Running With Scissors

Sunday, May 07, 2006

It's been a little while since i said anything here. I'm sure my two readers have been waiting with baited breath. Sitting on pins and needles as it were. It's late and I can't sleep so i'll try and please the masses.

Well, i went rollerblading with my new blades today. They're really good and I can really fly. I've been used to my crappy bauers for so long that I didn't know how the other side lived. So, I went for about a half hour and I was getting weird looks towards the end. I thought it was just because I was shredding so much, leaving bikers, runners and fellow bladers in my wake. But I got to my car and took a quick look in the mirror and saw that it looked like I was foaming at the mouth. My lips were all white and it looked like I just had a seizure. I guess that's what those looks were for. I'll have to make sure I use my trusty chapstick next time.

I have a gripe today. It's long song titles and the crappy bands that use them. Case in point: pretty much all of Fall Out Boy's album 'under the cork tree' (eg. "Our lawyers made us change the name of this song so we wouldn't get sued"). And also their offspring - which sound remarkably alike sounding to fall out - Panic! at the Disco with their tune "The only difference between martydrom and suicide is press coverage". It should be "The only difference between you and a big steaming pile of dung is nothing". Try singing that chorus. I like a good short song title, say a word or two. Not this self-important bullshit. It just makes me hate them even more.

A new album I recently heard before it will be released this week was Snow Patrol's 'Eyes Open'. I was expecting big things as their first album was one of my favorites of last year. After one listen, I gotta say It's a little slow for my liking. It sounds like dude got dumped for cheating or something. Practically every song talks about the good times in the past (with his old woman). Try moving on, man, or get some counseling. Or just bang some groupies. That should get your mind off things. And it's a good thing the album title has 'Eyes' in it because I'm pretty sure he mentions eyes in every single song. It's kind of annoying. I'll have to give it another listen to come up with a final conclusion.

Don't ask me about the arrow. I couldn't get rid of it.


While you're at it, don't ask me about the oilers either.
Oh well, there's always tommorow.
