KHUBS Radio And Hammers Of Misfortune
I can�t remember how I stumbled upon Hammers Of Misfortune, but I sure am glad I did. As far as purely creative metal goes, these guys (and gals) got it. I’m not quite sure how to define them � black metal, heavy goth, prog rock, theatrical fantasy, dark opera, celtic metal. Really, they are a [...]

Pitching Passion
Eight things I didn’t know before watching The Passion Of The Christ last night: 1. Jesus had a brother. I can’t beleive I didn’t know this. 2. The devil is a woman. I guess I kinda already knew this. 3. Somebody helped Jesus carry the cross. 4. Jesus stopped more than three times while carrying [...]

Seasons In The Abyss
I’ve been having serious computer problems at work for the last six months or so. This has seriously hampered my work efficiency. The main computer dudes are coming in to wipe out my entire hard drive. Tonight, after accidentally erasing an entire folder of personal crap, I’m trying to burn seven years worth non-work [...]

Burnt
I’m fried. Literally and figuratively. I went up to Winter Park for a ski/cook out. Spring skiing is the best for this. I had friends that reserved parking spots at the base of the mountain so we can ski down to our bbq spot. When I arrived a cop was guarding the “full-lot barricade” making [...]

White Noise
Back in highschool, me and my friend Les would often stand in the hallway near our lockers during passing period and stare out the door. We wouldn’t talk to each other. We were too busy listening and didn’t want to interrupt what we were hearing: the sound of 400 students gossiping, spilling books, taunting, laughing, [...]

Lost, Dropped & Cancelled
The last few days have been a bit of a bore. Mostly I’ve been trying to get rid of this nasty cold by lying on the couch, getting to bed early, and drinking lots of orange juice. It seems to be working and I think I’m rounding the corner to wellness. This week has been [...]

The Birth Of Saint Patrick
On the eighth day of March it was, some people say, That Saint Pathrick at midnight he first saw the day; While others declare ’twas the ninth he was born, And ’twas all a mistake between midnight and morn; For mistakes will occur in a hurry and shock, And some blam’d the babby—and some blam’d [...]

So Good It’s Sickening
Today I feel like complete ass. Head cold, tired, plugged up and runny at the same time. You know, The Goomba. I felt it coming on Friday. But the cold didn’t bother me too much then. I was at work till about 8:30 Friday night due to computer malfunctions in the morning. So after work, [...]

Before Midnight
I haven’t been to sleep before midnight in at least a week. I was up till 12:30 the night before last and last night I was up till 2:00 just wandering around my apartment putting different objects in different places. I’ve been busting my ass all week at work. I was in the office till [...]

Holes, Queens, & Posers
Have you guys seen Holes? It was kinda cute. I wouldn’t watch it again but it was pretty good for a childrens movie from Disney. I don’t normally like much of the stuff Disney puts out, particularly the animation (excluding Pixar’s films of course). But that is what I watched on Friday. Afterwards I was [...]

KHUBS Radio And Azure Ray
I saw Azure Ray for the first time by mistake. A few years Ago I was going went to see Bright Eyes play at the Paramount and Azure Ray opened up for them. I was so pleasently surprised by them that I ended up enjoying their performance more than the one I bought the ticket [...]

My Life Without Me
Last night I watched My Life Without Me (trailer can be found here). What a tearjerker that was. I was a sniffling mess for a while there. I can’t remember who recommend this movie to me, but they said my Big List reminded them of it. Anyway, thanks whoeveryouare, it was really enjoyable. I thought [...]
