Pop Quiz Hotshot

This girl at work threw me under the bus with a few things I did wrong. So I called her dennis hopper and changed her name on the board. She didn't get it for a while. I felt like keaunu under a greyhound at 65 MPH.

Yo necessita ayudo Senor Jesus

Spotted at the wawa in Mays Landing. I laughed.

Jay Hill

Went to visit jay. He's the only person I know that could be stuck in a hospital bed for a week, and make me laugh the whole time and make me feel at home. It felt like we were both just hanging out in my driveway. Hope your feeling better my dude.

Quote from Rich

"how about this..i'm gonna go take a piss and if by the time I'm back if there isn't ice i'm gonna flip the entertainment center"

Tried to spell out my initials on the beach. Had to improvise.

Necessary Grafitti Pt. II

This should also be in every town. Spotted years ago in Philadelph. Poop Dick should have been one of the hottest up and coming graff writers, but seems to be under the radar. He is an underground graff sensation.

Dream Dog

American Bulldog. want one badly. We got to dogsit this awesome guy a few months ago and he was the best. I really do want one oneday.

Sweet Ride

This was actually really funny. One of the employees at my job loved his vehicle. Loved it, would marry it if possible and have a honeymoon at a garage and have romantic tune ups. Anyway, one day they distracted him while other co-workers shrink wrapped the entire car and put a for sale sign up. The sign only said it was 1700 or something extremely reasonable, but believable. They didn't tell him, and he immediately recieved several calls about buying it, and eventually went out and found it. I laughed it was funny.

Fun Times

Summer I will miss you. Now its time for frigid mornings and uncle buck hats.

Necessary Graffiti

Classic. Every town should have at least one kid ripping through the streets putting one of these up. Spotted on the way to penn. good to know the tri-state still knows how to party while headbanging with krylon.

"Jesus Piss" Amp Lemonde (aka urine of the gods)

So good. And for a while, it would actually work. I would get hyped up like a 13 year old kid with the new fat wreck catalog.

I am addicted to caffeine in a gnarly way, but this drink is delicious. Mike Murro approved. <3

Goodbye For Now Old Friend

Its about that time of the year where shore things fades away. I'll miss you and your smell of hermtit crabs and sassy bumper stickers.

Great dude, great lunch. yum

Hedz Up : Platinum Jawnz

Im starting a rap squad that wears platinum skull masks. Not really, but this great mask is avaialble at a big lots near you. and it makes sense.

New Hours

Jay I know you wake up at 4 am or something outrageous, but I work in retail. Driving to work when it is still dark out is most non-triumphant for me.

I have all new cheap moves...

Hey Dude, wanna wash your hands at the Wawa in wildwood? Hope you like washing your hands with the negative charged pink slime from ghostbusters. It is conviently stored in this squeeze style ketchup bottle. Don't be a jerk though, or else your hands will be possessed by Vigo the Carpathian.

Street Candy

We went out to eat the other day and this righteous assortment of candy was left in the street. What a kind and delicious gesture.

Jay got me a radical b-day gift, art still has a radical microkorg

thanks again dude

Chris's New Shirt

Attn Joel

Today I almost went blind

Seriously, not like the Korn song where its metaphorical and everyone has wicked braids while head banging. Interesting secret of the business of cell phones is that transferring your phone book is not so easy, and dangerous.

I see no fear, I fear nothing, And as of 3:30pm I saw literally nothing. I was using contact cleaner to clean out a customers charging port which was covered in corrosion. The nozzle was broken, and it sprayed literally directly into my eye. It was painful and I went blind in my eye for an hour or so.

This post sucks, but getting shot in the face with a contained mid-level canned poison sucks too. Oh well FTW.


Oh fuck, you mean you can't clean out your eyes with this product? It feels like flaming death sucker punched me. Get behind me satan.

Pray For Me (Jason Jessee) and HOSOI

Joel got me both movies and checked it out last night. It is hands down one of the best, and my new favorite skateboard doc. movie. It really is crazy how gator's life was wrecked, jessee almost lost it all, and hosoi got into meth for almost a decade. It is amazing to watch great talents and anti-heroes like this walk the line of greatness, which is a thin line between genius and insanity. Hosoi and Gator were the flashy, celebrity status guys that had so much flair and confidence. Jessee was just a natural born trainwreck that was fearless and made it look more grimey and honest. The jason jessee movie is hands down my favorite. He is by far the most interesting person outside of skateboarding. His character celebrates all the outrageous imperfections of human nature rather then hide them, and makes you just want to destroy every single day. Thanks Joel

Don't Cross the Streams ( MT. DEW content )

Mt. dew is obviously the piss of the gods. In every commercial for gnarly lifestyle drinks, the drink must be "slammed." This is where you hold the drink about a foot away from your mouth and just pour it into your mouth. If the can or bottle touches your lips, you are not extreme. The longer and more visible your soda stream, the more extreme you are, and the longer your dong is as well.

That being consecutive dews were slammed. Streams were as long as road maps to a new hell on earth where we bled caffeine. Once cameras were introduced, we got dew up our noses and looked like assholes.

This is in my top five records of all time. I have been looking for the first pressing of this for years and it finally found me. Along with the signatures of 3 of the 5 members who recorded it.

IN LOVE

She's the unsung hero of flight of the conchords. Her stand up is funny, and she seems radical. She performs in brooklyn and all over new york, hopefully can see her one day. She surely is blowing up the scene and will continue to, and is a major trot nixon.

