Ten minute update

Ive been having trouble finding the time to update this, which is a good thing. I'm getting a haircut soon so lets see how much recapping i can do in the proceeding 10 minutes.

Recently i have been working a lot, but really good hours. Mainly 9-5 or 8-4, but i can leave early once my work is done, which leaves me plenty of daylight to frolic around in. I went to the bethpage historical village with Meghan and Lauren, although it was closed, they let us in anyway. That was probably the highlight of the past week. All of the houses were locked up but i climbed in through a basement door and found a skeleton key, so we got to explore rooms that you are not normally allowed to go in. Also we saw a pig who has GIANT testicles, some baby lambs (so cute) and a few fornicating cows.

The bottom picture is of a authentic Abrham Lincon campaign poster


My sister graduated college so i spent some time in Vermont before and after the ceremony. Vermont sucks, i got some cigars, pictures of myself taken at K-mart, and climbed a hotel building. Fuck Vermont.

I also got an iPhone, which is by far the best of my recent purchases. I feel a lot more organized now that i have it, and when people call me it will actually go through to my phone, which is the main reason i cancelled my contract with T-mobile.

I went to verses last show Friday with Larry and Johnny. We sat in 2 hours of traffic on interstate 95 but still got there in time to see all the bands i wanted to see. Shipwreck played a new song that was insanely heavy. Verse breaking up sucks, but I'm glad i got to see them one last time.



I also had a few dreams in which cantos was the protagonist. The two that are most memorable were the one where i sung third eye blind to her, and the one where i was an army general and said to my troops "WE MUST DESTROY CANTOS BEFORE CANTOS DESTROYS US"
I should really have left like 5 minutes ago. whoooopssss.

Check a bitch out



(sorry its hard to read, just read it from right to left)


Life has been awesome as of lately. I recently found out that i won another sales contest through my job, and will be going back to California this summer. The brand that is sending me is called "RVCA" which is awesome because this is the first time i will be going to a headquarters for a company that i actually wear. The outline of the trip says that i will be taking a tour of the RVCA headquarters, Skating with the RVCA team on their private mini ramp (Ed Templeton and Leo Romero both skate for RVCA), Surf with Alex Knost, and Jam with Matt Costa and a special guest. Ill probably be going around august, but as for now i don't know anything.


Tons of other fun stuff has been going on. I have been a little to busy to update this, so ill give you a quick list of things that i have been doing before i go downstairs and wake up Keith.

-Went to the Bronx zoo

-Hung out in Brooklyn a few times

-Played 2 very intense games of kickball

-Played one not intense game of kickball

-Got this statue:

-Went to the aquarium

-Sold a massive amount of clothing on eBay

-Went to Biancos to see Lindsey Jennings, but instead saw a horror movie victim (ask me about this, it was crazy)

-Pat cut off a chunk of his finger

-Got new shoes:

-Walked around Port Jeff

-Realized how good i am at climbing things (seriously)

-Learned a few new songs on the Ukulele

-Went to the MET with Rob Fiacco and Keith

-Saw a band i really like

-Bought their records:

I know I'm forgetting things, but as for now that's all you get. In a few days i will be getting a iPhone, so that's something to look forward to. Ill be in Vermont Friday through Sunday because my sister is graduating college, so maybe something cool will happen there.

For Patrick (Jupiter Napex)



Every wednesday i spend my day in brooklyn, usually with Fiacco, Pat, Kyla, and this time Justin and Jamie came along. Our days are spent going to the zoo, getting food, and going to parks/stores/other places. Its always fun, but i dont really want to tell you the story about what i did that day. Insted i would like you to go to www.patrickglass.blogspot.com read about his new comic entitled "Jupiter Napex". I got to see it first hand, and it looks awesome. It is hand silkscreened using a 4 color process and contains all sorts of other cool artistic comic book things that i don't even understand. I have yet to find out when it will be released to the public, but when it is you should go out and find a copy of it. I was honestly blown away at how good of a job he did, the prints came out so clean, and the color scheme and illustration looked amazing. So congrats to Pat, and phooey on everyone else you scheming nerds.

STZ


I feel like a lot of people forgot about Sabertooth Zombie, or just got caught up in the hype because they had a tie-dye shirt for sale when they played Long Island. Either way, they have new tracks posted, and a new cd coming out May 26th. The tracks are killer, do yourself a favor and listen to them here
