I hate not being interesting. I hate not being entertaining. This must have been a character trait I picked up as a youth. As a child, I was a husky little munchkin. On top of that setback, I also wore goofy hand-me-downs and ghetto department store threads. Oh yeah, I wore funky Dahmer glasses, too. Needless to say, I was pretty much shunned and/or made fun of as a elementary student. Knowing all of this, I believe I developed the clown wit to entertain these peasants whom looked down upon my akwardness. Since I've got a giant sponge for a brain, I would come in doing impressions off of Eddie Murphy or Dice Clay cds to make friends. It is rather unsettling at times to know that people are only spending time around you because you either make them laugh or have something else that they desire. It's just human nature I suppose to act that way and I guess I can't really blame anyone. Hell, I've probably acted that way as well. So I guess that explains why I feel gulity about throwing up a general post and leaving just high school yearbook-cliched posts in your various journals.

Nothing new or exciting in my life. I am trying to train my voice so I can sing these tales of woe. Here is what I'm listening to right now in the store. For I am posting at work still...

I know it might be a music snob no-no to have so many best of collections instead of the original albums. Hey, we don't have a turntable set up instore or I could take my place as the record store asshole. Until then, I have to be content with my place as just a run-of-the-mill CD consumer. Are there people out in the world who are actually that nerdy with music???

Much props to my man KURTZ for keeping the life-support going on my SG account. This man is genuine and you all should pay his journal a visit and absorb his Colonel Kurtz world.

Take care everyone. I appreciate all of your visits

SOUNDTRACK THE DAY
Wilco "At Least That's What You Said"

How about that Neil Young and Crazy horse breakdown at the end of that track???
