.  Entire globe!  It’s escaped Amityville.  THE WORLD HORROR is where we’re at!  It’s not really supernatural though.  It’s supranatural I guess.  Main cause of horror seems to be concentrated in Donald Trump and his cohorts.  Oh okay good we’re narrowing it down a bit.  That’s productive.
        Whole world is on edge.  By which I mean we’re all listening to the new U2 EP.  His name is THE Edge.  Good.  He was named after the kind of masturbation he likes.  Probably.  When he first came up with it, it was an obscure phrase he thought no one would ever even think to come up with to identify him with!  Decades later though society cracked the code!  Huh.  Huh.  It’s also a chord progression.  WHO IS THAT EDGEE IN THE WINDOW.  What was I talking about.  Oh right World War III.  I’m not scared of World War III because I can’t even Fathom.  I’ll start getting scared of it in *checks watch* a couple of weeks.  My therapist rescheduled an appointment because she’s going on vacation to a country that’s currently not even involved in any violence or anything but she was like well if I cancel it because a complete world war breaks out I’ll let you know so we can go back to the original appointment.  And not in a flippant way.  That’s the reality people are facing ON EARTH today.  Probably the several active astronauts out there are facing pressure as well.  Anyway I saw they’re making a spin-off from Family Guy about Stewie.  I wonder if it will center around French Stewart: the guy from a while ago.  Some actor.  Usually comic I think.  Around the 1990’s or 2000’s usually.  I don’t know why we’re writing/reading this either.  It seems like a terrible waste of our time.
        
    I may be hitting a wall with this website/post.  MAY be just today.  MAY be website in general.  We’ll see!  What kind of things do you want me to talk about.  What are you interested in!  Michael what do YOU want to talk about.  Oh okay.  College sports can’t we get more transgender involvement in them?  I think we should get more Trans Men involved in the men side of sports.  That way YOU’LL SEE.  See what.  I dunno.  Somethin!  That’ll learn ya!  Anyway.  I almost walked into Woman’s Bathroom a couple of weeks ago at movie theater.  Literally about to cross the threshold doorway before I realized my mistake.  SCARY STUFF.  I don’t know what would have happened!  I think of Sinners about how vampires can’t get into the place.  That’s a best case scenario.  Simply wouldn’t be able to get in.  Worst case scenario is I turn trans.  Second worst case scenario is I make people in the bathroom very uncomfortable and angry at me because I clearly present as A Big Boy.  I dunno.  Anyway.  There’s nothing wrong with being trans.  It just sucks because society mostly treats them like shit.  Other than all the hate and discrimination and even criminalization I’m sure it’s a lovely experience. ALL IN ALL GOOD.  Trans kills two genders with one stone.  YOU’RE KINDA ONE BUT YOU’RE REALLY THE OTHER.  GREAT STUFF.  But Michael they’re not Kinda One They’re Really The Other.  THAT’S WHAT I SAID.  No they’re not Kinda the other one they’re the one that they are.  I THINK WE UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER.     
        Anyway.  I identify as Trans.  TRANSCENDENTAL.  YEAH.  Sure maybe sometimes I kind of feel like a man trapped inside a man’s body.  Wish I had some other man’s body!  It’d be more convenient for reaching things on high shelves!  OH WELL.  I like most things about my body.  I feel at home in my body 80%.  LIGHT BODY DYSMOROPHIA IS ALL IT IS.  Anyway.  When Republicans says Democrats want TRANS FOR EVERYBODY I guess that literally means they want to make all males females and all females males?  FOR WHAT?  WHY.  WHAT POSSIBLE USE WOULD THAT SERVE.  JUST A HUGE MIX-EM-UP?  EVERYONE’S REVERSED ON A CIVILIZATIONAL SCALE?  Why would that… who would that… IN WHAT WORLD…  Anyway.  I want TRAINS FOR EVERYBODY.  I used to like playing with Train Set when I was a kid.  I used to like riding train as a teenager.  I used to like TRAINING DAY as an adult.  I know you’ve heard of T-Pain but have you heard of T-Rain because that’s also a band named Train.  Then there’s T-Rex.  Which is also a band and King Of The Dinosaurs.  King Of The Dinosaurs.  That’s a good band name.  Especially if they made good music.  If they made really good music then it’d be a really good band name.  When asteroid hit all the dinosaurs defiantly were like Die?  No.  Watch how high I Soar.  Then they all died unfortunately.
        Last paragraph.  It’s gonna be 2030 in three and three quarter years.  What should we be doing then.  NOT AT WAR.  BE AT PEACE.  HAVE SOME FUN.  IN THE MIDDLE EAST.  That’s good.  I’m just concerned that for some people Having Fun means BOMBING HOSPITALS.  For me though it’s chillwave.  People at home and abroad listening to chillwave.  Why not.  I dunno.  I saw they’re making a movie with AI Val Kilmer.  Cause regular Val Kilmer is dead.  That sucks!  I don’t wanna see a computer act.  I COULD ACT BETTER THAN THAT.  Why would I watch an inferior product than myself.  I might as well look at myself in a mirror running lines!  I MIGHT AS WELL DO LIENS OFF A MIRROR at this point!  Might as well become a drug addict is what I’m trying to say!  Ride of The Valkilmers.  That a thing?  I dunno!  Val Kilmer was a snooze as Batman in the one movie he was Batman.  Every other actor was dialing it up to eleven and he was just playing it subdued and straight as far as I can remember.  WATCH THE MOVIE.  You’ll see my off the cuff half remembered remark checks out!  YES MICHAEL have you heard of the concept of a straight man.  NO.  NO I HAVEN’T.  Anyway.  He was okay.  But he wasn’t going nuts being Batman.  Well anyway that was an okay Batman movie.  Its one for the kids.  Some Batmen for the adult folks.  This one for the kids!  That’s all.  I’ll see ya later.

