Some of you people just don't get it...
The Christastic! Quote of the Week:
"A PAR MUST BE SUBMITTED PRIOR TO ASSIGNMENT." - Isn't it the other
way around?
06/11/02: Simply American Well, it's been over a
month now since La Dia De La Guitarra, and it's going slow. My busy
schedule has left me without time to get a proper instructor, so I use books to
learn how to play. And since we all know that I don't like to read, it's
been gruelingly slow, actually, the pace at which I'm learning has been almost
nonexistent. One thing is for sure though, I've got the first 4 measures
of Nothing Else Matters down to a science.
As we all know, summer is right around the corner, and this
summer, I find myself locked away in the confines of summer school. That's
right, for 2 and a half hours every Monday through Thursday, and an extra 4
hours every Monday and Wednesday night, I'll be out learnin' the learnables.
What's on the agenda this time around? Calculus and HTML. What a
combination!
So for the first time in almost a month, I actually read Dan
Means' site. I must first say that I have little respect for a website
that is solely maintained by a dictatorship such as AliErin. Secondly, the
subject matter in all of his posts really have no backbone and lead to only
mindless cracks and eventual let down. My suggestion is that Just Plain
Dan should pull a Jack in the Bock, and go back to its roots. That's
right, more of the man that made Just Plain Dan, Just Plain Dan. You see,
a title like Just Plain Dan is like a guarantee of what you are to find inside.
But when you click on your "Just Plain Dan" shortcut, and find nothing but the
disturbing anecdotes of AliErin, one starts to think, what does Dan really stand
for? It's rather odd how a site titled Just Plain Dan is not actually
Just Plain Dan. No no, perhaps it should be re-titled Just
Plain Ali and Erin using up Dan's Space. Where is the honesty folks?
This reeks of false advertising. Bottom line: the Ducks were more
interesting then Ali and Erin. If I wanted to read a bunch of girls
bickering about how they have a crush on Dan Tacci, I could go back to high
school. Count me out when the next Just Plain Dan bandwagon comes to town.
In other important news, I am now officially 19 1/2 years old
as of yesterday, June 10th. Only 6 more months until I leave the world of
teenagership behind. Thank goodness.
05/02/02: La Dia De La Guitarra Due to my recent
incarceration, few of you will know what I'm talking about, I've had much time
to reflect upon many things in the past two weeks. First off, the life of
the ever so popular (among it's 8 loyal readers) CATWF is coming to an abrupt
end. This all just goes to prove, that no matter how much you think people
care, they really don't give a CR@P about you. I would like to give a big
thanks to Greg Jenkins who put up with me and really helped make the whole thing
a reality. It would have been great if you all just got off your lazy
@$$E$ once in a while. Not Christastic! at all.
Boys Volleyball season has now come to an end, as of last
night. Now begins the season of twice-a-week wrestling nights and lots of
available evenings (hint to all the ladies out there). To occupy myself in
this time of need, I recently decided to take up a new hobby. That's
right, and for those of you who couldn't figure it out because you don't know
enough Spanish to be able to read the subject heading above, today is The Day of
the Guitar! What does this mean you ask? I'm getting a guitar!
And thanks to the modern day miracle that is package tracking (thanks UPS), I
have gathered enough intelligence to determine that today, yes today, is the day
of its arrival! Why a guitar? Thanks to my Nazi mother Adolf
McCleary, I've been sentenced to an undisclosed amount of time in the house, and
I've got to have something to do. So, 300 bones later, my guitar was on
the way. I'd like to give a quick plug to the great people at
musiciansfriend.com who made this
purchase possible. They have great deals, and I mean great, on all sorts
of musical instruments and equipment. Check it out today. So today
marks day 1 of my rise to super rock and roll stardom. Check your local
listings for a Christastic! performance near you!
Adam Kirby and Grant Roberts are rumored to be making their
way back to MV for this weekends Laser Tag game. Dan Wilson may also make
the hour and a half drive from Livermore and bless us with his presence and
wisdom as well. Who knows what will be in store for us this time around.
For those of you who don't know this, Adam has had possession of almost ALL of
my CDs due to my negligence, but it's no matter. The miracle of computers
has replicated all of my CDs into MP3s, so I can listen to them anytime I want.
Also, Adam has my black fleece sweatshirt which I stole from his house fair and
square and couple years back. He didn't have any clue who it belonged to,
so I took it. Now, he has stolen the sweatshirt that I stole from him.
How wrong is that? So much dishonesty in the world.
If you hadn't heard, I've recently traded in my X-Box for a
PS2. Funcoland provided the services this time around. I decided
that the X-Box was too much hype for me to handle, and it didn't have enough to
back itself up. Worst games I've ever seen. The PS2 brings games
such as Grand Theft Auto 3, the best ever, and ATV Off-Road Fury right into my
very home. In GTA 3, "my favorite part is running over the guy who's car I
just stole, with the car I just stole!" Thanks also to Mitch for
persuading me to make the switch.
The people in the booth are shining the red light, which
means that my time here is up. Back to making license plates now.
You'll hear from me again in another month or so I'm sure. Until then,
send autograph requests for this up and coming super start to
