Xmas Break.

A few nights ago, i went out to a bar with some friends from HS to this bar in Silverlake. If you have never been, its hipster central. Multiple people walking around with nice cameras, taking pictures, and wearing way too much American Apparel. (This is funny cause i got a really nice camera for Xmas).

Anyway, as i was ordering a drink, i saw this amazing advertisement up on the wall. It is amazing

Beyonce

Ive seen this commercial on TV many times before, and it pisses me off so much. It is SO strange when she looks sideways and keeps dancing and talks to the camera. I dont know why, but it just seems so strange.

This commercial was done by Deutsch for anyone thats in advertising

Sunday, December 2, 2007

Last night at about 2am, as i was staring into a basket of french fries i hadnt touched, i launched into a philosophical argument about the people of San Francisco, and it their so called "non-interest" in conforming to social trends is in fact, a trend in itself. Obviously it is, and i was the victor in the argument, but more importantly it led into an argument about pants which is way more important

I think i am getting too old to wear shorts anymore. It's sad. I remember when it was acceptable to wear shorts to dinner, work, or any social gathering. Now i feel like i have to wear shorts all the time. Of course this doesnt including lounging on weekends or going swimming. But still, it sucks that i have to be an adult. i miss wearing shorts all the time

Hair

I just got my haircut. It's shorter now than it has been in probably 7 years. There was a moment when the lady was combing my hair that she combed it exactly how my dad does, and it was horribly scary how much i looked like him.

As i stared at myself in the mirror i had this realization that i am getting older quicker than i ever imagined possible.

I realized that i am exactly where i wanted to be in life 5 years ago. Good job, good friends, and not married.......

Now i begin to wonder if my priorities have some how become obscured. I wonder if i should be moving down a different path instead.

And then i turn on Halo and call myself a bitch for getting all sentimental

Update

Things have been crazy as of late. Still working on this huge pitch at work. It has kept me busy on weekends and pretty lethargic about doing much on weekends. I did go our on Halloween, and rocked my Yacht Rock Kenny Loggins outfit:



Ive also been playing video games a lot as of late. Halo 3 and Guitar Hero 3 have introduced me to the joys of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

I also setup that i will be going to Kawaii for 12 days over X-Mas break with Sewards and Megan. Sewards' grandma has a time share that we get to use for free.

And lastly, i forgot to mention, that ever Wednesday a huge crew of people come over to play the drinking game Nichola and I created for when we watch Kid Nation



rules:
  1. Drink when a kid cries
  2. Drink when the "gold star" is mentioned
  3. Drink when a kid does something racially stereotypical (asian plays piano, black kid wins an athletic competition)
  4. Pick a team, drink when your team does well
This is enough to get everyone pretty wasted. I suggest you try it

Classic

Mckean is in town for a couple days. If you dont know him, he is professionally good looking. A male model that actually.....like.......makes a lot of money at it. Anyway Mannon, McKean, Elloitt, Santos and i are all out at this mexican bar/restaurant and Mckean starts talking to this gangstar black dude, who starts going on about how he started the first rap show on the radio in Las Vegas years ago, and all this hip hop stuff hes done in the city.

McKeans whole family is from Vegas, and they start chatting about how the guy works in radio, and McKean goes

"So by any chance do you know Mike Schemmel"

the guy says he doesnt know

"Oh cause thats my grandfather, he was the first pediatrician in Vegas, thought i would throw it out there."

so classic. the guy is talking about how hes a gangster and Mckean asks if he knows a pediatrician.

Jaywalker

I got a jaywalking ticket. How stupid is that? They still give those out? I felt like such a douche.

I set up my iPhone to send all pictures i take on it automatically to my flickr account. Expect lots of pictures of feet i take while bored on the shitter.

How do you know when you need a new toothbrush? While taking a shower last night i realized i think ive had the same toothbrush for over a year. It still works the same, so i dunno if i need to switch it or not.

