I think we’ve been here most every year on the night they light it up. :)

The Limousines

anything can happen
as we make our way
home from the club

we could both be flattened
by a double decker city bus
otherwise a perfect night
if we’re not dead before it ends

we could live forever
but we’ll never get
this chance again…

don’t you worry,
don’t think about
tomorrow morning,
what’s your hurry?
just focus on tonight

we could fall in love
and trade this city
for a change of pace,
find our slice of paradise
and give our babies hippie names

maybe we’ll both hate each other
shitty sex ‘n seperate beds
we could get restraining orders
vow to never speak again…
on second thought let’s not say names,
I’ll just be me and you be you,
two perfect strangers being sneaky
with a flask of booze,
no need to think of any clever
pick up lines to use

i’ve got a stack of records
you just bring your dancing shoes

tonight i’ll drop the needle,
pop a bottle, sit back and just watch you

These pants are too bell-bottom-y. I feel like I’m headed to the disco.

Death Metal English

My favorite thing about Death Metal English is that it isn’t subject matter-specific. Of course, it works best when you’re talking about Satan, or Lovecraft, or murder or whatever. But you can turn pretty much any phrase or sentence into fodder for a sick death metal song using the same tropes:

Normal English…
“Commuting to work”

Death Metal English…
“TRANSPORTATION OF THE WAGEBOUND UNTO THE NEXUS OF PERPETUAL QUOTIDIAN ENSLAVEMENT”

The caps are important when talking and/or writing in Death Metal English.

So apparently you’re supposed to eat bananas upside down to get less of the stringy stuff.

The last thing I was thinking before going to sleep is that…

I drank the way I did because I’m an alcoholic, no other reason than that. Sure I was full of hurt and anger but the driving force for me to drink was alcoholism.

Drinking can kinda be like going swimming in a lake. It’s a little dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing, don’t take the proper precautions, yada, yada.

But for an alcoholic it’s like going swimming in the lake with one of those big ship anchors chained to my leg. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get back to shore. Hopelessly treading water while everybody else was drying off and packing up the car.

Shut up. :-)

Amazon’s Jeff Bezos looks to the future

There has never been a company quite like Amazon. Conceived as an online book seller, Amazon has reinvented itself time and again, changing the way the world shops, reads and computes. Amazon has 225 million customers around the world. Its goal is to sell everything to everyone. The brainchild of Jeff Bezos, Amazon prides itself on disrupting the traditional way of doing things. A few weeks ago the company announced it was launching Sunday delivery.

Bezos is on the same level with Steve Jobs as far as I’m concerned — disruption of the traditional and revolution of the existing. He’s not as sexy, out in front delivering iPhones to the masses but Amazon did $17.09 billion in sales in Q3 of this year.

How has the Internet changed my life? I used to watch 60 Minutes now and then on regular, over-the-air TV. Now-a-days I didn’t even know Rose was interviewing Bezos until I read about it online. Even more…I read the transcript and watched the video clips on the link above, got the whole scoop as much as I needed…at my leisure…here at work.
