-Would you like to see Gary’s Easter basket? He’s really interested in it. You should be too, because you’ll be seeing more of it soon. Promise.

-Wanna see the Beckett race? Come to Old World Village in Huntington Beach on April 30^th and get ready for the storm.

-Dave has been hindering the Bexican’s training a bit by letting the dog lick wine off of his fingers. That’s why we can’t have real babies. We’d turn into these people: http://www.wsoctv.com/news/8802196/detail.html

-Look how cute our little boozehound used to be.

-People are so stupid it’s insulting. That NOLA mayoral candidate removed the Disneyland trash can from her promotional image after everyone found out she wasn’t really posing in the French Quarter at all. She JUST removed the trash can! http://www.wonkette.com/politics/new-orleans/kimberly-williamson-butler-continues-to-astound-us-167923.php I just think it’s rad that the French Quarter at Disneyland is that realistic. Disneyland is cooler than your mom.

-Glad you’re back, Russell.  It's always nice to see pictures of your pets and your wife in various states of undress. http://web.mac.com/karatepants/iWeb/Karate%20Pants/Blog/Blog.html

-I hung out with a kid this weekend too. No afro, but she did totally rock the fuck out on her kid-sized guitar.

-I'm buddying up with her now because she'll probably be a huge rock star someday and I wanna be able to drop her name at the old folks home so I'll get extra pudding after dinner.

-Thanks to the NPR I know that today is the 100^th anniversary of the SF Earthquake in 1906. Once again, the NPR made something fairly boring into something ridiculously boring and then talked about it for about a thousand hours. http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/04/18/MNGP5IAU4K6.DTL

-Art show May 13^th. I’m just gonna keep mentioning that just like the NPR did with that fucking anniversary. Our art show may be boring, but it will have booze, which is better than any dumb ol’ earthquake.

-Let me introduce you to my new hero. http://iccoventry.icnetwork.co.uk/0100news/0150swarksnews/tm_objectid=16960149&method=full&siteid=50003&queueid=0&headline=barred-from-my-local----so-i-bought-it-name_page.html

-You’ll just be blazed by this middle class guy trying to express himself. Yeah, boyeeee! http://www.fazed.org/video/?id=269

-Clyde, get on that. I’m serious. Review it.

-Hahaha, cat army. http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2006-04/12/content_565926.htm

-I brought a shit ton of half priced Easter candy into the office and now I’m having a chocolate meltdown. Candy for breakfast probably isn’t the best idea, but it’s soooooooo yummy.

-Yeah, so this is pretty icky and weird. I realize that it’s for teaching, but… guh. http://www.gizmodo.com/gadgets/robots/noelles-having-a-baby-167962.php

-Russ sent this today because he thinks it looks all futuristic. http://www.gizmodo.com/gadgets/gadgets/uono-cocoon-coffin-167931.php I’ll give him that, but in the future people will be cryogenically frozen and shit. People will have life spans of over a hundred years, and when they finally pass they’ll have their ashes blasted into outer space.

-Seriously though, I want to be buried. I think being cremated is selfish and disrupts nature’s course of events. Being buried in a casket does, in a way, too. A dead body is supposed to decompose and nourish the earth. Compounds break down and feed the soil and animals feed off of decomposing flesh and bones. It’s a great cycle and humans have been trying to fuck it up since the dawn of time. Jerks. So yeah, I’ve instructed Dave to bury me as I am, no box or coffin, (i haven’t decided if i want any clothing on) in the ground with an avocado seed plunged into my chest cavity. One day a big ol’ tree will grow from my heart and you can all eat me.

-Scary. Fucking so gross and scary I think I might faint. Gross, scary, gross. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060418/od_uk_nm/oukoe_uk_japan_fish;_ylt=AkALSU0MLXNTpfWBdMPwW7is0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3NW1oMDRpBHNlYwM3NTc-

-Donny has tachycardia. WTF? Get well, Don-arino. Here, inform yourselves. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachycardia

-Donny is able to type, which is good. Wanna see what he and Dave have been chatting about? It’s so awesome.

at first i laughed because you're always sick from something. but then i stopped laughing because my heart hurts today and it's freaking me  out.

 -dave

To which Donny replied:

Ha!

What hurts? or how?  what kind of pain?  Is it from that little heart breaker of a dog you have?  You're a little heart breaker, You're a little heart breaker, aren't you?  Huh, you little heartbreaker.  I'm sorry I started talking to the dog.

That was funny. I even laughed out loud (LOL!). Then Dave responded:

that was funny. beckett sat, then stayed, then came. he thought he was so good he got a boner. i told him it wasn't that good. oh and i think we just got a bark? hm. that's not good. -dave

-Barking puppies are not good. The little guy can’t figure out how ot bark and I intend to keep it that way.

-Newsflash! MySpace is full of pedos and predators. http://wired.com/news/culture/0,70675-0.html?tw=wn_index_1 In other news, the sun is hot, cats meow and new research has proven that farts actually come out of your butthole.

-Speaking of... MySpace, Steve's playing at the Blue Moon in La Crescenta on Sunday night. I'll give you more details tomorrow. He does stand up comedy. Intriguing, no?

-Here are some neat things about LA, for all of you haters. http://www.neatorama.com/2006/04/18/four-neat-things-about-los-angeles