Office

Just example of what goes on when we get super busy during car launches. Piek is a art director, and he always works super long hours. These are at about 8:15 at night. Oh yea i took these on my brand new iPhone....AWESOME

Rihanna

Never has one women so tarnished an object for me as Rihanna




I can't stop humming that song every time someone says umbrella. Also if you read the lyrics it's about two girls being friends through thick and thin, and we know how unselfish and giving women are towards each other (smarmy comment)

Catching Up

Work has been super busy lately. Im working on a top secret project, details if things happen as planned.

We got a new 57" tv in my apartment. I have now become an "HD Nazi". I refuse to watch anything that is not on an HD channel.

The down side is that i get stuck watching shitty stuff when nothing is on. I watched a 30 minute acoustic set by the lead singer of the Cranberries today. It was pretty sad.

We dont have air-conditioning, and i have this deal that has been going on for a few years where i refuse to buy a fan/air conditioning. I am doing my best to "beat the heat". It got way too unbearable yesterday, so i put a huge piece of ice in front of a fan and sat in front of it. Once the ice melted i used some frozen poultry my roomate had in the freezer. it made me hungry for chicken nuggets.

Thats about it. Ummmmm i got a members only jacket (thanks elliott)




Also this new Geico Ad from the Martin Agency is amazing

Random Shenanigans

This video is amazing



I went camping for work last weekend. I was the only one who puked on the trip. sometimes i can be a mess

Doug, Elliott, Frodo, and i booked a cruise to Mexico for October. Debauchery is sure to take place.

Sometimes i forget how lucky i am to live by the ocean. I think if i lived in one of the shitty states like New Mexico or something, it would be impossible to tell which direction was north, south, east, or west.

My mom told me to make sure i killed spiders before flushing them down the toilet, because they can crawl back out. For some reason it didnt dawn on me until after i hung up with her how ridiculous that statement really was

Cell Phone

If i get a phone number from the east coast, will my anytime minutes start 3 hours earlier?

Also i want to start a fund to give old bluetooth ear pieces to schizophrenic people so it looks like they are actually talking to someone besides themselves

E3

The head of our department scored 2 passes for E3. For people that are not as dorky as me, it is the annual video game convention. Starting this year they made it super secretive, and dont really invite anyone. Our department head took the head technologist guy at ork, and when they got back, he gave me his pass. I left work and showed up at the location.

It was at an unmarked hanger at Santa Monica Airport. I got to play a bunch of games that wont be released for months. I got to play Guitar Hero 3, Mario Galaxy, Call of Duty 4, and play with all the new Wii toys. Here i am rocking out while playing Sabotage on Guitar Hero 3. I played on hard, and did pretty well on my first try.

Crank Call Kid pt.2

I cant really describe this conversation we had tonight, so ill just post it for you to listen to.

Key facts-

They didnt block their number, and the number traced back to "Without a Trace Women's Ministry" when i googled it.

I dont think the kid knows me

I think that they are trying to get ahold of someone else



Creepy Kid

So this 13 year old kid has been crank calling me. He called me for the first time last night, and when i answered, he asked me if i remembered the girls we tag teamed in college.

He then went on to say that he has a Korean friend from Oxford that he wants to hook me up with that has a flat chest but a nice huge ass. We keep talking, he asks if i have a girlfriend, and then he abruptly hangs up.

He then call back later and asks for my myspace page. I told him i want his first, and after he thinks about it for a bit, he says he will call me back the tomorrow (today) and give it to me.

So today i turn my phone on late in the afternoon and i receive this voicemail. (Click Play to listen)




Im starting to get freaked out. What should i do?

Chris Benoit

When Chris Benoit was strangling his wife, did she try to tap out?

Derren Brown

This guy is this British David Blaine type, but he is way better. This video is insane. He also has videos where he makes people color blind, makes them forget where they're going, and makes them think words in their heads that he already knows

Kwik-E-Mart

Nick and i went to the 7-11 that they converted into a Kwik-E-Mart in LA. It was pretty amazing. Some gangster dude was laughing and pointed at some random indian dude working and said "Dude they even have Apu!"

I felt kinda bad for the guy.

God's bedpan......San Francisco

Anthony, Ernesto and i went to San Francisco. It was an interesting trip.

