recently
I have not done anything here for a while. as I said before I have been working nights; most of last week and monday morning. therefore, I need to do a little uppity-dating.
hmmmm, what is new? well not much actually, at least not in my life. I could prattle on about my recent purchase of the first (International) Noise Conspiracy album, which is amazing and which all you musically illiterate heathens would not understand the complex stripped down beauty of. or I could pontificate on the wonderful biography of Tom Waits, but most of you would simply go "huh?" and again not be aware of the beauty and artistic landscape the man has and continues to cover musically and as an actor. therefore, I will not discuss these things.
I saw Hellboy on friday night, which i had been waiting a year and a half for (possibly more). it is an amazing movie, the story line is good for a comic book based film. the special effects are relatively amazing. the movie had alot of potential and i think lived up to most of that potential.
I've had a bit of a conversation with tim and mark about Rasputin last night. i've read a little bit about him in the past. he was really an amazing man. he could possibly be the greatest proof of either the power of a spirit to possess a man or that there are beings or men that surpass supernaturally the confines of human ability and constitution.

i don't know what 'sarcasism' is but i am sure everyone is feeling stupid for reading your blog this long and still not paying attention to the refused or (i)nc. although, if they don't know who tom waits is...

I'm not feeling stupid, but the assuming that those who read don't know what you're talking about, is a little premature. And yes, we get the "sarcasism".
By the way, you did a great job at the contemporary worship night, it was a really... honest night of worship. I loved it.

ok smarty pants what am i talking about eh? lets see you impart your wisdom upon us. no really i'd be glad to hear it. i've been meaning to burn you an t(i)nc cd.
thats for the praise. its wierd, i don't like worship, but i like playing in that setting. mostly i like playing with paul and chris and kevin and that keyboard guy (whose name i can remember on account of we just yell at each other).

Really? Me, a CD? I'd be honoured. I do know of Tom Waits, and have read a lot on Rasputin. It's been a while though...hey, feel free to come tomorrow morning - I'm selling a lot of my books in a garage sale. Though I might keep the good ones to pass on to friends...if everyone did that (after they no longer need it to read) we'd have way more material and not always need to buy it all...

I did some research, because I'm not an officianado on the man - I like this quote...
"Theres a golden moon that shines up through the mist
And I know that your name can be on that list
Theres no eye for an eye theres no tooth for a tooth
I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth
He was down there by the train."