  • This Title Shows Don’t Tells

        Sure.  Hi!  I finished Schmidt’s Creek and now I started watching PORTLANDIA.  I like it!  I like it a lot!  I wish I lived in The Matrix but The Matrix was like Portlandia.  Wait no maybe I wish I lived in Portlandia but Portlandia was like The Matrix.  I forget.  I watched The Oscars this weekend.  I think they did an okay job.  They awarded people and films.  Everyone sat still for a few hours but sometimes got up and talked when necessary.  The best news of the week though is that one of the songs I’m playing for School Of Rock is supposed to be tuned half a step down but it turns out we’re gonna play it in standard tuning.  So I don’t need to tune my guitar back and forth each time we practice that song.  On the downside, though, now I don’t have an excuse to ever tune my guitar to Half A Step Down Standard Tuning, which is MY FAVORITE.  SO there’s plusses and minuses.  Is there an expression SO There’s Multiplications And Division Sighns because if there is I’ve never heard it!  It presumably applies to some conversations.  I had a good idea for a Math Function that doesn’t yet exist.  You guys know about Exclamation Mark, right?  Like 7!  Means Seven times six times five ETCETERA down to 1.  ANYWAY my new idea is 7? Where it’s the same thing but it’s PLUS instead of MULTIPLICATION.  7? Is 7 PLUS six PLUS five down to one.  Gonna pitch this to shark tank if possible.
      
    But Michael what possible use does that actually serve in math.  If it ever really came up in The Real World it’d already exist! YEAH PROBABLY. Then again Maybe if the function existed we’d start using it in the real world THEN.  One follows the other!  Shark Tank is called that because someone pitched someone a Shark Tank somewhere at some point and that’s the epitome of The Ultimate Good Pitch.  Hey you guys know sharks, right?  What If We Kept Shark In A Tank?  BRILLIANT THEN WE’D BE SAFE.  Anyway.  How many times per episode does Mark Cuban say Don’t fool around with me Despite what my name might suggest I’m no MARK.  And then does he also ever say Don’t fuck with me Despite what my name might suggest I’m actually not Cuban.  If Cuba Gooding Jr. married Mark Cuban, which, I know, is a long shot… HIS NAME MIGHT GO A LITTLE SOMETHING LIKE THIS… anyway.  Mark JR.  Anyway.  I think it’d be cool to name my kid my name.  Make A JR out of him.  I don’t think Jews do that though.  It’s blasphemous and against Judaism.  Oh well.  My name ALMOST worked out for me.  In some ways I came close to getting a lot out of my name.  I think my kid would have better luck than me.  Just needs that extra bit to get over the top!  Then again if my kid has my name that reflects back on me and my name and suddenly me and my name are back in the spotlight and not necessarily in a good way.   Suddenly I’m Michael Sr!  I don’t like that.  I don’t wanna be a SR.  That sounds awful.
       Oh well.  The seventeenth of the month.  That’s always notable.  Most of the time at least!  Seven Teeth.  How many Teeth is ENOUGH really.  If I lost two teeth I’d be okay.  If I lost three teeth I’d still be okay.  HOW MANY TEETH do I need.  I don’t know.  I remember in Elementary School, third grade or so, we made these little pillowy receptacles to store our baby teeth when we lose them I guess as a prelude for the tooth fairy to give us money or something.  But I don’t get it.  What kind of backwoods occult nonsense is that.  HEY KIDS WE’RE GONNA SAVE OUR BABY TEETH INDEFINITELY.  THIS IS STATE SPOONSERD EDUCATION.  GET TO WORK.  As a kid though it seemed a great class project.  HEY you know what the end product of this is right?  CASH MONEY!  So that’s good.  What’s the point of rewarding kids for losing their teeth.  It’s not like they’re gonna lose their next teeth any faster.  You’re not tangibly encouraging them to do Body Development Any Better monetarily IT WON’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.  It’s not gonna change anything!  And from another angle, it’s not like they went through anything so traumatic that you need to give them a treat in the form of money.  If anything, losing a tooth is fun.  Spend a week or two tonguing the loose tooth back and forth.  IT’S A TREAT I SAY.
        Cool.  Does anyone know what the tooth fairy is supposed to look like.  I know they cast The Rock as the tooth fairy in a movie but that can’t be canon, right?  Anyway.  Just some random fairy, I guess.  That’s what I’m seeing as I look it up online right now!  Anyway.  What does it mean when you lose teeth in a blog entry.  I dunno.  Also if you die in a blog entry that means you die in real life!  Oh no I’m scared.  The Rock named himself after watching The Sean Connery Movie (1996) and thinking this makes sense to me. Okay.  What else is up.  St. Patrick’s Day!  Be sure to celebrate all the people named Patrick you know and have known in your life!  I assume that’s what we’re supposed to do today.  DON’T MAKE MUCH SENSE but I don’t question The Irish And Their Traditions!  I dormed with a Patrick for a couple of months in 2008.  That’s the only Patrick I can think of.  Didn’t really interact with him much. But hey today is HIS day!  It’s Pat. The SNL sketch/movie that nobody likes.  Is that relevant?  It’s more relevant than ever I feel.  Huh.  The British reboot (concurrentoot?) of SNL is premiering this weekend!  I wanna see what the Hell that is.  I dunno if I’ll be able to see it!  OH WELL.  British people trying to be funny.  Man oh man.  Will they succeed?  It’s possible!  It’s possible they won’t though!  I can’t wait to see if I am able to see!
        Okay.  Lots of sketches about BREXIT I bet.  I don’t know anything about England since 2014.  Anyway.  WOW Brexit was 2020.  Turns out I’m A BIT more up-to-date than I think!  Anyway.  Referendum was in 2016.  IT’S A PROCESS.  They got Tina Feye hosting the first episode.  I assume she’ll say some shit like I CAN SEE IRELAND FROM MY HOUSE and everyone will go crazy.  What does IRE mean.  It means something.  It escapes me at the moment.  Intense anger or rage.  Ireland is THE LAND OF INTENSE ANGER, RAGE, OR WRATH.  I guess that checks out?  IT must!  Otherwise why would they etymology that!  WELL it beats Fireland.  The land that’s constantly on fire.  Wouldn’t wanna live there!  Hmm.  Hey would you like to go to Fire Island?  WHAT?  NO!  THAT SOUNDS DANGEROUS.  It’s a Long Island Island.  I thought Long Island was already Island.  It’s a bonus island!  It’s an extra island to the island! Jeez how many islands does one place need.  PLENTY!  I don’t like it.  What if Ice-T moved to Long Island to settle down.  That would make a lot of people re-think how they think about the world.  IT would make people who previously didn’t think about the world At All START thinking about the world!  Anyway. I guess that’s it.  There’ll be more later the next time I write!  See Ya’s!

