Green Day doing Barry Manilow covers soon

Warning: I'm going to try and add more than one photo to this puppy. I was going to do this yesterday, but I discovered either the website or myself was having issues. My money is on me.


Last week we got in a new bio on Green Day at work. When I scanned it to double check where it went in the store, the catagory came up Standards/Easy Listening. Er...not. There is a new function in our computer system that allows us to report mistakes. I sent in a message pointing out that the book was not in the right place. Here was the reply I got from someone in our company.

"The way things go around here folks, it's an accomplishment that it ended up in music."

I want to buy this person a drink.


Tried to watch the 24 trailer today, but thanks to my snail's pace dial-up all I got was the audio and a couple of flashes of images. Apparently, at the beginning of the season Kiefer will look like he's performing in the Jesus Christ Superstar revival.

I've been listening to the new My Chemical Romance cd while typing the blog this evening. I was concerned that it was going to sound a bunch like Queen. Nothing against Queen, but the first single had me thrown. I'm pleased to report that I am really digging it. It's not as freakishly concept heavy as I thought it was going to be. Right now I'm favoring "This Is How I Disappear," "I Don't Love You," and "House Of Wolves."

Not a big fan of the blonde hair on Gerard though.

This is my fabbo friend Paul, who is attempting to help me make this damn thing look better. I've conquered multiple pictures, now if I can just fix the text. I snagged this pic from the website Paul writes for. He doesn't know it yet (or he will now I suppose), but when I'm 90 and still single, I'm going to lure Paul into marrying me with the promise of a kick ass cd and dvd collection along with control of the remote. Assuming he's not already married of course.

Hope it's not too annoying that I'm featuring you my friend. Figured it was okay since you're online already for all to enjoy!

WATCH ME:

Aqua Teen Hunger Force--Cartoon network rules. "drivin' in my car, livin' like a star, ice on my fingers and my toes and I'm a Tarus..." All new season started this past Sun. and I was amazed to see a character drawn to look like a dick. He was building a dick rocket...seriously. Then Carl got a sex change op, momentarily. This show is messed up, but beyond funny.

LISTEN TO ME:

Radiohead "Everything In It's Right Place"--hypno-therapy for me

Ha! 90, eh? Little do you know that I have "a thing" for 90-year-olds!

Let's work on "wrapping" that text around the photos you post. Again, I'm not familiar with the blogging software, but if it allows basic html (which I'd imagine it does), it should work.

In the brackets that include the location of your image, add 'align="right"' (don't use the single quotes) for the image to align with the right-hand margin, or "left" for the left. You may also want to add a little bit of space between the image and the words (say, 6 pixels). This is done with 'hspace="6"' for the horizontal space; 'vspace="6"' for vertical. It won't let me paste an example here, so I'll e-mail it to you...

Good luck! Thanks for the shout out!