Thursday - Got to Cole's house where we were staying. Proceeded to drink 40's and listen to Chaka Khan.
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Went to some dive bar. Cole told me that the answer i was looking for lay within myself. Had to take shots to get over the gayness of the moment that had just occurred.

Friday - Woke up at noon. Went to the modern art museum. Saw some sweet Warhol and Lichtenstein shit. I spelled Lichtenstein right on my first try. I saw a bunch of naked sculptures, and commented to Anthony that i think i could pull off an exhibit called "man masturbating and crying while looking at a Nordstroms catalog". Saw this dude, had to give him change.

Night time, met up with my good friend Bloomy from high school. Bloomy asked her what her favorite gummi bear color was. She had on a North Face sweater and had no morals. Bloomy disappeared for the night.

Saturday - Went to Haight-Ashbury area. Helped me remember why i hate hippies, and their bandana wearing dogs. No, i don't give a shit that you play the tamborine, you're not getting a nickel. Drove out to Walnut Creek for an all out assault on Margo and Meghans lives. To a party bus with a shit load of people we didnt know to a club that i allowed to keep my credit car forever.
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
I made Margo cry on her birthday, and made some guy want to fight me. Anthony puked on some guy that was sleeping, and spilled Vodka on the couch to mask the smell. I ended up finger blasting some chick while Ernesto laid right next to me.

Sunday - Drive back to LA. Except dont make it cause my tire goes flat while going 90 on the freeway.
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
We are stuck in the middle of nowhere without anything except our good looks and a guitar stand i found in my trunk. We pop on the spare, make it to the next gas stop, and eventually get fixed up. Remind me to never stop playing R Kelly in my car again, i think it is bad luck that led to the tire incident.

Roger Waters

I went to see Roger Waters last night at the Hollywood Bowl with my mom. He was really good. It is great to see the 70's acts before they disappear forever. 2 interesting things i saw last night

Old Dudes grabbing butts- I always get stuck sitting next to some old dude who still really loves his gf/fiance/wife/hooker. That's cute and all, don't get me wrong. But when i am sitting right behind you, and you are grabbing hand fulls of ass, it's not exactly what i planned on viewing for the night. But then the worst part isnt that they are grabbing ass, but like, they are mining for gold. Like they stick like 2 or 3 fingers and jam them into the ass crack. It's horrible. And it's usually some older biker chick with "mom jeans" on and a really thin belt.

Staring at ugly chicks- It's sad enough when you see some regular looking guy with a horrible excuse for a cheap Janeane Garofolo knock off, but when i see a old guy checking out some ugly chicks ass, i just feel so sorry for them. I was walking up to the concert last night with this obviously unattractive slightly overweight girl right in front of me. As we walked by these 2 dudes, they did the full on like Pretty Woman stare down as she walked by, and stared at the ass. I felt so bad. At what point in your life do you reach the point when you will just stare at anything. I mean i will stare at hot chicks, but thats about it. When your standards become so low that you will oogle ugly chicks, it has gotta be sad

R.I.P

J.R. passed away this weekend. We pledged our fraternity together, were roomates, and were good friends. I last saw him right before he left for England. I got a message from him when i woke up the next morning telling me to get my ass back to Noodles house to keep drinking.

He was the most forgetful person i have ever met. I'll never forget when i was talking to him after he had finished one of his finals, and he opened his backpack to get something out, and he pulled out the final he had just finished taking. Instead of turning it in he put it in his backpack and left.

J.R. you were one hell of a guy, and i got so many memories of you i will never forget. I'll never forget how happily you lived your life. I promise i'll even cheer for OU to beat USC next year.

Everyone misses you

Love Triangle

i never understood why it was called a love triangle. because if a girl likes a guy, and that guy likes a different girl, that makes a "V" shape, not a triangle.

if the girl likes a guy, the guy likes a different girl, and that girl likes the first girl, it would be a love triangle, and something i would be interested in.

Spider-Man 3

It was horrible. The storyline was stupid, Venom is hardly in it, and for all the money the supposedly spent on CGI and what not, they shoud have reallocated some of the money to Kirsten Dunst's face.