  • Title! The Entry

        OK.  Great.  Time to talk at you.  Every entry I talk more and more and it seems you talk less and less.Well you’re talking the same amount.  ZERO.  But I become more acutely aware of it!  Each progressive entry I feel incrementally moreWHY ISN’T ANYONE ELSE SAYING ANYTHING.  I should use my imagination to conjure up what other people might say.  I dunno about that.  I have a hard enough time imagining WHAT I MIGHT SAY.  It’s tough!  Writing is tough.  LIFE is tough.  Whatever.   Almost done with Stranger Things.  I didn’t like it too much!  The reviews said it was like if Stephen Spielberg was mixed with GOD or something.  I just thought it was okay!  How come TV and Film reviews are WRONG.  I dunno.  They’re inherently an unhealthy practice in society.  Critics.  Stands to reason they’d produce bad takes!  Huh.  What’s so good about Stranger Things.  Every episode it’s the same thing.  Monsters no one cares about.  Some kids running around doing things but really DOING NOTHING.  An overall plot that feels like they’re making it up as they go along.  How come I’M allowed to critic things.  Cause I’m the exception that proves the rule!  That’s how I often feel!  Also, the title!?  Stranger Things.  STRANGER THAN WHAT?  WHAT THING.  What’s it even in reference to! 
       Hmm.  I can’t relate to these people.  It’s not the 1980’s.  Get out of here with that crap.  The show was alright.  It had its moments.  Huh.  I got the weekend coming up.  Better Things.  That’s a Kinks song.  I got more out of that three minute song than this five season show.  It’d be cool if they used that song to close out the series BUT I DOUBT IT because it already didn’t happen.  But it’s there if Weird Al wants it.  “Stranger Things,” but to the music of, “Better Things.”  How does the real song start.  Here’s wishing you the bluest sky/hoping something better comes tomorrow.  How can we Stranger Thingsify that.  I dunno.  I’m not writing lyrics now.  Website-mode!  Well the chorus isI Know Tomorrow You’ll Find Stranger Things that much is clear.  Anyway.  Unless I can think of an appropriate rhyme forI Know Tomorrow You’ll Find!  Ugh.  Maybe I’m qualified enough to write and record this song.  That doesn’t sound like me.  Either way Maybe Later Most Likely Not.  Anyway.  Most Likely Not.  Most Valuable Primate.   That was a movie where a monkey plays hockey. Aren’t humans primates.  By calling this monkey the Most Valuable Primate you’re presumably trying to call attention to the fact he’s different from humans and that he’s the best of the stranger species BUT in reality ALL OF US are primates and also he’s more valuable than Human Primates?  I dunno!  I never saw that movie!  He’s probably good for a chimp but not on the level as the humans!
        Is there a subgenre of film reviews where it’s based on films the author has yet to see?  Must be some pieces out there where that is the general case.  I saw AIR BUD 1 and I don’t remember him blowing the other kids out of the water.  HE was GOOD but he wasn’t THE BEST.  I guess because that would make the audience feel bad for the other kids playing.  How would YOU feel if you were a child and this dog was running circles around you on the basketball court.  Lots of tears I’m sure.  Anyway.  What’s my favorite movie starring an animal.  That’s not CGI.  IF IT COUNTS It might be Ace Venture II: When Nature Calls.  It doesn’t star animal, but there’s lots of recurring ones.  