gettin the weight up


























gettin the weight up

couple music blogs for the heads

rappamelo

real hip hop addiction

dj cable

here's a really good song too, chase and status -- eastern jam

k those are some good ones. gotta go lift weights today, last time i'm gonna be able to do that for a while! got shoulder surgery scheduled for thursday, finally gonna get it over with, gonna suck, but i'll be alright. we'll see how the sling thing goes, i'm sure i'll be able to use a keyboard ok

weather's kinda lame. i read the metro this morning and there was a letter to the editor about how all the negative press about palin is actually bad for the democrats because it is A LOT OF PRESS which means that they are getting a lot of ATTENTION which is NOT A GOOD THING.

think about how many times you've seen biden recently? like, none. press -- you're blowin it, stop the palin stories, we know she's beyond brutal

pbs poll -- do you think sarah palin is qualified to be vice president?

got forwarded this this morning, i forwarded it on, posting it here, apparently republicans got wind of this beforehand and are gonna try to win it, which is wack

sarah palin is the HARRIET MIERS of this years election. it doesn't get any more simple. she is so beyond unqualified it's a joke. of course calling anyone QUALIFIED is an effort in imagination and extrapolation, but she is clearly not the person for the job.

we are taking the attention away from barack OBAMA. also, watched daily show and colbert last night. two themes from the debate -- mccain saying barack doesn't "understand" things and then barack saying that mccain is "right." barack -- it's a debate yo. it's a DEBATE. come on

k there's my political rant. the last 8 years have resulted in hurting this country and the world. feeling unempowwered and disenfranchised you have to SPEAK UP and show that you still CARE

vote on nov 4. our voter turnout is so low that it's a joke, let's change that. get involved

"Garnett, Allen, and Paul Pierce all looked decidedly skinnier and less muscular than when we last saw them in June. Rajon Rondo, on the other hand, looks positively jacked."

in tune


in tune

lotta fun at dartmouth, couldn't be better

was gonna drive up friday, but rain was bad and it was better to be inside with paul and kate and farah

drove up yesterday, went to ebas at 6, saw pete and everyone and scott and alums and talked to undergrads. they were all so nice and happy and eager and introduced themselves to us.

found out that some of the traditions we started have not failed -- rowers still squash each others foods with their hands

jam eastern





















jam eastern

Rena compiled another poem from my blog, thus I am elated. Read her post at the Kore Press blog and hit up the comments section.



I gotta go to a gallery
in my shaq dunkmans,
relaxing alternating with aspirations and intermittent accomplishments.
Please support the artist.
Traveling to suburban libraries, I had to build levees.
The bartender had to come over and say that his ears couldn't handle it.
I had the best burrito of my life.
This poor guy in the Ukraine wishes he wasn't tall.
Protein bars or protein shakes?
There is more granite in Vermont than in New Hampshire.

widget snapshot
























widget snapshot

eh pretty clever for a random creative blogpost huh?

i didn't go to that show last night because i got sick, but i'm feeling better now. stupid stomach bug

widgets are cool, i just installed a blogger widget to show who comes to the page

although these widgets are kind of cool. i'm always looking at them when i'm on this computer which is falling apart, monitor held together by binder clips, guts and cables spilling out

my network works fine now after i got mad at comcast then realized it was my fault because all i needed to do was turn off the turbo on my router (dummy)

my calendar is cool, the neon green on black is a fave of mine, design is pretty brilliant too, thanks to apple

the sol widget that shows you where you are in the day with the sunrise and sunset is pretty cool. cept i never seem to be too conscious of when the sunrise and sunset are. i'm always sleeping through the sunrise, and i don't have any great view of a sunset, more of a church, which isn't so bad

the upload/download widget is cool and shows me how rapidly i'm depleting the few square inches of space i have left on my hard drive

the weather widget is awesome, seems like the weather is always up to something! except you know what i find kind of annoying? get this -- when there's only like a 20 or 30 percent chance of rain then the icon turns to rain?!!?? but that only means it might rain!! ya know?!?!

yeah, you know what i mean, i think i'm just bitter from all the rain this summer

i've become a professional music downloader, i've been pretty lucky and gotten pretty good and come across some really good stuff. here is a pretty amazing mp3 disclaimer i found. oh yeah mp3 disclaimers are for *******

"You can not download music from this page just you can watch links. In spite of this webpage come into being for popularization of electronic music.If you even so decide to download this PROMOTION music than you do this your own responsibility and you have to remove this within 24 hours then again you commit delinquency.You can purchase original version in shops."

in that spirit...

new black milk instrumentals -- HOTT!!!

some loose madlib songs

one day rudebwoy























one day rudebwoy

from the wikipedia entry for bao xishun, who is the 2nd tallest person in the world (first tallest is this poor guy in ukraine who wishes he wasn't tall):

"In December 2006, Bao Xishun was asked by veterinarians to assist them in removing shards of plastic from the stomachs of two dolphins. The dolphins had accidentally swallowed the shards, which had settled in their stomachs and caused a loss of appetite and depression. Veterinarians had failed to remove them, so Bao Xishun used his 1.06 metre-long arms to reach into the dolphins' stomachs, to remove the plastic manually.[3] The manager of the aquarium, the Royal Jidi Ocean World, confirmed, "When we failed to get the objects out we sought the help of Bao Xishun from Inner Mongolia and he did it successfully yesterday. The two dolphins are expected to make a full recovery."[4] (A similar operation was performed by American basketball player Clifford Ray, who was asked to use his long arms to save a California dolphin in 1978.)[5]"

(thought you'd like that one Jeff)

Men hang out their signs indicative of their respective trades; the shoemaker hangs out a gigantic shoe, the jeweler a monster watch, and the dentist hangs out a gold tooth; but up in the mountains of New Hampshire God almighty has hung out a sign to show that there He makes men.

Big Tings A Gwarn Up Ere

go to this page to try two new 6blocc albums, then please support the artist.

i've been here and there, keeping busy, people coming back and going, plenty of relaxing alternating with aspirations and intermittent accomplishments.

hung out with roommates and a couple friends last night then went to ben s.'s place to watch sox and eat nasty allston village pizza, couple laughs...

gotta find some better photos, gotta put in work. get new glasses, spend time on the imac at home, get a new keyboard, transfer music (i've been steadily downloading and deleting off this hard drive for way too long now)

going up to dartmouth sept 26-28 for a crew reunion thingie, should be fun.

nice weather, nice and cool. good weather for sitting inside and listening to new dubstep :)

still able to dunk the ball, should go outside and do some more exercises in my shaq dunkmans, get hops, crush

reading books, really enjoying them, i want to devour all these books, not enough time. i want hours for listening to music, watching movies and tv, reading books, how to cram everything into 16 hours? how to work and socialize and eat and do all this stuff? keep moving

but jeff, writing is so HARD and requires so much ATTENTION







but jeff, writing is so HARD and requires so much ATTENTION

attention is something i have in minor AMOUNTS. i do not have it in SPADES, i have it in minor QUANTITIES. it's a scarce resource, plentiful in other regions but in high demand HERE