She was so ugly. I think they just gave up on trying to make her look attractive

Also, when the black Spider-Man takes over, instead of looking evil, he looks emo. He could seriously be in Fall Out Boy. Tobey Maguire's acting was so horrible as the evil Spider-Man that it was laughable. i could'nt decide if he was trying to be cheesy or not, but thats how it came across.

Anyway, dont see it.

Mermaid Continued

Marissa got a response about the mermaid craigslist entry that i wrote about a week ago. Here it is

Hello and good fortune Mer. I wish to humbly apologize for how long it has
taken for me to get back to you. I was simply flooded with replies and I
want to respond to each one individually. But I must say you have an
advantage on all my other mermaids, as you own your own suit! I can not tell
you how happy reading this has made me! Where do you live that you would
need to fly here? Also I am asking all the girls to write for me a little
narrative piece on themselves. I dont expect anything the length of a
novella, just a short piece so that I may get to know a little bit more
about you. I have recieved so many wonderful replies to my post that I am
going to require a little bit more to judge who I shall keep, and which
mermaids I must throw back to the sea. How i would love to stock my pool
with a variety of mermaids, all swimming chaotically about, fighting for
space like too many fish in an aquaium. I feel, however, that upon beholding
such a majestic sight, I might pass into the great unknown for happiness.
I'm sorry if you misunderstood, I do not have a merman suit. I am old and
stricken to a wheelchair since my accident, many many years ago. So if you
could write back with details about your life and how you became so
fascinated with meraids, I would be most extatic. Also if you please, a
picture of yourself in your mermaid outfit. And if thats not possible, then
just a regular picture would be FINtastic.
sincerely,
Edbert Horton

I am pretty sure that it's fake, but maybe she should respond for the sheer hilarity of it anyway

Coachella 2007

Sewards and i went to Coachella this weekend. It was amazing. We got the VIP tickets through work, and it helped fuel an unbelievable trip. I still need time to recover completely. MY body is burned, i have been parched for days, and my ears are still ringing, but it was worth it.

We left friday night after work and made it at about 11 just in time to catch Bjork's set. She is amazing, and her voice sounded great. Her dj had this futuristic touch-screen table that i cant even explain, but it was surreal.

We ended up crashing with my buddy in LA Chris and his friends from college house that they rented. Thankfully everyone was super cool, and we spent our night taking jello shots and catching humongous moth's in a cup.

Saturday we woke up and got to Coachella at about 2. Here are the bands i saw

The Fratellis- pretty good

Regina Spektor- really good, not good looing (disappointment)

MSTRKRFT- decent

Peter, Bjorn, and John- booooooooooooooring

Kings of Leon- great. lived up to high expectations

Arcade Fire- was worried they would sound good at a large venue, but were magnificent

Girl Talk- Probably my favorite moment of the weekend. Sewards and i lost each other after Kings of Leon, and i spent the rest of the night by myself. I went over to see Girl Talk, and he had all these hot chicks on stage dancing around, and he was in the back sometimes showing up on the video monitor. Everyone was dacning like crazy as he mixed tracks like whoomp there it is, tincy dancer, aint nothing but a gangsta party, and other assorted hits. He said he only had two minutes left at one point, and about 10 mins later you could see security on stage physically removing him from his dj equipment.

Red Hot Chili Peppers- Pretty good, seen the twice before, but they closed with "under the bridge" whic hi dont think i have seen them do before

The Good, The Bad The Queen- They played their cd from first to last song in order. Was really good.

I also during the day got to meet up with some good high school friends, one of them i had not seen in four years.

Sunday
Explosions in the Sky- Great band, but bad for the main stage, didn't sound that great

Rodrigo y Gabriella- They played "wish you were here" with the crowd singing all the words, very cool

The Roots- Called the tuba player "Tuba Gooding Jr."

Willie Nelson- Boring

Cut Chemist- DJ from Jurassic 5. Did this thing where he interviewed 3 people on a camera, then projected everything he had just taped onto a screen, and made it into a song on the spot, mixing it. Here's a video i took of it


Lily Allen- Sounded good

Crowded House, Manu Chao- I was kinda sorta paying attention, more hanging out in VIP area

Rage Against the Machine- 100,000 people jumping together to Rage songs was amazing. People went fucking nuts, and i have never felt energy like that.

