free money
so, katie brought the website www.unclaimed.org to my attention last night. it basically links you to the comptroller and treasury sites for each state in the US. you can then do a search to see if you have any unclaimed property…i quickly checked a few names and it looks like 32ndnotes had some property to claim. i also found that one of my second cousins has 200 bucks he can claim in...
Victory Laps
Two of my favorite records last year were Sun Kil Moon - April and Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever ago. if you already have those records (shame on you if you don’t), well my friends, they both have new EPs out this week that come recommended from yours truly.
I have not heard this Sun Kil Moon yet, but i like everything this dude has ever done really. This record contains 4 bonus songs that...
if you want to see my band...the perennials...
we are playing a show with charlie hall february 12th at convergance here in okc. apparently the place is very small and it should sell out. if you want to come, (i want you to come, so you should want to come) i have been told you should buy your tickets soon. they are available for purchase here.
i paid 300 bucks for a turntable and all i got was...
in november of 2007 i purchased a turntable from a guy on ebay. (his name is larry partin. his username is dart-frog. he lives in new port richey, florida. do not do business with him. read further and you will see why.) the turntable showed up to my house a few days later and upon inspection, it had been damaged during the shipping process. i spoke to larry and explained that i had not spent 300...
walk a year in my jeans
i bought a pair of levi’s vintage clothing deadstock 1947 style 501’s over a year ago…they come unwashed and therefore, they don’t have any prefading or treatment. my goal was to basically see what a pair of jeans would look like if i actually broke them in myself, rather than letting some machine do it. below you will see what the jeans looked like when i got them. they...
this is what my jeans look like after a year of wearing…they have been soaked twice and never washed. i am thinking of washing them soon but i know they will lose a ton of indigo.
look to this site for some visual changes this weekend most likely. i haven’t had much time to really get it where it needs to go. i will say this though…look for the picture of the crying girl from the ou marching band to be all over the internet today. poor girl. apparently there is already a facebook group dedicated to her. speaking of, i keep getting junkmail that says i have a new...
as of about midnight last night, the band has played two shows and had two practices. this is not how any band i have ever been in before operated, but i will say it brings a certain charm to the performances. thanks to everyone who came out last night. i had a blast…my only complaint was the stage volume…I FORGOT EARPLUGS…and i needed them badly. hopefully i will have some more...
well here goes nothing (something)
a new year and new beginnings. i had been toying around with the idea of leaving my xanga site for a while but it hit me a few weeks ago. i was about to put a post up and it asked me if i wanted to post a map showing pollen levels so i could get some extra xanga points. this was the straw that broke my back. i had had (wud up kagga) enough. at this point i had some serious conversations with other...
