Here I am. It’s sunday night here in Leschi, and the neighbour’s dogs are yapping–of course, inexplicably. I can hear the water outside… or maybe it’s just the sound of I-90 to the south. My brand new job starts tomorrow, and I’ll admit I’m a bit wigged out. You know, it’s that make or break…

Salt Lake, I Love You
…but you’re bringing me down. Sorry, I was listening to LCD Soundsystem this morning, and the track “New York, I Love You” came on, and it seemed applicable. What I’m trying to say is that as of the 12th of next month, I will no longer reside in the town of my birth, Salt Lake…
iTunes Plus Price drop?
There are “reports”:http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/news/comments/099-drm-free-tracks-appear-on-itunes/11667 that $0.99 iTunes Plus (you know, the DRM free variety) tracks have been popping up at the iTunes Store. “John Gruber”:http://daringfireball.net/linked/2007/october#mon-15-plus speculates that it’s either a mistake (doubtful, having looked around, noticed all “Sub Pop releases”:http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=263615298&s=143441 are the same), the introduction of variable single pricing (not entirely impossible… there are still a…
Charity Yard Sale for MS
My family and “the Lucky 13s”:http://lucky13s.org are putting on a MASSIVE yard sale this Saturday here in SLC (technically in Murray, where the majority of my family live) to benefit those with MS, like my brother, Seth. When I say massive, I really mean it. I visited my mother on Sunday and they’d only just…
Aww… pretty
Me and the Bean at Sundance. Yeah, it’s blurry as hell, but she liked the photo, so yeah.
No love for the Snake?
I’ll admit I’m a bit obsessed with good podcasts (and I’ve always loved video tutorials, so therefor screencasts are a godsend). I probably look for new podcasts to subscribe to every week. Not that I listen to them all the time (some I add and listen to once before discarding), and frankly some just annoy…
Chantanee
When I was recently in the Seattle area, I went to dinner with my buddy Tyler and his brother Kyle. We’d just finished watching an inane Michael Bay movie, and I had to get up the following morning before 5 A.M. to be ready for the car service to the airport, so I was thinking…
Got It Goin’ On
Well, the B does stand for Brett…
32 Degrees
I spent the weekend in lovely Seattle. I won’t divulge the details of what transpired there quite yet, but suffice it to say that I had a nice time, and, well, I’m trying to adjust back to the Utah weather: All hail air-conditioning… that’s all I can say.
Ignorance is not bliss; it is dangerous
““One adult in five [in the US] thinks the sun revolves around the Earth, an idea science abandoned by the 17th century.””:http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/30/science/30profile.html?ex=1183780800&en=e3760aa7d1b5022a&ei=5070 U-S-A! U-S-A! Let’s blow some shit (or people) up!! WAHOO!! Seriously… I’m beginning to think the movie “Idiocracy”:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387808/ is more a cautionary tale, rather than a comedy. I’ll continue: Dr. Miller’s data reveal…
