1) being forced to move due to landlord bullying subsequently led me to find the holy grail of shared housing in san francisco - and my rent is $200 cheaper!



2) new roommate is a collectro of sorts, has an amazing collection of early mr. potatohead toys that were discontinued on display in our dining room



3) current roommate and friend will be moving to the same neighborhood, so excited.

4) finally got a new phone that doesn't weigh a ton

5) found out that a townes van zandt documentary is coming to theatres soon, so excited!

    1. Homeless beat to death.

    2. In the last 3 days I've promised 4 girls i was gonna take them on dates /get serious-ish. I have no idea what im thinking. Its like im BEGGING for strings attached.

    3. None of these girls is my DREAM GIRL, who is, surprise, taken.

    4. Too lazy to make new beats. Im pathetic.

    5. Flat tire on my car.

    Not too much to complain about.

    1.NYC[/b]- This is basically one of those comfy throw pillows with the words "no-brainer" embroidered on it. My return to the place I will always call home no matter where I'm livin. Spinnin rekkids at "Breakface", then sittin in with Otis & the gang for a funky live set. Maybe head off to Rubulad to spin some more (SmallChange? Cool?). It'll just be great to see soooo many good friends again: RAJ!!, S***e, my Cuban Kitty Cat, Shi Yan Ming, BKLYN Shaolin posse, Cosmo Baker, etc etc.. Then crossover to my home turf of NJ to get down with my old school fam. Rock karaoke spots, drink ourselves blind, laugh till we puke, act a motherfuckin fool! For serious though... would be awesome to meet as many Strut folk as possible. Come out to the Breakface & make yerselves seen. SEEN?



    2.Women[/b] - Ahh, yes, the black curtain of "all chicks hate my guts" has lifted once again in a huge celebration of "we love you baby, welcome back" type proportions. I'd like to thank myspace, Tom Leykis and ladies comin to their fuckin senses for the wonderful, wonderful outpouring of emotion and removal of clothing. These past few months have been lovely. Keep it comin!!



    3.hidden-strength.com[/b] - Coming soon to make your lives worth livin again.



    4.Stooges: Fun House[/b] - Perfectly realized rock & roll savagery and punk template. It NEVER gets old...



    5.NYC[/b] - Oh wait, I said that already..... Still though.







    three strikes. Yer OUT![/b]



    1.Hung over[/b]



    2.Car[/b] - Needs $200. repair. Grrr...



    3.Howard Stern[/b] - No longer part of my life till I get Sirius about things.





    BIZ MARKIE wins!!

    1. My wife's shoulder is getting better since her surgery.

    2. I've had a productive semester break (two new papers submitted and another to go).


    3. I finally got "broadband" (I was the last of the "modem-hicans").

    4. I was asked to be an ad hoc reviewer (of paper submissions) at a major management journal (good for the curriculum vitae-related).

    5. I finally got my 2-tier keyboard mount that I ordered from Interstate Music (Triton & ASR-10-related).

    AH SHIT!!!

    1. A colleague and I had a paper desk-rejected at a journal earlier this morning (submit it to another journal-related).

    2. I'm catching cabin fever (homebound, caring for wifey-related).

    3. I'm serving on a university committee that is time-consuming (Yuck!!!).

    4. Some new data I'm analyzing does not fit their "presumed" factor structure (paper submission hold-up-related).

    5. Milwaukee is even more depressing in Winter (cold & boring-related).

    Peace,

    Big Stacks from Kakalak