Anyway I’m on the fence on Ace Ventura II!  Haven’t seen it lately.  Can’t remember if I liked it or tolerated it or really liked it!  Watched it a bunch of times, though! Probably felt all those ways over the course of watching it different times.  Oh Cool.  Anyway.  Let’s See What’s A Funny Thing I Can Say.  Well what’s going on in the world today.  Not a lot of good things.  For the most part I think it’s dozens, no, hundreds, of really bad things happening.  Probably tens of thousands, or more.  That’s okay.  Lots of good stuff happens as well.  I’d tell you but you have to find out yourself.  That doesn’t sound accurate.  You don’t know the half of it.
       Do British people pronounce the sitcom alien Alf, “Half?”  Anyway.  Alf On A Shalf.  That’s how Alf is supposed to be pronounced.  Alf is essentially an anteater, right?  That’s No Alien!  That’s an anteater who’s a biped and can talk.  What else is up.  In middle school if you knew a girl with big nipples named An you call her An Teaters, right?  I don’t approve of that behavior for young boys.  Gotta wait until your older!  Takes a level of maturity until you can say things like that.  Okay.  What else is going on.  Anything I HAVE to talk about?   Is there anything ON MY MIND?  SURE.  ALL THE NEWS.  Read about it in your local reliable sources for news!  Doesn’t even need to be local!  LIVIN LA VIDA LOCAL.  Today is my Quarter Birthday.  Quick Somebody Get Me A Celebration!  Sing 25% of Happy Birthday.  I will make a fourth of a wish.  I dunno.  Wait a second.  Quarter Birthday.  Nine Months. … THIS IS THE ANNIVERSAY OF MY PARENTS FUCKING!  Not really.  I was born five weeks early.  That joke has PLOT HOLES if I’m the one telling it!  Anyway.  Did Courtney Love PLOT HOLE?  Maybe I dunno you’re gonna have to explain what plot hole means in that context!  Courtney Love would be a good Frankenstein’s Bridge.  Courtney… Love. that could be dialogue in there.  I guess she’s playing herself but also the monster Frankenstein made?  As the same person?  Well we just know her first name is Courtney.  And that she loves as a verb.  Oh.  Just a first name coincidence.
       Ok.  There was a movie called Nine Months.  I believe it was about how long it takes for the USPS to deliver a letter these days Am I Right!  Anyway.  How can storks deliver babies.  Baby weighs half a bowling ball.  Storks can’t carry that weight.  Only Beatles can Carry That Weight!  Therefore Beatles Deliver Babies.  What happens when the last Beatle dies off.  The New Beatles.  We’ll reboot The Beatles for this very purpose.  And The New Beatles will be qualified to deliver babies as well as sing and dance!  Go figure.  Anyway.  I started watching that Paul Wingsartney documentary last week.  It was pretty good!  Gonna tough to replace him.  Tough but necessary!  Anyway.  I dunno.  If they ever do reboot the Beatles you can bet they won’t involve me!  Not gonna ask for MY input or anything.  JUST BEAUSE I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FRANCHISE?  Doesn’t seem right!  I believe actor and former leader of SAG Fran Drescher privately calls herselfThe Fran-Chise to pump herself up all the time.  Great.  Whatever makes her happy.  They don’t reboot bands regularly.  Every now and then!  I dunno.  I’d rather they resurrect bands.  BRING.  BACK.  BEETHOVEN.  Beet Hoven or some variation of, “Hoven,” is a band name for someone who is an idiot.  Anyway.  That’s all.  See ya later!

