December 2008
The other night, I somehow managed to bring a girl home from the bar. We were hanging out in my room and I told her I would put on some sweet music to listen to.
She watched me as I opened up iTunes and saw one of my playlists entitled “9th Grade Make-Out Jamz”. She said, “Awww, are those the songs you made out to in 9th grade?”
I said, “No, those are the songs...
“Hey Gus, do you even know where we’re going?”
“Ohhhhh pickle shoes, sure I do. We’re going to Afghanistan. [pots banging] Old Gus dosen’t know about book readin’, or how to eat in a fancy resturaunt, but he sure as heck isn’t dumb! aw heck, i’ve been called dirty, lazy, smelly, shifty, cooky, spooky, and chinese but one thing i ain’t never been called is dumb!”...
Do Not Taunt Chris Paul →
Chris Paul was having an off shooting night (2-8 from the floor) until a lone Pacers fan sitting close to the scorer’s table set a fire under CP as he was about to check in at the end of the game.
“Without thinking, I murmured, “CP ain’t shit.” He quickly turned around and said, “What?” High off the fact that he even acknowledged me, I said, “Yeah, you’re lucky T.J.’s (Ford) not...
Even though I have only spoken to about eight of you lovely Tumblrs in real life (and another ten via email), pretty much everybody on here seems nice and fun. As such, I am putting this out there: my roommates, our dog included, are having a New Years Eve party. Bars are always too crowded and annoying. Last year, we went to see G. Love on NYE and that was fun, but there isn’t anything...

“Mickey looks and acts like a washed-up wrestler. He nails every mortifying moment, like the scene in which The Ram, waiting for fans at a depressing sports memorabilia show, glances around the room at the other pathetic ex-wrestlers and sees a little too much of himself in each of them. Or the scene in which doctors pull thumbtacks and staples out of his back after a vicious...
I just drove back to NYC from State College and there was car on I-80 going well below the speed limit. I got frustrated and I yelled, “Learn to drive!” as I passed him by.
He pointed to the “Student Driver” sign on the roof of the car and said, “I am!”
see here, someone help me get into jazz
sweetsweetcaroline:
i made a huge decision tonight. i’m ready to take the steps involved in really getting into jazz.
any help?
There are some good standards that are very well-known like Dave Brubeck - Time Out, Miles Davis - Kind of Blue and John Coltrane - Giant Steps. However, I would also recommend the following to start out a jazz collection:
All of the Miles Davis Quintet Series -...
All the ladies that have been strolling through my dashboard via the new hottoddy site are absolutely exploding my mind grapes right now.
However, I still feel weird about clicking that “like” button on the ones that really set my heart a-racing. It seems so superficial, but…damn it, so many of those girls are so cute!
Christmas day James Bond marathon while we open presents? Yes, please.
To all you Tumblrs and non-Tumblrs alike who sent me email or text congratulations on the job, thanks!! Even if it was as simple as just clicking the “like” button, it is all appreciated so very much. You guys rule!
Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukkah everybody. Going to bed now, cause Santa won’t come to the house til I fall asleep!
NORAD Santa Tracker →
arod:
My ten year old brother still believes, and all evening we’ve been checking up on this!
Yup, we used to do the same, except it wasn’t NORAD. I think it was just the local PIttsburgh channel’s weather guy. Still, it was pretty exciting!
J-O-B!
A Christmas miracle! The people from the job I interviewed for last Friday and had a second interview for yesterday just called and offered me the position! Finally! The Brewer is an official lawyer in New York City now. Bam!
I'm so happy I found tumblr this year.
robot-heart:
You guys make me happy. :)
Proof I Knew Basically One Jewish Person In My...
State College, PA is not the Jewish hot-spot people think it is. I think I knew approximately three Jewish people up until I was 18 or so. In any case, when I was living in Miami with my two other Penn State alumni roommates, we decided to have a party.
We were looking for some sweet Christmas lights to put up around the apt to set a nice mood. Luckily, when we were at Target, we found tons...
