Robin Williams Live on Broadway

Hey, if your parents let you, or if they don't, get Robin Williams Live on Broadway from the video store. Real funny. Lots of swearing though, don't see a problem in that, do you?
An excerpt:
Here's my idea for a sport. I knock a ball into a gopher hole.
Oh, you mean like pool!
F*** pool! Not with a straight stick, with a little f****d up stick.
Oh, like croquet!
F*** croquet! I'll put the hole hundreds of yards away!
Oh, like bowling!
F*** no! Not straight, I'll put s*** in the way, like trees, bushes and
high grass so you lose your ball then you go whacking away at it with a f****n
tire iron! You feel like you're gonna have a f****n stroke! Oh! That's
what I'll call it! A stroke! 'Cause every time you miss you feel like
you're gonna f****n die! Oh! This is brilliant! This is f****n brill---
I'll put a flat piece of land at the end with a little flag to give you f****n
hope; but I'll put a pool and a sandbox so it'll f*** up your ball again!
Then you're whacking away at it in the sand!
And you do this one time?
F*** no! Eighteen f****n times!


If you're not laughing, I am. Hard.

Anyway... see yah.

Back from vacation

Back from vacation.... and what a drag.

1 week ago I got back.

1 week ago we were driving 20 hours from Tofino, B.C to Calgary.

1 day ago, my favourite band "The Weakerthans" played in Calgary and I missed them!

I feel like such a loser....

That is all, carry on with your life.

Every great journey begins with one step

Never again. Never again will I set up that stupid dance. I left art, my favourite class this semester at break, to set up a band that, when compared with the band "Disinformation" at the valentines dance, sucked. I hated what "Riff" played, how they presented themselves. Oh, wait! A) They couldn't play and B) They didn't present themselves! Nico kept looking at the drummer, thus his @$$ was to the audience. That's nice, but not when performing. Go to a nightclub to do that. Stupid. Anyways... I couldn't stand their music- "Smoke on the water" is not a difficult song to play, anyone with a brainstem can figure it out- and they couldn't hype up the crowd enough. BTW: To play "Smoke":

And there you have it. All on one line. Even "Smells Like Teen Spirit" takes up 4 lines, depending on how you notate it.