  • One Title Away From Free Entry

        HEY I just thought of a funny band name.  Yep that’ll happen.  Well my work here on this Earth is done.  I started reading a book about Indie Rock from the late 90’s until now.  It’s interesting.  Me talking about it isn’t though.  Who cares what book I’m reading!  YOU’RE READING something at the moment.  That’s what matters right now!  I did my livestream of Blues Legends Songs (BageLS) last night.  Went pretty good.  Who cares.  OKAY I GET IT, I can say a thing from my life and then qualify it withWho Cares It Doesn’t Matter, Rinse and Repeat.  Tried watching The X-Files last night.  It’s interesting.  I DOUBT THAT.  Wasn’t there a scam thing calledThe Twitter Files a few years ago.  NOT ANYMORE.  Now it’s called The X-Filespatent pending.  Based on the bad reviews The Bride? got I kinda wanna see it.  It got Good Bad reviews.  Seems interesting.  Anyway.  I think the era of Mass Reviews ruined movies for Me and Probably Others.  When I was a kid we just SAW MOVIES.  And that was it.  And we left the movie thinkingWELL IT WAS OKAY.  I ASSUME EVERYONE DID THEIR BEST.  IT WAS FINE I GUESS.  Now we just assume every movie SUCKS because (1) critics say it does (2) social media parrots it back as well.  I think if Rotten Tomato and whatknot didn’t exist we’d just actually like every movie.  WHAT FUN!
       Got damn Critic-Industrial Complex.  Also if you don’t like this website-blog it’s because THE CRITICS GOT TO YOU.  The internet critics.  Anyway.  Sure I thought about the band nameThe Critics at some point in the past.  Somethings off about it though.  Sure I then pivoted to think aboutThe Criticals.  Or The Critical Something Or Others.  That’s even more off, though, I concluded!  Oh Well.  Isn’t that what Tarantino was gonna call his next movie for a while.  I don’t need that association!  If you have to associate it with SOMETHING let it be the cartoon The Critic.  But preferably associate it with nothing ideally.  Anyway.  Gotta write songs if you wanna have a band.  I haven’t written a song in years.  I’ve improvised 2,000 songs.  But I haven’t WRITTEN a song.  Even sayingImprovised is upselling it.  I just sort of vomit out words and music without thinking.  From my experience, improvisation is done with Thoughtfulness and Intent.  THAT’D BE A STEP FORWARD compared to what I usually do.  I dunno.  Some shongs are better than other shongs.  What else is up.  It’s always interesting trying to solo/improvise in the presence of teacher and/or fellow classmates.  Sometimes it’s just complete faulty glitching that would produce the responseOh So You Just Don’t Know How To Play Guitar And Are Picking At Random Notes.  But the other part of the time I DUNNO.  I wouldn’t know how to describe it!  It must be accomplishing SOME SORT OF THING musically.  But WHAT.
       
    WHAT INDEED.  Third paragraph.  When I was a teenager, I thought I was too cool for a lot of bands that it turns out were actually too cool for me!  Based on reading this book.  What a twist!  I should give a whole lot of these bands a second (first?) look!  It’ll never be the same.  I had one chance to listen to them as teenagers as music should be listened to and I blew it!  I dunno.  Maybe some bands can be listened to as adults.  Oh Okay Interesting.  I’ll think about that one.  WELL THIS ENTRY SUCKS.  Still got the Second Half to change course.  Well, stay on course.  It’s the same course as before.  From Bad –> Good.  One course of action!  Main band I’m thinking of being too cool for is Death Cab For Cutie.  WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT with that name.  WHAT’S WRONG with you.  Maybe I’m missing something.  Coming at it from the wrong angle.  But it seems like a bit much.  Seems a lot much!  But apparently I’m to give them a second chance if this book is to be trusted.  You can trust books.  Look at them printed word.  Contrast that with looking at screen.  Gotta trust SOMETHING.  Anyway it serves as a cautionary tale that you gotta pick the right band name.  Maybe that’s THE POINT.  DON’T DO WHAT WE DID—DCFC.  Pick Better Band Name.  Turns out it matters!  Is that possible?
       I AM THE ULTIMATE ARBITRATOR.  I was raised in the era of Rotten Tomatoes and Pitchfork!  That’s how we all feel!  Maybe.  Maybe not.  Anyway.  What is a Death Cab. IF I know anything about this band it’s a reference to a movie from the 1940’s.  Oh it comes from the title of a 1967 song.  Okay.  The important thing is I made an uneducated guess.  I’m TRYING here!  Well anyway.  What else is up.  I was watching some Kevin Smith movies lately.  They call the character he plays Silent Bob and we’re supposed to lose our shit if he ever speaks but he talks literally every movie he shows up.  At least once.  It’s not that rare!  I DUNNO.  Maybe it’s just me.  Maybe in the Askewneverse they recognize just because he’s Silent Bob he’s still allowed to talk every now and then, and when he talks, they’re likeOkay Great He’s Talking That’s Fine He’ll Do That Now And Then.  That’s how it should be!  What with the frequency he actually talks!  It’s NOT a Once In A Lifetime thing!  Anyway.  I took an uber last night that was just a taxi.  It was a straight up yellow taxi.  That’s WRONG.  One thing is different than the other.  Yellow Taxi gotta pick sides!  Either do one or the other, I think!  What do I know.  So what makes a cab a DEATH cab. Is it the cab you’re going to die in?  I guess.
       Life is a big Death Cab?  Sure.  Life is a big Cash Cab!  Sure!  They ask you questions for cash prizes.  That’s more accurate!  IMO.  ESKIMO.   Eskimo Kisses.  Why do Eskimo kiss that way.  Is touching noses as close as they can get because they’re all bundled up.  Cause they live in the tundra?  Gonna have to look into that one.  I think historically white Americans respect Inuits slightly more than other Native Tribes who they famously uniformly disrespect and it’s becauseOh Shit You LIVE out there?  We honestly probably couldn’t do that. Ya know what Well Done.  Probably!  Anyway.  I think I used to eskimo kiss my Mom when she tucked me in.  That was the default for some reason.  That’s as far as I got with my Mom!  SO that’s good.  I don’t know.  Well anyway this entry sucked.  Today I might stay up late tonight.  Take the Upper I’m on these days when I usually take my nighttime medicine.  WHY?  WHAT WILL I ACCOMPLISH?  I dunno.  Try to write some lyrics.  Maybe try to work on learning TEXAS FLOOD.  Just have some fun generally in the wee hours of the night.  Anyway.  See ya later.

