To answer your first question: Yes, Barenaked Ladies are a bunch of really cool guys…they were friendly and thankful for all of our help, just as any good band is…not only that, but they put on a great show…Afterwards I got a chance to talk to them for a little bit, and they are very funny folks…goes to show that even ‘big’ stars can still be really cool guys…There was no problem getting a picture with them, though Drew (the new intern) could use some more training in the ‘Taking A Picture With The Band” department…she’s not a pro the way Lynn and Mel were, but she’ll learn…

They call me

Saturday, Grant, Justa, Leo, Drew (not the Intern, the guy who lives in the dorms) went to Montgomery Mall…I got some CD’s at FYE, including the Nekromantix, Roxette, The Smithereens, a collection of 60’s garage rock, and a Calypso collection from Putomayo records (if you want great world music, Putomayo is the label for you)…Also, my Madness CD came, and it’s making me even more excited for this Thursday, otherwise known as Dance Craze 2: The Best Of British Ska!!…I’m gonna don my rudest duds and shuffle downtown to groove to the rockin’est rocksteady beats!…hep! hep!

Saturday night, I made the decision to stay up to watch the live webcast of the resurrection of Lee Press-On and the Nails…was it a wise choice?…well, it was a great show (even if the acts before Lee went on were a bit cheesy…I got to sleep around 5:30…that’s in the AM…I’ll have to see them live sometime, maybe if I live out there…or better yet, if they come out here (hint hint)

We watched Mulan today in English class…it really makes sense: our topic is gender roles and differences, so what better way to learn about those than to watch a Disney movie?…as a stockholder, you don’t hear me complaining…

That’s all for now…math test in 40 minutes…maybe it won’t suck…maybe the middle-aged woman who sits next to me won’t try to copy off my test…who can tell?

PS..not only have I got a portable hole, but now I have a Gene Shay bobblehead doll…my Mexican Wrestler guy was getting lonely

Lyric of the Time:
Buster bowl me over with your bogus dance
Shuffle me off my feet
Even though I’ll keep on runnin’
I’ll never get to Orange street
