Update, Schlupdate

Phlllaabbbttt.
I just farted with my mouth.
Blah, blah, blah – Here’s what’s going on lately:

- Mo and I are still getting married.  The date will definitely be September 21st in Michigan – It’ll be a brunch wedding.  Our announcement website will be up and running soon so you can get all the dirt.

- I got my oil changed yesterday and bided my wait time by reading this Vanity Fair article about Furries and Plushies.  Fascinating and disturbing…  And if anyone is interested in experimenting, I’m down.

- In revisiting older posts, both Yacht Rock and You Suck At Photoshop have new installments.  Go ahead.  Go watch.  I’ll still be here when you get back.

- I’m looking forward to this weekend’s birthday bash for Eric in Palm Springs.  Maybe I’ll have some photos to put up after the weekend.

- Also looking forward to Christine moving *quite a bit* closer than Chicago later this month.  Monthly trips between LA, Vegas and Phoenix for all of us…

- Movies that I’ve dug recently: ’Gone Baby Gone’, ’Wristcutters: A Love Story’, ’Hollywoodland’, ’The Last King Of Scotland’, the part of ’Sicko’ that I watched and ’The Darjeeling Limited’.

- Has anyone seen ’Sunshine’, ’Michael Clayton’, ’The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford’, ’Death At A Funeral’, ’Southland Tales’ or ’Into The Wild’ and had a strong opinion either way about them?  (I’m looking in your direction, Mr. Powell)

- Things that I hate:  The car commercial with the guy setting of the car alarm to freak out the couple looking at his recent purchase at the dealership.  As if I don’t hear enough car alarms…

- I think that I’ve retired MP3hursday…  The download ratio dwindled to a trickle each week.  Either the quality of the posts went down or y’all ran out of room on your iPods.  Either way, unless I get an overwhelming (or just plain whelming) response otherwise, I’ll be shopping for a headstone for the “feature”.

- And for all you JOT junkies out there:
- We’re heading to South Carolina two weeks from today to perform for USC Upstate and the six-college College Town celebration.  They’re flying us out, putting us up and letting us jam out for a few hours – Not too shabby.  Does anybody know anything about Spartanburg, SC?
- We’ll soon have new t-shirts, buttons and keychain bottle openers as swag.  Does anyone have any other, nifty ideas for promotional items?
- Every time we get in the rehearsal studio, it seems like we’re working on yet another new song.  We’ve got about a dozen really good starts – We’ll probably be recording this summer.

That’s about it.  Your participation in this Phlog would be greatly appreciated.  Between then and now, I’ll leave you with this thought:
