words of my neighborhood
given to grumbly growling
and big happy grins.

eclectic personal ramblings
unchecked verbosity
ruminations and pondering

why does the sock monkey love it so?

It seemed somehow that politicians were very important. And yet, anything seemed important about them except their politics.

weekend plans...


If they are good enough for me, maybe they are good enough for you, no?

Tonight - see Mr. Sinus Theater 3000 provide comical commentary on The Karate Kid.

For all of the non-MST3Kers, once upon a time there was a show called Mystery Science Theater 3000 on American and Canadian TV, which showed bad movies and had a guy and his robot-puppet friends making fun of the movies.

For all of the non-Austinites, a local theater called the Alamo Drafthouse has continued the tradition by showing a series of bad movies with 3 local comics providing the live commentary and other hilarious mayhem.

Karate Kid should give them plenty of comic fodder. All that "wax on, wax off" stuff just begs to be exploited for cheap sexual humor.

Tomorrow Night - Take in the latest play by The Bedlam Faction, Romulus. They are a lot of fun, and very witty. I light-designed their last production.

Go see Romulus! Go!

If you don't live in Austin, well, it's your loss.

Sunday Night - Go see the premiere of Plow Monday's new music video, followed by a live performance by the band.

If you are the sort of person who likes alt-rock in principle, but wishes all these alt-rock bands (@#%&! Creed) would get some originality and sound like themselves, then you might like Plow Monday.

I'm generally more of an indie-head, and dislike most of that Systemofacreedcubus stuff with a passion, but these guys are really energetic and melodic, with a lot of diverse sounds, and they rock in live performance.

So...those are the highlights. If you're a friend of mine and have been thinking we don't hang out enough, or if you're a lovelorn stalker I've never met, then hey! Now you know where to find me.