  • This Must Be Funny In A Way I Don’t Get

        Okay.  Hey!  How was everyone’s Midweek.  I think I did somethings productive.  I watched TV I ACTUALLY LIKED.  Programs I considered 6’s or 7’s instead of 3’s or 4’s.  Oh no I just gave away someone’s pin number.  6734.  That’s a good pin number.  Try it out next time!  Anyway I get ubers a lot and I pay attention to the license plate for knowing which car to get into and there’s a lot of times I’m like this license plate is pretty familiar. PROBABLY a character or two off from the one I’m remembering but HEY MAYBE IT REALLY IS A REPEAT UBERER.  I live in the same area.  Uber Drivers must stick to the same area.  Why wouldn’t I be seeing repeat uber drivers.  I MEAN, THEY’RE REAL PEOPLE.  They’re not just Generic Made Up NPC to carry me from Hither To Tither.  I dunno.  In my mind having a re-peat uber driver that I had a month or two ago would be the coincidence to end all coincidences.  Why would it end all other coincidences.  I dunno.  I guess it wouldn’t.  Other coincidences would continue to happen!  Let’s move on!  My standard practice is to give every driver a tip while I’m still in the taxi and then rate them later when we’re done.  Cause they definitely deserve a tip but do they deserve five stars???  We’ll see once we get there!  So far I think I’ve given everyone five stars.  But ya never know!
         March!  Fifth!  What does that mean.  Practically Nothing!  Cool.  Anyway.  I figured out a part of how to write new songs.  Use different guitar tones!  Spoiler alert!  Make my guitar sound different!  Utilize Digital 8 Track!  I don’t like the way those myriads of guitar mods there sound ON THEIR OWN.  When I plug the guitar into it directly.  They give dozens of options.  Sound dumb and clunky and abrasive kinda.  But when those guitars are INDIVIDUAL parts of songs HEY THEY KINDA MAKE SENSE.  When it’s not the only thing you’re focusing on THEY’RE OKAY.  And they lead to playing guitar differently to Accommodate Sounding Different than STANDARD NEUTRAL AVERAGE guitar tone!  Anyway.  We’ll see when I can get around to it.  Can’t do it in the morning.  I’m sleeping.  Can’t do it in the afternoon.  I’m taking walks!  Can’t do it in the evening.  I’m tired!  Can’t do it at night!  I’m sleeping!  I’ll figure something out.  I always do.  That’s not true I RARELY figure things out!  Depends on what we’re talking about and To What Level figuring things out we’re talkin’.  I could figure something out at about a four out of ten!  That’s not bad!  PRACTICALLY FIVE.  Five is a good number.  It reminds me of the fifth dimension which surprisingly few people know about!  I’d like to know more about it.  It’s like CLOUDS right.  CLOUDS are the fifth dimension off the top of my head. 
        Okay.  Hmm.  Tried changing a string on my bass guitar and the replacement one broke while trying to attach it.  I’m becoming less and less proficient at basic tasks as I get older!  What does that mean.  Just means I’m some sort of Developing Invalid, that’s all!  Oh okay good.  I can do the basics.  As time goes on anything that’s not THE BASICS I forget how to do!  WHO CARES.  THE BASICS are what’s important.  Also as time goes on What Constitutes The Basics as a group gets smaller.  Hmm.  It’s a good LIFE COMPROMISE.  Some people go on about their lives FORGETTING THE BASICS.  Not me though, that’ll never be me!  Anyway.  Gotta De-odorize tonight again.  That’s what Tyler Durden said.  Either because of his soap business and also as a pun for instigating Societal Disorder.  Wait I confused, “Odor,” and, “Order,” my bad.  Tyler Durden is a pretty good name.  Gotta hand it to Chuck Palhouneck.  I’m just gonna guess that’s his last name.  No use looking it up.  If he doesn’t care to give his Narrator a name until the end of the movie in Fight Club I DON’T CARE TO GIVE HIM A NAME.  No Spoilers.  It’s been thirty years.  I think the ending is Public Domain by now.  I dunno.  My interpretation of Fight Club is that we should fight this club!  Don’t fight INTRA club.  Fight EXTRA club.  Fight the club in this movie.  Maybe fight all clubs, I dunno!
        
