i love my ipod. shuffling is probably the best feature. some of my highlights of shuffling so far are all my oasis and my "punk" genre. good stuff.
...
an la from the office came into our office and was talking about this slug of an intern he has to deal with. i can't really say much more because i don't want for anyone to know who the la or intern is, but it was just cool cuz he knew i was sitting there listening to him but i just think he thinks that what i hear i'll keep in the office. it was funny though only because i'm close to actually all the interns. except maybe not so much mykel. she's in her own little world i think.

mykel is a fellow intern. she's actually graduated and currently working on her second internship. she is very eager to make a good impression in order to get hired. gets annoying sometimes, but there is no doubt she will be a successful woman. she kinda looks like a brunette paris hilton. kind of. she's a dem and thinks my wife is gorgeous. i agree.
...
so thrilled to be home early. only problem is now i don't know what to do. didn't have time this morning to get the paper so i'm walking over now to get one. i can't miss my sudoku. wish there was somewhere i could go outside and be alone. like provo had my little park. my only substitute here are restaurants.

i think the government fabricated this al qaeda letter. they could totally get away with it. and some of the things stated in the letter are absurd. these people aren't this retarded. its all a little too much stuff that the government would want people to hear. [and sure enough, a few days later al qaeda said that the letter is fake and not from them] just so you know, i have a big time superstition about big ass crows and ravens. i can remember times in my life where they have freaked me out sitting, walking, flying, and cawing. i hate 'em. but they are intriguing at the same time. off to baltimore.

so far i like maryland. lots of trees. good and fast drivers who actually seem to know what they are doing. new york is only like 200 miles from me. that's crazy. baltimore is a good location too between so many good cities. freeways all have a really good flow to them. in the future when we are all living off of blackberry type devices, one of its features will be as follows: i call x, x answers her device, can see me through our cameras, and i can show her exactly where i am through some kind of streaming video being sent to her device's screen.
...
i'm in ravenstown. not so far from me. i'm liking this town. this is the absolute coolest barnes & noble i've ever been in. and very nice hard rock i must say. sucky service at the front though. being a party of one automatically means that i should sit at the bar. same stupid music as every other one. things like driving across the country once a year or so; why must this end once we get older and married? why can't we do this like every year? now to get home.
...
i'm so glad i decided to drive here. so glad.
...
off to buy my cd/dvd at the mall. need to decide what i'm gonna try and buy.

nanny mcphee looks dumb. i'll only see it if i get a lot of recommendations for it. the theater needs to update 'the 2wenty' more often. chicken little looks really dumb. zathura actually looks interesting. harry potter looks so unbelievable [in a good way].

Corpse Bride (2005): no denying how unbelievable the film is. [another good thing] you'll never see so many skulls in your life. music not as memorable as nightmare before. didn't like all the numbers. worth buying for me because it's still really good and anyone can appreciate the work that went into it. everyone else just buy nightmare.

is it polite to say hello to a blind person who comes into the laundry room when you two are the only ones in there? i assume there is nothing wrong with that. better than the awkward silence of them knowing you are there and me just making my random noises of doing laundry. i'd be scared to death if everywhere i went i couldn't see anything, but only heard sounds of some random person a few feet away. well i said hi to someone tonight and hopefully they were cool with it and maybe it put them at ease. or they could probably give a rat's ass and i'm just thinking about this too much. i'll go with that.

larry walker representing for st. louis. too bad the rest of them suck. wow! that was an incredible play! larussa was booted earlier. it seems like these last few years have been some of the best post season drama in a long time.

someday you will be able to connect your device into your deck in your car and your car will play all your mp4s. these devices will be great as a tool in our lives as computers and the internet both have become. but it won't be all positive. people will start stealing them and getting a ton of info that could be really bad. we already saw a preview with the hilton thing. [i have more ideas about the device, but i'll save them for another time. my device that i have yet to develop will be so much more than a ipod/blackberry/cell phone.]

Ummmm, they already have mp4 players, and they are already capable of being played through car systems. You can get em at Best Buy...

And they already have phones integrated with ipod functions, and blackberry's can do both of those right now (not quite the capacity of ipod though, give it 6 months)

Your ahead of your time Einstein

thanks for the update and trying to make me look stupid. alway appreciated. so your best buy mp4 players are cell phones too? and have blackberry functions? you must have read my entire post but somehow skipped the last sentence. let me repeat just in case you missed it: i have more ideas about the device, but i'll save them for another time. my device that i have yet to develop will be so much more than a ipod/blackberry/cell phone. need it again? here goes: i have more ideas about the device, but i'll save them for another time. my device that i have yet to develop will be so much more than a ipod/blackberry/cell phone.

Ummmmm that first post is gay.
Bet he's bitter he couldn't get on for the Christmas season at Radio Gack.

I'll be getting my MP4 player the day I buy a freaking cell phone...never.
It's all about Analog, when will you learn, son.
You know who this is...

oh i know who you are. and i'm all about analog too, but as long as it's not crappy music. you could toss 80% of yours into the backyard of your gay neighbors.