Best Dudes, Best Show

Can't stop watching Human Giant. Third time watching through the whole season. I love this interview skit, it makes me laugh every time.

Why Not.....

Even though I scream the ending 10 second vocal buildup and end slogan in peoples faces on the reg, its still never enough.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHANNON !

Boston Record Scores

Steve and I went to boston last month for one day. I bought some records and this amazing 8x10 black and white promo of Greg Ginn. I would photograph it, but it is so incredible it burns eyes and breaks cameras.

"Whats up, Nerds"

Fucked up with the ezra from vampire weekend. Covering BLITZ and DESCENDENTS. VW made the most listenable album available at K-Mart in some many years. And fucked up isn't sure if they are an Oi! or Hardcore band, but I am sure that they are the most fun and inspiring punk band in so many years. This is neat, I don't care.

Brian Mcgee and the Hollow Speed

Brian Mcgee of Plow United. He had been doing a solo country band for a while. Its an awesome transition to follow for Plow fans. There was definately hints of this coming in the later years of the band, and for him to dedicate a new project to it is really cool. This is great studio footage of the band.

Dust, Wind Dude (more cereal and keanu)

Bill and Ted Excellent Cereal :


I remember buying boxes of this at the store. At one point, it came with a plastic telephone booth cassette tape case to store cassettes.

Ghostbusters Cereal Commercial (attn jay)

Jay and I were talking on my birthday on many great subjects. The deaths in the twilight zone movie. The curse of poltergeist. And how every awesome movie or show eventually had its own cereal.

Day Seven Vacation

So I cannot just have my first pressing Necros, 180 GRM Faithfully Restored Coldplay and first pressing Citizens Arrest Records laying around! So, off to Target Dept. Store to purchase some additional racks for my expanding vinyl collection. On the way, I met up with my buddy rich. He just bought a really clean 70's Puegot bike and we rode to his girlfriends so he could get his haircut. She hated both our beards, so we told her we hate her pet reptiles. They frighten us. Then we high tailed it down tilton to our friend shawns video game store "LEVEL UP."

It honestly rules so hard. He has an outrageous collection of ATARI, NES , GENESIS AND newer games too. Im not much of a gamer dude but I love all the classic stuff bigtime. We played the NES on the store flatscreen and had a blast. One game stuck out in my mind called ZOMBIE NATION. Its a japanese game where you are a floating japanese head and shoot lazers out of your mouth all over the city. It has little to do with zombies but is very bizarre and fun and super rare. We played it for some time.




Awesome selection of Comics..



Real working SEGA DREAMCAST demo stand from the nineties. Awesome

Also, aftermarket Nintendo 8-BIT NES top loaders for sale for about $30-40, a great investment. One is hooked up as a working demo so you can play the games before you buy them. gnar.



I doubt you will see this many ATARI cartridges at one time anywhere in the state of new jersey. Very impressive.

ACTUAL GAMEPLAY FROM ZOMBIE NATION SEEN ABOVE..
The game very difficult, you are a japanese floating head shooting lasers out of your eyes and eating human beings. It does demand a higher skill level player to advance in levels though.

Day Five Vacation

Shore Style

The old crew reunited for the first time in 2 years. I told andrew today to write, "AS SEEN ON SHARK WEEK." on all the boogie boards with shark artwork on them. We laughed. It worked and people bought every one that had that written on it. Gnarly. You can never look a shark in the eyes.

Day Four Vacation

Today I woke up early and went to Bad Ass coffee with my friend cassie. It was really great, that place rules. I helped her with a giant yard sale she is having and then went home and worked on new words for jumpercable recording. A few a really like. Headed out to practice and downed tiger woods gatorade like it was my job. Usual sass on my behalf, like a young rock legend in training. The dudes put up with me, cause they are my best friends and have to. The song came out so awesome, and we kept on tracking on the next. Great day in shack lobster, we got a ton done and had some awesome laughs at jays various recoding stances and all the other great jokes we threw in there.

Day Three Vacation

Rich and his lady came down for an early morning bike ride in glorious ocean city. We hit the streets early in the am. First stop, express pizza. My bike sounded like a torture device, so I made a pit stop for a WD40 pen. Seemed like an excellent idea at the time. Only problemo, was I much have done such a gnar job that later on in the day my bike would thank me in its own unique way.

Got the pizza, which ruled. PS - it was definately the hottest day of the summer, and a daring choice of a day to ride but oh well. My brother ducked off to go to work. The three of us then rode a total of 13 miles or so from one end of the island to the next.



When we got to the end of the island, we took our bikes onto the jetty so know one would lift our sweet rides. It was a true display of young rebellion. It was worth it, took some gnarly pictures and pretended I knew about photography.







So after taking in the view of a beautiful day on the jetty and walking around shirtless, we got ready to head back. Earlier in the day, the death rattle my bike was screaming went away. I was very joyous of this. However, not even 3 blocks on the way back my left crankarm entirely broke off my bike. Yep. Rich tried to tie his belt from my bike to his and tow me, but it broke. I just rode back like a weirdo with only one leg and my other dangling off like a drunk dude. On the way back some strange dad dude wanted to make small talk about bikes and I did for a few blocks.




After all was said and done, made it back home and chilled out to the max for a minute or two before jumpercable recording. Hung out and jammed on some new riffage and I sat around looking like a cranky hot dude, not hot like a young val kilmer, hot like a steamy pile of turd. The dudes sounded gnarly as usual and it was cool to hang with them as usual. I went to wawa, right in time to see the beginning of a crazy storm on its way in.
