gotta admit, I love it when doctors tell people they're gonna die but they're like "nah, i'm not feeling that" and end up surviving anyway
there was a kid that went to my highschool who had cancer and they said "you won't make to thanksgiving" but he did, then they said "you won't make it to christmas" and yet again, he did. All the while he was getting worse and worse, but surviving. Then they said, "okay we don't really have a time frame for you but are definitely going to die really soon and there's nothing you can do about it."
So he gave up, started partying his ass off (in a wheelchair), and smoking a shitload of weed.
six months later he was cancer free

That really was a great post. I'm definitely a fan of good things like that too.
JD, I'm sorry to hear of it. It seems pretty clear the way you spoke of him that you cared for him a lot, which says a lot about him as a person. The best to your family.
This weekend was pretty fucking rad for me. Had a show in Berkeley, we played at somebody's birthday party. Went pretty alright. This morning Kabir and I took two hours and wrote an entire song which we're pretty proud of. We recorded a pretty nice-sounding draft of it on his iPhone, which is now officially my new favorite tool for recording shit on the fly. I keep listening over and over, which has never happened before for me. It's a pretty major breakthrough, for me to collaborate with somebody on that level and to even have something I'm proud of as much as I am of this. Posting it in the 'talk about yr own music' thread in BAND.
Zingoleb:
Sorry to hear about that JD.
As for me, I ended up seeing Voltaire and Rasputina. Met Voltaire, bought a CD he signed, and ended up at a drag club watching a black midget drag queen while dancing with a guy that looked like Adam Lambert.
His name is Stefan.
A Wet Helmet:
So despite fairly regular moaning about how growing older sucks and the less frequent but equally vehement bitching about selling out my dreams to be responsible, there are upsides! I am, at this moment, sitting in the lobby of the Ritz-Carlton in Ft Lauderdale watching a never ending stream of mostly attractive women in bathing suits go by. I have a great room, am eating fantastic food, andam expected to stay drunk for the week. Best of all, it's not only paid for, but I'm getting paid to do it. Hooray being an old corporate sell out.
Tom:
Dad is home sick with a chest infection and general man cold. He just come into my room to let me know he's staying home with his phone. He then walks off with it and comes back a few seconds later to ask me if he left it in here. We then found it next to his computer. He's so terrifically addled.
