remember july 12

texhno Not so 24 these days. Need to catch up on things. Laundry soooths the swollen mind. My home made margs are coming along nicely but at steep price... last night I think my extra lemon tart back fired and cause it sent me upstairs half alseep. I've been making alterations to Vicki's original recipie, little this a little of that. I like the fresh fruit added at the last minute. I think i need to lay off the sour apple and let those natural flavors come through.

Rain rain rain this fireworks weekend. What has passed so far? Not much really, still winding down from the Exton Pepboys excursion. The mission was a success, camera rig worked perfectly. Troy's Palm V came in handy on times. Made me think of the days of EQ and tracking spawns. I think I can be decent cable puller guy too... long Rockwell arms good.

Exton was the town of no turns. No left here, no right there, it was pretty funny after awhile. The drive wasnt so bad either, least I didnt mind. The Dodge Durango is a nice truck, er suv.... I really liked the ride in it. Its one of the few suv's I've driven where I can really fit nicely in. That itself is a huge factor for me. Would i get one? Well its like this, now I know two cars I fit nicely in... heh. Heck in the Durango I can stretch out in the drivers seat and still have room. Thats amazing! I like the lines on the truck as well, and it moves well.. I dunno, never thought of myself as a truck guy, even though the Durango is more suv. Actually to me its more of a truck.

What else is happening? Mike is in HongKong, poof gone without a trace. I hope he likes it there. Send us some pics will ya. How much ya wanna bet he marries again to a beautiful asian princess? Yep, he lets go the japanese thing and trades in on John Woo special, a true asian babe. I thought about Mike the other day watching John Woo's Hard Boiled. Sure they shot up a few dozen people and all, thats Woo, but the cool drive thru the city.. which i have no idea what it was except the pull back shot of the lead dude in his covertible on the streets of whatever was most likely Hong Kong. Should be cool either way. Just dont get shot mike!
Actually SARS is probably more of a concern but maybe thats contained by now.

I made two brand spankin new cds today. The first one is called "jinn", its a collection of el mexica funk jazz ambient wave lengths like Kinky meets the Tango Safari Children... Kinky is quirky, and I blame dave. SafariDave turned me on to them awhile back. Its the lazy groovy pool party like music. No stress, some lyrics, easy lounge with a CornoaEXTRA! twist. SafariDave you say? You mean GatorDave right dan?

Out with the Gator in with the Safari. Dave have traded up his beat to hell car for a new jeep wrangler and traded his gator fame for Safari Sitters! He started a pet sitting biz. So far I hear its going well but keep that in mind folks, GatorDave, now SafariDave, is an offical legal and authorized pet sitter serving the greater columbus area.

texhno The second cd is called "texhnolyze", named after the new animated series from the makers of Serial Experiments Lain. Its a dark and strange anime that well with the new Junkie XL and Matrix flavored sounds ive come across lately. The first track "guardian angel" is the opening sequnce track for texhnolyze and is produced by Juno Reactor, one of the kings of flat out trance. Its sounds a bit retro even since this kind of trance is kinda never played that much any more. Its kinda quick. Heh. Still not so fast that is annoying. So we open with Juno Reactor, cut to Junkie Xl, and then spill into the Matrix Zion track I love so much, just a great song really, Fluke, good stuff. We stumble into Lamb which I've shyed away from for some reason, but a very good sound. I'm like that with music sometimes, stuff I know I'd like I dont play it, as if to give myself time to rediscover it.

So aside from work what else is happening? Hmmm I went to my 15 year highschool reunion the other day. So many folks, so married, so many kids. LOL. I guess I didnt take that bus yet. Still it was good to see everyone, er those i actually recognized. I started off my evening correctly and promtly ordered round after round of kamakazi's. Look I'm be required to remember these folks, i need to be in the proper state of mind. And ya know the drinks werent all that expensive. Strange really.. cause that was alot of shots.

Lets see all that time standing around watching people in auto parts stores wore off on me.. I actually bought car wax yesterday. Guess I need to work on my car.

Ok im trying hard to fill up this space so that the stuff over there >>>>> aligns correctly. I hope this worked.
