I think i inhaled meth lab smoke.

So my new place caught on fire. no biggie.

just 3 floors DIRECTLY below my apartment, its only midnight... its cool.

today I saw this article from CityNews and it says that they feel more than just a fire started or something, and they are investigating it.

I inhaled the smoke trying to figure out if it was worth getting out of the building.

here is my phone videoing us outside, and the plethera of fire trucks that came.

Qik video

i think the investigation may explain my freaky dreams last night.

records you should buy: Mama, I'm Swollen


Cursive is a band, that the empire loves, for every record they have put out, we have enjoyed thoroughly, and more often than not, more-so than the last. While this outfit from Omaha has been around for a long time, they have never really been larger than the small indie scene it feeds life into. This may be detremental to them, but for some reason I wouldn't have it any other way. I have only heard the two songs which are available for stream off the saddle-creek site, and I liked them very much, not a huge step away from cursive sounds, and its almost as if they went back to their roots with this one, and left Happy Hollow to waft in the direction they could have went, but I am glad they did not persue.

All I can say about this one, is that I am excited to hold the Vinul LP in my hands, but am sad that I have to wait until May for that.

The album is available for download through saddle creek, or purchase in CD format only at this point. Check out saddle-creek, they have many different ways to purchase this record, and each one has something special that makes it worth it. Support bands like these, and labels like saddle-creek.

cheers.

Paint a Still Life Movement

When I was gone to the warm parts of the earth, Mike filmed some bands... edited them, made a crappy logo, horrible titles on one video... and didnt export them to the proper ratio... so they are squares but widescreen, so you get the black bars...

nevertheless enjoy. and contact us if you want some live videos of your band.

Take that cruelty!



California's Proposition 2, otherwise known as the Standards for Confining Farm Animals Initiative, was approved by a 63% majority, which means that by 2015, egg-laying chickens, veal calves and pregnant pigs will have to be given enough room to stand up, turn around, lie down, and extend their limbs. Opponents of the measure had argued that the requirements will force egg producers in particular to increase prices and risk losing more business to out-of-state farmers who aren't subject to the new law. But a study by the University of California-Riverside put the likely cost increase at one cent per egg, a price 63% of California voters appear willing to pay.

good thinking

some more nice design




Basic description of the project:
Wptt Contraceptive (a brand name) hopes to create a new packaging of novelty and visual impact. The objective is to emphasize the high contraceptive effectiveness of the products by indicating the painful consequences of having sex without a condom. More than 100,000 people have used the condoms and the sales increased by 21%.
