Good: Bought a car

Bad: Should probably get my license at some point huh

Also I got this shirt coming in the mail:

Also my desk area looks slightly less like a prison now

Hilarious moment of the week:

Had to do a thing for class about withholding myself from social media for two weeks. It was supposed to be a paper, but I was so used to doing projects for the class that I assumed my reflection on said lack of social media was supposed to be a project as well...so I made a full-blown visual novel, complete with music, art, and branching paths.

Whoops. Hopefully he takes it.

Mutherfucker you did not decide to Drive While Black without getting a license.

I did naht drive her, Mark! I did naht.

Well I did, but I had my permit and the mother unit was in the car.

Well carry on then. It sounded like you were talking about the Haitian bordello you visited without buying any condoms.

My bad. I was commenting on the chicken and egg situation. I never got my license because I didn't have a car. But I never got a car because I didn't have a license.

Eventually (and after getting some money) I said fuck it and bought the chicken wholesale.

I enjoy names with the word "car" in them. You know - Ricardo, Carmen - though my first car was Fernando.

Ricardo Montalban may be the best name ever. I used him and Tattoo in a series of posters for The New Green's final show in Michigan before I moved to NC. I can't find any of the final posters, but here's an early rough draft:

He was a bad ass. I miss playing live shows. A lot. Thanks for the jog down memory lane via your penchant for names with "car" in them.

Most hubskiers probably have no idea who he is or what this photo is from. lil and kleinbl00 -I'm betting you do. What an odd show that was.

I wanna say the old Ricardo Montalban sketches never showed up on the SNL 40th anniversary episode; I was disappointed.

One of my favorite songs by my good pal Tim Monger mentions Ricardo: http://timothymonger.bandcamp.com/track/crime-on-a-summer-day

Great tune, eh?

Weird enough to be a fun listen.

What so we're like the geezer squad or something?

thenewgreen  ·  3691 days ago  ·  link  ·  

HA. If so, I'm right there with ya pal. Not just age, but a certain type of person would recall this show, it's me thinking highly of you both... and recognizing that you're not 18.

I remember being totally excited to stop watching an episode of Fantasy Island because we were going to go see Ice Pirates. It was... kind of? worth it.

FUN FACT: JJ Abrams was asked to come up with a pitch on rebooting Fantasy Island, only "edgy." He came up with Lost. Eventually, they were supposed to stumble across Mr. Rourke, the resort, the whole nine yards... but they got halfway through writing Season 1 and decided they were better off without.
