Pretty good thanks! But the skin needs to grow back. It's a bit like a small burning wound.

I call it a war injury.

A very dumb one. Entirely my own fault.

After buying concert tickets at some point last year I got a free subscription to Rolling Stone magazine. It was only supposed to last three months, but they kept sending me issues each week for about a year, accompanied by cards saying, "don't let the issues stop, renew now, pretty please," or the like. I never did, even though it was dirt cheap, because it seemed to me that RS had lost touch with the national consciousness. From putting laughably unhip teen stars on the cover to its six-months-too-late coverage to its "every album gets at least three stars" critical reviews, RS certainly was no longer the cultural force I remembered from my youth. But I had no idea just how out of touch RS really was until today. Putting the Boston bomber on the cover might be the dumbest, lamest attempt to regain publicity and relevance I've ever seen. Forget that it's horribly insensitive -- as I taught my six-year-old, "no duh." It's also stupid. People aren't going to buy that issue on newsstands and a lot of people are boycotting the magazine and cancelling their subscriptions. Wow, did RS misread its audience. I guess there really IS such a thing as bad PR. "New Coke" may have been a better business decision than this -- which is saying something. (For those of you born before 1985, just Google it.)

I got the free subscription too last year because of Maiden tickets. Agreed about the new cover, insanely low even for them. I thought it was a joke when I first read about it.

I hate lying in bed sick.

Hope you feel better soon. Getting sick during the summer time seems unnatural.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

I hope you feel better soon as well Perun!

I only get sick during Summer. One of the reasons I despise it.

Get well soon Perun!

 

[Brigantium]

Get well soon, Perun, (and also Foro, whatever you've done your wrist)

I don't blame you. That really has to suck.

So, I ran into a Bosnian restaurant today ... a first ... food as really good. Also went to Fort Stevens, one of the very few places the mainland US was attacked directly during WWII anf Fort Clatsop, the last place the Lewis and Clark expedition camped at before returning towards civilization

I'd like to get drunk at work. I think that would be fun.

I went to school on Acid once, that was interesting.

 

[Mosh]

That sounds like a fun story

 

[bearfan]

The odd thing is no one noticed ... it was both the shortest and longest day in my life.

 

[Moon Child]

I can't even begin to imagine how that was...

 

[bearfan]

That will show you how much I cared about High School

 

[Travis The Dragon]

I haven't tripped in a few years now. All of mine have been good ones so far.

 

[bearfan]

It has been about 20+ for me. I do not do any drugs in a really long time .. but that is the one I would do again. But I do not know where to get it and am not really interested in going around asking.

I did the same thing on my mid-term in English once.

 

[LooseCannon]

I have never done any drugs.
