GOOGLE IS WATCHING YOU!

This is a google street level image of my car. Parked in front of my house. Weird. It's very big brother. I feel a little alienated by google. Creepy.

In memory of Charon...

Are you Jew?

I gave "Are you Jew?" its' first tasting today. I put a little bit of it in a cup, and swirled it around a bit. It smelled okay. No floaties. Excellent. I took a sip it was a lot sweeter than I imagined it would be, and it was carbonated! Huh? Wine isn't supposed to be carbonated. I checked online for remedies to de-fizz wine. One clever method was to siphon it through a vacuum to remove the carbonation. Very cool, but not too practical for me. A simpler method is to literally stir the crud out of it, which is what I chose to do. When I stirred it all the bubbles came to the top and gave my wine a nice head to it. It looked like beer. I have to stir it now every day for about a week or so. I get to bottle it in about two months in some really cool bottles I got from Ikea.

So many to choose from

I've been listening to the Girl from Ipanema a lot lately. I'm not sure why. Anyhow, I've come across many different versions of the song.

Vienna boys choir... strange.

Kompressor's Version - Kompressor is a side project of sorts of Drew from Toothpaste for dinner. I prefer his work on his webcomic.



On Stylophone... Hmmm...


Disco version:


And of course, The girl from ipanema... Goes to iceland. ?



Humming urban stereo also does a version. Ask jarrett about humming urban stereo.

Local Band Names

I was flipping through a "Ogden Street" pamphlet and saw an advert for mojos listing their upcoming shows. I'm not sure if the organizers did this on purpose, but these are the orders of the bands listed.

Opelia, I am The, Rise of Athena [Nice to meet you, athena?]

Shark that Got Her Hands, Versus, Swans of Never [My money's on Shark...]

Simplify, generation why [no thanks]

And Embers Rise, Your Embrace, From Aphney [I wonder where Aphney is...]

It makes me wonder if they did this on purpose...

First

Hey, I'm starting a blog. I plan on posting things up here. Yup.
