Mates of State Tonight
The MOS are here in Brooklyn and are playing at North Six. Wow. I don't really have any other information, except for this. Let's go see them!
(shout out to mrs robot for paying attention and finding this)
This was on the MOS message board. For some reason I find it funny
Let us welcome them with a grand celebration of love. We shall clap with our hands and whistle with our lips. We shall sing along and be merry.
You shall see us in Brooklyn.
MPG of the Week
Yea, I have been in a slump in terms of making new mpgs of the week. The new one is a guy dressed as a leprechaun, who was dancing in front of an apartment complex - apparently to drum up new residents. It was totally weird.
My brother reported that they had a guy dressed as Uncle Sam right after 9/11, who was waving in front of a sign that said, "Uncle Sam wants YOU to live at Deer Fart Run" (or whatever the apartment's name was).
My dad: Geetar
My father played the guitar last weekend. What the hell? He played it as a teen, but I don't think he has played ever since. If you knew him, you'd be like, "WTF"?
Jesus
The kid who is about to tackle Jesus - what is he thinking? Um, kid, bad idea. Don't tackle the Jesus guy. He's the freshmaker, you know.
SushiNYC
Late night. Augh. We are working on our first (and probably only) print ad - it's for Heeb Magazine. Somehow, no matter how well you plan, you end up at 2:24am drinking bourbon and IM'ing Taiwai. Oh well.
Thx Jo!
Damn Teens
I forgot to mention this, but on my way to the airport last week, there was some sort of teen riot on my street. Everyday at 3pm the school up the street lets out and the streets become clogged with teens walking to the subway. Well, last Friday they decided to riot (aka 'retard riot'). I left my apartment to get some cash out of the ATM and from my apartment door I could tell 'shit was up', and when I turned the corner I could see a huge crowd of teens all running and yelling and fighting. Damn teens. I mean, we are probably talking a few hundred, easily.
God I hate the teens.
The corner store guy told me a bunch of people (other teens) got stabbed by fellow teens. When I left the ATM place (swelling with cash, and feeling that this was a bad time to of left an ATM), the cops came swooping in.
Theme restaurants
I had journal or weekly poll or something about names for sports bars I wanted to open. They included the classic Datey McRapies and Pleaty McChinos. My brother and his girlie have come up with a good theme restaurant name: Scotter McGillicutty's. They would be known for their famous 'Scooter Shooters'.
Clinton Street Honkus
You might of seen this in the NYT already, but there is this guy who lives near us who is posting haikus on lamp posts about the traffic on his street. Fun stuff. He was interviewed on WNYC's The-Next-Big-Stuidio-360.

honking in front of my house

Joke of the Year
Here's one that David Willems once told me:
What's brown and sticky?
Answer: A stick.