After Rage Against the Machine i drove back to LA, making it home at about 2:30am. it was a fun trip.

Random Tidbits
  • I saw a wasted Tara Reid walking around in the VIP area. She had really saggy boobs and did not look hot
  • Rod Stewart's sun was walking around looking very douchey (sons of hollywood show)
  • My buddy MJ saw Paris Hilton ordering a beer next to him, and she had her mirrow out checking herself while ordering alcohol
  • This scene kid had to stop dancing every few minutes so he could fix his hair so it would be over on of his eyes
  • this baby....i felt for bad for her/him/it

Mermaid

I found this post in the western massachusetts craigslist (don't ask).

"I'm an elderly gentleman who is looking for a college aged girl to dress as a mermaid and swim in my indoor swimming pool while i wheel my chair around the perimeter and toss skittles in. preferably you would catch them in your mouth, but i understand thats not easy, so its ok if they all go in the pool, all i ask is that you try. I'm wealthy, and lonely in my old age. I have a mermaid suit, but if you have your own, by all means wear that. reply for more details"

my first move is obviously to send this to my friend marissa, who is obsessed with mermaids. She calls me as soon i email it to her to let me know as soon as she read the first line, her heart started beating so fast that she had to close the email.

she then decided to email back

Hi

My name is MERissa I usually go by Mer. I am obsessed with Mermaids and even have my own Mermaid costume that I not only wear while swimming but also around the house. I just wanted to check the validity of this offer also if you would be willing to pay for my flight. I am a young good looking female. If possible could you attact a photo of you in your Merman suit.

Thanks

Mer

I hope the guys writes back. god bless her

My Mom

everyone loves my mom, as i do, but she has strange little tendencies that i get frustrated with. the main one that has been getting on my nerves lately is her "email etiquette".

She forwards at least 10 emails a week of random pictures of Iran, or kids that want me to email them back cause it will cure their cancer, or if i dial 911 on a ATM machine it will call the police, or whatever.

The worst though, THE WORST, is that she doesn't understand the difference between the "subject" and "body" fields in an email. So i get email with nothing in the body but a subject line that runs about 50 words long "HEY DARLING I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU THAT YOUR GRANDMOTHER IS COMING OVER ON SUNDAY SO IF YOU THINK YOU HAVE THE TIME, WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU"

and then nothing in the body of the email

Captain Planet



Earth.....Wind.....Water.....Fire......Heart....


HEART? How screwed did that guy get? Wow you can get Monkeys to pick the fruit from the top of the tree. I remember thinking what a joke that was. Just look at this



The Hidden Knowledge of the Rainforest????? Are you fucking kidding me? That's a superpower? I think the kid was gay to. That probably helped the plot a long, i just remember being a kid, and they were all putting the rings together or whatever, and the one kid said "Heart" i was laugh my cynical/sarcastic laugh that would haunt women for years to come

Shuffleboard With The Boys

We went to this dive bar called Goat Hill in Newport Beach for St. Patricks day. We descended onto the shuffleboard table, and i thought i would be the next Ansel Adams and try and get some action shots.

We got back drunk as shit and everyone ended up passing out except for Ernesto and i. We took shots and kept boozing, and out of nowhere stumbles Elliott, drunk as shit, and he walks into the kitchen, opens the dishwasher......and......well......urinates in it.

Big Bear

This weekend, 12 of us and Marie all went to Big Bear. I organized the trip for all of us to go for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night. Is was a weekend filled with debauchery from all different spectrums. We laughed, Kedis cried, and all of our liver's took a beating after each night. To sum it up, here is a laundry list of alcohol consumed over three nights (and days.......and mornings).

