A smattering

1) This past weekend Mrs. ACW and I went to the Demolition Derby in Arcadia again, and again it was super-awesome double-extraordinary. We saw two cars flip onto their roofs (both drivers were fine), half a dozen cars catch on fire, two-dozen (or more) blown tires, and about a million bone-crunching crashes. It is truly a fine life I live. Pictures and video tomorrow, hopefully.

2) I’ve been dealing with a bloody nose since about 7am. It starts and stops, but let me tell you, when you’re half-asleep on Monday morning and you’re shaving in the shower (by the way, I shave in the shower) and you sleepily look into the stainless steel shower mirror and see blood all over your face, you may start having a tiny little freak-out as you try to find where you must’ve sliced yourself open to bleed so profusely before you remember your nose has been bleeding. And the blood sort-of makes me look like a demented zombie-Santa Claus with a hunger for flesh, so at least I’ve got that going for me.

Anyway, I’ve got some wadded up tissue in my pocket, but I’m beginning to think I should just carry these around.

3) I got the new Cake CD this weekend, and I’ve been listening to it this morning, and it’s great if you’re a fan of the band. It’s got some pretty funky covers, and a couple of new/old songs (b-sides) that have that familiar Cake feel to them. One of the songs that took me by surprise is a cover of this. I hope you’ll forgive me when I explain that I had a tiny little orgasm when I heard it and wasn’t expecting to hear it. It’s a treat!

Best of all, Cake eschewed the studios for their album release so all the cash from the album goes directly to them and not to some cock-gobbling stuffed-suit record-company douchebag, and there’s not a whole bunch of anti-piracy bullshit all over the album. Get it record companies? I bought the fucking album! Why would you show all the piracy bullshit to the people who BUY THE ALBUMS? You must all be idiots.

Anyway, whatever. Shut-up. I’m awesome.
