Season tickets

Darren and I are looking to share season tickets for the Dodgers with a couple people this year. With the current dodger promotion, if you buy 2 season tickets, you get two free. We are looking to buying 2 season tickets(including 2 free so 4 total) at a price of a little over $150 each. 78 games in the nose bleed section. $3 a game.

Talk Sex With Sue Johansen...

Is the greatest television show in history. She just had a woman call in and tell the seventy year old host that her sexual partner likes her to dress up in "chicken and turkey costumes."

Best. Show. Ever.

i saw the magic numbers last night. they were so charming and fun and good. i bought their album today and am listening to it. it's good so far. i'm relaxing today. i watched bukowski, born into this, which i had seen in la when it came out and it took months on netflix, but i saw it again and i liked it too.

the thing i like about this city is that sometimes it's really easy. i just walk a block or to and i'm where i need to be...that of course is also about where i live, but it's just a nice place that i really love sometimes. sometimes it's very very beautiful. the trees are blooming.

i'm working with a department and our sale was thurday/friday. very cool. it was great. total: $1.6 million. there were a few surprises such as an 18th century bronze figure of Guanyin seated on a recumbent elephant that ended up selling for $85000. we also sold a pair of Regency bookcases for $54000 (see our website www.freemansauction.com). it was our best english and continental sale ever.

i hope everybody is doing good i don't have anything else to say.

Trey Parker and Matt Stone = Awesome

Like their show, the movies highlight both the pair's willingness to slaughter any and all sacred cows, and their seemingly libertarian politics, skewering both left and right. "People say, 'You rip on both sides and don't take a stand!' But that is our stance!" says Parker. "To me, comedy is a point of view. It's OK to take the middle ground."

And, of course, pissing people off remains the pair's top priority. "We've always been fuck-the-system punks," says Stone. "And the only way to be punk anymore is to go into a party and say, 'George Bush fucking rules!'"

This is dirty.

21 versus 21

I found this video titled 21 on YouTube last night. It reminded me of a hit song of the same name by a band we all know.

I wondered to myself what they would look like melded together in a 21-themed battle royale.



Now I don't wonder anymore.

The Last Nine Innings: Inside the Real Game Fans Never See

From Publishers Weekly

Ted Williams, who made baseball look easy, once remarked that it is actually the hardest game to play. Euchner shows just how difficult and complex this "kids' game" is, marshalling an impressive array of interviews with players, coaches, managers, umpires, former players, statisticians and broadcasters to describe the inner workings of the national pastime and the changing ways insiders and outsiders approach the game. He presents all of this via game seven of the 2001 World Series, an emotional contest played against the backdrop of 9/11 in which the Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the New York Yankees. Each play of this game provides a jumping-off point for a discussion of some aspect of 21st-century baseball: the thought processes that guide a pitcher as he decides what to throw, the split-second calculations that fielders make to track batted balls, or the thinking of the managers as the contest unfolds. Unfortunately, Euchner's approach makes the book read like a series of digressions, and the drama of the World Series game dissipates amid the author's extended ruminations and interviews (it takes three pages for the first pitch to reach the plate). Nevertheless, readers will come away from this book with a good overview of the trends driving the game today and renewed appreciation for just how tough a game baseball is.

Oh yeah, O'Brien and I went to this game. Jesse was planning to, but he decided to study instead.

I haven't been digging a lot of new music lately... yesterday I bought Belle and Sebastian's "The Life Pursuit", and it's FANTASTIC. If you haven't bought anything in a while- treat yourself to this gem, it's more enjoyable than a fresh bunch of parsley!

Hey Friends

First of all, I very happy belated birthday to Matt. I wish you all the best until next year, at which point I'll have to renew my wish.

Second, I'd like all you guys to send me your addresses along with your birthdays. Noone is excluded from this. If you post on the porch, then I want your address and birthday. (* I however, am prohibited by the Ukrainian government from sending alcohol.) Please send it to matt.miller@biola.edu. I don't know if posting it on here will get it spammed, but I don't care with that address.

Third, is there any chance I could get the latests releases sent to Ukraine? I'll make it up to whoever will do this favor for me.

I miss you guys and think about you often.

Las Vegas

Public Announcement:

I will be in Las Vegas March 21st through the 25th. My wife's birthday is the 21st. We are going with 3 of her friends and her friends tennis team. I think it will be like 12 chicks or something. So all you single dudes - well you can do the math. I will be the only guy. Please, Please, come hang out with me. I am begging. When I was last in LA I posted on here that I would be there and would hang out with any or all of you. Only O'Brien ponied up. So come one, come all and get debacherous with Grant. Preferably while the sun is shining.

Sexiest man alive????

I'm fairly certain. Indeed a birth worth having again.

Listen Up...

Matt and I are officially releasing our new albums on Saturday Night, April 1st in the old-fashioned style of a listening party. It shall be an event of un-foe-gettable proportions- the wine will be flowing, the women will be glowing, and the moon will be showing. All of you are invited. It will be at the Blakkbox Loft in Downtown LA.

Matt- Happy Birthday!

Poker Night deux...

Need to know what we want to do gentlemen. Just want a head count for Friday. If it's not going to happen then I'm more than willing to reschedule for the following weekend but I need to get a count to see where everyone's at. In case you're curious, I'm looking for a count. Any sort of count. Thank you.
