A little bit of everything, colored my own way. |
THE PROMPT: "Anything goes." Good evening faithful readers! Not even a week into the "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" , and here we our with out first "open prompt". Yikes! Best wishes to judge 30DBC Creator/Founder with everything he's got going on now, while trying to manage this contest. This is quite a fitting prompt for this here space on the interwebs, as pretty much anything goes around here anyway. It's with great pleasure that I allow tonight to be EXTENDED LINKOMANIA!! MUSICAL BREAK!! Once this site gets back up and running, here's a great way to kill a lot of minutes... an entire Radiohead concert from 1995. http://www.ateaseweb.com/2012/01/03/listen-radiohead-live-at-lowlands-1995/ VITAL STATS PLUS!! Yup, I'm watching the Sabres game from the comfort of my living room (hence, the tv emoticon since we still don't have a damn hockey emoticon!!)...and some of you (who might want to) are not, or have made other plans. I've said many times how much I love having DirecTv. Time Warner, the cable company in our area, has removed MSG (the home of the Sabres, Rangers, Islanders, Devils, Knicks, and many college teams) from their line-up in a bitter squabble over money and channels by two large corporations. Horseshit, I say...you corporations aren't suffering yet. But the fans of the teams you show are, and will gain their retribution eventually by switching their tv services so they don't have to go out of their way to watch their favorite teams. http://www.wivb.com/dpp/sports/sabres_and_nhl/ag-to-get-involved-in-msg-time-war... From the "Unintentionally Hilarious Inappropriate Comments At Work" file, this exchange between my boss and I, as she was pushing a cart of boxes: My boss: "I don't wanna hit that box." Me: "You know you wanna hit that." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9mmfLLMltg&feature=related Guess you had to be there. She couldn't look at me for almost an hour without chuckling or yelling at me to stop chuckling. The NHL has scrapped their realignment plans because their players' association doesn't like it. There's gonna be a lot of angry teams next year if this doesn't get worked out soon, and I get the feeling it won't be. http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/7434057/nhl-delays-realignment-plan-modified-p... This might be some sort of obscure record, but it's the second day in a row that we have someone caught in a semi-state of nudity molesting artwork. http://msn.foxsports.com/other/story/Pro-skateboarder-Jereme-Rogers-reportedly-a... Any guesses as to how well this is gonna go over? They're coming to Buffalo in March. I'm intrigued, but not that much after what I read in Rolling Stone magazine over the summer about the lead guitarist. http://music.msn.com/music/article.aspx?news=693814 I'll leave you with the top 5 recommendations YouTube has for me tonight...a safe if not solid list... Soul Coughing, "Soundtrack To Mary (live)" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1hYMCfEsrw Buck 65 w/Gord Downie "(untitled live new song)" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwLDJHlepaM Modest Mouse, "Little Motel" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umSroVWRvpU&feature=g-vrec&context=G2fc380cRVAAAA... Third Eye Blind, "Wounded" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztqdMgJkXGk Radiohead, "Supercollider" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11ITxvYk-DU And Day 6 is almost in the books...that should kill a good hour or so if you're so inclined. I'm gonna wait out the rest of this Sabres game and try to get to bed at a decent hour. Peace and love to all of you...GOODNIGHT NOW!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEnLNWoln1c |