    Okay.  Anyway.  One club I Like is Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.  They got Hearts. They got Clubs.  Even got Lucy In The Sky With DIAMONDS for one of the songs.  WHERE IS SPADES THOUGH.  It’s a CARD COUNTING MYSTERY.  Is Sargent Pepper serving like a Colonel Parker type role to the Lonely Hearts Club Band.  I don’t think so.  But that would make sense.  Anyway.  Should I see The Bride! this weekend?  I wonder what happens in it.  Apparently they really, “Go For It!”  What is IT that they went for!  How did GOING manifest!  What is FOR!  I don’t know the answers to these questions without seeing the movie!  I don’t even understand the questions I have without seeing the movie!  Gotta see the movie to understand my questions about the movie!  Anyway.  I don’t know any place on Earth that would certify a marriage between Frankensteins.  This, “Bride,” is a bride in name only.  Certainly not legally standing!  What do I know about Every Place On Earth.  I haven’t done that research.  There might be plenty of places on Earth willing to pronounce weddings between Frankensteins for the right price!  Hmm.  The right price is FOR LOVE.  Because THEY’RE IN LOVE.  Oh Okay Good.  Anyway.  I should know what women are all about.  Thus I should watch the movie about Mrs. Frankenstein.  That way I’ll know WOMEN.
       Makes sense.  How can I write songs that are FULL.  I have recorded decent songs but they’re usually INCOMPLETE.  Oh okay good.  I can play Bad Bass Guitar now though!  Still has 75% strings!  And half the time those strings produce real notes!  ANYWAY.  What else is up.  I can’t relate to Frankenstein’s Monster because I don’t have that kind of Ideal Body that someone would consciously try to put together whether it be a Dr. Frankenstein or a God.  My body is a mistake of nature.   Whereas Frankenstein is some sort of adonis.  I MAY HAVE MISSED THE POINT OF FRANKENSTEIN.  Or misunderstood parts of it at least.  I got the overall idea.  Sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself.  Anyway.  I don’t get Young Frankenstein.  Wasn’t the original Frankenstein already pretty young?  Lemme LTURQ.  YEP.  HE WAS.  He was in his 20’s the entire time!  Hmm.  Young Frankenstein only makes sense if you’re imagining some guy talking down to Gene Wilder calling him Young Frankenstein condescendingly not even thinking about the age of the other, original Frankenstein.  Cause Frankenstein was even younger than Young Frankenstein was!  Anyway.  I made a good point.  This entry should be added to The Library Of Congress.  I dunno.  I don’t want anything to do with Congress these days.  PATHETIC.  Anyway that’s it.  See ya!

  • The Title No One Cares About

        Sure!  How’s everyone doing.  I was up all night last night.  Can’t pinpoint why!  Just laying in bed, unable to fall asleep. I was preoccupied with the same ol’ stuff.  Nothing out of the ordinary.  What’s the antonym of ordinary.  Oh I know Stranger Things.  Anyway I got five hours of sleep anyway from 6:30-11:30 so I WIN in the end.  I got enough sleep AND I got to lay in bed and think by myself.  I WIN.  I always wanted to write a movie called I Win.  And it’s about a guy who wins the lottery.  Or wants to win the lottery.  That’s better.  Who cares about a guy winning the lottery.  UNRELATABLE!  This movie is about a guy who WANTS to win the lottery and he does everything he possibly can in his power over the course of the movie to win the lottery.  Does he win the lottery at the end?  I dunno I never wrote the movie yet!  My tendency is to tell the truth in titles though.  Tendons remind me of Scrubs. I watched the new Scrubs!  That’s comfort food for me.  I never particularly liked scrubs but I watched it while dorming in college which I DID like so it reminds me of sense memories I do appreciate.  And I APPRECIATE they’re a Feel Good show.  I like feeling good!  I don’t mind what they’re putting out there!  I also like the new Tracy Morgan/Daniel Radcliffe show!  I think it’s funny they chose the name Reggie for the title because that could be a black name OR a British name!  VERY Clever! 
         Anyway.  Wore deodorant last night for the first time in 8-10 years!  Possibly put on 8-10x as much as I needed!  Still smell too much of it on me!  But it’s good!  It’s a good smell!  I think I noticed people looking at me different at Music Group Practice.  Hmm this guy put on de-odorant what’s his motive I wonder what he’s up to.  Also I PROJECT my own thoughts and feelings onto the people around me SO WHAT YOU DO IT TOO.  That sentence is an example of itself.  A little bit.  Anyway.  We gotta do a Zoom Show next week for Music Classe.  I think it’ll go pretty shittily!  But we’ll be okay.  I’ll be okay.  I keep telling myself I’ll start practicing every day.  I tell myself I’ll practice the School Of Rock songs every day, I tell myself I’ll start working on new songs of my own every day… SO FAR ALL TALK. I dunno!  I can turn things around at some point!  POINT.  WHAT AN INTERESTING WORD.  Made up of letters.  Made up of sounds.  Itmeans something.  It took me time to say it.  I kind of regret bringing it up in the first place at this point to be honest!  There it is again.  POINT.  I dunno.  We got a new guitar player!  An older black man who used to play in church as a kid.  No I’m not talking about the Award Winning Film Sinners I’m talking about our new guitar player.  He just watched today though.  I haven’t heard him play!  Dunno if he’s Great or just merely Wonderful.  I dunno.
        
