Happy 23rd!

typed for your pleasure on 23 July 2004, at 3.22 am

It’s come to my attention whilst driving round the streets ov Detroit; from looking at the vehicles, one would surmise that the ‘in’ thing is to have some sort ov body panel damage. Seriously, every fourth or fifth car has something wrong with it — a cracked fender, a dented quarter panel, a broken-and-shoddily-taped-over taillight.. If you ask me, this is just further proof that most ov the people out there need to not be driving, period..

Picked up the new Hives Cd on the way to work, and gave it a cursory listen on the way home. So far, not bad! It’s less the mix ov ‘Kraftwerk meets the Sex pistols’ that Howlin’ Pelle said it would be, but more like Devo meets the Jam, if you can dig that. It’s really Eightiesy. Gotta give it a good honest listening-to, but so far, I’d still say that ‘Veni vidi vicious’ is their best release

    See, you’re Detroit, the banged up car thing doesn’t suprise me 😉 Shoot, I remember a certain Mr. Cat almost killing me a day before my wedding.

    are you sure that wasn’t due to some tosser on a Jet-ski? 😉

    Patrick –
    *snaps fingers* O YEAH! That! It took me a moment to remember! Sorry. 🙂
    Your strange Ohio traffic signals frighten and confuse me. Boxes with green Xs or red arrows in them. It felt like some sort ov psychological test. Guess I would’ve failed! *laughing nervously*
