  • Is this a first?

    ��

    The first online dating show? ���Blind Date Blog. This sounds a little bit too much like survivor meets those HORRIBLE late-night dating shows. The ones that if I see the first five minutes I can’t stop watching.

    Updated: The same guy has also done SurvivorBlog

  • SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21) – Week of April 11, 2002

    In my wanders on the Web, I came across a document titled, “Tech Support for Etch A Sketch.” Here’s an excerpt. “Question: My Etch A Sketch has a distorted display. What should I do? Answer: Pick it up and shake it. Q: Help! My Etch A Sketch has funny little lines all over the screen. A: Pick it up and shake it. Q: How do I delete a document on my Etch A Sketch? A: Pick it up and shake it. Q: How do I turn my Etch A Sketch off? A: Pick it up and shake it.” I’ve quoted extensively from this manual, Scorpio, because it provides all the advice you’ll need in dealing with your current dilemmas. The best answer to every question, starting with “How can you get your life back on track?” is: Pick it up and shake it.

    You know, it kind of feels like I’ve been doing that some these days.

    I think i got the order right. I haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet.

  • I love my friends

    First off, a big thanks (AGAIN) to my friends Jill and Bree. WIthout the two of them tonight would probably have been great, but I would have been coughing for at least an hour after I left (instead of about 10 minutes). Thanks also to Rachel, Mike Wilkins, Dave Skye, Blake, Susan, and everyone else who helped out tonight. Thanks to all my friends who came out.

    Tonight was lots of fun. I was so psyched. As with just about every set there are things I wish could have been tighter, but I’m so psyched that it went so well. I love spinning at the Phoenix Landing.

    Other hilites of the night include Steve Porter’s set, Dave Skye’s opening set (that had some really wacky tracks in it), the Phoenix Landing almost completely empty of smoke! What a concept!

    I’ll post the track list after I sleep.

  • New linkage

    I added a new blog to my blogrolling today. Pure, Unadulterated Psychobabble is a blog I ran into a few times lately. I commented on it today and got back a response from the author, so am trading links.

  • One last bit of BSP.

    Here’s the announcement for tonight:

    Tonight at the Phoenix Landing we’ve got two of Boston’s best DJs playing together. I think their respective styles complement eachothers extremely well and I expect the beats will be off the hook.

    STEVE PORTER – Known the world over for his original productions and DJ sets. Deep, funky, techy progressive. Receiving considerable support from the likes of Chris Fortier, Sasha & Digweed, & John Debo, and certainly among those leading the charge to put Boston on the map.

    GREGORY BLAKE – One of my personal favorite local DJs. Really knows how to start a fire on the dance floor. A motivating mix of tech house and deep progressive.

    PLEASE NOTE: We have a special request of all of our friends tonight. As you may or may not know, our friend Gregory is waiting for a new lung. However, until he gets one, he is stuck with his old lung and it is difficult for him to breathe. Smoke makes this even harder. So we’re asking everyone who goes to the Phoenix Landing tonight to NOT smoke! Our friend deserves to have a good time and spin his set without having to be uncomfortable. For some of you this may be a lot to ask, but we ask never the less because we know that the Phoenix Landing crowd is caring, understanding, and the best that this city has to offer. I hope you’ll all cooperate if you can. Granted we can’t keep strangers or everyone from smoking, but if even just our friends and the regulars try not to smoke for just a few hours, then it will help. We thank you in advance and there will be lots of gum/candy for you all to suck on instead.

    Thanks to Bree for initiating the Don’t Smoke for Greg campaign.

    Wednesdays at The Phoenix Landing

    House Music and Techno, as interpreted by

    Resident DJs CASEROC, SHALAKO, & DAVID SKYE

    I’m really psyched for tonight. And I’m really overwhelemed that they are asking people not to smoke for me. While the smoke bothers me, spinning is important enough for me to deal with it once in a while. And I would never ask anyone not to smoke just for me. Thanks again to all of you.

  • Too much time on someone’s hands

    Over on Kuro5hin, someone does an An In-Depth Analysis of the Cultural Ramifications Evidenced in the Power Girls.

    Bubbles rules. I just don’t agree with her as the blonde bimbo stereotype. She’s the child of the group, the youngest of the power girls (and she acts that way).