    I assume he’s good.  He had a professional looking guitar case.  HEY I’m in the third paragraph.  WHAT FROM MY LIFE SHOULD I DRAW UPON TO TALK ABOUT NOW.  I wanna start writing songs!  Instead of just improvising bullshit.  Writing songs will help me in life.  It will help me (1) Make sense of my life (2) Make sense of your life (3) Feel Good Like Scrubs (4) Now That I Think About It Not Everyone’s Named Reggie.  What’s-his-name is a taste maker.  Zac Efron.  Ethan Embry.  Dr. Scrubs.  You know who I’m trying to come up with.  Mr. Gardenstate himself.  I know his name 99% of the time!  ZACH BRAFF.  He’s a music gatekeeper!  I gotta write songs DR. SCRUBS would like!  Ok what do I know about Zach Braff. Loves wearing scrubs.  Ugh.  If he didn’t why’d he name It All after them.  I dunno.  Success of MTV’s Cribs?  Scrubs sounds like someone trying to say Cribs but having trouble!  DOES IT THOUGH.  I don’t think I ever saw an episode of Cribs. I’m sorry if I just value my time more than you value yours!  Only the best of the best entertainment for me to pre-occupy myself with!  IN FACT I don’t even consider what I entertain myself withentertainment.  That’s too lowbrow a connotation!  What I spend my time on is BEYOND Entertainment!  Anyway.  WERE THERE episodes of Cribs that were depressing.  Was that 15% of the episodes.  Down-on-their luck people who are likeYeah This Isn’t The Greatest Right Now But This Is What I Got.
       
    Anyway.  I Don’t Know!  Right now this is what I got.  Fourth paragraph.  What was I talking about just now.  WHY THE SAME THINGS I ALWAYS TALK ABOUT.  Then why isn’t it easier to remember?  Anyway.  Depressing Cribs is essentially what Fall & Rise Of Reggie Dinkins is!  Oh okay good.  I like comedy.  Anyway.  I saw Screen VII this weekend.  It was okay!  Did it change my life?  No.  WAS IT OKAY?  Yes.  Did it change my life?  No.  But was it OKAY?  Yes.  Why would it change my life.  SCREAM I and II changed my life!  Growing up, you think these characters are your friends!  Wow, I have friends?  Friends = life changer round these parts.  Anyway there were some twists and turns in Screep VII but I liked the movie most when it was doing nothing.  Just in quiet little moments.  When the movie was just BEING/EXISTING/HAVING A SEC TO ITSELF.  I don’t believe in what I was just saying.  I said it errantly.  You could apply that to a lot.  Anyway I tried watching Gardenstate probably five times.  What the fuck is it about.  Uhh DUH.  It’s about how New Jersey is THE GARDENSTATE.  A STATE IN THE STATE OF GARDEN.  I WANNA SEE THAT MOVIE.  Oh I knowGardens Of The Galaxy.  What The Hell.  I don’t think I’ll be trying to watch Gardenstate again!   Been burned… four many times!
        Maybe I’m just bitter he’s visiting New Jersey and not New York.  A little bit jealous perhaps!  We need to get our tourism numbers up.  Every person counts.  Well not every person.  But a vast majority of people count.  What are some other words I can say to fill up this paragraph.  Dr. A-Neg.  That’s what Mr.-E, the con man who teaches men how to pick up women on TV in the early 2000’s, calls himself now, as an anagram of garden.  Why does he want his name to be a secret anagram.  For, ”Garden.”  BECAUSE HE’S INTO IT THAT’S WHY. Scary Movie Six looks Not Great But I Wanna See It!  I never loved any of The Scary Movies but I wanna see it for Nostalgia.  I HAVE NOSTALGIA FOR THINGS I NEVER LIKED.  Just like Scrubs.  It reminds me of TIMES I LIKED.  I didn’t like THE THING.  But I liked THE TIME THE THING REMINDS ME OF.  Scary Movie was okay.  Everything’s Okay.  What was the last thing I was talking about that was worthwhile.  Huh.  I really don’t remember.  I was talking about The Old Man And The Sea a month or two ago.  THAT’S A GOOD BOOK.  THUS WORTHWILE SUBJECT.  Sea will be rising the next few decades/centuries/millennia thanks to global warming.  Get ready!  It’s coming!  I feel like millennials are the best generation for an overlooked reason and it’s because IT’S THE MOST IMPORATNT.  We came along once in A THOUSAND YEARS SUCKER.  Any generation their mama’s can call GREAT or X OR Z OR A.  WE ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISHED SOMETHING.  WE DID THE MILLENIUM.  US.  We gotta own it up more I think!  Anyway that’s it.  See ya later.
