Ooh--getting your wisdom teeth out is never a fun experience by anyone's measure. Glad there were no complications.

I'm trying to find another roommate, and so far I've managed to line up people to come by and look at the apartment tonight. Unfortunately, half of those people are apparently not going to show up.

::sigh:: fucking people.

Hmm....let's see Pooter...

Well....I clean up after myself!

I got no drama!

I can do light housekeeping! (trash, vacuuming, bug-killing, etc)

420 friendly!

I can make a bomb-ass Denver omelette (if your the morning type)!

...and you can use any of my hair styling products!

@WN

Your post scared me!
My wisdom teeth are long overdue, and i'm such a big pussy for not letting any dentist take them out! I will dread that day when it comes up though!

i got 2 wisdom teeths out at the same time 4 or 5 years ago. wasn't that bad, only thing that sucks was the anesthesia - and no real food for about 3 or 4 days, only soup and stuff.

I had to get all four out. It hurt pretty bad for a day or two and the anesthesia/pain meds kept me slow, down, and depressed for several days afterwards, which sucked. After that it's been fine though! Looking forward to eating normally - you can start to eat real food after 3 or 4 days like pum said, but you still have to chew small and slow since the "holes" are still healing/sore.

@InChem, It's not too horrible... but I'm not saying get excited about it either!

Hope you're all better now WN.
Did you guys hear about Fatboyslim's movie in cinemas?
Its the recording of Big Beach Boutique live. I'm actually looking forward to it since I've never seen him live.

I am a little underwhelmed at the idea of seeing a Fatboy Slim "movie" in the same way that the Chems did. Fatboy Slim does a straight DJ set, though he's a fairly impressive, albeit very cheesy at times, DJ.

I don't know it will hold the same weight, and the reception will likely be more watered down than the Chems. Though, if people go see fucking Nickleback in a movie theater, I suppose anything is possible.

Well, I don't think it needs to be an achievement on the level of Don't Think, the Bros. really pushed the envelope with that movie. It's just a film of Norman playing a DJ set. It'll probably be fun, like his DJ sets.

Him having a "clown" character in his trailer/movie is a bit annoying (since the CHemBrothers have had it for ages) . But I'll just ignore that and watch it anyways. I love FBS and his music. Like Champiness said. It will probably be fun

Gunman kills 12 at 'Dark Knight Rises' screening in Colorado

A suspect is in custody after opening fire at a midnight screening of the Batman film 'The Dark Knight Rises' in Aurora, Colorado, east of Denver. Fifty people are wounded. Witnesses say the gunman released a noxious gas before opening fire, making escape more difficult.



A lone 24-year-old masked gunman entered a Colorado movie theater playing the new Batman movie and opened fire early Friday, killing at least 12 people and wounding 50, according to police and local media. The suspect, a white male, was found in the parking lot and did not resist arrest, CNN said.

Witnesses described a chaotic scene, telling television reporters that they were overcome by noxious gas unleashed by the suspect just before he started shooting, and that they had to decide between staying on the ground, helping wounded victims or running away before the gunman was able to reload his weapon. Survivors said they were forced to run past bodies in the aisles and theater.

The gunman was armed with a rifle, a shotgun and two handguns, police said. Cellphone videos show panicked moviegoers running — some screaming — and others with blood visible.

The death toll was revised downward from an earlier figure of 14 dead given by police in Aurora, a suburb east of Denver.

Crowds of worried family members and friends were gathering at Denver-area hospitals, hoping to hear about their loved ones. According to images broadcast by local television, some held their heads down, and rocked back and forth as they sat on the sidewalk, as the sun rose.

The shooting came minutes after the 12:05 a.m. premiere showing of the widely anticipated premiere of "The Dark Knight Rises."

Eyewitnesses said the gunman entered the movie theater through the emergency exit door near the front of the screen in theater No. 9 at the Century 16 in Aurora. A witness, who declined to be identified, told The Times that the gunman then "threw a canister across the theater," unleashing gas, "then started shooting."

The witness said he saw a man two seats over who was shot in the head. "I can't get his image out of my head," the witness wrote in a message. The victim was wearing a shirt bearing the face of the Joker from the Batman series; after he was shot, he slumped back in his chair, his face covered in blood.

Witnesses told Denver's NBC affiliate, KUSA-TV 9News, that the tall, muscular gunman , wearing a riot helmet, gas mask and dressed all in black, said nothing as he entered the theater. Initially, spectators thought he was part of the show.

But witnesses described seeing him toss two canisters to the ground, and once they exploded, spectators began ducking or running out of the theater, an escape made difficult by the blinding gas.

"He looked so calm when he did it," a witness told 9News.

At one point, there was a pause in the shooting, when the gunman appeared to reload his weapon, and some spectators took that opportunity to flee, witnesses told the NBC affiliate. Witnesses described scenes of gunshot victims scrambling to escape the theater.

The Denver TV station played police dispatch audio of first-responders asking operators to ask for gas masks.

Some of the bullets pierced walls and traveled into the adjacent theater, No. 8, and injured people, 9News reported. A 3-month-old baby was taken to the hospital, but was not wounded by gunfire, 9News reported, quoting a hospital spokesperson. The TV station reported that the infant was checked and then released from the hospital.

"This is a horrific event," Aurora police chief Daniel J. Oates told reporters during a news conference. There was no evidence of a second gunman, Oates said.

That was some absolutely sad and extraordinarily shocking news to read yesterday. I was absolutely stunned.

I saw him dj with these new visuals just a couple of weeks before BBB. A fun set, cannot be compared anything to Don't Think/ the Chems current set or visuals, but fun music and visuals nonetheless. He doesn't play any songs more than a minute anymore, just uses cuts n slices mixed with his older samples, he's been vocal about his new style being inspired by Grandmaster Flash recently. A great "dj". Tsk.

Tom and Ed (and Flatnosegeorge) don't own any copyright on the clown image. Plus Norman Cook has always been a big friend of Tom and Ed.

EDIT : by the way, I don't even think it's a clown, it looks more like a smiley face to me.

How i feel right now....@ 1:04:43



I can't remember if they ever played that in their dj sets or not!!!

Awesome. Was just musing about that error page and that I like that style, and voila, you came up with a post.

It's because they moved the 'forum' right before their page name. You need to save the new url in your shortcuts.

Found a roommate. Nooge.

Now I just need to figure out somewhere I can get some experience doing legal work in the fall... :-/

Yeah, I noticed that the other day too. Neat 404 page. When I saw it I thought there might be a new website coming and got slightly excited, but they just moved the forum into it's own subdomain.

the 404 has been there for awhile, I remember trying to access the older forum using older http addresses. Cool though.

@Poot
congrats on the roomie find!

Thanks Phil.

In other news, trying to figure out what needs to be figured out with the thing and the thing and more news to come. Did someone sprinkle crack in my coffee?
