This pretty much sums up my relationship with my vinyl when I discovered how good it sounded when I got my second (much nicer) turntable in November. I remember thinking, “God, Radiohead has never sounded so good” the first time I played OK Computer on it. Before that I was just into the “collecting” of the records, now I’m into the experience of them.

Joe Rogan, of UFC and Fear Factor fame, is doing a week of guest bloggery (stupid term) at GQ’s website. He’s one of my favorite comedians and, as always, has an insightful and funny take on the Mayans and 2012.

“Ironing techniques by professional craftsmen (shirt)” - プロの職人によるアイロンがけテクニック(ワイシャツ)
This short instructional film showcases unmatchably masterful ironing technique that we’d all do well to learn from, but it’s also one of the most absorbing, delicious demo videos I’ve ever seen.

This is awesome, back to the ironing board for some technique improvements.

My dad is still stuck in the ’90s when it comes to forwarding emails. I get a constant barrage of stuff ranging from “You know your old when…” to weak right-wing propaganda. It wasn’t so bad when they came to my Yahoo address which is mostly junk mail anyway, but somewhere along the line he got my gmail address, and that’s the one that’s pushed to the phone and constantly checked.
On average, I’d say I read 1 in 5, this one came today, it was one of the amusing ones.
This is why I can’t get any work done at home.
Well the dog and the fact that I take videos of the dog on my lap then upload them to the internet and write silly blog posts about it.
It looks like the crazed mutant is going to make it. My buddy is recovering better than expected.
Keep it up Brian, I expect to have drinks with next time I’m in town.

This is the route I took to school on my bike today.
The red X marks the spot where cyclist Virginia Heuer-Bowar was struck and killed by a motorist in 2008. It’s also where, three months later, newspaper columnist Joe Soucheray and a friend promised to run over any cyclists who got in their way.
I hope I don’t get murdered by any newspaper columnists while riding my bike.
Don’t worry, soon newspaper columnists won’t be able to afford cars.

I currently use Nullriver’s Connect360 to push media to my Xbox, but this looks like a nice alternative, especially if you have both a 360 and PS3.

He’s right. I especially like the “Google is doing a better job” section.

Are you enjoying a jamocha shake from Arby’s? No? That’s too bad because mine is delicious.
Thanks to your recommendation, I am. It is delicious. And considering how I’m feeling today, it’s amazing how much a difference something as little as a milk shake can make. Sugar’s healing properties should never be underestimated.
I found out last night that one of my good friends in Arizona tried to commit suicide a couple of days ago. He failed, and he’s currently in the hospital fighting for his life. The details of the attempt aren’t important, but let’s just say that if he makes it, he’ll never be the same guy that all my friends know and love.
Since I moved I haven’t seen or got to hang out with Brian for a couple of years, but he was always a good friend to me, and I just wanted to make this post to celebrate the good times we’ve had together, and to let him know that he’s in my thoughts right now, and that I want nothing more than to be able to see and talk to him again.
Pull through Brian, no matter how bad it was, people love you and we want you here.
I’m not sure what to do some 1800 miles away, and it’s killing me that I have to sit here in this cubicle and wait to see what happens.