1 Keg of Coors Light
5 30 Packs Bud Light
1 12 Pack Bud Light
1 Bottle of Jagermeister
2 Bottles of Jose Cuervo Tequila
2 Bottles of Bacardi Rum
1 Handle of Smirnoff Vodka
1 Bottle of Kahlua
2 Bottles of Brandy
1 Bottle of Crown Royal
1 Bottle of Jack Daniels

I took that pic the first night, and didn't realize we were going to need to buy more booze. highlights include:
  • Police show up at 5:15am. I answer the door in a vest and no undershirt and explain he cant blame us since we starting boozing at 11pm. Elliott runs through the house to make sure he can shake the Cops hand
  • Kedis starts crying and goes for a walk at 2am. While on the walk, she leans against a tree and starts crying. A dog bites onto her pants, and she runs back to the house with the dog attached to her leg
  • Sledding down the stairs inside the house. Elliott deciding he doesn't need a sled and runs and jumps down the stairs instead. He later decides to put his foot in the fire to cauterize the woundPhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting
  • Marie bending over repeatedly without bending her knees, trying her best to get every guy's attention

Anyway, here are a few of my fav pics from the trip. I have no idea why i used Sepia.

sometimes for no apparent reason (like this moment right now) my liver hurts. i think it is just my liver's way of telling me that if i thought i could get a way with hundred's of red headed slut shots and thousands of natty light beer's, i have another thing coming.

now that i think about it though, i don't even know where my liver is.

ummm

how has no one ever questioned the absurdity of those nets that they throw over people in movies? is it really that hard to escape a net with little weights on the ends?

New Driver's License Picture

For the last few months, i have been growing my beard out. At first there was no rhyme or reason, until a beautiful gift came in the mail. The for to renew my driver's license. Sweet, now i can at least have a goal. I decided to keep growing my beard until i took my new picture, which was a few weeks ago. All in all, i didn't shave for a little over 2 months.

I then hatched the plan to try and take my picture with my shirt off. People suggested that i wear a tube top, and if anyone said anything, i could sue for discrimination. That wasn't going to fly though, so i wore a Lakers jersey, in hopes i could take it off.

When the time came to take my picture, the following conversation took place

Disgruntled Black Lady: Ok please put your feet on the line and smile at the camera
Bones: Got it
Disgruntled Black Lady: And could you please take your glasses off your head
Bones: Sure, let me take my shirt off while i'm at it
(menacing stare as i start to lift my shirt up and over my head)
Disgruntled Black Lady: No i don't think so
Bones: Come on, it could be...
Disgruntled Black Lady: No
Bones: How about i just slide the jersey off my shoulders down to my arms then?
Disgruntled Black Lady: No.

So, it didn't work out to hot, and this is what i ended up with

Wikipedia

Everyone at work likes to heckle me for going to San Diego State. Almost everyone here either went to UCLA or USC, and if not, were in Skull and Bones with George W. Bush at Yale.

So, one of the guys decided to add this to the SDSU wikipedia article:

"San Diego State University students are notorious for not being able to count by one."

While it's hard to debate our inexperience in counting by one, every SDSU student can count by the numbers that matter....6,12,and 30...as well as by 1/5 and a handle....whatever size that is. While i can't quite argue with the intelligence factor of many of my fellow alumni, there was one area i decided to tackle in the UCLA wiki...

"Although UCLA is located in the heart of Los Angeles, a formidable wall at some point has been constructed around the institution, only allowing the most repulsive of females admittance into the otherwise exemplary school."


Assholes.

What

I had one of those life altering moments this past Saturday. I went out to Palos Verdes for a very good friends birthday party. After hours of debate over pitchfork's reviews and realizations that the people from high school we so enjoyed humiliating in quiet are now fulfilling things we never thought possible (making babies, doing speed, and running internet cafe's to name a few) i was more than a bit inebriated.

As i drove back to Santa Monica at 4am going 90 on the freeway i had a moment. As the tandem of Everlast's "What it's Like" and Gary Wright's Dream Weaver blared over my Altima's stock speakers, and with the taste of Corona and Vodka fresh on my lips, i realized that i was destined to either die in a catastrophic accident, or become the subject of multiple non-fiction novels.

Let's hope it's the latter

Randy Newman

Randy Newman just wrote this song in response to the most recent State of the Union address. The lyrics appeared on 1/23 in the NY Times. I love this guy, the last few versus are the best
