Glad to hear you are on the mend. Nothing like some prescription beats to make it all better. :)


Speaking of shows... on July 3, Peter Hook (from New Order) is doing a DJ set down here in Orange County at this place called the Detroit Bar. So me and makeskidskill aka stash are going. If anyone (ie inchemwetrust) happens to be trapped behind the Orange Curtain it would be cool if you could make it.

PRESCRIPTION BEATS, BABY!


Yes, take it easy and get better, so that life can present you with other opportunities for debauchery. ;-)

kind of glad that you two are in Cali! And can relate to how shit goes down in our areas(music,politics,or any dramatic's) Speaking of OC, I was around there last week at Dave & Busters for a co-workers party, and sad to say that my gaming skills are not up to par as they use to be (Duh! I'm 34) but when it comes to the classics like Galaga, Robotron, or SF2, stand the hell back! i'm good, but i'm no Billy Mitchell.

hahaha - the Billy Mitchell reference cracks me up. I take it you've seen the documentary The King Of Kong? If not, go check it out and be happy that you aren't Billy Mitchell because he's actually a bit of a tool.


I've never been good at Donkey Kong anyway. I honestly think I only spent 1 coin playing that game. Back in 1980-something. :P I will always have a soft spot for Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man because I remember when both were new and all the rage (I am 36, stash is 35)... And I also remember blowing my allowance at the local mall arcade on the Pac Man games. And Centipede, hahaha. Of course I'm not very good at either of those games today, but I will say it's amazing how the brain remembers the patterns and game play even after taking a really long time off from playing it. It doesn't take but maybe a couple of gameplays and you're brain starts remembering ths stuff and next thing you know, you're magically transported back to your childhood when you had all the time in the world to blow your allowance at the arcade. That is, unless the Pac-Man joy stick is broken or the game is being hogged up by a Billy Mitchell wannabe.


Were you at Dave & Busters over at the Irvine Spectrum? It's a hop skip and jump from where I am. I must be getting really old because that place gives me a migraine after 15 minutes but thankfully my son has already spent his tokens playing that Aliens shoot-em-up game (now that's fun!)

@Whirly, ChemWeTrust, Pooter


Week late, but whatever. I'm busy as all hell, for some reason. And I keep forgetting that you awesome people are just a click away on my bookmarks bar in Safari.

Pooter, I'd be TOTALLY down to some hanging out. I adore San Fran but am now just old enough to appreciate it's party scene. And what a scene it is. So I've heard.

Chem, I can't wait my self. I really want to start making my own games. I'm a really story and visual elemented person, but I know enough powergamers that I really want to make the gameplay really awesome and unique, too.

Whirls, awesome, I have a benevolent watcher of my artistic career! =D


In other news, I went to my first big Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournament yesterday. I got my ass absolutely handed to me. But I had some good moments and got to see the best Ness player. Which was worth the whole trip and ass-whippings.

R.I.P. Mr. Carlin...


This is the first time in long time I feel bad about a celebrity death...

Me too, man. Me too.


I never got to see his standup, but this man was a great comedic force in the world... :-(


In the last year or two, every celebrity death I've seen hasn't resonated with me at all. Oddly, this one has me somewhat downtrodden. Well, I suppose it's not odd--I respected the guy, a lot.

I remember George Carlin from his Saturday Night Live days, and to this day I remember his stand up bit talking about how we buy bigger houses to we can accumulate more shit. And whenever something's rotten in the fridge and past the date, the George Carlin quote "here this smells like shit, here smell it" comes to mind.


It's always a bummer when someone who makes us laugh passes on. His humor will be missed.

So I'm reading my local paper today and I see that two apartment blocks have been condemned in the city for being drug dens and prostitution hangouts. Then I look at the address and realize that one of them is the place I used to live until 10 months ago.....LOL. Glad I moved. It sounds like my former landlord had to give the property to her ex husband in a divorce proceeding back at the start of this year. That's when it went down hill. He got on the good side with the dealers and hos and stopped paying utilities eventually.

Somehow I want to blame darkstar for this after finding out about his nights of excess here in edmonton and partying at the house next to the apartment building (I kid...). Still, makes me laugh.

Wow... quite the insight into the shady surroundings of your past residences. ;-)


It's always interesting to get some perspective on places you've lived--I've encountered some weird energy in some of the places I've stayed over the years, and later learn why. For instance, I learned after I moved out that one of the girls who was living at this house where I was staying was being abused by her boyfriend. :-( I met the fucker once, and all I can say is meth is a lame drug.

Right can someone help me, ive just been watching mtv dance after dark and saw a video of chemical brothers tune that ive never heard before.

Basically its a girl standing on a beach and keeps having flash backs to a club. She chases a little girl who has one eye then an old barn falls apart but the window fall over the girl, thus she isnt hurt.

Any ideas please? Might be totally new?

Hey Shade. Looks like Csar answered this one for you--The Test is the name of the song. Come with Us is the album.


Amazing track, no?

The weird thing is that before I left it was a great place. It was a really nice neighborhood, mostly students. The (former) Landlord kept the place in great shape. Heck she even replaced all our carpet and lino when we moved in no charge.

Still have to laugh at the whole situation thou :Heh:
