First Anniversary today
Today is our first anniversary. We'll be at the Icehouse (what used to be the Echo Lounge) in the bar part hanging out after 7 pm tonight if anyone wants to drop by. | | Thursday, February 26th, 2009 | | 5:24 pm |

I just noticed that my buddy Fred Schnieder (a.k.a. Fred Crimson, a.k.a. Der Schneider, a.k.a. Grandpa Scorpion) has a Live Journal. He's doing his own puzzles so go check them out: http://grandpascorpion.livejournal.com/ I've know Fred since we were locker neighbors back in freshman year of high school (which was 1983 for those of you keeping score). Fred's actually where I get my undying love of prog-rock and noise. Fred's stream-of-consciousness antics have brought countless hours of joy to thousands of imaginary children, many of who had horrible birth defects like the inability to see the point of Andy Rooney or deep fry more then one turkey at a time. After high school, he spent time as a bridge token repairman before finally gaining the courage to follow his dream and becoming a programmer for a financial company. He now lives in Queens with his lovely wife, their dog, and the ghost of Chang Ki-Shek's nanny.

Rather disappointed
There's a man named Stan Romanek in Colorado who supposedly has a video showing an alien peeking into the window of his house, and the video is supposedly so incredible that it has convinced several people of the existence of aliens, including a local politician who's now trying to create an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission in Denver. Here's an interview with a Colorado Film School instructor who viewed the video and is now convinced it's real: http://www.rockymountainnews.com/news/2008/may/29/expert-says-ufo-tape-no-fake/So I love all this kind of stuff, and I'm excited to see the video thinking it's going to be all creepy and hard to figure out how it was done and what not. The film was leaked to the Internet (surprise! surprise!) and here it (supposedly) is: http://io9.com/5011935/denver-alien-video-++-revealedWhat happened to the film analyst's description of "...his eyes blink. His cheeks move. He turns his head side-to-side. This would be a very elaborate puppet." and the whole bit about how much a puppet like that would cost. I mean seriously. It looks like a Halloween mask on a styrofoam wig stand at the end of a broomstick. Man, I was hoping for creepy and I got what looks like a prank you'd pull on some already scared girls at a sleep over when you were in high school. Now granted, this might not even be the video, and just some kind of fake or prank, but I was kind of looking forward to seeing the video. Oh, well, maybe a different one will show up. | | Friday, May 9th, 2008 | | 7:43 am |
Observation For The Day
It's hard to get your chores for the day done with a horde of Mexicans tearing your roof apart. We're having the roof replaced and while they're tearing the old shingles off, the dogs are going batshit and running around the house. I got out of the hall bathroom at one point to be greeted by all three of them next to each other looking at me, all squished into the hall Murphy can barely navigate. I also love the irony that the pit bull with the bite record is the best behaved of the three in this situation. | | Monday, May 5th, 2008 | | 1:35 pm |
How could Joey Redner not know when he posted his list of the world's worst beers: http://www.tampabay.com/features/food/spirits/article478964.ecethat I wouldn't suddenly feel the urge to track them all down and sample their putrid goodness? How could he not know that simply printing this list was enough to make me send little beer gestapo to kick in some doors in on my tastebuds? Oh, Bootie U95 you shall yet be mine! PS: Unless I'm mistaken, Joey Redner is Joe Redner the guy who owns all the strip joints in Tampa and who was constantly harassed by the right-wing Christian nutjobs down there. | | Friday, March 28th, 2008 | | 11:36 am |

Happy Holidays From Your East Coast Doppleganger...
After several years of knowing of the existence of the other Stephen J. Paschoal in California, I finally remembered to send him a Christmas gift this year from his Amazon wishlist. Sadly, it wasn't Highlander on DVD (as he didn't have that listed), but it was a Leonard Cohen CD, so really you can't argue with the guy's tastes. It'll be interesting to see his reaction. | | Sunday, December 16th, 2007 | | 10:19 pm |
(New) Best Spam Ever!
So I get a spam message in my gmail account, and I shit you not, it says: You'll have a dick like Jesus, after taking this medicine. http://lahutch.com/A dick like Jesus, you say? Really? What exactly does that mean? | | Monday, November 5th, 2007 | | 2:30 pm |

Tucker? I hardly know her!
Back in the day when Reagan ruled the world and living in Rhode Island chaffed my psyche like an overly starched pair of undies, I dated a young lady by the name of Anastacia Kolb. Well, Stace's band will be playing at a little bar called The Stage Door in Tucker, GA on Wednesday, September 5th. I'll be attending and anyone who's interested should make the odyssean OTP journey and come check them out. The band is named America's Sweetheart and you can check them out here: http://www.myspace.com/americassweetheartnycOdd... the Stage Door is apparently a gay bar in Tucker. I didn't know there was a gay bar in Tucker. Go figure. But not only is it a gay bar in Tucker, it's a gay bar in Tucker with their own stable of drag queens aptly named the Stage Door Divas. So apparently, I could have entitled this post "I wanna take you to a gay bar!". Anyway, here's the bar's information: http://www.thestagedoor.biz/The address is can be found off the America's Sweetheart Myspace page or on the Stage Door's website. Oh, and this is the band that America's Sweetheart is playing with: http://www.myspace.com/12106875Pat (Stace's hubby) doesn't think that the Sons Of Sanchez realize this is a gay bar they're playing at... Man... This just gets better and better! Next update: It's apparently a free show. | | Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007 | | 4:58 pm |

Why Daniel Wester rocks
I've been assigned to do redesign work, and one of the components is an in-house application called Loki. Not knowing anything about the process, I AIMed Daniel. The following conversation ensued: ME (12:00:49 PM): Okay, so how do I run Loki on (server name)? DANIEL (12:01:26 PM): It's running DANIEL (12:01:35 PM): there's a 10a kick of it DANIEL (12:01:43 PM): if we need to get it kicked any other time -- pses ticket ME (12:02:30 PM): Okay ME (12:02:47 PM): I know nothing about Loki besides he was a god your ancestors worshiped. DANIEL (12:04:27 PM): ancestors? DANIEL (12:04:33 PM): still worshipping DANIEL (12:04:39 PM): where you think the templates came from? | | Wednesday, April 4th, 2007 | | 2:07 pm |
Melissa and I were discussing her day working at the groomers... Melissa (1:53:56 PM): we had two dogs cancel Stephen (1:54:18 PM): The dogs themselves called and canceled? Melissa (1:54:32 PM): they are impressive dogs Stephen (1:54:52 PM): "What's that, Lassie? Timmy fell down a well so you can't make it to your 2:30 appointment." Melissa (1:57:19 PM): what's that lassie? mommy's still drunk and can't drive you to the groomers? Melissa (1:57:31 PM): housewives crack me up | | Saturday, January 27th, 2007 | | 3:57 pm |
