Nassau Trip

Charles Bukowski

We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.

World Science Festival

You know that song, Don't Worry, Be Happy? This is that guy.

He plays the piano, trumpet, and audiences.

Mysterious

Does it bother anyone else that…

• There is a man who calls himself Mystery.
• He is taken seriously and rated as a top pickup artist.
• There are actually media outlets that rank pickup artists.
• He has started two businesses to teach his techniques.
• There exists some sort of pickup artist industry.
• He coins terms for his techniques that propagate through that industry.
• The word artist and industry have become looser than a wizard's sleeve.
• He gave his first college lecture at MIT.
• I learned most of this from a Wikipedia page.

• • …What
• • • The..

When we reach the city.

This Image Appears Photoshopped

Photoshop is overpriced, Paint.net is the bee's knees.

I use it to make simple logos and resize photos for content, but I mess around with it too.

I challenge anyone to find something worthwhile in the people of England.

Until then I will stay far, far away. I suggest you do the same.

Inflation.us – NIA Scam

I wrote about getting my domain, Inflation.us, stolen several months ago. There is no chance of me getting it back as long as it is registered at Register.com – The worst registrar I have ever dealt with.

Turns out the person who stole it sold it to a a group of guys that are now using it to scam people. They use a newsletter to "Pump and Dump" their worthless stocks, like spammers do with email.

Justin Faith called me last week thinking I was involved because the domain is still in my name, but I cleared up my, or lack of my, involvement. He's made a video explaining what is going on, I've embedded it below.

The stolen domain bit is an after thought, but the video has gotten 5,000 views in a few days so hopefully this will get to Register.com and I can get my freakin' domain back.

Umass Spring Concert

I just got back from the 2009 Spring Concert and Girl Talk is really freakin' good. There was a real shit comedian who was out done by all the performers between songs and booed the whole time. I'd be pretty embarrassed if I was that guy.

Had to create a legitimate ad campaign to get two friends tickets to the sold out concert, but the place wasn't really full and I spent most of my time watching the security bounce people from the floor.

All Time Low was really good at working the crowd and after they went off stage the comedian tried to change his routine to copy the stuff that All Time Low used between songs. Girl Talk was the highlight for me. It's like he plays one nonstop always changing song and he goes crazy while he plays it. Lupe Fiasco was alright, I'm not familiar with his music and couldn't understand him most of the time, but he had strobe lights that were pretty interesting.
